RupertKBD Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 This sucks for women in Arizona, but it has to be a huge boost to Democrat chances in the state. https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/08/us/arizona-supreme-court-abortion-access-tuesday/index.html Quote In a historic decision Tuesday, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled the state must adhere to a 123-year-old penal code provision barring all abortions except in cases when “it is necessary to save” a pregnant person’s life. The law, which can be traced to as early as 1864, also carried a prison sentence of two to five years for abortion providers. There is a 14-day stay on the law. The case is the latest high-profile example of the battle over abortion access that has played out across several states since Roe v. Wade was overturned by the US Supreme Court in 2022. Since that decision, nearly two dozen states have banned or limited access to the procedure. Providers have warned that restrictive policies on abortion access place patients at risk of poor health outcomes and doctors at risk of legal liability. It's one of those "be careful what you wish for" scenarios, IMO.....Republicans have been packing courts with Conservative judges, who seem determined to help them take the US back to the 1950's.... Meanwhile, they're handing the Democrats a weapon that might just be used to ensure they don't get the chance to do any further damage to the rights of people who don't fit within the Anglo-Saxon, middle-aged, white male demographic.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might have more influence outside of Zona though. I think there is polling that the majority is prochoice. The campaign to get abortion on the AZ ballot in November has cruised past the required number of signatures already even though their deadline is the beginning of July. Abortion has won handily wherever its been on the ballot since Roe was overturned. Even in Kansas. It being on the ballot in AZ and FL will only help Dems in those states. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey, at least he's "authentic" I'm concerned that the whole Palestine thing will turn away too many voters, which would be the dumbest thing they could do, so thats what I think could happen. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he will want the US to send arms, and probably want the "suckers" to invade for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertKBD Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 22 hours ago, nuckin_futz said: Hyping your own stock is frowned upon but necessarily illegal. Trump and Nunes' shares are restricted so they can pump but cannot dump. There aren't really any rules regarding the practice of "jaw boning" or talking a stock up. Analysts do it all the time issuing BS upgrades etc. If you actually pump a stock then dump that is illegal so long as your intent was to dupe people. Hard to prove unless you're dealing with idiots. There was a gang of nitwits with a huge Twitter following doing this 3 years ago. Some of you may remember a Twitter account "Zack Morris". He and his crew were doing just that. Loading up then issuing recommendations while all the lemmings piled in they were dumping on them. They made millions until they got caught. They were a little too brash posting pictures with cars and houses etc and even taunting the SEC by posting "SEC deez nutz". One of their crew could see it coming and took screen shots of them bragging about ripping people off. "Zack" is looking at at least 20 years in government housing. Interesting....so they can say they are debt free and have $200 million in cash and that's not illegal, even if it's not true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
