It's almost like they know they are pushing shit policies that no one wants or supports

    It's pretty obvious why they're trying to get rid of and/or traffic immigrants. They want the whities having babies, another form of eugenics. I'm not a fan of this timeline.

    They did the same thing with revoking the farm bill statute allowing hemp-derived THC. It was set to go in effect a week after the election, although it got pushed back a month by a court

    I hope voters will be informed enough to see through such a basic ploy, but I fear they will not

    Trump voters aren't informed enough to stop worshipping a fascist pedophile, this isn't going to sway them either. The only thing that still might are grocery and gas prices, and I'm not counting on that either.

    Since when does the DOJ decide what to ban? Last I checked their role in government is to enforce the laws as they're written by Congress, not make new ones.

    We'll fucking take your rights! But wait, maybe let's wait a moment…

    The more of this bullshit that gets publicized before the election, the better. Some women who voted MAGA before will be swayed by this.

    Vote, vote, vote!!

    They're going to do it after the midterms regardless. Punish them NOW:

    But administration officials have also informed anti-abortion leaders, who have aggressively pressed the administration to move quickly to restrict abortion access, that any action on abortion would take place after the midterm elections, multiple sources told The Sun.

    “Once the midterms are over and it’s truly lame-duck time, we’ve heard the gloves will be off,” one conservative in touch with the administration, granted anonymity to discuss private conversations, said. “We have heard we have friends, and there are definitely people who are staunch pro-lifers.”

    The gloves aren't already off? The masks are off. Is this how they behave with gloves on?

    This was always coming.

    First mifepristone/misoprostol will be removed from pharmacies.

    Then Plan-B mysteriously disappears from shelves - the excuse will be that it shouldn’t be OTC, it requires a prescription. And those will become super ultra mega restricted. Anyone prescribing it will be scrutinized.

    Then hormonal birth control pills will be declared too dangerous - they’ll say that stroke and cardiac risks need to be “reassessed.”

    That’s their plan.

    This time it's abortion, next year it's women's voting rights. Guys, this HAS to end. This cannot keep going like this. At some point, we cannot just keep coasting by waiting for some miracle to happen. WE have to force them out by force it comes to it. This is ridiculous.

    Oh after the midterms, America is going to be absolutely locked the fuck down. There will be nothing left to lose and he will definitely make a run for martial law in preparation for his overthrowing of our government.

    This should be used in every single Democratic ad.

    I would say they could never get elected if they're honest about their intentions. But for 30% of voters apparently they can outright say half the evil shit and be loved for it.

    They spent about 50 years fighting against Roe and are not about to give up now. The 30% or so are the people that were gleeful about trigger laws in various states. They are the types that started setting up bounties for people to sue women that were traveling to other states to exercise their rights. They are the kinds of people that want to track pregnant women taking flights, etc...

    What is more vile that forcing another life to be brought into this sick world to a parent that doesn't even want it. Absolutely ludicrous.

    You can use pennyroyal, as an herb, for this purpose anyway. Just plant some this spring.

    For more middle ages solutions that kill women because the dose required to cause a miscarriage is about the same as the dose that causes organ failure, stay tuned.

    Pennyroyal used as an herb is safe. The oil will kill you. The government pulled information from the NIH online saying it was safe and replaced it with one conflating the risks of using the oil with the plant.

    A plant oil by the way, is made by distilling plants and is a thousandfold in potency, or whatever.

    But people who don't think Democrats are absolute perfect angelic specimens should totally just sit out elections to "send a message". I'm sure that is the answer.

    Yes, everything unpopular right after the elections, so people forget until it's the time to vote again.
