(WPDE) — A new bill introduced in the South Carolina Statehouse could put the death penalty on the table for women who get an abortion.
House Bill 3549 is an amendment to the South Carolina Prenatal Equal Protection Act of 2023 and would define "person" to include an unborn child at any stage of development. This would ensure that an unborn child who is a "victim of homicide" or "victim of assault" is given the same protections under state laws -- including, up to the death penalty.

All getting a bit Handmaids Tale isn’t it.
We used to go to South Carolina to golf every couple of years. Last time we stayed in a nice upmarket beach area just south of Myrtle Beach. 30 mins after we were in local Walmarts for some beer it was held up by two gun totting crackheads at 4pm in the afternoon on a nice sunny day. Great state, great scenery and great golf with mostly friendly people but has its more than far share of complete and utterTrump loving, gun carrying morons! Not going back.
Nearly eight years after the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage and several months after Congress codified gay nuptials, Iowa legislators proposed banning such unions in their state constitution.
“In accordance with the laws of nature and nature’s God, the state of Iowa recognizes the definition of marriage to be the solemnized union between one human biological male and one human biological female,” says the joint resolution, introduced Tuesday by eight Republican members of the state House.

GOP are heading back to the stone age....
Unfair.
Many Stone Age cultures revered, nay worshipped even, women in the form of a mother goddess type.

I fucking loathe Faux News for the damage they do to ordinary, good people with their toxic lies. I hope they get sued into oblivion by this woman and others (including Dominion) that they've harmed.
What's the 'misinformation' and 'propaganda' Fox accused her of spreading? Or maybe she was challenging their BS and they never actually mentioned anything specific, just attacked?

Nothing at all, afaik. Her only "crime" seems to have been accepting the job, which the Faux disinfo grifters immediately latched onto as some sort of proof that she was hell bent on censoring everything, and when they presumably got outraged feedback from their dullard audience they decided to run with it. After all, it's about giving your sucker consumers what they want. It's all about the green. Who gives a fuck about collateral damage in Murdoch World?
Meanwhile in Florida, De Santis is in full dictator mode, and trying to legislate any views that don't conform to his Christofascist stance out of existence, and really going.fprthe trans community.

I don't know what the others are about, but there isn't as such a bill to ban Democrats running candidates in Florida. There notionally is, but the point the sponsor is making (and it's not a great one) is if statues need to be taken down because a long time ago there was an association with slavery why not the Democratic Party? It's not a serious piece of legislation, it's a media/societal talking point put forward by someone who in theory has some actual important work to be doing and has done this instead

Mind you if organisations are held answerable for their past misdeeds it would be interesting to know if the Democratic Party has apologised for its role in the South.

Seeing this response got me thinking... maybe a big chunk of die-hard Trump supporters, well, died as a result of his super-spreader rallies?
So now it is Pence who is responsible for the 6 Jan insurrection.
DAVENPORT, Iowa — Donald Trump on Monday sharply rebuked Mike Pence’s assertion that history would hold him accountable for the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, telling reporters that his former vice president should shoulder the blame for the violent riot that day by Trump’s supporters.
“Had he sent the votes back to the legislatures, they wouldn’t have had a problem with Jan. 6, so in many ways you can blame him for Jan. 6,” the former president said, referring to Pence’s refusal to reject the electoral college votes in Congress as Trump wanted him to do that day. “Had he sent them back to Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, the states, I believe, number one, you would have had a different outcome. But I also believe you wouldn’t have had ‘Jan. 6’ as we call it.”

MAGA lunacy?
Some clips from MTGs tweet about the national divorce...
We would immediately alleviate the need for departments like the Department of Education.
States would have full control of their public education.
Education would look different all over the country.
In red states, there would be varying degrees of more traditional public education, charter schools, homeschooling, technical training, and college and universities.
Red states would likely ban all gender lies and confusing theories, Drag Queen story times, and LGBTQ indoctrinating teachers, and China’s money and influence in our education while blue states could have government controlled gender transition schools.
Red state schools would bring back prayer in school and require every student to stand for the national anthem and pledge of allegiance while blue states would likely eliminate the anthem and pledge all together and replace them with anthems and pledges to identity ideologies like the Trans flag and BLM.
Perhaps some blue states would even likely have government funded Antifa communists training schools. I mean elected Democrats already support Antifa, so why not.
Red states would maintain the truth that there are only two genders and would require the biological identity of each person’s gender on their identification, not how the person identifies.
If you choose to identify differently you can, but if you want it on legal record you’ll need to move to a blue state in order to be legally free to lie to yourself and others about your identity.
Red states would be completely free to build and use fossil fuel energy for their citizens.
Oil, natural gas, clean coal, and nuclear power would very likely be growing strong energy sources for red states.
Red states would be free from complying to green new deal regulations, but obviously all states would still have to comply with certain environmental protective requirements.
We love freedom to consume the energy we choose but not pollution, and just to be clear carbon is not pollution.
Red states would also support citizen’s right to bear arms and self defense.
In red states, law abiding gun owners wouldn’t go to jail for shooting an attacker, their right to self defense and defense of property would be protected.
And in blue states, they would immediately disarm their citizens of course because those bad guns get up and kill people by themselves all the time.
I'd almost be fun to see how the 'Heartland' would fare without Blue state / city money.
On the one hand it'd be nice to leave this pond scum in Congress, metastasizing into the rest of the GOP, but with them having such a slim majority in the house, should they just give the Secret Service/DoJ a kick up the hole & ask them how much evidence they need to indict the prick ?
Britain's Trump may catch a break next week, as the original Trump gets to finally do a "Perp Walk" !!!
Multiple reports that Law Enforcement agencies are now working out the logistics, & security around bringing the orange sack of shit up to NY, to be formally arrested & to finally stand in front of a Judge ....
.... shame it's just going to be for the campaign finance fraud, & possibly obstruction, associated with the payoff to Stormy Daniels
OUR NATION IS NOW THIRD WORLD & DYING. THE AMERICAN DREAM IS DEAD! THE RADICAL LEFT ANARCHISTS HAVE STOLLEN OUR PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, AND WITH IT, THE HEART OF OUR OUR COUNTRY. AMERICAN PATRIOTS ARE BEING ARRESTED & HELD IN CAPTIVITY LIKE ANIMALS, WHILE CRIMINALS & LEFTIST THUGS ARE ALLOWED TO ROAM THE STREETS, KILLING & BURNING WITH NO RETRIBUTION. MILLIONS ARE FLOODING THROUGH OUR OPEN BOARDERS, MANY FROM PRISONS & MENTAL INSTITUTIONS. CRIME & INFLATION ARE DESTROYING OUR VERY WAY OF LIFE..Page 2: NOW ILLEGAL LEAKS FROM A CORRUPT & HIGHLY POLITICAL MANHATTAN DISTRICT ATTORNEYS OFFICE, WHICH HAS ALLOWED NEW RECORDS TO BE SET IN VIOLENT CRIME & WHOSE LEADER IS FUNDED BY GEORGE SOROS, INDICATE THAT, WITH NO CRIME BEING ABLE TO BE PROVEN, & BASED ON AN OLD & FULLY DEBUNKED (BY NUMEROUS OTHER PROSECUTORS!) FAIRYTALE, THE FAR & AWAY LEADING REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE & FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, WILL BE ARRESTED ON TUESDAY OF NEXT WEEK. PROTEST, TAKE OUR NATION BACK!.[/quote]
And there you have it.... Another call for civil unrest amongst his brain dead followers.........

Former US President Donald Trump says he is expecting to be arrested on Tuesday in a case about alleged hush money paid to an ex-porn star.
Mr Trump called on his supporters to protest against such a move in a post on his Truth Social platform.
One of Mr Trump's lawyers said his claim was based on media reports that he could be indicted next week.
If Mr Trump is indicted, it would be the first criminal case ever brought against a former US president.
It would also have serious ramifications for his campaign to become the Republican nominee for president in the 2024 presidential election.
For five years, prosecutors in New York have been investigating allegations that hush money was paid on Mr Trump's behalf to former porn star Stormy Daniels prior to the 2016 presidential election.
Ms Daniels says she was paid $130,000 (£107,000) by Mr Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen before the 2016 election in exchange for silence about an alleged affair. Mr Trump denies they had sexual relations and has dismissed the case as being politically motivated.
It is one of several cases in which the 76-year-old is currently being investigated, although he has not yet been charged in any and denies wrongdoing in each.
How the Trump-Stormy Daniels saga unfolded
Trump's four biggest legal problems
On Saturday Mr Trump wrote on his social networking site Truth Social that "illegal leaks" from the Manhattan district attorney's office "indicate" he would be arrested on Tuesday.
The district attorney's office has not yet commented. Mr Trump's lawyer, Susan Necheles, told the BBC's US partner CBS News that his post was "based on media reports".
The case of Stormy Daniels is one of several legal woes facing the former US president
"Since this is a political prosecution, the district attorney's office has engaged in a practice of leaking everything to the press, rather than communicating with President Trump's attorneys as would be done in a normal case," she said.
US media organisations say law enforcement agencies in New York are preparing for the possibility of Mr Trump being indicted and appearing in a Manhattan courtroom as early as next week.
There were signs the Stormy Daniels case was progressing when earlier this month, Mr Trump was invited to testify to a grand jury - which determines whether there is enough evidence to pursue charges in a case.
The hearings are held in secret and several former aides of Mr Trump have reportedly testified in this case.
Experts suggest the offer to testify indicates he could soon face criminal charges - but it is not clear what these could be.
According to the Associated Press, law enforcement officials are considering the practicalities of taking a former president into court, including questions around security.
Another lawyer for Mr Trump, Joseph Tacopina, told the news agency "we will follow the normal procedures" if he is indicted.
I'd be shocked if his lawyers haven't been told he is to be arrested, & are offering him the undeserved courtesy of allowing the piece of shit to present himself to the NYPD, & be arrested, without the worlds press watching.
After his latest screed, I think he deserves to be dragged out of his bed at at 4am, cuffed, & thrown in the back of a squad car, like an old episode of Cops.
Apparently Trumps lawyers say they haven't heard anything at all re his impending arrest. It now appears the 'illegal leaks' are all coming from Trump himself!
We can now look forward to the very dignified discussion between opposing attorneys debating whether the porn actress's description of the Ex-Presidents todger is accurate enough, to confirm she was porked with the said member
The Evangelicals are finally going to have to justify their support of the least Christian candidate the GOP has ever put forward, & if they have even 1% of a shred of authenticity in their faith, they'll drop him like a radioactive ball of shite
