Oh, sure. She was going to throw her boyfriend under the bus. Give me a break!

According to the articles he already threw himself under the bus by admitting to the rape and submitting to DNA analysis, so it doesn’t matter what she says. She could just be in denial.
If you think she’s such a bad mother as to defend her boyfriend, why not go further down the rabbit hole? Why not allege that she facilitated the sex in the first place? What if she’s not even the mother? Just because she claimed to be the mother to that reporter, that’s not actual evidence.
Never said it mattered. Only that her protective feelings for her (probable) boyfriend exceed those she has for her child.

No. That is not possible. Her daughter was impregnated, fingered him as the culprit, and he was arrested for it. She knows. Not to mention the likelihood that, if you read between the lines, he lives there.

A response to the media attacks on Thomas.
Regardless of where one stands on Justice Thomas’ personal or legal opinions, he is among the pantheon of black trailblazers throughout American history and is a model of integrity, scholarship, steadfastness, resilience, and commitment to the Constitution of the United States of America. For three decades Justice Thomas has served as a model for our children. He has long been honored and celebrated by black people in this country and his attackers do not speak for the majority of blacks.
He is entirely undeserving of the vitriol directed at him. Character assassination has become too convenient a tool for eviscerating those who dare dissent from the prevailing agenda, especially when it is a black man who is dissenting.
Bonus points for guessing the author before you click thru.

Abortions by phone. What could possibly be wrong with that?
Why are Texas Democrats so insistent on effecting what’s essentially a mini coup d’etat within their own state? State laws were properly enacted - either follow them, or get out of the state. Throwing a tantrum over not getting what you want is what 2 year olds do.
Edit:
Many will face financial barriers to arranging the lodging, childcare, and transportation necessary to get out-of-state. Additionally, some will face other barriers, such as immigration checkpoints
That’s a fantastic argument to win people over, that an immigration checkpoint might trip them up… (besides, exactly what states have checkpoints along their state borders with other states?)

There’s a Border Patrol checkpoint on the 5 freeway (in CA) between San Diego and Orange counties, ~65 miles north of the border with Mexico. Last I checked, everything within 100 miles of a border (so actual border plus the shores) is a “legal” immigration checkpoint. They don’t have to be along state borders.
The comment was they’re a barrier to “get out-of-state”. What you refer to has nothing to do with preventing interstate travel to get an abortion, and are just part of daily living as an illegal.

What a well written letter, and I was shocked by both the number and makeup of the signatories. I only guessed three of them.
I’m sure this letter got a lot of airtime on CNN, MsNBC, CBS,PBS,ABC, etc.
You asked about checkpoints with a quote about immigration checkpoints – I answered with an example. I would guess that those checkpoints can be a problem for anyone who tries to cross them without proof of legal residency.
I didn’t ask about checkpoints, I asked about checkpoints preventing people from getting out-of-state.
Regardless, this would make them as much a barrier for getting an abortion in-state as it is out-of-state. Its not specific to crossing state lines.

Why would they be along state borders?
So? There are checkpoints at the “official” entries to the U.S. from Mexico. If illegal aliens can easily avoid those checkpoints, why can’t an illegal alien who is 7 weeks pregnant avoid one on the 5? That can’t be an undue hardship. Otherwise she would find a doctor to kill the bay in San Diego. Alternatively, I’m sure that abortions are much more freely available in Mexico.
You may not have the wrong opinion on abortion online. Google knows best, and will be censoring YouTube accordingly.
They have been pretty aggressive about enforcing the government narrative lately via censorship at YouTube. For example, in the last several weeks numerous independent reporters / channels with coverage of Ukraine have been banned. Not for Ukraine coverage specifically (although they tend to be less enthusiastic about our involvement there and/or the Ukrainian military prospects than our Party Line), but they would go back 2 years to find some comment about covid that could be construed as medical misinformation and ban them for that. So it’s clear the government is intervening to try to control public opinion, and it sounds like they’re going to start doing around this issue as well.

This does not sound controversial to me. There’s a fine line between free speech and telling women they can stick a hanger into the hoohaa to abort.
Except there’s that phrase again - “false claims”. I dont trust anyone who claims to be censoring content based on ‘false claims’, because “false” is ever-increasingly being defined as anything contradicting one’s own beliefs. Even unsafe methods is a subjective standard - we now see pressure to allow abortions by telephone, which until a couple months ago was considered too unsafe. Does such talk get removed for being unsafe, or is it allowed to remain since it’s now been deemed the easiest way to circumvent state bans?

more outrage by the leftists in the media. Heh. The propagandist writer is a man named Dennis Young.

In case there was any doubt, Jim Harbaugh’s callous comments about abortion weren’t just the views he was comfortable expressing behind closed doors at religious events.
The Michigan football coach doubled down in an interview with ESPN published Tuesday, saying he believes pregnancies should be carried to term no matter the health risks to the pregnant person.
Double heh.
Edit. it will be interesting to see whether the woke Nazis at his current gig as head football coach with the University of Michigan will be able to force him out. I think his position is impregnable, so to speak, but who knows.

The 3-D chess question continues. Was the leaker a leftist or a conservative? my money is on leftist although the story indicates it backfired.
Chief Justice John Roberts privately lobbied fellow conservatives to save the constitutional right to abortion down to the bitter end, but May’s unprecedented leak of a draft opinion reversing Roe v. Wade made the effort all but impossible, multiple sources familiar with negotiations told CNN," Biskupic reports. "It appears unlikely that Roberts’ best prospect — Justice Brett Kavanaugh — was ever close to switching his earlier vote, despite Roberts’ attempts that continued through the final weeks of the session.
Biskupic explains, “Multiple sources told CNN that Roberts’ overtures this spring, particularly to Kavanaugh, raised fears among conservatives and hope among liberals that the chief could change the outcome in the most closely watched case in decades. Once the draft was published by Politico, conservatives pressed their colleagues to try to hasten release of the final decision, lest anything suddenly threaten their majority. Roberts’ persuasive efforts, difficult even from the start, were thwarted by the sudden public nature of the state of play. He can usually work in private, seeking and offering concessions, without anyone beyond the Court knowing how he or other individual justices have voted or what they may be writing. Kavanaugh had indicated, during December oral arguments, that he wanted to overturn Roe, and CNN learned that he voted that way in a private justices’ conference session soon afterward. But the 2018 appointee of former President Donald Trump, who had been confirmed by the Senate only after expressing respect for Roe , has wavered in the past and been open to Roberts’ persuasion.”
