    No. Fuck off with that. Not every abortion is about trauma and tragedy and using that framing plays into the christofascist’s hands. Women are humans. Humans have bodily autonomy. Ergo, women have b

Though I think you could offer insight into where that deal with the devil lies for you, personally, I know you won’t/can’t be so intellectually honest. I imagine giving up any freedom, abortion excepted, of course, and I speak of the right to privacy,  would rankle someone who otherwise considers themself a patriot. And the demonization of immigrants ought make a Christian’s skin crawl. But, for you, Ana, the wholesale deepthroating of stupidity, as in utter rejection of fact, has to be anathema. 
 

You don’t reject facts you don’t like, you ignore them. Oh, and deflect.

Missouri Supreme Court orders attorney general to let abortion ballot initiative go forward

https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/4110105-missouri-supreme-court-orders-attorney-general-to-let-abortion-ballot-initiative-go-forward/

 

 

Missouri’s ballot initiative to legalize abortion will be allowed to move forward after the state Supreme Court ruled the state’s attorney general was improperly stonewalling the effort.

The court ruled unanimously Thursday that Attorney General Andrew Bailey (R) was using “misleading” and “incorrect” arguments to justify delaying his approval of the cost estimates ballot measure that would allow residents to vote on whether to legalize abortion, a crucial step in the certification process.

Sure, let's all hop on board that train. 

While we conveniently turn a blind eye to the conditions that led to it. The more we can demonize young desperate women the less likely we will address the anti-Roe/anti-women's health issues. Kind of an old testament, GOP mentality, imo.

Supreme Court

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/06/24/contraception-supreme-court-clarence-thomas-griswold/

Quote

Clarence Thomas wrote on Friday that striking down Roe v. Wade should also open up the high court to review other precedents that may be deemed “demonstrably erroneous.”

Among those, Thomas wrote, was the right for married couples to buy and use contraception without government restriction, from the landmark 1965 ruling in Griswold v. Connecticut.

“In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell,” Thomas wrote on Page 119 of the opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health, also referring to the rulings that legalized same-sex relationships and marriage equality, respectively. “Because any substantive due process decision is ‘demonstrably erroneous’ … we have a duty to ‘correct the error’ established in those precedents.”

A landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling that protects married couples' ability to obtain and use birth control is "constitutionally unsound," according to Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn.

 

US House

Quote

The House passed the Right to Contraception Act on Thursday ― a bill that codifies the right to birth control and other contraceptives amid fears that the Supreme Court may come for that aspect of reproductive health care next after the high court repealed Roe v. Wade’s protection of abortion rights last month. 

The bill passed despite 195 Republicans who voted against the bill in a final vote of 228 to 195. Republicans who voted against the legislation included Reps. Matt Gaetz (Fla.), Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Jack Bergman (Mich.) and Joe Wilson (S.C.). Just eight Republicans voted in favor of the bill.

 

US Senators

Quote

Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) on Wednesday blocked a unanimous consent request to pass legislation that would have created a federal right to birth control use. 

Driving the news: Democrats moved to pass the bill through unanimous consent — meaning the bill would have been deemed passed had no one objected —in response to Justice Clarence Thomas' concurring opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, in which he said the Supreme Court should reconsider its precedents that protect access to contraceptives.

The House passed companion legislation last week.

Details: The bill, known as the Right to Contraception Act and introduced by Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.), would have protected "a person's ability to access contraceptives and ... a health care provider's ability to provide contraceptives" under federal law.

https://www.cleveland.com/news/2022/07/ohio-state-representative-says-she-would-consider-banning-birth-control-following-abortion-outlaw.html

Fuck that cunt. She also sponsored a bill that would ban abortion from the moment of conception.

Here in Ohio they just recently banned August elections because of the cost and the low turnout. Then opponents of the abortion ban petitioned to put a pro-choice amendment on the ballot this November. So the Republicans are holding an August vote on one issue, to raise the threshold for a constitutional amendment from a simple majority vote, the way it’s been for over 100 years, to a 60% majority. Not coincidentally, polling shows that 58% of Ohioans support the amendment. (Prior amendments that passed with a simple majority but failed to meet the 60% threshold included bans on blacks and women in the Ohio National Guard which were both overturned in the 1950’s.)

Apparently there’s been a record turnout of voters based on early voting results. I dropped off my absentee ballot yesterday at election HQ and there was a long line of people outside waiting to vote. (I didn’t take a pic). So what have Ohio Republicans done now? They’ve sued to try to remove the amendment issue from the November ballot because they know they’re likely going to lose.

https://www.cleveland.com/news/2023/07/lawsuit-asks-ohio-supreme-court-to-block-abortion-rights-measure-from-november-ballot.html

Fuck all Republicans and fuck the Ohio GOP in particular. This August election is bullshit.  Fuck them and their stupid games. They’re trying to slip one by the people when no one’s looking but I don’t think they’re going to get away with it. Not that it’s an indicator but all the signs I see in people’s lawns and windows say “Vote No on Issue 1!”

They said there’s a shortage of poll workers and put out a request for volunteers. So I answered the call. I’ve never done it before and I’ll probably never do it again. It’s going to be a hassle but I volunteered. I had training yesterday (why I had to go to election HQ) and I have to be at my polling station at 5:30 am on Tuesday (and work until after 7:30 pm), not counting setup the night before. But fuck the Republicans, I’m going to do my part to help make their bullshit special election work for the people. Hopefully it will turn more people off from the Republican Party in general.

He can’t legally. He has to remain publicly and politically relevant or they’re going to pull his throat through his spinal column so in a weird way I can’t fault him.  

Tomorrow Ohio has a statewide vote on whether to increase the threshold to 60% for state amendments to Constitution. It has always been a simple majority for over the last 100 years. The legislature last year moved away from August votes because of low turnout, but included this one.

This is to combat a later vote on whether women have a right to abortion in Ohio on the November ballot. Turnout has been gubernatorial level according to media outlets in the state.

Yep. This will be very telling as to how many people in Ohio are paying attention. I feel it will be  a big turnout.
