The Connection Between Abortion and Voting Rights with Renee Bracey Sherman

I think part of the IVF ban was in part to restrict gay couples from having children. If they can keep lesbians from becoming pregnant or allowing gay men from using surrogates, then they can have control over this demographic.

Ab0rtion is Muddr, guns keep dictators from gaining power, and Catholic virtue and holiness are more important than earth worship

Amazing conversation!

The connection between killing babies and voting rights with Renee Bracey Sherman

My partner and I waited in line outside for hours in sub-freezing temps to vote in the last presidential election. I guess I didn't realize that wasn't normal?

bro, we 100% love your work

Well done

Love

I propose we get young volunteers to stand in line for the people that can't do it themselves. They can be called when it gets close, so they can come retake their place. To ensure sincerity, have them make a deposit of a few dollars that will be returned when they take their place in line.

Fair trial? $$$

If they hate it so much, maybe they should swallow more often.

It’s a pretty good guess that between women and democracy the GOP hates women more. If we lived in a theocracy the GOP would not want it to be matriarchal.

In Canada it is a decision make between a doctor and his patient.

That mass are following a messianic leader full of cruelty in a circus of doom.

Our bodies; Ourselves.. You gals read that book. You are strong!

Although I am in favour of a woman's right to choose. Anyone who has had an abortion which wasn't an emergency will live with guilt and shame for the rest of their lives. It is a law of the universe, you cannot escape it and you cannot sugar-coat it.

Killing unborn children is bad. The person who started the abortion clinic did it to hurt the black community.

I don’t think the GOP gives a damm about abortion rights. But by using the policy it has attracted a large number of religious votes. So it’s all about numbers.

You did NOT make a complicated subject understandable. But, I gave you a thumbs up anyway because it's a topic that I think needs to be discussed more.

No matter what you do or say, as long as you dont fix the voting tabulators the votes will be changed every time by the criminal group working for trump and musk the rat

Such a beautiful print behind you

The politicians don’t have the will to represent Americans cause they are bought by corporations and the 1%. Lobby and corporate pac like AIPAC are so powerful they all have to support a genocide. Dem did nothing to protect reproductive freedom when they had the majority. It actually helps them when the people are suffering.

In the book by Daly, Ratf****ked he researched the origins of the small state voting strategy for republicans.Carl Rove and 5 repubs met to strategized the minority party ways to gain power. He realized that there are more small states with less population than big states. because every state has 2 senators and we have the electoral college, they do not need the popular vote, they just need the most states. The vote of a California person is worth 3/5 that of a Montana person.nationally. The right emotional hook is what Rove suggested wins votes. The hooks these 5 decided was abortion and guns. These were small issues. Abortion was a fringe Catholic movement. The NRA had gun safety classes . But push these as baby killing and 2nd amendment rights and everyone will vote !!!. Then because of computors it was much easier to track each voter in each address and target by gender and age. So effective 50 years later. State house then gerrymander than judges than Senate than house than president . The dems were steamrolled because they just fundraised the presidential race. Also read the article How Norway beat Facism. The non facists decided to forgo all smaller differences and issues for a few cycles of elections and VOTE ALL FACISTS OUT. IT WORKED. It would have only taken 1.5 % for Kamala to win. All issues are important and will still be there in 8 years. We can support each others issues later when we have a supportive government.

The GOP hates abortion until their mistress needs one.

It's all about controlling the populace.

Thank you, Marc. I have learned so much over the past 10 months or so that I have been subscribed. I have a question… would getting rid of the electoral college end the power of gerrymandering? And if so, why isn’t the Democratic Party really fighting to make this clear to the voters and come to fruition?

The republican party hates everything that doesn't directly line their pockets.

We know democrats are pissed they can't cheat. And we really don't give a shit. Your illegal voting base is being shipped out and your dead people are being removed from voting rolls. With voter ID and proof of citizenship a democrat may never see the Oval office again. So then they'll go back to telling us that black people and minorities in general are way too stupid to get voter ID like they did before.

Democrats just won't address the religion problem in this country. Too busy taking money from the churches I suspect.

In 1964 the voting right bill breaks down as so. 79% of the no vote in both House and Senate was from democrats , while Republicans were 82% of the yes vote in both the House and Senate. You didnt pass jack chit. The Republicans did. Blacks make up 13%+ of the population. But due to abortion they have never gone beyond that after over 100 years. Hispanics make up 20% and growing. The democrats have killed more blacks with abortion than they ever did during slavery and their KKK

I think they won because for the past four years they have been drumming crap in their followers like a freaking hymnal. Most people do not check out the truth. It starts off as a "joke" and becomes their anthem. Also people long for the "good old days" that will never come back. Donald Trump will feed on anything and anyone to get what he wants. Looks like he got it too, as he won't be held accountable for all his crimes.

Excellent guest and discussion on this subject!!!

People of all colors I'm finding out what it's like to be a slave that's why Donald Trump wants that wall not to keep them out but to keep you in

Brilliant💙💙💙💙💙

Thank you for all your hard work. Amazing!

Once people are given a certain freedom, it is really hard to take it back. Therefore there is a fight now to gain back such right.

Hoping that the Democrats emphasize this message more, in realation to how this affects our rights, not limited to women. I have heard that Trump is gaining support from Black and Hispanic men. Heard that on Scripps this morning. Also, Trump wants to deploy the military on Election Day.

Gosh, What a Great Video. So informative and True! We need we need to Pay Attention and Get out and Give Our Voteq💙💙🌊🌊💙💙🗳️🗳️

One of your best shows ever!!!! I already was strongly in favor of bodily autonomy rights but making this connection to MAGA’s intensified efforts to suppress voting has been so enlightening! Thank you and please make sure this gets widely aired - send it to Medas Touch, the Lincoln Project & David Pakman.

My signature is always different. I hope they havent been diswualifying my vote

If Alabama says an embryo is a life, what about when your average guy rubs one out? Seems the other part of the equation is being overlooked.

I appreciate your shows, Mark! Thanks for fighting for democracy and keeping us informed in a straightforward way ❤

Pro Life advocates have the right to not abort an abnormal fetus and EVERYONE has to pay for the care for that choice at the time of the hospitalization AND, if the baby survives, throughout the life of that individual once it's born. I don't want to pay for their misguided choices!

Both the anti-abortion movement, and the anti-voting rights movement impact women more than men...it's obvious with abortion, but it works almost as well for voting rights because women have not had any voting rights as long as men...their position is weaker and you notice that already the GOP is talking about disenfranchising women. They know that women are strong in the Democratic Party. So if you can gerrymander Dems, you get rid of a lot of women voters. The intrusion of male power politics, and male-dominated religion is combined with repeated statements that men have a natural right to vote (white men) but women don't....women should just do what their husbands tell them. Women should not hold government positions, women should not hold jobs men want. So I see this as an attack on women, first to last. And women are in the same category with LGBTQ. They--the white male power structure--want everypne else OUT of power, out of their way.

They use the abortion playbook an voting. Ok, now that we know how and why they do this, why can't we fix it so their movement is stopped and reversed. Find the cracks in their plan like they did and turn it on them. Only after we do this, permanently seal their cracks.

To get rid of the conflict involved with women's health care; is to understand human psychology. Women should not be getting vital heath care by going to a clinic that is labeled abortion center. This is lacking proper support services. This should be apart of a hospital full service care. In gym, Post partum / mental health counseling, contraceptive and such. Abortion is a service that is a small part of the health care provision, surrounding women's health.

It's a trap to use the term abortion as the ' go to ' word for women's health care. There are too many complications involved in providing safe health care. The word 'Abortion' has to be taken off the table without announcement. No one wants to go for an injection, or vaccination unless they are concerned that, they may suffer a worse situation. This is most likely the way people feel about terminating a pregnancy. To force that person to make a choice that someone else is deciding for them is to create PTSD for that person. Those women who became ill and even died should file law suits.
