"If your party has a faction of people who believe Democrats eat children and worship Satan, that makes it a lot easier for people to buy that Democrats stole the election."

I wrote about how the media is failing covering roe in ⁦@TheAtlantic⁩ newsletters.theatlantic.com/wait-what/61af…
"In late August I was talking to a smart liberal lawyer friend on the phone and I said, “I’m really worried about this Texas bill S.B. 8.”

“No way they’ll let it go into effect,” she replied. I was heartened by her words."

Much of the coverage that’s not outright cynical is also failing to meet the moment. The NY Times published a map that shows a “predicted decline in legal abortions.” Antiseptic language like that does not serve the reader.

“Mississippi’s case is the greatest threat to abortion rights and puts women’s health and lives on the line, with women of color and Latinas suffering the most. The need to protect women’s right to abortion has never been clearer." @RepSylviaGarcia

Texas law doesn't allow for abortion in the case of rape or incest-leading Dr. Ingrid Skop of the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists to defend forcing a (hypothetical) 9-year-old to carry and deliver her rapist’s child.
