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.

    Biden had our help in the 2020 general because some of us believed he was willing to compromise with leftists and progressives. Four years later we know he isn’t. I won’t be voting for Biden again. I will be voting 3rd party or a write in.

      Bullshit. A vote for 3rd party is a vote for Trump. Hey ho, the trolls are here!

        Aren’t you the kind of person who blamed “bernie bros” for Hillary’s loss in 2016? Can’t have it both ways my dude.

      What you say…and your conclusion

      Do not meet in reality.

      Biden has moved the Dems left. He’s more left than Clinton or Obama were. He walked a picket line for fucks sake, first president ever.

      Does he have more room on the left to move too? Shit, he’s got as far as the eye can see, but hes panned further left than he even campaigned on. Saying otherwise is disingenuous, so much so, that I don’t think you voted for him at all.

        He walked a picket line for fucks sake, first president ever.

        When I say “compromise with leftists and progressives” you think walking on a picket line is sufficient? No. That’s pathetic. Here’s some real compromises to be made:

        1. Don’t block strikes. Vow to veto any attempts to block a rail strike in his next term.
        2. Stop sending weapons to Israel.

        Saying otherwise is disingenuous, so much so, that I don’t think you voted for him at all.

        You gave a pathetic example that did not have any meaningful impact on the lives of Americans. The UAW was already on strike and well on their way to getting what they were fighting for. Showing up to a picket line doesn’t make up for blocking the rail strike.

        I’m not sure if you’ve noticed but Biden’s approval ratings are way down since he was elected. If you think I’m just some troll fine. Whatever. But I gotta wonder where you believe the people who did vote for him and disapprove of his actions are voicing those opinions? Or do you just accuse everyone who says they aren’t voting for him again of being a liar?
