Life begins at first breath. Abortion restrictions violate the 1st Amendment. Trans rights are human rights. Putin, Netanyahu, and Trump - the Axis of Evil. An #EnemyWithin

The Bible is Silent on Abortion, but Vocal about When Life Begins - TheTorah.com
Egyptian and Mesopotamian abortion-inducing recipes attest to the practice of abortion in the ancient Near East. While the Middle Assyrian Laws prohibit the practice, the Torah offers no ruling. Never...
www.thetorah.com
"the Bible does not clearly condemn abortion; it simply does not rule on it. It does, however, unequivocally demonstrate, within its own cultural constructions, that a woman’s life was considered to have more value than that of an unborn fetus, and that life begins at first breath."

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.
I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

If you think gambling is a pure good that should be expanded, you should be even more against players throwing games
ESPN's Michael Wilbon nonchalant about the federal indictments against two MLB players this morning:
"I don't care ... because at the highest levels of the pyramid in this country, of this culture, everybody's betting now."

It’s wild how MAGA falls in love with people like nepo baby developer Bill Pulte, who was born on 3rd base and thinks he hit a triple, because he investigated Schiff, then he rolls out a plan for a lifetime of debt slavery with 50-year mortgages and they are somehow surprised.
