Jess Piper reports – from the ground in rural Missouri and Arkansas – about how, since it knows it cannot win fair and square, the Republican party is resorting to tricks, subterfuge, and outright lies to try to impose its minority position on abortion on the majority who believe that abortion should not be made illegal.
She recently went to a Democratic rally in Arkansas, and encountered a woman handing out cards with QR code.

Get this clearly, Florida women have just lost their rights to make their own choices about their reproductive healthcare.
In the year 2024, Female citizens are losing their rights.
All over the country,
Women are losing their rights.
The republicans have lost their minds, saying they don't want "big government" then they go massive and subtract the rights of taxpaying citizens.
Lost their minds.
Women, boycott republicans, if you know what I mean. They want to force their offspring on us. Be aware.
An #Idaho lawsuit before the #SupremeCourt is challenging #EMTALA, the federal law requiring #hospitals to do "whatever they can to stabilize whoever comes through their ER doors with a medical emergency."
This has profound implications for #abortion care, and for this week's Amicus podcast, Dahlia Lithwick interviewed Dr. Dara Kass, an ER physician, about what's at stake.
The #AmericanTaliban members of the AZ Supreme Court ruled it's pre-Civil War, pre-statehood, pre-women can vote law that bans abortion & will send doctors & anyone that helps to jail, can go into effect
Republican lawmakers and candidates for Congress are scrambling to create distance between themselves and an Arizona Supreme Court ruling on Tuesday upholding a near-total ban on abortion in the state.

I find it pretty hilarious that #Christians claim to be #Prolife on christian grounds when the #bible explicity tells people that not only abortions are ok, but actively tells you that you SHOULD have abortions (under certain circumstances).
Dont take my word for it, the bible is pretty clear about this.
If she has made herself impure and been unfaithful to her husband, this will be the result: When she is made to drink the water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering, it will enter her, her abdomen will swell and her womb will miscarry, and she will become a curse. – Numbers 5:24-27
also not quite as direct but still pretty damn suggestive:
Cursed be the day on which I was born! … Cursed be the man who … did not kill me in the womb. – Jeremiah 20:14-17
and the penalty for violently hurting a woman causing a miscarriage is just a fine, but killing the woman is death, almost as if the lives arent equal…
When people […] injure a pregnant woman so that there is a miscarriage, and yet no further harm follows, the one responsible shall be fined […]. If any harm follows, then you shall give life for life. – Exodus 21:22-25
