As usual, AOC sums it up well.

Just when you think he can't be more morally reprehensible...we are unsurprised by yet another situation.

Exactly. I'm appalled by the # of women who say females aren't equipped emotionally to hold high office. I've been waiting all my life for full equality for women.

I notice the male dominance ALL the time- like Molly said.

Now THAT'S skilled opinion writing...

I love turnips,but at that price? Shop at Aldi, Lidl, Grocery Outlet or whatever in your area. Do coupons, etc. Cook from scratch. Most importantly-become politically active/aware and vote

(White) male privilege is alive and well. Most men haven't been in situations in which they're sexually violated. So very many women have. Some men lack a frame of reference and are lacking in empathy. Women's rights advocates are ridiculed. -been happening for a long long time.

Jimmy Carter is who I think of when people say they want to live consistently with their moral or religious values. I had the utmost respect for him.

Yay. Let's not forget how ridiculous this has become. US medical/scientific infrastructure must be restored before people roll carts around yelling " bring out your dead!"

Way to take a stand against fascism instead of staying quiet and hoping it will all work out somehow..

The mayor of Minneapolis MN gave an excellent interview to explain the need for tighter gun control legislation to those who disagree. I agree with him and thank him for his candor.

Women in states like TX are made to suffer and bleed out for hours during pregnancy complications. Drs are afraid of being prosecuted if they intervene. This is a crime against women, children they already have and their families. Cruel.

I really do agree with Matthew here. January 6 had me watching it on TV with tears in my eyes. It was a massive sign of future problems. More could've been done to prevent the suffering in America that's happening now.

Obama was unable to pass gun control legislation after Sandy Hook. How do you expect J. Raskin to do it now, with no majority in the House or Senate? Raskin IS on the gun control side.

-and they are all female...

Yes, Mr. Reich. Sometimes the truth is too scary for some people to accept.

He SHOULD be President

I completely agree with Jen R. Meeting like-minded people makes one feel less alone. Find what works for you and take some positive, non-violent action to turn the tide toward truth, civil rights and democracy. United people have power.

Your dedication is much appreciated, Senator Kim

Thanks for speaking out for science, facts and truth in a time when fraudulent, predatory nut bags hold high positions in govt. RFK's cousin tried to warn everyone.

America's love affair with guns is sad and pathetic. -but apparently many citizens here support common-sense gun legislation. It won't happen under this Administration.

You're not my Congressman, but I thank you for highlighting this issue. You deserve much respect and praise.

Thx to their governor, Sara Huckabee Sanders. Pulling the rug out from underneath child labor laws. Can't express how horrid she is..

I wondered if I was one of the few who noticed the sheer awfulness of such rhetoric from a President. Contrast with Harris' statement that she intended to be everyone's President. We cannot become accustomed to the hate speech and take it in stride..

So why is it OK to allow these women to veer so close to death? It's a crime against females.

Your hard work to provide details in this bill is much appreciated. I was a nursing home SW in a place with many Medicaid recipients. This bill will leave many older people and families w/o viable options. Govt "for the people "??

Mollie is right. I'm still reeling from stories in some states of women wanting to have kids left lying there in terrible pain, bleeding out during miscarriage b/c of US law. It's nonsensical, anti-female and when are ALL USA women going to understand it's too extreme?

This is infuriating and sad at the same time. Truly. The Repubs have taken over OUR(everyone's) govt and are trying to rewrite history. -but truth is truth, and the color orange is taking on a terrible vibe.

This is how they treat members of the military..I saw Hegseth praising them to the skies in his speech. Seems like the antithesis of reward for military members to me. It's immoral.

This issue makes my head explode. Rational action to save lives destroyed by lobbyists and greed. So many Americans worship guns. And $$.
