As a 63 year old woman, I found it appalling. If this is their message, they are in trouble. I am well-educated, and I can cook and bake like a madwoman; I do not appreciate the "assumption" that family values are born of a Stepford wife with plastic fruit in her kitchen.

As someone who had a fetus expire at 20 weeks, I had a D&E to remove the tissue since it wouldn't expel itself. You can't put a timeline on abortion services. Abortion must be a safe medical procedure.
@BaddCompani
Yes. You're one of the reasons I decided to start a "fresh" Twitter account after I was caught up in a sweep, where my account of 15 years was suspended. Pisses me off, the things that people like Nick Adams and Madge TG get away with when I'm banned for combating violence.
@MuellerSheWrote
I know it's not over, but this has been a really good night. In my estimation. I've been a student of politics for almost 40 years. This is zeitgeist.
@gtconway3d
I think so. I cannot believe how attached I am to supporting him right now. I am an Al Gore supporter from way back, and when women decided to run, I cast my vote for them. But Joe is standing up to the bullies, and it is a David and Goliath moment for many of us.
@ElieNYC
15 weeks isn't "late term." I had an abortion at 20 weeks. (It was for fetal demise, but I'm so sick of typing that detail because it is NO ONE'S BUSINESS except mine). Abortion must remain safe, legal, and out of the hands of white, Xtian, Republican politicians.

Anyone who can get pregnant. Women, with job equality. People of color. Jews. Gays. Pretty much everyone except straight, white Xtian males who love to mansplain how the version of their dystopia is superior.

I think it's a sinister attempt. They are flooding their electorate with polls so that they can claim that the election was stolen. Period. I was thinking about this over the last few days, and that's the logical conclusion.

Thank God. I had a meltdown over this yesterday. Long story, but the Dominionists caused deep childhood trauma, and I just uncovered it. I loathe what these people stand for.

I--literally--live in the suburbs in a swing county in a swing state (that's right, Kent County, MI), and I'm here to tell you from the reaction I've seen, she did nothing of the kind. It's hard for women to connect with other women who use fundie baby voice.
@approject
Reported for disinformation. This is NOT true, and the fact that you are claiming it is shows just how out of touch the GOP is with the truth. Shame on you.

The FBI came to MI last week to talk to the officer who refused to let the fake electors in. I know the GOP here were freaking out yesterday.

15 weeks is not enough. I lost my pregnancy at 20 weeks. It is insane to create a “one size fits all” law, when each pregnancy is unique.
@cbouzy
Unfortunately, a good percentage of them will save that info for their book deals. However, there are still many journalists who do care and will do the right thing.
@BillKristol
Funny. As an informed person, I appreciated his thoughtful and detailed answers on foreign policy. As an older person, it is a painful reminder of ageism, and I guarantee you it pisses many of us off.
@RanchHand0351
You know this, but Prince is a bad, bad seed. I'm from West Michigan. He's been scary (if you know about him) for decades. I want to see him held accountable.

This segment was brilliant, and Matthew Dowd's soliloquy at the end brought tears to my eyes. I'm going to write a poem about it and send it to him.

I'm really trying to put myself in their shoes to understand how they twist ideas of immunity, and it is difficult. I do not see it this way.
@chrislhayes
It won't work. As someone who had a fetus expire at 20 weeks, I needed a D&E because it wouldn't expel itself. You really can't put a timeline on abortions. Abortion must be a safe medical procedure, and no one else's business.

My mom was born in 1937, and talks about the horrifying effects that polio had--not just in disabling the patients, but within the family and community. Loss of a lot of children. Couldn't go swimming in the Summer due to potential exposure, etc.

Michigander here who worked for the Dems and Prop 3 this election. Hell yeah! The leadership that we have in Michigan is the best in the country, and WE ARE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL to the Holy Trinity in Lansing!
@0liviajulianna
Because she exhibits responsible, compassionate leadership. She's a "do-er." She walks her talk. She has integrity. And this is coming from someone who is older than she.
@TomBevanRCP
You are flat-out wrong. Hillary Clinton conceded the next morning. No one said it was rigged. Many did say the electoral college is obsolete. FACTS.
@Popehat
Watching FOX (so you don't have to)--what strikes me is that they talk about PEOPLE and thus try to tie what they consider "bad policy" with people they consider to be "bad" people. It's frickin' bizarre. They haven't left 6th grade. No substance at all.

@Acyn
The fact that he had the balls to show up, I agree. He is walking his talk--he is showing that he is willing to testify. The GOP is afraid of him.

Timing is consequential—not TFG’s, but Ken Burns’ documentary on PBS on the Holocaust starts tonight, I believe. Everyone should be glued to it.

I am *just* about to retire. A writer (spin writing is my thing) and a communicator, I'd walk over that cracked-glass ceiling to support you and help you in any way I can. Seriously. We are so thirsty for people with integrity in government.
@Angry_Staffer
A friend of mine who worked in federal government suddenly changed his mind and thinks an indictment is imminent because of this. Is it true? I don't know...
@jmpalmieri
I'll tell you what I took away, Jennifer. She is a capable woman who was acting like Michelle Duggar. The Christian pomposity coupled with the breathy whispers gave me a strong "Quiverful" vibe.
@sandibachom
I am not an expert. I do a lot of reading and am well educated. I do not remember the name, but I definitely remember that they were waiting on a final affirmation. I have to leave for a bit, but I will go down the rabbit hole if you need me to later to find this info.
@natsechobbyist
He's not wrong. I am back in therapy 2x/week due to extreme anxiety because of Trump and Trumpism. It sucks. I've tried to do all I can to make it right for myself--daily exercise, meditation, prayer, journaling...it is a national crisis. Seriously
@TheRickWilson
That comment by him is rich, especially when you recall that Roger Stone has a tattoo of Tricky Dicky on his back. Newt must be just peachy with that.
@CharlesPPierce
It's amazing to me that we studied him in high school history class. Given all of the other people we could have learned about, Lindbergh was it. Crazy.
@PalmerReport
To be fair, I think Twitter is much worse for the dooming and glooming. I love Nicolle Wallace. She rarely gets it wrong. I never watch before her show, though. This platform sprays negativity like a skunk at a crowded party.

@genzforchange
You need a quasi-retired, former communications manager for both large and small companies, to join you? Because I LOVE what you're doing. I LOVE the energy, and I want to help your generation succeed at what my generation got wrong. (Climate, equality, and much more.) LMK!
@BradMossEsq
@dscc
15 weeks still isn't enough time. I had a fetus expire at 20 weeks and needed a D&E because it wouldn't expel itself. Every circumstance is unique; you can't assign a deadline to abortion. Besides that, it is no one else's business what a woman and her doc decide to do.

MSNBC is pretty much all over Project 2025. NPR, even. The Epstein / Maxwell info hasn't been covered. It's inexplicable to me, unless they are trying to verify something. And if so, what is that something? That's what I want to know.
@UROCKlive1
Agreed. She's not reading the moment, imo. It seems to me that the priorities were wrong. I haven't heard much focus on Trump's lies--that is the most egregious part of this. Why hasn't he been arrested for treason yet?

@RepEricBurlison
Was it, though? I watched it as it unfurled...there was crimin' goin' on. You cannot bury the truth, Josh. If I were you and if I wanted to win, I wouldn't have posted this.

Michigan is having success with that approach. I've been in the Dem HQ in GR; lots of activity with young and older voters. I've never seen it this busy. Showed up at 9 AM on Friday to canvas; 50 people were there. Unheard of.

Nicolle is on this. Rachel is on it. Joy was just talking about it. What bothers me is that I've followed the movement for a long time and no one believed me that this was happening. Now...it has happened. I have a lot of anxiety over this.

Great point. So grateful for our Holy Trinity (no offense to the religious, but this Trinity is tangible) of Gov. Whitmer, AG Nessel, and SoS Benson. They are competent and fierce.
On several levels. It helped me insure my daughter until she was 26. It also helped me by making Medicaid available to me after I lost a job. ACA All the Way!
“Affordable Care Act” is trending because it became law 13 years ago today.
RT if you or somebody you know was helped by a facet of this law…

⚕️insurance marketplace

I just spent three hours canvassing with friends. For the Dems. I've done my part working for Kent County Dems this year--now all you Michiganders get out the VOTE! It's up to you now. Straight blue and YES on the proposals.
