@klg921 @ElliotGeno @MeidasTouch@DavidPepper I agree that we had ppl who didn’t vote last election (I looked on election night to see returns etc) but we really are being held hostage. The Rs willfully ran out the clock on even LOOKING at maps with Ds. Waited until 11:45pm on night maps were due
Wow! There is currently a MASSIVE rally outside and inside the Ohio statehouse with folks wrapped around the building protesting the GOP effort to change the Ohio Constitution. This is democracy at work. (h/t @DavidPepper) https://t.co/aTcWxrvEJj
Hi @washingtonpost. “Late-term abortion” is a political term, not a medical one. It was invented to stigmatize abortions that happen later in pregnancy and to incite violence against people like Dr. Carhart, who lost several colleagues to violence. What are you doing here?
Republicans say making it harder to amend Ohio’s constitution is about keeping out-of-state special interests out of it. But the largest donor by far to a PAC that’s pushing for a vote on that is a billionaire from Illinois, and more money is coming https://t.co/MqYlLzoACr
Commentary: Ohio Republican Senate President Matt Huffman embodies the tyranny he absurdly projects on Ohio voters in the majority who believe women should have autonomy over their bodies.

This month in the US, people were shot for ringing the wrong doorbell, getting into the wrong car, using a leaf blower, delivering food to the wrong address, driving into the wrong driveway, and for asking a neighbor to stop shooting so a baby could sleep.
It’s the fucking guns.
Ohio law says sexually assaulting one's spouse is not a crime.
However, state lawmakers are working to change that. Thank you Rep. @JessicaEMiranda and @RepHillyer for introducing H.B. 161 to eliminate the spousal rape exception for sexual assault!
Laura Strietmann you are a monster.
May you reap what you sow, may every pain you inflict on another be visited upon you ten fold, may you never know peace, may all your harvests produce nothing but ash and blood.
Laura Strietmann, Cincinnati Right to Life leader, on the 10-year-old girl who was raped and went to Indiana for an abortion:
"While a pregnancy might have been difficult on a 10-year-old body, a woman's body is designed to carry life."
OH State Rep. Miranda (D) shuts her down.
@HeartlandSignal I did the math on this last year. The avg sized 10yo girl in the US carrying the average fetus to term weight is comparable to the average sized woman carry an 18 POUND BABY TO TERM! This is so fucked up.
@RankinMissi@Pwoodzy1977@JoJoFromJerz What happened for YOU didn’t happen for me.
All bodies are different & others peoples bodies and medical decisions are none of your business.
Unsuccessful GOP South Dakota state Senate candidate Joel Koskan and wife Sally adopted a little girl in 2010.
Koskan groomed and raped her for almost a decade. Sally pressured adopted daughter not to report the rapes because it was disrespectful to the family.

Commissioners of Shelby County voted 7-0 for Justin Pearson.
With the vote, Pearson joins Rep. Justin Jones, who returned to the House Monday. https://t.co/cN9thmilxD

Republicans would do what they are doing right now in Tennessee on a national scale if they had the power.
It is a fully fascist movement.
Stop covering them like a legitimate political party. Start covering them like the fascist cult they are.
@erinhahn_author @Dangamipissed They want to arm us? Arm us with quality curriculum. Arm us with enough funding to have field trips and the supplies we need. Arm us with smaller classroom sizes. Arm us with enough school counselors. Arm us with free lunches. We don’t need guns.
@Michell33650674 I saw some of the floor argument. A female lawmaker was opposed b/c they should buy their own period products.
Cause they’re not expensive at all, right? Easily affordable for everyone. 🙄
Commentary: LaRose’s political move to pull Ohio out of a national voter integrity program he just last month called "one of the best fraud-fighting tools that we have" is a victory for disinformation and a loss for election integrity.
