I hope that ad is broadcast far and wide! I'm tired of the general population's naivety when it comes to pregnancies. I hope they follow up with more stories from other women so assholes can see how common this is. Fuck anybody who wants to come between a women and her doctor!
Most Republicans think abortion is used as birth control by 20 year old sorority girls. They have no idea the average abortion patient is a woman in her early 30s and already has kids.
I hope this ad is a punch in their fucking guts.

Ok, but when a Republican controlled House and Senate pass a 6 or 15 week national abortion ban, he'll veto that bill, right?
Right?

Counterpoint: Chipotle is one of the last remaining values when eating out. Less than $10 (here) for a chicken bowl with rice and veggies? I eat there 2-3 times a month.

Apparently Rock "The Dwayne" Johnson was on Fox news saying he's not going to endorse either candidate this election and went on to unironically complain about woke and "cancel culture"
The Rock Regrets Publicly Endorsing Biden in 2020 and Won’t Do It Again
WWW.THEDAILYBEAST.COM
The star actor told Fox News that he now prefers to keep his politics private.Quote“The endorsement that I made years ago with Biden was one I thought was the best decision for me at that time. I realize now going into this election, I will not do that, my goal is to bring this country together,” said the actor and former pro-wrestler who has toyed with the idea of a presidential run.
QuoteJohnson added that he believed the Biden presidency has sown “division” in the country, repeating Fox-friendly platitudes about “cancel culture, woke culture, this culture, that culture” which he said “really bugs me.” He didn’t go into further detail about what that “division” looked like to him.

Trump claims he has $500 million in cash, undercutting lawyers' claims on bond money
WWW.NBCNEWS.COM
The former president must post the bond for the full amount he owes Monday or New York Attorney General Letitia James could try to seize his bank accounts or properties.I believe there's a "the president would never shit his pants; I SHIT MY PANTS ON PURPOSE" tweet about this.

Oh please try and run this messaging. I beg you:
Imagine trying to tell anyone but the base that they’re better than they were during a PANDEMIC.Republicans have been obsessed with using this since Reagan in the 80s. It’s pretty much a pavlovian campaign message for them and I don’t think they are going to be able to stop.
It’s hilarious.

GOP nominee to run North Carolina public schools called for violence against Democrats, including executing Obama and Biden | CNN Politics
WWW.CNN.COM
The Republican nominee for superintendent overseeing North Carolina’s public schools and its $11 billion budget has a history marked by extreme and controversial comments, including sharing deranged conspiracies and frequent calls for the execution of prominent Democrats.Quote“I prefer a Pay Per View of him in front of the firing squad,” she wrote in a tweet from May 2020, responding to a user sharing a conspiracy theory who suggested sending Obama to prison at Guantanamo Bay. “I do not want to waste another dime on supporting his life. We could make some money back from televising his death.

I'm sure Fox News will run multiple high profile articles with this new information, just like they ran 20+ news stories on the original report... you know, so their audience doesn't just absorb the original messaging without seeing any of the follow-up, because setting up a situation like that would be super questionable morally...
I won't be able to check since I still have the site blocked... so I'll just assume that is what is happening, because surely the most popular news organization in the country has incredibly high journalistic standards.
Even if they ran multiple high profile articles, it wouldn't matter. The purpose of right-wing media is to introduce talking points and narratives. The introduction of the talking points themselves is to them, evidence of their actuality.
It's why, over 10 years later, if you mention the words "IRS" around conservatives they have an almost Pavlovian response that Obama weaponized the IRS against conservatives.

Former advisers sound the alarm that Trump praises despots in private and on the campaign trail | CNN Politics
WWW.CNN.COM
To Donald Trump, Hungarian strongman Viktor Orban is “fantastic”, Chinese leader Xi Jinping is “brilliant”, North Korea’s Kim Jong Un is “an okay guy”, and most alarmingly he allegedly said Adolf Hitler “did some good things,” a worldview that would reverse decades-old US foreign policy in a second term should he win November’s presidential election, multiple former senior advisers tell CNN.QuoteTrump allegedly reserved some of his most unnerving praise for Hitler, who led Nazi Germany during World War II.
“He said, ‘Well, but Hitler did some good things.’ I said, ‘Well, what?’ And he said, ‘Well, [Hitler] rebuilt the economy.’ But what did he do with that rebuilt economy? He turned it against his own people and against the world. And I said, ‘Sir, you can never say anything good about the guy. Nothing,’” Kelly recounted. “I mean, Mussolini was a great guy in comparison.”
“It’s pretty hard to believe he missed the Holocaust, though, and pretty hard to understand how he missed the 400,000 American GIs that were killed in the European theater,” Kelly told me.
QuoteTrump’s admiration for Hitler went further than the German leader’s economic policies, according to Kelly. Trump also expressed admiration for Hitler’s hold on senior Nazi officers. Trump lamented that Hitler, as Kelly recounted, maintained his senior staff’s “loyalty,” while Trump himself often did not.
“He would ask about the loyalty issues and about how, when I pointed out to him the German generals as a group were not loyal to him, and in fact tried to assassinate him a few times, and he didn’t know that,” Kelly recalled. “He truly believed, when he brought us generals in, that we would be loyal — that we would do anything he wanted us to do,” Kelly told me.
QuoteWhen asked to respond to the allegations from the former Trump administration officials, Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung did not comment on the substance of what they told me but stated, “John Kelly and John Bolton have completely beclowned themselves and are suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. They need to seek professional help because their hatred is consuming their empty lives.”

I typically hate the faux importance the media and political class put on SOTU, but this one actually feels important?

Although they agreed with the ruling, it's worth reading the 3 liberal judges concurring opinion. They excoriate the 6 conservative justices for creating new constitutional provisions out of whole cloth.
