What The Poors don't realize is that rich women will always get abortions if needed. The doc calls it a D&C and insurance pays for it.

Speaker Johnson is the reason this is happening. He can stop it all today, but won't. The Johnson-Trump Tariffs, for example.

A nice italian beef in the juice is a soft sandwich. Very hard to throw. The bread will just fall apart. Those Subways, though, tough as nails. Bread like a chunk of pine. Chicago food is for eating, not hurling.

im gonna say children in airports might be suffering from "travel weary" and not "idiopathic mitochondrial challenges" but hey, a cursory glance is sufficient for a diagnosis from a faddist.
grumpy uncle (@grumpyuncle.bsky.social) reply parent
A cursory glance, a diagnosis, a fools mistake. At an airport. So the kids are on planes. Perhaps the simple weariness from travel is mistaken for Idiopathic mitochondrial challenges by a faddist.

The second amendment guarantees the right to a militia to guard against federal tyranny. But if a president can use that force against its own state, against the wishes of that state, then it is no militia at all and a clear violation of the second amendment.

Was slavery bad? Well slavery made white people poor. It's called the economic dead weight cost of slavery. If the Boss can get a black guy to do the work for free, how much will he pay a white guy to do it. The legacy of slavery is generational deep poverty in the white South. Yeah it was bad.

Unfortunately the Democrats have decided every day for decades to ignore violence against women, especially domestic violence. They have no history of action to stand on so whatever they do now will be dismissed as political. No tribalism will be diminished. Biden chose to protect Bill Clinton.
