QuoteThe 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.
subee said:Did you hear anything referring to Fred marching with the Nazis in Skokie? Back before 2016, someone posted what purported to be a picture of him with the marchers and it looked exactly like him and we know he was a rampant racist, but, of course, his likeness couldn't reach anything evidentiary. The new movie about Trump and his relationship with his lawyer, Roy Cohn, will address his court case re: racial profiling the applicants for his Lefrak City apartments in Queens. People who don't remember that case will not know the ending so I won't spoil it for those too incurious to read about it.
In answer to your question, no - or at least not yet. So far most of the info on Fred has focussed on his business and his cozy relationship with New York democrats.
Unless Fred did business with the American Nazi party, Skokie might not be mentioned except in passing. The book is looking at how trump got his money and how he wasted almost all of it before his tv show pulled him out of the hole.

Multiple failures. Poor communication.
"Rowe cited "complacency" from other agents, flaws in advanced planning, as well as over-reliance on mobile devices."
I still think that this is Trump's influence on the team which manages his security. Trump has a corrupting influence on people and groups which spend the most time with him. It's a pattern.

And it was bright sunny and clear skies. Ideal conditions for the shooter. No doubt another contribution from Trump that almost cost him his life.
Just heard of another probable lynching, this time in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. An 18 year old kid was found hanging from a tree across from a black elementary school. Law enforcement is calling this one "self-inflicted", just like Javion Magee in North Carolina. The young'un's name hasn't been released yet.
Which candidate has been cozying up to white supremacists since the 2015 presidential campaign? Who stands to benefit from a race war? Who gains from terrorizing communities of color?
No wonder the trump campaign has been howling so loudly about democrats' rhetoric. Once again, accusation equals confession. I shoulda known. "Stand down and stand by". Feh!
Thank Hecate that my half-black Marine son and his kids know how to handle themselves in a fight. Their motto: don't start none, won't be none.

Oh, really? You "just heard"? From where? What radical leftist source led you to believe it was a "probable lynching"? Do you even know if the victim was black?
Yes, local law enforcement, under a black police chief, is saying no foul play suspected. And as it being a suicide, his/her name won't be released. So, we won't know any details about the victim.
TDS is still rampant.
[[“We are unwilling on these facts to disenfranchise voters en masse from participating in state contests,” Chief Justice Ann Scott Timmer wrote in the ruling.
Of the nearly 98,000 affected voters, most of them reside in Maricopa County, which is home to Phoenix, and are longtime state residents who range in age from 45 to 60. About 37% of them are registered Republicans, about 27% are registered Democrats and the rest are independents or affiliated with minor parties.]]
[[That number of votes could tip the scales in hotly contested races for the state Legislature, where Republicans hold a slim majority in both chambers.
Voters also are deciding on the constitutional right to abortion and on a state law that would criminalize noncitizens for entering Arizona through Mexico at any location other than a port of entry.]]
More democracy please.
《Likening people in the U.S. illegally to "human locusts,” Zuchowski wrote on a personal Facebook account and his campaign's account: "When people ask me... What's gonna happen if the Flip-Flopping, Laughing Hyena Wins? I say ... write down all the addresses of the people who had her signs in their yards!” That way, Zuchowski continued, when migrants need places to live, "we'll already have the addresses of their New families ... who supported their arrival!”》
Nice.
What kind of people campaign on dehumanizing their political opponents?
