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.
I don't spend any time on TikTok other than looking at whatever funny thing a family member sends me. Then NEB showed me one of the influencer videos. Maybe it's possible that their questions will spur some examination of the groups who are using that particular tax status to discover whether they meet the intentions and language of the laws.
Quote
The IRS website states that 501(c)(3) organizations "may not publish or distribute printed statements or make oral statements on behalf of, or in opposition to, a candidate for public office. Consequently, a written or oral endorsement of a candidate is strictly forbidden."
The influences contend that The Heritage Foundation may be violating the regulations around written or oral endorsement of a candidate. I expect that the defense from THF would be that an endorsement is a very narrow and specific event rather than a broader promotion of person, party, or policy.
It seems that a good many people are concerned about the marketing of P2025. People not necessarily associated with Democratic politicians are calling it out.

Most Republicans support Trump, who is an incompetent right wing extremist. That alone contradicts your contention that most conservatives don't like or appreciate a right wing extremist. Are you just making stuff up because it sounds good?
Republican conservative voters are supporting right wing extremist policy and people and have a right wing extremist candidate for the presidency. They joined forces with white nationalists, white supremacists, anarchists and neo-Nazis groups to vote for Trump on 2016 and 2020.
I'm just going to laugh at your pearl clutching over those poor poor conservatives who you don't think have done anything to the LGBTQ community. While you share some of their hateful beliefs right here before pivoting to that victim stance, I'm going to just laugh robustly at you.
What is your paragraph rant about illegal immigrants supposed to mean except that you don't read carefully or you don't comprehend what you are reading?
You aren't going to be able to redefine what a book ban is and it's telling that you think you should try to justify and normalize the practice of banning books. You probably haven't read Fahrenheit 451 either.
Sure people can believe whatever crazy or un-American thing they want to. Unfortunately, voters like yourself plan to vote for some of these people who are believing these crazy things and they say them in interviews on television as if it's normal and expected that politicians will say and believe things which should be disqualifying. Trump is the perfect example of that crazy person who believes and says and even does crazy, un-American things, and millions of people will just vote for him anyway. Crazy and corrupt is the new conservatism in republican politics in the era of Trump. Just consider some of the people that MAGA has voted into congress and state offices since Trump took the helm of the GOP.
Oh... now you say that I contend that Biden is in "perfect cognitive condition". Gosh I don't remember anyone here saying that and you carefully avoided using any names of elected democrats who have said that. That most likely means that you made that up. You maybe feel like that's an easier argument for you to oppose, that Biden's in "perfect cognitive condition". I think, that in order to argue against that idea or belief you'll have to go find those people you were talking about who said it believe that and argue it with them. You may also assign some weird belief about the meaning of the word "extremist" to others but most others won't accept your definition, preferring the standard meaning to fabricated meaning.
My guess is that you don't really want me to list some of the extremist features or beliefs found in Trump and MAGA ideology to help you understand what extremism really includes. So, I'll let your confusion persist without trying to help you comprehend.
Removing inappropriate sexual graphic books from schools is not the same as the Nazi book banning/burning but it is you and far left extreemist that try to make that association. On the tragedy of which that caused.
It is the left that has tried to redefine words including "white supremacist, Nazi, white nationalists and even what a man or a woman is.
I nevervclaimed any one said Biden was in perfect condition. Only pointing out the blatant denial or blatant dishonesty that his cognition isn't declined enough to be president. Would you let a surgeon operate on you or a patient with the cognitive decline Biden has?
Are you seriously claiming that there isn't any elected Democrat official that has not at least down played Bidens cognitive decline? You have LOL.
I expect that their defense will be that they haven't endorsed a political candidate.
Yes but this member seem oblivious that several democrat officials HAVE called out Bidens cognitive declne and have even asking him to step down. !!
Any republican calling it out is logical. Most do not agree or endorse P2025 . Apparently that makes them more complicit? And no one has any evidence Trump authorized or influenced it either. Only that "Trump lies". ?? WOW!?

Yeah. That's what we've been saying. The majority of republican do not endorse it. Are calling it out due to it's ridiculousness. So I'm unsure what your big gotcha point is.
Probably not but it's a first step to increasing awareness that a couple of our SCOTUS justices don't seem to be able to figure out what bribery or corruption include in the minds of we the people. We need to get over the notion that these appointments are untouchable lifetime positions even when the justices are misbehaving. Or when they can't understand directions or rules for them while interpreting rules for us.
I mean if they campaigned on "getting rid of Row" and paid their lovers exorbitant amounts of money and took luxury vacations together.

That sounds like you consider endorsement to be an event or an announcement. Would that be correct?
Do you think that praising or indicating preference of one thing or person over another, repeatedly, is a form of endorsement? The law tends to be very picky about the meaning of words.

That's gonna be a problem for Trump and the RNC then since the party platform is really just a simplified and shorter version of P2025.
Not everything or comment is a gotcha point. This is a discussion board.

Is that supposed to be hyperbolic? Republicans did campaign on reversing Roe and the SCOTUS does take luxury vacation gifts without reporting them. Now they've decided that receiving a gift after you've ruled favorably for a wealthy friend isn't bribery.

Yep.
It's been a bad few weeks for Biden supporters. It was already a main strategy, but now "orange man, bad" is the only strategy.
I will say that at this point, Trump and other Republicans including their party agenda and then said to leave it up to the states with no mention of a "national abortion ban". I recently saw Harris fear mongering about the "national abortion ban".
Trump has said he would support a national ban after 15 weeks, so maybe this is what Harris is talking about?
If Trump wins, Trump being the lying flip flopper that he is, just might go for a national abortion ban and then claim he never said he would leave it up to the states, be facted check that indeed he did, but people won't care, as long as he does their agenda. Rinse wash and repeat.

Were you making things up about me again? How can I be oblivious to something that is the most reported political story in the country today and that we've discussed in these threads? Or am I oblivious to those opinions in the same way you are oblivious of Trump's pathologic lying and the Republicans who are warning about Trump's threat to our republic?
We have lots of circumstantial evidence that Trump was involved in P2025. The fact that Trump's party platform is a shorter simplified version of P2025 doesn't really help Trump pretend like he doesn't influence party policy ideas. The fact that the majority of the Republicans who authored the blueprint either worked directly for Trump or worked in his administration is a difficult hurdle to overcome in spreading the narrative that Trump had no idea.
It's OK if you believe that the Republicans are going rogue now and aren't following Trump's lead anymore. People are allowed to believe all manner of unbelievable things like Trump was a great president or that the events of 010621 were nothing more that a protest.
