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.

MAGA method of casting aspersions on people you don't know.  I think they're. ajproty of Democrats are fine with the illegals being deported but not ALL illegals.  Why does your party insist on deporting dreamers?  I can't get past that one.  Otherwise, I want criminal background checks on those that come here legally.  However, how can we do that .  I mean the actual mechanics of getting records from uncooperative countries etc.  Should we just let white Europeans in?  But we have drifted away from the true intension of amnesty and it's relationship to politicL persecution to just letting everyone at a border crossing come in with the claim of nasty.  Wait!  Didn't we attempt to do something about that but the Republicans shot it down?  If we can't get any cooperation from the other party, hiw can anything  be accomplished, ever?  Complain to your own party.  They're the ones holding up progress.

Border was as secure as it's ever been under Trump.  Biden comes in and on day 1 starts undoing his policies.  Ends up opening the border with 90 something executive actions.  The border explodes.  And it's Trump and the Republican's fault? 

LOL.  The American people aren't buying it.

It's certainly Trump's fault that a conservative border bill was cast aside.

It was a crappy bill.  So, if he stopped it, more reason to vote for him.

Keep repeating that, it's bound to make one feel better about the hypocrisy.  It doesn't seem to to be playing that way for most Americans.  I guess we'll know in November.

Oops. The Trump endorsed candidate burned himself, perhaps by leaning against a hot truck.  It sounds like he'll be campaigning as normal.

Another martyr is created to help motivate the right wing extremists.  Hopefully, this will cool the aggression.  It will very possibly result in an escalation.  Right wing extremism is very invested in retribution and revenge.

How can it be that one would not remove his hand from a hot object before doing any damage serious enough for a hospital?  Too much Jack Daniels?

FBI has not fully determine their political leanings nor reasons for assassination attempts per Congressional hearings I've watched.  1st was registered Republican.  2nd per PolitiFact:  " Ryan Wesley Routh registered as a Democrat in Guilford County, North Carolina, in 1988. In 2002, he changed his party affiliation status to "unaffiliated,” which he has since maintained."
