Alabama Attorney General Wants Women Who Use Abortion Pills Prosecuted


Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall has become the most prominent Republican official to date to suggest “pregnant women could be prosecuted for taking abortion pills.”  Marshall’s office suggested pregnant women could be prosecuted under a separate 2006 state law used to punish women for “drug consumption” during pregnancy.  The rise of abortion pills has been an especially sore point for many antiabortion advocates, who are frustrated by the fact that the overturning of Roe has not succeeded in completely halting all abortions in states where the procedure is banned.  Perhaps even more concerning - is the fact that many hard-core antiabortion advocates are now pressuring state officials nationwide to consider prosecuting women who’ve “already had abortions legally.”

What a terrific idea Attorney General Marshall!  I mean, since the war on drugs has always been such a resounding success, why not open up a brand new front on that war - around abortion pills?  Meanwhile, coming to an American state near you, the Republican Party of Alabama would like to welcome you to its new and improved “Life in Afghanistan-Themed Legislation.”

The thing is, after the recent Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, Republican leaders promised that “women really have nothing to fear.”  Now, not to be critical, but if memory serves me correctly, the Taliban made “that very same promise” when they came back into power.  I guess life is just full of coincidences.

Now, when we talk about banning abortion pills like those sent through the mail, that raises the question, “how would Republicans even enforce that?”  Will these fun-loving folks start monitoring pregnant women’s mailboxes?  Well, why not?  I mean, that’s the way these freedum-loving, anti-big government intrusion, MAGA folks roll.

Anyway, from a purely economic perspective, if abortion is totally banned in the US as Republicans wish, just imagine all of the money a guy like Herschel Walker could save every year.  Meanwhile, Attorney General Marshall is busy claiming Alabama is a “protector of unborn babies.”  No kidding?  Gee, that must be why Alabama has one of the nation’s highest infant mortality and morbidity rates.  They just love their babies to death!

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com

Trump Ordered by Jury to Pay E. Jean Carroll $83 Million

In his second trial in less than a year on the matter, a civil jury in Manhattan took only three hours to decide that disgraced former President Trump must pay $83.3 million in punitive and compensatory damages to rape victim and writer E. Jean Carroll in a drama that began in the dressing room of a New York City department store back in 1995. Gee whiz, $83 million?  Seems it turns out that even “when you're a star, they don't always let you do it.”  Anyway, so the Orange God used his big fat mouth to talk his way out of a $5 million judgment - and right into an $83 million judgment.  Now, that really takes some skill!  Talk about “The Art of the Deal!”  I’m totally impressed.  Why, its almost as if Mr. Trump and his militant, useless attorney don’t fully comprehend the basic point of “punitive damages.”   I mean, at this point, Trump defames Ms. Carroll so frequently, she’s almost gonna need to put up an electronic signboard to alert the court abo...
