If you outlaw abortions, ban mask mandates, dictate what educators can teach in schools, and stop people from voting, safe to say you're not the party of limited government...

@rbreich Republicans are only small government when it comes to big business. For everyone else: they want a huge intrusive government regulating all aspects of our private lives.

We know the R party is composed of liars who want a de-federalized collection of theocratic states.

What are we going to do about it?

@rbreich who outlawed abortions? Not Desantis, he actually passed a law that protects abortions up to 15 weeks no excuse needed. Yes, the Bishops are not happy about it. Dont fall into the perspective they want you to see.

@terricampbell
Oh, dear.

You can’t get an amniocentesis done until *after* 15 weeks. If you don’t know about that side of things, and what it means for women, please sit this out.😒

Also note that “15 weeks” is a lie. Pregnancy weeks are calculated from the date of a woman’s last period, so “15 weeks” is really only 12-13 weeks from the time conception occurred.😑

Show threadCentury1956Dec 31, 2022
@Robespierrette Yes dear, then if the amniocentesis is troubling then you can get an abortion in FL. Need a doctor. Anyway you look at things DeSantis left the door open to get an abortion, those cardinals must be fuming at this Republican, when they really want a zero tolerance for abortion out of republicans.

@terricampbell @rbreich An 15 weeks is often before a person learns they are pregnant. It's not "protecting abortion" if you are not permitted to have one at any point. #ProChoice

@Beelzebabe667 @rbreich Sorry folks it is still not on point. DeSantis signed a law allowing abortion and he portends to be a crusader of antiabortion by throwing in a restriction when other Republican governors are setting restrictions at week ZERO. Desantis is a hypocrite. The opposition is too blind to see the issue and call him out on it. So he gets away with it.

@rbreich At this point I don't know why they care about the 2nd Amendment at all. If you're willing to give up every right except that one, what do you even need the guns to protect you from anymore?

@rbreich unfortunately it’s the concessions that they feel they must take to hold on to power. Our electoral college system promotes placating to 25-35% of the electorate. Just add Jill Stein.

@rbreich The media made up the term #MAGA and #Trumpism to describe a violent brand of #Republicans who increasingly see the government as a means of power to impose their #WhiteChristianNationalism ideology and #democracy as an impediment to that power.

@rbreich We all know it’s just a pithy slogan that sounds good to the base. Conservatives really only want two things:
