Except it's accurate.
Women who are married are worried about their kids. Unmarried men are worried about the country. Married men are worried about both.
Unmarried women want to murder their inconvenient babies more than they care about liberty, freedom, or the economy.

So, "moderators" and "cut his mic" are trending. Because these mods are, again, biased as all hell and even broke their own rules, then cut his mic when he was explaining and fact checking THEM.

What did SCOTUS rule?
I swear not one of you leftists even knows.
The ruling said the injunction preventing the feds from removing barriers (set by a lower court) is vacated. That means the feds can remove barricades.
NO PART OF THE RULING said Texas cannot put up barricades.

The thing a lot of progressives don't get is conservatives DO care about women. And can at least define the word.
They're probably a bit too overprotective of them, but they don't want them hurt or abused. And other than abortion, no rights issues. AND are accommodating on that.

2) Not sure about NY, but Cali (supposedly) has a non-partisan distracting committee. This means they aren't allowed to redraw the lines now for partisan Democrat gains. (In reality, Cali's gerrymandered already; 33%R but only 17% of its districts are Red)

Jan 6th was a riot, not an impeachable offense. Especially since Trump was telling people to be peaceful and not riot.
It certainly wasn't an insurrection, and to date, no one has been charged with the crime of insurrection by federal prosecutors.

Her being a "minority" and "LGBT" is irrelevant. I'm sorry, those things aren't a free pass to do whatever you want NOR are they valid rebuttals to someone making a solid point.

That ignores: "among the unvaccinated with a previous infection, the COVID-19 rate was 29 times lower in (Ca) and 14.7 times lower in (NY)", compared with "vaccinated with no previous infection were 6.2 times lower in (Ca) and 4.5 times lower in (NY)"

"assault weapons" weren't stated because "assault weapons" is a made up term that doesn't exist.
However, the 2nd Amendment very clearly mentions "arms" and says they "shall not be infringed", which would make it inclusive of all arms. Thus including assault rifles, etc.

No, but you also don't make a bunch of demands on guests in your house that they do not wish to do.
Replace "put a mask on"/"take the shoes off" with "strip naked or leave" and you'll see how quickly your comparison falls apart. If someone DEMANDED I strip, I'd leave their home.

Well, it may not be AIDS but be..technically AIDS.

If the shots damage your immune system, that's TECHNICALLY it.

My one issue is women allowed it. In an effort to be nice, they told men who stood up against this they were transphobes and bigots.

Let's see, "desperate attempt" is not an objective statement. It is subjective, and very likely a lie. Trump has not been proven to have "tried to overthrow the results" of the 2020 election, either. So that is ALSO an alleged lie at this time.

False:
