Rep. Katie Porter says she feels frustration, anger and disappointment over the looming decision to overturn Roe v. Wade as she thinks also about the “long-term economic consequences” of women no longer being in control of their own healthcare. The issues of inflation and abortion rights, she says, are linked and “reinforce for people just how big of a responsibility it is to take care of a family.”

But don't worry, it has nothing to do with spending. it's the war in Ukraine that we need to send $40 billion for (more than the DHS annual budget)
“The bass majority of the, of the eh er uh economists think this is gonna be a tough problem to solve. But it's not because of spending.”
I watched "2000 Mules" and the publicly-available geotracking of people that visited more than 10 ballot boxes as well as the organizations that coordinated ballot harvesting is compelling, to say the least. That six states stopped counting ballots all at once at 2am for the first time in the history of voting--and also went from "Trump is winning" to "Biden is winning" overnight also tells me that our system is rigged.
Yup. My truck is at 1/2 tank, and I'm planning to top it off today. Will probably take two card swipes. My NB street car took almost $50 last week.

Will probably avoid Arches, and head towards Canyonlands, Dead Horse, etc. Planning to be pretty much off-grid the whole time. (no hookups, etc.)
While I expect to encounter relatively few people, it seems reasonable to assume that some of those whom I cannot avoid will have political opinions which differ from my own, while others will be of a similar mindset.
Even leftists go camping.
Still working on the specifics. Broadly speaking, spending a week in the Moab region.

This was one of the very few non-pornographic images I came up with on a web search for "lesbian RV camping."
I have no idea what Peter Thiel has to do with it.
But since lesbian campers clearly isn't your thing, we'll go back to basics with a picture of a cat:
This cat is strongly in support of H.R.3755, aka the Women's Health Protection Act, which, rather puzzlingly, states that governments may not limit "a health care provider’s ability to provide abortion services via telemedicine."
What I want to know is how you perform an abortion over the phone or via Zoom / Facetime / etc.
That would be impressive.
