@nickisterrified@VanLathan Absolutely certain that there could never vote for a Democrat and absolutely unable to verbalize a single reason why when given unlimited time. Only conclusion is that they know the reason, but won't say it because it's not defensible in mixed company.
This is exactly what the Biden administration tried to fight with their EMTALA rule. The admin said that ERs have to treat and stabilize very ill women - even if treatment / stabilization requires a pregnancy termination. Texas and other states fought the law in court. Texas won.
@bex0760@donlemon When my niece was doing the online dating thing a few years back, and running into a lot of toxic men, I advised her to ask them about Joe Rogan on the first date. They were more likely to admit to it, but it was just as good a proxy for toxic beliefs as Trump support.
Holy shit! Barack Obama just reminded everyone why is is considered the preeminent orator of our generation. Obama is delivering a tour de force in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He is annihilating Trump like I've never seen before. 🙌🙏👏👊🌊
@TenPointPG@cjgproduxions And we already know their backup plan is to make mostly Black prisoners pick the fruit as actual slaves. They've done this every shortage. Somehow this is a pro black plan?
A healthy 28-year-old mom is dead. Not because doctors couldn't help her; because they refused until it was too late. Because they feared HELPING HER would land them in prison.
A young mom is dead.
A 6-year-old boy lost his mom.
"Everybody wanted this," Donald Trump told us.
"In Texas, a woman whose water broke at 18 weeks—far too early for her baby to survive outside the womb—was unable to get an abortion until she became septic. She spent three days in the ICU, and one of her fallopian tubes permanently closed from scarring. In Tennessee, a woman lost four pints of blood delivering her dead fetus in a hospital’s holding area. In Oklahoma, a bleeding woman with a nonviable pregnancy was turned away from three separate hospitals. One said she could wait in the parking lot until her condition became life-threatening." https://t.co/5kGQpcWKRA
@gartmartin9@JamesFallows He wouldn't use the same sexist word, but has no problem using the same sexist process that told him he needed a derogatory word for a presidential candidate's laugh. He used that process to conclude that Harris' campaign strategy is nothing more than "joy"
Really nuanced discussion on First Take between SAS, Domonique Foxworth and Shannon Sharpe about Tyreek Hill’s detainment video. There are some parallels between how this issue is discussed and how we discuss women and sexual assault. The burden of de-escalation and safety is placed squarely on the people who are victimized. We’re teaching Black boys and men how to not be brutalized or have their life taken by the police, when we’ve seen so many cases of Black folks complying and still being subjected to cruelty (see: Philando Castile, Sonya Massey).
The unavoidable reality is that if a police officer decides to be a problem, there is very little that can be done. Same as with sexual assault. There is no perfect playbook a woman or girl can follow so as not to be assaulted. Yes, there are precautions, but so much of the conversation is focused on teaching girls and women how not to be raped/assaulted as opposed to shifting the conversation so as to not enable predators.
The burden of responsibility will only change with increased accountability on the people who commit these offenses.
@Roota_2DaToota @jermainedupri@loveandhatela I guess Ice Cube tagged him in this year. Time for Dupri to announce the Platinum plan 2 in collaboration with Kushner?
@TornadoScrappy @RiverTamYDN It's funny. I didn't even know Walz had 24 years of military service until they pointed it out, along with some easily disprovable smears. To anyone not in the bubble Walz just looks better.
@tify330 Pelosi has usually had excellent instincts, and it's really hard to believe that she thought an open convention and uncertainty about the nominee for weeks would have been a good thing.
@bbleepcun1960@What46HasDone I am certain that he knew there was no coming back once he gave in to them. People moved on immediately for the same reason that he dropped out though he could have stayed, winning this election is more important than any one man.
