The American version of Christianity has decided that a fetus is a person, and as such that an abortion is murder. They make it this emotional issue so that people don’t think too hard about it and just reflexively think “I can’t support murder!”

This is despite the Bible pretty explicitly defining life as beginning at the first breath, and treating causing a miscarriage as property damage.

It’s part and parcel of the Republican party essentially taking over the church and getting people to equate “Republican” with “Christian”.

No, I also felt like Harris felt she wasn’t allowed to veer too far from Biden since she was his VP, but had plans to change course more once she took over.

Unless they (somehow) get an amendment through, Musk is not eligible to be president. He wasn’t born a citizen of the US.

“President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of abandoning Israel after the incumbent said he would not supply the country with weapons it could use to invade Rafah.”

Trump wouldn’t offer even the token pushback that Biden has, and would likely ramp up the payments and weapons supplied to Israel.

When he was president before, he already massively cut aid to Gaza, and would probably do so again.

That’s how you go farther

And Trump has said he wants it to go even farther.

Always has.

It’s not that they cut any in particular, they just only included the Bill of Rights, which isn’t uncommon when pairing them with the Constitution. Not defending them, still a grift going on here, but that particular detail isn’t as nefarious as some people want to think. At least, not on its own.

I believe this depends on the state/local laws.

Many people do, but not everyone. Religious people especially tend not to cohabitate before marriage, as that would be considered a sin.

No, that’s the point of a dog whistle. Those in the know understand, and they don’t want outsiders to notice. One of the best ways to combat these people is to let everyone in on their “secret” codes, so we can see exactly who is putting their hat in with the Nazis.

The only reason this happens is because our system is so weird. In every other country, funding is automatic and doesn’t need to be authorized separately. The fix is to switch to a similar setup. Of course, that will never happen, as it would take away this bludgeon the GOP uses to try to get its way.

I remember in 2015 there were images circulating after a debate claiming Hillary Clinton was wearing an earpiece, despite the pictures used as proof clearly being from a different event.

It’s because it was from Davis. He interrupted her constantly, including times when she was about to tell him it was his turn to talk. He didn’t interrupt Muir almost at all.

I’ll leave the reason why he interrupted one and not the other as an exercise for the reader.

No, he was saying that she “put out a statement” about her racial identity.

He dodged every question and shoehorned in “the border” for all of them.

That’s the way we do things lads, we’re making shit up as we wish!

Every one of those companies would probably be doing better without his involvement, so that might be a positive for them…

Who didn’t have an election?

I suppose I shouldn’t be looking for meaning in anything he says.

Probably not an issue with the bot itself, but just FYI, it appears the spoiler tags don’t work on Boost.

Not only that, but according to the Bible, life begins at the first breath taken after birth. Also according to the Bible, the punishment for injuring a woman and causing her to miscarry is the same as for loss of property, which is dramatically different from the punishment for murder.

Kinda takes the wind out of the “abortion is murder” argument, from a biblical perspective, at least.
