    Do not buy into the lies that we do not know who Kamala is or what she stands for.

    That is the big issue for the left. They know who Kamala is and what she stands for, while you get libs saying that she is representing something else. I know that the people they are targeting are the ones who think Kamala is going to somehow instate a matriarchy while she is a right wing lib, but it is still galling to use this framing while we've been jerked around for over a year with fake ceasefire talks.

    As to why Roe v Wade wasn't codified wonder-who-thats-for

    Maybe should have talked to your fucking husband first

    At a news conference marking his first 100 days in office, President Barack Obama answered a question about the Freedom of Choice Act, a law that affirms abortion rights.

    "As a candidate, you vowed that one of the very first things you wanted to do was sign the Freedom of Choice Act," the reporter said. "Do you still hope that Congress quickly sends you the Freedom of Choice Act so you can sign it?"

    "Now, the Freedom of Choice Act is not my highest legislative priority," Obama concluded. "I believe that women should have the right to choose, but I think that the most important thing we can do to tamp down some of the anger surrounding this issue is to focus on those areas that we can agree on. And that's where I'm going to focus."

    What gets me is that everything he said was unnecessary - he never had to say it wasn't his highest priority, or to suggest the best approach to abortion rights is some sort of fucking bipartisan deal with the Republicans.

    He could have just said "Uh, let me be clear, abortion rights are a priority and I look forward to seeing a bill from Congress on my desk"

    Michelle Obama is not without enemies, however those enemies are also not being supplied with F-35s and 2000lb Mk-84 bombs with which to target her

    So she's going to push nationwide abortion rights, right? Offer an actual alternative rather than "I won't do that"

      He could, and still can, legally just fucking kill the scotus, all of focus on the family, joe manchin, and whoever else he wants, whenever he wants, with 0 oversight. His powers are not legally limited in any meaningful way.
