1. Appalling

That we are seeing more and more laws on the books now granting more rights to a fetus than to the mother. This really makes my blood boil. I’m convinced that these so-called “pro-lifers” don’t care one whit about the unborn. They are just misogynists in the extreme who delight in punishing women for any reason. It’s truly sickening. But this is what we get when we keep putting Republicans in office and allowing confirmation of extremist judges.

2. And women who continue to vote Republican....

THEY are the ones who should be prosecuted for voting AGAINST their best interests.

53% of white women voted for Trump in 2016. Women still continue to vote AGAINST their best interests given thge facts where the Republican Party stands on Women.
