Abortion Executions?

from The Young Turks · host TYT Network

Congress and top Capitol Hill staff have violated the STOCK Act hundreds of times, but the consequences are minimal, inconsistent, and not recorded publicly. Sen. Joe Manchin vented his anger with the media in the wake of a report that he wanted to drop the child tax credit from President Biden’s expansive climate and social spending package. With the Supreme Court now considering Mississippi’s abortion after 15 weeks, and apparently open to rolling back half a century of reproductive rights, conservative Republicans in other states are pushing even more extreme bills -- and some big corporations are helping them. Nikki Fried, Florida's agriculture commissioner and a Democratic candidate for governor, has accused Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis of trying to leverage campaign donations over members of the Florida public university system's boards of trustees. Hosts: Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur Hosted on Acast.
