The problem with allowing guns everywhere is that no one is safe anywhere.

IF @sagaftra strike is a go and the press want to cover us in good faith, they must be willing to let go of their Enamor With Celebrity and speak to some of the 65k working class actors who authorized it and whose unity is the only thing keeping us from being trampled by AMPTP

Thank you @irin for clarifying on @KatyOnMSNBC that the only germane question at hand is who gets to make that choice. #abortionrights #bodilyautonomy #reprorights #dignity @AIsForOrg

You understand, don’t you, that a government that can outlaw abortion, can also mandate it. If you vote to give this decision to the government — rather than to yourself — don’t be surprised when they make a choice you don’t like.

I hope everyone is having a lovely day, celebrating their mothers and other caregivers, and also keeping in mind that not every woman wants to be, or should be, a parent. It is repugnant and immoral for the State to force either pregnancy or parenthood on any person. @AIsForOrg

At six weeks’ gestation, there is no heart, there is no heartbeat, and there is no fetus. Instead, there is a ‘fetal pole-’ a thick area along the yolk sac that extends from one end of an embryo to the other. What can be measured at six weeks is electrical activity in that pole.

Self-managing an abortion? Mifepristone and misoprostol can be used together during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Misoprostol can also be used on its own.  🎨 by Arwen Donahue for We Testify

If Alito’s majority destroys the right to privacy, states could jail women and doctors for abortion and contraception offenses. They could also COMPEL women to be sterilized for “unfitness” to reproduce, as Virginia sterilized thousands in the last century. See Buck v. Bell.

Also obviously: everything is on the table and clearly has been. Voting rights were gutted in 2013. Marriage equality. Griswold. Loving. Don’t ever listen to anyone who tells you such fears are silly or overblown.

This is the number to Judge Samuel Alito's office (and the rest of SCOTUS) 202-479-3000. You can give a call tomorrow and leave your thoughts. Better call your reps and email too. Prob also tell the White House they need to stack the court and end the filibuster. 202-456-1111

50 senators could preempt this decision tomorrow by ending the filibuster and enacting the Women's Health Protection Act.

Can confirm this. He was searching twitter for his name, this was right after his exchange with Chairman Durbin.

Ted Cruz looks like he’s checking his mentions after his back and forths with KBJ and Durbin. He’s had his head down during all of Coons’ testimony, even as Sasse and Tillis are clearly listening to their Democratic colleague and the nominee before them

Religions do not all have the same view on when the soul enters the body, but we finally cracked the code on when the soul leaves the body.
