#1 In the old days at least they were bought and sold by other Americans.

#2 "They were being raised to 'help stop MAGA Republicans who want to pass a national abortion ban from gaining control of Congress'"

What bull shit (on multiple levels). Like some DCCC chump is going to go to Paris over that issue.

Of course, the Dems had 49 years to legislate something (as did the GOP)...nada, so now it's a "big issue" on Capitol Hill. Get the f*** outta here.

#5 I haven't heard anyone on the Republican side calling for a national abortion ban. But Democrats in Colorado mailed voter registration forms to 30,000 foreign nationals. When caught they claimed it was a computer error. I wonder how many of those 30,000 have registered to vote.

#6 including voting absentee and giving money to candidates.

So:

The French Laundry.

They pay in Hryvnia?

#7 I think most Republicans understand that abortion is an issue that should be delegated to the states, even if states like California will murder babies right up until birth or even later. It's Democrats who want federal law to codify Roe v Wade.

#8 Deacon, Lindsey Graham introduced the abortion bill at a time when a report on inflation was raging higher in the news. With elections coming up instead of going on the offensive talking about high prices at the gas pumps and grocery stores he went on the defense with abortion. This after getting abortion back to the states. Not happy with LG.
Not happy with Colorado sending out 30,000 voter registrations to foreign nationals either. Not sure if those registrations can be identified and stricken?

#9 Jan only after 15 weeks with certain exceptions. Not a total ban.

#10 DB, yes you're right. I was just remembering how Lindsay Graham pushed his Bill after the successful verdict taking it back to the states. He gave the Libs ammunition and I haven't been too happy with him
