MAGA just really does not give a crap about women’s health.
Or anyone, at all. They care about their own power, wealth, and status, nothing and no one else.
Oh, they do. They care because they want women to suffer.
It makes sense when you realize they take "women's health" to mean literally one thing only: access to abortions.
Being maga means just being a Karen. That's all it really is.
It is far more than that.
Try to stay with me here because I have this crazy idea. It’s out there. So far out there I’m pretty sure it’s never been done. How about we have a woman with medical training in charge of women’s health?
Be careful what you wish for, or they will find the one woman trained in medicine who wants to sterilize people using logic derived from eugenics.
There's one here in Houston who believes in all kinds of crazy shit. Look up Stella Immanuel.
Dr. Demon Semen! Yeah, she's perfect for a Donald appointee.
Great idea. Also, only gay people get to vote on gay rights.
Not joking.
The training makes her an expert and you can't trust those. Can't trust a woman either, so that's double untrustworthy.
Oh right. Vance’s debate argument that you can’t go with what economists say about the economy.
Ngl it’s kind of a hilarious and baffling self-own with regards to the women’s vote. Like, genuinely, how is this in any way supposed to convince more women to vote for him? An antivax nut job with a literal worm in his brain…? Like… wut.
I’m not sure RFK, Jr should be in charge of his own health.
What makes you say that? The brain-worm, or his history of eating rotten flesh?
What do you mean? He's a very healthy looking zombie.
The man with literal worm-on-the-brain is going to be in charge of women's bodies. I mean, of course! This timeline is really turning out to be worse than any "alternate universe" episodes of most sci-fi shows.
A dead worm. Poor thing starved to death 😢
Looks like donnie is really doubling down on hoping the male vote puts him over because this is the exact opposite of outreach to women voters...
Is he an HPV vaccine skeptic too? Because that wouldn't bode well for the rates of cervical cancer.
He's an everything vaccine skeptic. He's said that he tells random women in the park not to vaccinate their kids.
Picture him dragging a bear corpse and telling passerbys not to vaccinate.
Thanks for the info. What a shithead
Republicans are talking about banning all vaccines, which is obviously insane and murderous.
Is there currently someone "in charge of women's health" in our government? This sounds ominous af.
Edit: Turns out there is a Office of Women's Health in the FDA that is focused on addressing unique biology I guess. That seems to make it even worse.
How is it not a conspiracy that he's trying to lose this election. And how are his dumb ass supporters, who are often so high on conspiracy theory, oblivious to this notion? And why the fuck is the media making it out to be hyper competitive with both sides bringing equal amounts of crazy and reason to the table
Also as a non-American, I don't get how this is even a close election? To me it seems like the options are Competent Politician Who You May Not Agree With On Everything vs. Actual Cabal Of Demented Fascists, and it seems like it could genuinely go either way.
And why the fuck is the media making it out to be hyper competitive with both sides bringing equal amounts of crazy and reason to the table
The bothsiderist formula is what the corporate media loves best. Doing truth-telling is not really their thing.
You're not as stupid as to support the subject of that headline, Reader. Vote for Harris.
A clip from RFK Jr.'s recent interview about his plans for women's health
Trump really has a talent for picking the absolute worst possible people for any position.
How the fuck did this man come from the Kennedy family?
Actually, it makes perfect sense. Being a Kennedy is traumatic. Behind the Bastards did a set of episodes on him, and between the deaths and other weird things (including giving them too much power and bad parenting in general) I'm not surprised at all how he turned out.
A list of possible new Republican slogans for Women's rights and women's health:
"It all starts out by grabbing the pussy real good"
"If by the pussy you don't succeed, try and try again"
"If you're famous, they let you health care them by the pussy"
Is this the lobster that Jordan Peterson is famous for?

Information for HuffPost:
Wiki: reliable - A 2020 RfC found HuffPost staff writers fairly reliable for factual reporting on non-political topics, but notes that they may give prominence to topics that support their political bias and less prominence to, or omit, things that contradict it. HuffPost's reliability has increased since 2012; articles before 2012 are less reliable and should be treated with more caution. HuffPost uses clickbait headlines to attract attention to its articles, thus the body text of any HuffPost article is considered more reliable than its headline. See also: HuffPost (politics), HuffPost contributors.
Wiki: mixed - In the 2020 RfC, there was no consensus on HuffPost staff writers' reliability for political topics. The community considers HuffPost openly biased on American politics. There is no consensus on its reliability for international politics. See also: HuffPost (excluding politics), HuffPost contributors.
Wiki: unreliable - Until 2018, the U.S. edition of HuffPost published content written by contributors with near-zero editorial oversight. These contributors generally did not have a reputation for fact-checking, and most editors consider them highly variable in quality. Editors show consensus for treating HuffPost contributor articles as self-published sources, unless the article was written by a subject-matter expert. In 2018, HuffPost discontinued its contributor platform, but old contributor articles are still online.
