If our country started treating parenthood as the blessing that it is rather than a burden on companies, then people might start having more kids or having kids at all. No official paid maternity leave and insane childcare costs make it really tough to be a parent
@RollingStone
It’s really kinda pathetic. They are a tiny fraction of the population. Why does she care so much? How does them living their lives impact her in any way?
@Liberacrat
@WhiteHouse
Only if you are a very basic-level thinker. Senators have to be re elected every six years. Extremely different from a SCOTUS justice, who is never elected, and is appointed for life. Especially when appointed by a President who LOST the popular vote
@JillFilipovic
Forced them to go through months and months of prolonged grief so that they could deliver full term, only to die within a few hours after birth. Utterly sick and cruel

No he called the cops on her dad because her dad threatened violence on him if he did anything more and he wanted a record of it 🤦♀️
@DoomScroling
If they actually believed this, then red states wouldn’t have such horrible health outcomes for women because they would use all their billions to improve their situation and make motherhood something that is supported
@chrislhayes
And all these anti choicers are claiming that he is lying. Please make this national news. I am sick of these hateful people continuing to deny what is actively happening in states like Texas
@highbrow_nobrow
If that were true, it could be easily removed and be just fine. But it isn’t, so, yeah, it IS her body. Every part of her body is being impacted by a fetus. That’s not something that someone should be forced into doing
@ask_aubry
That sounds like such an utterly horrible life for his partner. So she gets nothing but the basics and doesn’t get to have any friends or life outside of the home. The fact that he would outright admit that really shows that men have a serious problem
@AP
This will go down as the worst SCOTUS in history. Outright corruption and no accountability. And all because an unpopular President collaborated with a bunch of cheating Senators
@BeschlossDC
I don’t understand how it wouldn’t be necessary. Weren’t the majority of his crimes in this case committed BEFORE he became President? And that has nothing to do with official acts. Seriously WTF

In the state of Texas, if you have sex at 13, that is an automatic CPS report because 13 year olds shouldn’t be having sex and if they are then their parents are neglecting them. Because THEY ARE CHILDREN. Your boyfriend was a pervert and he still is

@TizzyEnt
He literally said that women have been “diabolically lied to.” Diabolical means of the DEVIL. Stop trying to gaslight everyone into thinking what he said wasn’t profoundly offensive
@ask_aubry
Imagine being so far removed from your own humanity that you support the procreative rights of a rapist more than the right of a woman to not have to raise the product of a rape

That’s such a cop out. What a lame response. FYI, rando on Twitter - detecting sarcasm is based on TONE OF VOICE, facial expression and also someone’s knowledge of the other person. You’re a rando trolling a stranger on Twitter and you failed so you are trying to backpedal

The deep state was here all along, but it was REPUBLICAN. Which I used to say way back when because there was no way it was Dems since republicans were the exact kinds of people who would be into being in the deep state

You have no idea if the kid was harmed or not. Male victims have spoken out about how much what happened to them fucked up their lives. Shame on you

It’s all love? The GOP is literally calling trans and gay people groomers all the time. They are the definition of hate. She is just a pathetic opportunist
@DeificDragon
@antifaoperative
Yeah, well if you’re against abortion, you shouldn’t have an abortion. But that didn’t work because the GOP jumps at any opportunity to treat women like crap
@kylegriffin1
She also said that she doesn’t often talk to politicians because they use her story for clout and rarely do anything. Katie Britt is a piece of work
@xthe_goodz
@anactualwalnut
You are the losing side. You won the current battle by cheating with Donald Trump and SCOTUS to pick an extremely unrepresentative SCOTUS filled with shills who lied under oath to get appointed. But every time that abortion rights are on the ballot, abortion rights win
@AshaRangappa_
What he did on January 6th was NOT official, and was definitely outside the scope of his position as President. So it’s an asinine claim in the first place

But you can’t control what your kids choose to do with their own bodies. They might choose to have sex before marriage, they might choose to have sex with someone who has been sexually active with someone else. Don’t you want to protect them or do you just want to punish them?
@ElieNYC
Insane that they would be penalizing people for sleeping in their CARS. Those people especially aren’t bothering anyone. They are just trying to survive!

I once spoke to a limo driver in New York - he was waiting for Hugh Jackman when he was in The Man from Oz musical ages ago. I think I asked him if he had dealt with any celebrities who were rude and he said Jennifer Lopez.

Republicans, UNFORTUNATELY, are in charge of pretty much everything in Texas. As in, the “party of small government” constantly interferes in local blue government
@JessicaValenti
I don’t understand why they are doing this. Do they not understand the real life ramifications of their actions?! 10 years ago, Todd Aiken lost his senate race over “legitimate rape” comments. Now they are making it a huge part of their platform.

@JamesBradleyCA
He has WAY MORE in common with Dahmer and Bundy than Oprah or Stacey Abrams. You know those Republicans are constantly projecting that which is true of themselves onto others

Thank you for sharing this. I am so tired of people dismissing this as an issue. And it enrages me when guys (it is always guys) say things like “where was this teacher when I was a kid?”

YOUR body does nothing. YOUR body doesn’t bring life, so YOU don’t get to make that choice for those of us whose bodies create life. WE are the ones whose bodies and lives are at risk while gestating, therefore yes, it is OUR choice
@ask_aubry
Everyone pointed out to this loser that there is no way that pro choice women are getting to that point because we have a filter that would presumably weed out a misogynistic pile of crap. He never denied that this is just a fantasy he jacks off to rather than reality

It literally is, unless you think that the literal experts in pregnancy, aka OBSTETRICIANS, know less than you. Bet you have a high school education
@DoomScroling
Even for women who do regret getting abortions, I would much rather someone regret their abortion than regret having children. Because a person who regrets their abortion can usually just get pregnant again, but you can’t unmake children
@davenewworld_2
The fact that they are literally choosing pharmaceutical companies over their own constituents is just the absolute grossest thing in the world. So unethical and wrong
@ElieNYC
I work with obstetricians. I told one of them about her claim about OBs being upset about having to go and treat patients with complications and she said “no, that’s part of our job. That’s what we do.” I am sick of all the damn lies
@mmpadellan
They should now move to the GOP way that people can sue someone carrying a gun and get a bounty on them of $10,000, paid by the gun manufacturing industry
@Acyn
I want cameras in the court room because I think that the American people are entitled to see this in real time. I don’t know why we can’t see it but if it were allowed I am positive Trump’s lawyers wouldn’t want it to be televised
@AmandaMarcotte
@GlennKesslerWP
If it is so rare, then they could have made exceptions for children. But they conscientiously CHOSE not to exempt children from the bans. So their attempts to dismiss those cases due to “rarity” end up revealing themselves for “no, we are actually that cruel that we don’t care.”

What’s wrong with that? Are you serious? You must be independently wealthy because most families can’t just depend on one income. And you see tons of examples of what happens to homemakers when their husbands betray them. You can’t just have no backup plan

@OrchardMarie93
Anti choicers talk about birth control yet continue to vote for the party that is literally trying to limit birth control coverage. You don’t get to be a hypocrite like that - that’s not how life works.

Sick and tired of of these old guys waxing poetic on how it used to be when those of us who are impacted by their decisions know that it isn’t that way anymore
