Pay attention, women: If they'll let you die from a miscarriage, they sure as hell aren't going to let you go to Town Hall and have the "wrong" opinion.
The delight on these villainsβ faces. Every policy is intentionally cruel and benefits only rich white men, or 1 out of the 3 pictured here. This administration fiddles while everything else burns.
