After the Abortion Ban, What’s Next?
Here’s a short video that addresses that very issue, in which Trump-endorsed state rep. candidate Jacky Eubanks says that if it came to a vote in the MI legislature, she would vote to make birth control illegal.
“You can’t have a successful society in the absence of the Christian moral order,” she says, expressing her contempt for the United States Constitution and the many explicit statements from the Founding Fathers.
As I’m fond of saying, there must be a limit to this insanity, but I’ll be the first to admit that I have precisely zero evidence that this is correct.
Over the next few months, Madison Cawthorn’s name will fade into obscurity. That’s good news, especially given that he is a monster.
For my money, the real point to be made here isn’t that Democrats are angels, or even that the Republicans are inveterate criminals. Rather, it’s that, by the time all the justice actions against the Trump administration are taken, the 45th presidency will have all these counts shattered by an enormous margin, a record that will stand, we must hope, for all time. (Note that this chart was created in early 2019, in the middle of the Trump presidency.)
Criminally charging, trying, convicting, and incarcerating those whose actions result in mass shootings will never put an end to the epidemic of gun violence in the United States, but at least it’s a start.

I’m not sure that the complete erosion of women’s rights is a fait accompli under Republican control, but even at best, a GOP-dominant Congress is a horrible scenario for American females.
Unfortunately, social media is littered with sponsored political posts, some of which use the guise of market research to engage the reader.
As a Pennsylvanian, you don’t have to tell me that the middle part of the state is bright red, politically. Yet the Keystone State is home to Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, and is dotted with wonderful small colleges and universities in its interior: Bucknell University, Lafayette College, Penn State University, Lehigh University, Dickinson College, Franklin & Marshall College, and Gettysburg College.
I’m not sure the United States needed one more blow against reason, honesty, and human decency, but it got one nonetheless.
