The abortion law builds on legislation passed in 2010 that represented a major shift for a traditionally Catholic country, transforming Spain into one of the most progressive countries in Europe on reproductive rights. Spain's constitutional court last week rejected a challenge by the right-wing Popular Party against allowing abortions in the first 14 weeks of pregnancy.
The debate will be heated in Spain, I imagine, as the conservative opposition pushes back. My daughter had horrible menstrual pain during her adolescence and young adulthood. I'm certain that she would have benefitted from that time.

No one should be harassed or "triggered" especially trans as they are at a emotional disadvantage.
How about offending some democrats feelings because most people do not agree with administering potent chemicals and removing healthy body parts in minors? Why should children be allowed to have surgeries with risk of major complications and or permanent changes just to spare some democrat emotions and feelings?
Let me see if I can understand the point you are making...
Parents and doctors and the transkids are engaging in supportive health care "just to spare some Democrat emotions and feelings"? Is that what you are saying? People get health care to appease Democrats feelings or offend the religious beliefs of Republicans?
I hope that you can clarify because otherwise that might be one of the most stupid things I've seen posted here by a member.

Great point! Yes we need to allow abortions for the 0.08 % (not actial figure) of abortion done because if incest and rape.
Demorats are notorious for double standards and hypocrisy.
We need to allow abortion because;
Every person has a right to make their own health care decisions.
Abortion is necessary healthcare.
Famous, eh?
Double standards like calling January 6th a simple protest while the real concern was the nationwide protest of a bold and brutally cruel murder of an unarmed black man in broad daylight on a neighborhood street? Like that? Or is that hypocrisy? Maybe it's both.
Double standards like investigating Hunter Biden profiting from family connection and pretending like Trump didn't hire his oldest daughter and her husband who then personally profited from foreign business interests and investments while having White House offices? Is that a good example of double standards or of hypocrisy?
The attempt at projection was pathetic. Back to Trump University you go.
Senate Democrats are launching a new investigation into the foreign payments made to Jared Kushner's investment firm.
Senate Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden announced the probe on Wednesday, saying that the panel would investigate the billions of dollars that Affinity Partners manages from foreign sources.
Kushner started Affinity in July 2021, less than six months after leaving the White House as a senior adviser to former President Donald Trump. The firm quickly attracted big-time investors from the Middle East and within weeks, landed $2 billion from the Saudi public investment fund. Affinity continues to overwhelmingly derive the majority of its funds from the Saudi Arabian government....
Affinity has disclosed to regulators that 99 percent of the $3 billion of assets that the firm manages come from non-U.S. persons. The $1 billion not funded by Saudi Arabia is reportedly split between sovereign wealth funds owned by the governments of the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, Taiwanese billionaire and politician Terry Gou, and another investor whose identity has not yet been publicized....
...On Wednesday, Wyden raised concern that Kushner and others were using Affinity's foreign-funded private investment funds as a loophole, exploiting those accounts to avoid federal laws that require Americans to disclose payments from foreign governments....

Yes. The "mostly peacful " protest and the Jan. 6 riot that was worse than 9/11 are great examples of the ridiculous left hypocrisy.
In a new book, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci recounts a career advising seven presidents. The chapter about Donald J. Trump is titled "He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not.”
...The book, which will be released on June 18, traces the arc of Dr. Fauci's life, from his boyhood in Brooklyn as a son of first-generation Italian Americans (his father was a pharmacist, and the family lived above the "Fauci Pharmacy”) through his 54-year career at the National Institutes of Health, 38 of them as the director of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
Put my order in for Dr. Fauci's 450 page book "On Call: A Doctor's Journey in Public Service," available June 18th as my carrier parallel his so interesting in his thoughts on healthcare. Having cared for full blown AIDS patients with Kaposi Sarcoma in 1982, grateful for his staffs research, drug development and education to extend those with HIV lives.

I'm impressed you didn't do the standby deflection "what about BLM protests" to point out liberal hypocrisy whenever someone wants to criticize January 6th.
105 comedians from around the world traveled to the Vatican for a papal audience and to "establish a link between the Catholic Church and comic artists," according to the Dicastery for Culture and Education, which organized the meeting.
Comedians from the United States included Conan O'Brien, Stephen Colbert, Chris Rock, Jimmy Fallon, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Whoopi Goldberg, Jim Gaffigan and Mike Birbiglia among others.

"In the midst of so much gloomy news, immersed as we are in many social and even personal emergencies, you have the power to spread peace and smiles,” Francis told the comedians.
"You unite people, because laughter is contagious,” he continued, asking jokingly, "Please pray for me: for, not against!”
Francis pointed out that in the creation, "Divine wisdom practiced your art for the benefit of none other than God himself, the first spectator in history,” with God delighting in the works that he had made.
"Remember this,” he added. "When you manage to bring intelligent smiles to the lips of even a single spectator, you also make God smile.”
Francis also said it was OK to "laugh at God" in the same way "we play and joke with the people we love.”
You can't gas light us about the events of 010621, you can only make yourself appear delusional.
Actually it was a "mostly peaceful protest" when you look at the numbers. What I don't appreciate is "you're making such a big deal out of a mostly peaceful protest, what about BLM protests you hypocrite." It was peaceful until it wasn't and labeling it as a "mostly peaceful' protest is sugar coating.

010621 was an attempt to stop the peaceful transfer of power so that Trump's fake electors could be forwarded. They needed Pence to respond to the chaos by refusing to certify the results.
The fact that some of the mob didn't commit acts of violence or destruction of property doesn't define the purpose of the gathering, does it? The purpose of the assembly was to stop the steal. That's how it was advertised and that's what the fiery speeches told them, to fight like hell to save their country, right?

Didn't you say you had family members there? Was stopping the "peaceful transfer of power" their purpose in attending?
