Som abortion thoughts: I teach sex ed and when I explain the menstrual cycle, I emphasize that if you are expecting your period, it’s one day late, and you take a pregnancy test, if it comes back positive, you are considered 4 weeks + 1 day into your pregnancy.
@RepValDemings @beachbirds72 Abbott also has 48 percent of the infant formula market. One other company has most of the rest. Monopolies are good for corporate profits - bad for average Americans.
Rep. Madison Cawthorn tried to smuggle a gun into an airport AGAIN
Snuck knives into a school 4 times
Repeatedly drives w/o a license
Sexually assaulted women
Lied about his accident & about getting into the Naval Academy
Politics aside, Cawthorn is truly a shitty person

Meanwhile, the average price of a gallon of gas at the pump has gone UP by 21 cents a gallon.
Yes. We need a windfall profits tax.
@AndrewDesiderio Americans: We can’t afford our rent because the minimum wage is low and we have student loans. Health care is also too expensive.
