Roe v. Wade: Where The Hell Is Nancy Pelosi?
No, she’s not completely missing in action since yesterday’s SCOTUS negation of Roe v. Wade. She has pushed out plenty of statements, tweets, and other social media posts. BUT: We have had Justice Alito’s leaked draft overturning Roe for like seven or eight weeks already. The President called for it….
National Companies Offering To Pay Costs To Send Employees Out Of State For Abortions
In the wake of yesterday’s SCOTUS decision overturning Roe v. Wade, that now allows the states to determine abortion rights in America, at least a half dozen national companies have publicly stated that they will pay to send their employees to states where abortions are legal. Silly feel good PR…

Even though Roe v. Wade established a woman’s constitutional right to a safe and legal abortion…
US vs. AL about to take on Roe vs. Wade
Alabama has passed a new bill essentially outlawing all abortions. The lawsuits will be piling up if the Republican governor signs it. I don’t know if the fact she is a woman is a firewall or not. That remains to be seen. Editor’s note: 5/15/19 5:30 PM CDT: I have…
