Hillary Clinton is warning about the legality of birth control in the wake of a decision by the Alabama Supreme Court that found frozen embryos created through fertility treatments are children under state law.

“They came for abortion first. Now it’s [in vitro fertilization], and next it’ll be birth control,” the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee and secretary of State said in a post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

“The extreme right won’t stop trying to exert government control over our most sacred personal decisions until we codify reproductive freedom as a human right,” Clinton added.

    Sanders would’ve beat Trump in 2016, could’ve done it in 2020 and could do it now.

    He’s the most liked politician in America, respected across the aisle, and gets standing ovation from Fox News Town Halls, because even if they disagree with his ideas, even your rank and file Republican can see he means well and is genuine.

    2016 Bernie got sandbagged. Elites thought Status Quo would stem off populist rage, never looking at any cause of why there’s so much populism on all sides. It must be the candidates right? Its definitely not that 80% of the country still hasn’t bounced back from 2008, the news lies to us everyday and half the populace wants to fix it (left, which is in reality, center right) and the other half are a mix of accelerationists whive lost faith in change (justifiably) and want it to all burn down and opportunists (neo-nazi’s, fascists, and authoritarian theocrats - one big group that collectively, to the shame of their mothers, needs to learn to mind their own fucking business and stop trying to tell people what to do). 2020 was performance for Bidens cabinet from the start, it was suuuuuper obvious by the media’s handling he came pre coronated. I say this as someone who likes Biden. He’s been a stand-up family man his whole life and he’s pivoted away from corporate interests towards the people’s, not as much as I’d like, and it’s about 40 years late, but I like that it’s happening.

    I wouldn’t mind Shawn Fein for 2028, especially if he pulls off a general strike on mayday, mid campaign. He’d be a fucking LEGEND then.

    The DNC, liberals, have got to look around and realize that the status quo is a tough pull to swallow. Both sides of the aisle HATE corporations, those in the center work for them and politicains on both sides are bought and paid for by them. The dip shits who make up the WEF, who think we’ll all be happy not owning anything, from the outside, seem to want to incite a real life purge. I don’t think they actually mean too, I think they’re too far removed from normality, that they think they’re better and smarter than us rubes, and that if violence broke out, they’d survive it…in a country with more bullets than IVs, and full of veterans who watched their friends die for rich greed. I think the rich are preeeeetty fucking detached from how precarious their situation is. Jamie Dixon and Larry Fink have both been squawking, on record, that profits before people isn’t working and the business class needs to pivot, but it doesn’t seem like many are listening.

      It also doesn’t help that when Bernie looked to have the lead “suddenly” all the so-called “LibErAl MeDiA” decided to run story after story about “Bernie loves Castro!” “Bernie said nice things about communism in Cuba!” “Bernie loves Cuba!”

        CNN cut Bernie off at a rally to show 45min of an empty podium, until Trump started. Trump was on time btw, CNN just thought an empty podium was better for democracy than Bernie’s campaign.

        I haven’t watched, or clicked on anything CNN since. I hope their pundits and their CSuite all end up homeless.

          Unfortunately they have gotten even worse as the heads of the corporation have been quoted as saying something to the effect of “Fox news actually has a great model to emulate, they have actual journalism (try to hold the vomit) between all opinion shows.”

          They want to be another fox news…
