Like abortions that should be a decision that a woman and her doctor makes.
Why is the party that hates regulations and big government doing this?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Because that's a lie they spin for their rube base.
It’s not a lie. Old school conservatives used that phrase to justify limited regulations on business. It was never about personal freedom.
Yeah, but see how they react to things like DEI at corporations or corporations like Bud Light being "woke".
Traditional conservatives are the ones painting their cans whatever colors will rake in more money, without donating the profits to an LGBTQ+ cause, because there’s no law requiring them to be ethical in business.
MAGA Republicans are the ones who get bent out of shape by wokeness and want to ban the rainbow.
They both suck, but for different reasons.
Nah, see. It's the ultimate small government, so small it can fit in your bedroom.
Because 100% of their branding is pure bullshit. They don't value families and they don't really believe in law and order, either. They also despise it when people are actually free.
Talkin' about it and being it are two different things...this bit of dialogue from Easy Rider is the crux of it, and always has been:
Neither the government nor anyone else should EVER be allowed to restrict medical care, treatments, medications, diagnoses, procedures, etc.
NEVER. Period.
Not only on ethical grounds, but Constitutional ones. The government does NOT have the Constitutional authority to impose limits on medical care. Period.
As far as I’m concerned, every single official involved in doing such should be forcibly removed and imprisoned for the rest of their natural lives. Violating our Constitutional rights and civil liberties on this scale is unforgivable. Not mincing words about this.
Republicans don't give a single fuck about the Constitution, civil rights, or giving medical care to anyone that isn't part of the oligarchy.
I agree. They have so thoroughly dismantled democracy that it’s time Americans take it back the way we did with the British.
These New Redcoats need to pay for their crimes against liberty, humanity, and the natural & Constitutional rights of American people.
Conceptually I agree with you. In practice I'm going to continue being despondent, angry, and depressed.
Yeah it's almost like the right to abortion being about privacy was the right call.
He also indicated he'd testify in the hush money trial, yet that didn't happen. Trump is so unpredictable...
Trump indicates he will do things he's not legally empowered to do, news at 11
