"women should have to prove they were raped before being eligible for an abortion"

This is the same party that tells us they are protecting women from sexual predators in the bathroom.

Lots of so-called "rapes" are really just non-consenting sex with sexual predators that the woman regrets later.

"Rick Jackson (71) is a Republican health care executive and billionaire founder of Jackson Healthcare."

Just what the people of Georgia and the US need.

Another misogynistic billionaire oligarch who doesn't want universal healthcare for all residents of the US, as enjoyed by Israelis, Germans, Canadians, 95% of Iranians, Cubans, Greenlanders, Taiwanese, Albanians, and Mexicans in 2027.

Just wait until this MAGA troglodyte makes his public vows of fealty to the NRA, ICE, and Israel.

Blech!

Another Republican Can't Count to 9 Months

What does this mean? It's nonsensical.
OP is obviously a moloch-worshipping semite-adjacent circumcised sodomite gap-toothed moron

Daddysfist is an ass-gaped mongoloid who can't count to 9.

Give her the abortion and if she can't prove it. Jail time. Is that better?

Do you reside permanently or just part-time in Gilead? How're the taxes there?

Imagine if it were law that women had to make up at least half of the people serving in Congress...or the Executive Branch, so if a man is elected to the Senate, next election a woman has to be voted in.
As it is, there is widespread discrimination against women, because so few serve as lawmakers. Goodness knows I believe our country would be far, far better off if such laws were enacted.
