Let’s talk about what “with the exception for rape or incest entails. For starters, you have to file a police report. Now the female has to endure 6-8 hour rape kit, forcing her to be violated, AGAIN… But wait there’s more.
In Oklahoma, Idaho, North Dakota, Wyoming, Utah, South Carolina, Georgia, and Iowa, abortion bans with exceptions for rape and incest are either already in effect or could take effect in the near future, pending the outcome of a court case.
In Mississippi, abortion is banned with an exception for rape, but not incest. You got that… incest
In Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, South Dakota, Texas, Wisconsin, West Virginia, Tennessee, Arizona, Louisiana, Florida, and Ohio, abortion is (or will soon be) either banned or limited to a narrow gestational window with no exceptions for rape or incest.
It's also entirely possible that the investigation and legal proceedings could take longer than nine months. Only 24 percent of rapes are reported, only 9% of convictions. 1-4 women will be sexually assaulted in her life time. There are over 400,000 untested rape kits in the U.S.
And most importantly, with the exception for rape or incest means is a female has to be violated first in order for her to get rights to her own body… read that again. #VoteBlue2022 #WomensRightsAreHumanRights

I’ve never been known to hold back or sugar coat things, and I sure as shit won’t start now. Oh so you’re a democrat or liberal contemplating voting for a Republican because of inflation? Fuck you. The cost of eggs is more important than the cost of democracy? Fuck you
The cost of gas is more important than what it will cost when women lose the right to choose? Fuck you
When covid hit, Republicans were against stimulus checks, increasing SNAP benefits, expanding healthcare, pausing evictions. You know those things that help when money is tight? Fuck you.

Dear young people, now is your time to shine. If you want to live in a country where the environment is protected, vote democrats. If you want to live in a country where weed is legal, vote blue. If you want to live in a country where STEM programs,
History, facts, trade schools, higher Ed matters, vote blue. If you want to live in a country where you’re not crippled by student loan debt, vote blue.
If you want to live in a country where love is love, your gender identity is respected, vote blue. If you want to live in a country where your grandparents can afford their medications, vote blue.

Dear Republicans… When was the last time an undocumented migrant took your job? I’ll wait. Were you a teacher, librarian, bus driver, truck driver, pharmacy tech, nurse, doctor, finance director, or a sitting member of congress? I’ll wait..
When was the last time you were passed over for healthcare, SNAP, WIC, housing, or enrollment in school because of an undocumented migrant? I’ll wait.
You know the crop workers, dishwashers, the food prepares, the janitors, house keepers, nannies, nursing home aids. The jobs us spoiled entitled Americans are too good to work. The people who will do anything at a chance at a better life.. I’ll wait.

Dear Georgia, republicans are telling you proudly and publicly just how little they care about you. They don’t care that their candidate isn’t qualified to be a senator never mind the fact he’s not qualified to be a Walmart welcomer.
They don’t care that he beats women, abandons his children, lies about his education, businesses, charities, law enforcement, or that he pays for abortions.
They don’t care that he can’t form a coherent thought or sentence. They don’t care that he only invokes God’s name when it’s convenient.

20,000 active duty military families receive SNAP benefits. 1.2 million veterans receive SNAP benefits. Every year, Republicans vote to defund SNAP. Outraged?
3.6 million military children receive Medicaid benefits. One in 10 veterans rely on Medicaid for healthcare services. Every year, Republicans vote to defund Medicaid. Outraged?
Over 500,000 veterans receive meals on wheels. Every year Republicans vote to end the Meals on Wheels program. Outraged?
