Massachusetts became the 7th state to end child marriage recently. Unlike New York though, this hasn't gotten nearly as much media coverage. It's a huge accomplishment that isn't getting enough notice. We have a lot of work to do to #endchildmarriage.
@BasedIllinoisan@BananaRep405@DemzDeliver Some thoughts.
1. Children can't consent with adults.
2. Legal marriage is a contract that governs stuff like assets and taxes that children are generally too immature to competently manage
3. Children can't file for divorce if their spouse becomes abusive.
@ModerateIndy Rather than the RLE, they should upgrade Metra Electric and Rock Island to have service every 15 minutes or better all day. RLE can come in the future as transit demand increases.
Netanyahu organised monthly payments of $35 million to Hamas leading up to October 7th.
An Israeli soldier testified that they received a stand down order on the morning of October 7th.
As I’ve said from day one, the Israeli government knew the attack was coming and they wanted it to happen.
They were happy to sacrifice their own so they had a reason to destroy Gaza under the guise of “self defence”.
Israel is the greatest threat to world peace.
