Any media outlet that published a headline claiming the GOP 'softened' on abortion in their new platform should be seriously embarrassed

Are clashing abortion positions about [1] WHEN human personhood & equal rights start? [2] IF a duty to cede one’s bodily right to exclude exists? IF YES, WHEN (a) does it starts? (b) ethical for govt to enforce on persons not consenting to cede their bodily right to exclude?

In other words, the Biden campaign is comparing an assassination attempt against Trump to thousands of anti-war college kids nationwide — who themselves were then met with police violence & people threatening them with rape, assaulting them, and shooting fireworks at them

I know term limits and ethics sounds "less radical" to a lot of people than court expansion. But, as I keep trying to tell you all, the Supreme Court gets to decide if term limits and ethics are constitutional. And so if you don't expand the court, these other plans will fail.

If I weave #adoption into every issue it’s because adoption lies at the center of so much we must reckon with: racism, misogyny, queerphobia, classism, religious fascism, colonialism, human rights, social welfare, personal autonomy, individual and collective liberation.

You’re going to hear a lot of “Love makes a family.” But here’s the thing: We tell adoptive parents that love is what makes a family. We tell birthparents that love just isn’t enough.
