From a friend…
If anyone wonders why you or I are liberal Democrats show them this post.
Women: "Can I have birth control?"
Republican Controlled Congress: "No."
Women: "I couldn't get birth control so I got pregnant.
Can I have an abortion?"
Republican Controlled Congress: "No."
Women: "You prevented me from having an abortion so I'm carrying the fetus, but my employer won't provide reasonable accommodations and is threatening to fire me.
Would you please pass the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act?"
Republican Controlled Congress: "No"
Women: "I had the baby, but I'm out of work.
Can I have WIC and food stamps until I get back on my feet?"
Republican Controlled Congress: "No."
Women: "I found a job, but it doesn't offer me insurance.
Can I have government guaranteed insurance?"
Republican Controlled Congress: "No."
Women: "My kid got sick and I got fired because I missed time caring for him/her.
Can I get unemployment?"
Republican Controlled Congress: "No."
Women: "I'm having a hard time getting my kid from school consistently.
Can we fund after-school programs?"
Republican Controlled Congress: "No."
Women: "I'm prepared to work to support my family.
Can you make sure that a full-time job's minimum wage is enough to do that?"
Republican Controlled Congress: "No.
But what's the matter with you and your family, that working two jobs can't lift you out of poverty?
And what kind of a mother are you, letting someone else watch your child while you work?
If your child doesn't do well in school or gets in trouble, it's entirely your fault.
You shouldn't have had a child if you weren't prepared to take care of him/her."

🚨🚨🚨 It’s not a leap from “grab them by the p*ssy” to the Cornell “Free p*ssy” chat. In just years. The rapists were just 10 years old when they first heard that from a future president and laughed at it.
I don’t care if that girl snorted coke with one nostril, meth with the other, injected heroin, ate a mushroom, smoked a joint, and did a keg stand booty butt naked in front of the entire frat house—she did not deserve to be assaulted.
Hey men, pro tip: If someone ever sends you a text offering up a drugged woman for your pleasure, and your immediate response isn't to call the police, you're complicit, and you're a POS.
The man who sent “free p*ssy” to the group chat was on a pre-med track. He was going to be a doctor when he sees half the human race as glorified fleshlights.
And if that single fact doesn’t highlight for you how violence against women becomes a systemic societal issue, I don’t know what to tell you.
@JamesEsses So you speak on behalf of all Jewish people, and Israel for bombing children and women? You are claiming this responsibility on behalf of the Jewish people? Seems like an easy segue for Nazis to use you (all) as a scapegoat.
Fuck Israel. Free Palestine.
