A Tennessee woman was denied prenatal care by her doctor because she is "unwed."
Let's be clear: the Republican agenda is not pro-life or pro-family.
If it were, pregnant women wouldn't be forced to flee their home states to get basic prenatal care.

South Park used its first new episode in two years to openly ridicule President Trump and Paramount, their own parent company. The episode, titled “Sermon on the Mount,” parodies much of the president’s first six months, portraying him literally in bed with Satan.

Vought wants to dismantle our gov and rebuild it into a dictatorship. His weapon is a fringe legal theory called the “unitary executive.” It claims the president should control the entire executive branch, with 🚫✅s from Congress, no independence for the courts, and no oversight from watchdogs. ❌👑.
