Ah yes, the party of 'keep the government out of my business!' is all for sticking their noses into other people's business. Fucking hypocrites.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Hey now that’s not really fair. They’re also traitors to democracy.
With business they mean their corporate businesses.
And rich people's private business.
How the hell do republican women even exist not to mention all the republican women in government. Does none of these affect them or are they always pregnant?
Some are white and wealthy enough that the rules don't apply. Some are in abusive relationships and feel forced to vote a certain way. Some are in traditional marriages where the husband controls everything, especially what's on TV and see nothing but Fox news. Some are older and in social circles that completely avoids politics, so they just vote how husband says to vote. Some are incredibly religious and only vote the way the pastor says, because they truly think God wants that.
Abortion is wrong but if I needed one then mine is ethical because I had a good reason. /s
Republican women are no different than Republicans generally: they think the rules are for everyone else.
They aren't going to be affected because they are special. And Christian. After all, God is behind them!
See, if brown and/or poor people would just accept JEBUS into their hearts, they too would know the love that a child would provide! God only hurts sluts. He would never do that to a god fearing woman.
God is behind all of us. He's just non-consensually railing us day in and day out. I for one don't appreciate that dick.
They must simply lack all critical thinking skills, and be so brainwashed that they really believe God wants it this way...
The right wing media machine, coupled with poor education
Republicans: We need a federal database to track pregnant women!
Republicans: Putting gun owners into a federal database is a violation of personal freedoms!
Making sense isn't their thing
People are freaking out about the database thing but check out the zinger on the last 3 pages of the 23 page bill.
It looks like this law would allow a woman to accuse any man of being the father of her unborn child, force immediate child support payments while she's pregnant, and the accused man would not be able to question or confirm he is the father with a paternity test.
‘‘(35) provide that the State will establish and13 enforce child support obligations of the biological fa-14 ther of an unborn child (and subsequent to the birth15 of the child) to the mother of such child provided16 that—"
(skipping unrelated sections A-D then comes section E)
"‘(E) any measure to establish the pater-9 nity of a child (born or unborn) shall not be re-10 quired without the consent of the mother; and"
Haha so they never had any intention at all of passing it.
Seriously crazy.
This is horrible, thank you for the share.
Patriarchy negatively impacts men and women.
Your local politicians should start having a lot of children right now.
I guess a lot of billionaires will be on the hook for child support if this passes.
They want the health records of trans people as well. They want to make lists of people, so they know who to prosecute when they make being on the lists illegal.
I think they have worse things than prosecution in mind for trans people. We are talking about fascists here.
Yes but who will they come for first? I wonder if it will be a similar order to last time.
It’s a completely normal idea. /s
Small government, not interfering with people's freedoms, just as they always preach.
Remember how much gaslighting the fascist party was doing about this just about 2 years ago?
The Government of Putin can shove their agenda up their damn a-hole.
The hell is wrong with republicans, can they stop being dumb for once?
You mean evil
And no, they can't stop
You’d think this was something new.
Government Databases are BAD! UNLESS it's a database putting a target on my Daughter's back! That's OK!
They want to keep track of those future soldiers!
All you have to do is glance at the crusader pendant around this zealots neck, to know she will kill for "the will of God" who she pretends has personally spoken to her. Any person claiming to know, or act on the "will of God" is a fraud.
That seems pretty messed up.
Time to add username "Tab Comma Return" to their database.
Yeah, it’s called every pregnant woman’s blood draw sample for testing gestational diabetes. Not to mention all of the other blood draws. Does she believe that DOJ isn’t sent dna off of nearly every blood draw that doctors, and hospitals, make? Considering how many surnames and faces repeat in politics, I bet the feds all keep track of who is breeding so well, that they can predict when the next baby will be born to which family. The only ones they probably can’t forecast, after so many decades of watching families breed in this country, are the migrants that cross the border while pregnant.
I don’t work in the lab but I guarantee where I work, none of our samples go to the government lol
