So pro life, they'll make women die for it.

They are for a genocide in Gaza

They don't care that Ukraine lives are being lost

How does this group own anything that is pro life?

There is a document that they released that explains all of this, as-well-as step-by-step instruction on how they plan to take over the the government and block any other party from taking an influential portion of the government.

Here it is, GOP officials are already putting things from this document verbatim, or nearly so, into their speeches, press releases, etc.

We don't need abortion restrictions. We need conservatism restrictions.

They already know, at this point, that people hate it and it will lose them support in any fair election.

It started out as a simple wedge issue; they wanted to be able to attract a certain type of sanctimonious voter, who didn't actually agree with the issue as it pertained to their individual family and loved ones. But, they would with vocal reliability vote for it anyway, based on combined blather-value and lack of understanding of pregnancy medical care, and as part of the deal that they were probably unaware of, the politicians they supported would make sure it wouldn't actually happen and the real world consequences come to their horrible reality.

At this point, though, they know. It's explicit, probably on some vague level even to the voters, that their type of government can enact horrific cruelties on "its own people," and cannot be removed even if a clear majority of "its own people" want it to be.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Allies of former President Donald J. Trump and officials who served in his administration are planning ways to restrict abortion rights if he returns to power that would go far beyond proposals for a national ban or the laws enacted in conservative states across the country.

The New York Times reported on Friday that Mr. Trump had told advisers and allies that he liked the idea of a 16-week national abortion ban but that he wanted to wait until the Republican primary contest was over to publicly discuss his views.

Since Roe v. Wade was overturned in the Dobbs decision in 2022, many leading anti-abortion groups have pushed Mr. Trump to endorse a national abortion ban at 15 weeks of pregnancy, which they are casting as a politically moderate position.

Since he left office, some of those people have remained in Mr. Trump’s orbit, defending him in court, suggesting policy plans well beyond issues like abortion and attending events at Mar-a-Lago, his private club and residence in Florida.

Speaking at a church in Gallup, N.M., last spring, anti-abortion activists rallied the crowd to support a local ordinance that would require compliance with the Comstock Act but referred to the law solely by its statute number, 18 U.S.C.

The Comstock Act made it a federal crime to send or deliver “obscene, lewd or lascivious” material through the mail or by other carriers, specifically including items used for abortion or birth control.


The original article contains 2,001 words, the summary contains 240 words. Saved 88%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
