Perhaps more than any other woman, Marjorie Dannenfelser is responsible for the fall of Roe vs. Wade.
The president of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, a nonprofit group that works to end abortion in the United States by electing antiabortion politicians, Dannenfelser has dedicated her adult life to outlawing abortion. In 2016, she played a key role in getting President Trump to commit to appoint U.S. Supreme Court justices who oppose abortion.

After decades working in antiabortion politics, you are watching Roe vs. Wade fall. In what sense is this a historic moment?
Its the culmination of almost 50 years of work. There was no certainty that this moment would come at all. But every single time there's a failure or a setback, this movement has grown. And that is a marker of an authentic human rights movement: It draws more in difficulty than it does in success sometimes.

Where women have fewer rights than their mothers and theirmother's mothers, and their mother's mothers.
Genesis speaks at length about the breath of life. Not once about the uterine wall or "moment of fertilization."
Breath of life = birth day.
Last breath of life = death day.
We don't send happy dad fucked mom day cards. We don't mark death as the moment the corpse decomposes, either.
If we can just keep the women in line...

We will be the graveyard for her ambitions. Let her spend the rest of her pathetic life trying to win over CA. Idiot.
