Roe v wade

Joe Biden down played his age at Tuesday's Democratic debate as he baffled viewers with a series of gaffes as he tried to explain his tax policy, attack Donald Trump's foreign policy, and caught himself before he claimed he ended Roe vs. Wade, the landmark case that legalized abortion in America. Biden, who's struggled to overcome a damaging narrative about his age after a series of mistakes on the campaign trail, left the audience with several head scratching moments in the second Democratic debate.  The former vice president, during an attack on his rivals Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, stopped himself just in time from making a claim about ending abortion in America.  'Senator Warren said we can't be running any vague campaigns. We've got to level with people. We've got to level with people and tell them exactly what we're going to do, how we're going to get it done, and if you can get it done. I'm going to say something that is probably going to offend … [Read more...] about Joe Biden gaffes his way through Democratic debate, promising to abolish AND double the same tax, and almost making the ultimate mistake by boasting he ‘put us in a position to end roe v’ before stopping abruptly

The gay husband of a Democratic presidential candidate, a born-again Christian pastor and a GOP-voting Army veteran: it doesn't take much to spot the odd brother out. Few were surprised, therefore, when Pete Buttigieg's spouse Chasten Glezman claimed he was disowned by his conservative older brothers and forced to flee his home after coming out at 18. But while the poignant backstory resonated with liberal voters and helped the South Bend, Indiana, mayor stand out among the crowded democratic 2020 field, it's now being denounced as a lie by Chasten's siblings. 'He was never shunned. He was never homeless. He had a home,' Dustin Glezman, 32, told DailyMailTV. 'When I read all this stuff, it's like I'm reading about someone else's family. I don’t recognize any of it.’ Dustin supplied DailyMailTV with an exclusive photo of himself, Chasten and eldest brother Rhyan, taken in 2010, about two years after Chasten supposedly alienated his family by revealing he was gay. … [Read more...] about EXCLUSIVE: ‘He was never shunned. He was never homeless.’ Pete Buttigieg’s brother-in-law says 2020 candidate’s husband is loved by his family and calls claims of a rift a ‘sob story’

Tulsi Gabbard defended herself Tuesday during the 2020 Democratic debate against claims she is a 'Russian asset.' The Hawaii Congresswoman and Iraq combat veteran was a forceful presence when the conversation on stage turned to foreign policy, specifically the situation in northern Syria following Donald Trump's withdrawal of U.S. forces there. 'First of all, we've got to understand the reality of the situation there, which is that the slaughter of the Kurds being done by Turkey is yet another negative consequence of the regime change war we've been waging in Syria,' Gabbard said. 'Donald Trump has the blood of the Kurds on his hand, but so do many of the politicians in our country from both parties who have supported this ongoing regime change war in Syria that started in 2011,' she continued, before blasting members of the 'mainstream media' who she said have been 'cheerleading this regime change war.' Gabbard traveled to Syria in January 2017 and met its dictator Bashar al-Assad. No … [Read more...] about I’m not a Russian asset! Tulsi Gabbard makes bizarre boast during 2020 debate as she accuses U.S. of trying to fight ‘regime change wars’ in the Middle East

“You can be sure I will fight tooth and nail to move Insatiable to a state that will protect our rights,” Alyssa Milano said recently, referencing her Netflix series that currently films in Georgia. From Orange is the New Black’s Uzo Aduba and Laverne Cox, to Don Cheadle, Amy Schumer and Alec Baldwin, the threat of Georgia’s “heartbeat bill” – which would ban abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected, around six weeks into pregnancy – has galvanised actors, activists and the creative industries to boycott the state. In a significant move, both Disney and Netflix are considering pulling productions out of Georgia. After a number of states – such as Alabama, Ohio, Mississippi, Kentucky and Missouri – attempted to roll back abortion rights, campaigners and prominent cultural figures across the world have been scrambling to use their power and status to fight back against the archaic anti-women proposals. But there is a wild … [Read more...] about The Derry Girls are right – a boycott won’t change Northern Ireland abortion law

More than three quarters of online requests to buy abortion drugs placed last year were made by people from states with laws that limit access to abortion, a new study suggests.  The greatest proportion of requests were made from Mississippi, where abortions are banned after 18 weeks of pregnancy, women must undergo ultrasounds and be offered to see the images and wait 24 hours after a consultation to have an abortion. Although requests came in from all 50 US states, the were next most common in Louisiana, Alabama, Tennessee and Texas.  Ordering the abortive drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol online can provide easier, cheaper and less stressful access to pregnancy termination for all women.  Despite studies finding that this form of abortion is both safe and effective for women who order the drugs online, it's hard to do so in the US, and most women must skirt the formal medical system and regulators if they want to order the pills.  But the University of Texas at … [Read more...] about 76% of online orders for abortion pills are made by women living in states like Mississippi, Texas and Alabama with strict laws for terminating pregnancy
