Donald and his Republican NRA-driven Congress can’t get gun control done but they sure can come after our civil rights, which includes the right to control out own bodies.
This is discriminatory and a direct attack on a fundamental component of the Affordable Care Act. Birth control is expensive and, for many, not affordable.
They have also cut funding to all programs that assist educating or raising kids – special needs or otherwise. But they want to force women to keep having them.
This comes from an administration that has shown total disregard and disrespect for women, particularly lower wage earning women. It is also an all-out assault on people of color of all ages and genders.
In the past 6 weeks, we’ve also witnessed the huge distinction in attitude and attention paid by this administration to hurricane victims in Texas and Florida as compared to those in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. FYI: The people of Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands cannot vote for president. One might conclude it’s all about the Donald and his base.
That’s who the Donald plays to. His personal obsession for attacking all things “Obama” really gets them revved, and also distracted. His base doesn’t care about Iran or North Korean, but they do care about making their religious convictions the law of this land.
Earlier in the week, the House passed a 20-week abortion ban. Now it is said to be heading to the Senate.

Remember: Just like shotguns, elections have consequences, and we are clearly on the wrong end of this one.
