Since Texas state officials haven't figured out how to control all women's bodies yet, they'll violate the constitutional right to travel (Article IV, Section 2).
If you're a Louisiana resident, you have the right to travel to New Mexico for abortion care. Texas counties can't decide you can't use their roads.
Some Texas women – conservative Republicans – who hold local public office don't want travel restricted in their towns. Extremists want these laws badly.

@knittingknots2@mstdn.social They are trying to set a self advantageous standard, one of flexing power over others. This is the GOO version of Fool’d Ya small, live and let live Govt. 🥸

There's a new Rudy Giuliani scandal. An FBI whistleblower says Giuliani, when he was digging for dirt on Biden for Trump, was co-opted by Russian intelligence. He claims his investigation of Giuliani's activities was blocked by higher-ups. Check out this piece by Dan Friedman and me.

@nedhamson …and mushrooms can fool ya, just like the GOP with their minions. 🤔I had a great Uncle who lived in the backwoods of WVa, a seasoned hand at wild mushroom collecting who nearly died after being poisoned by what he collected. It is possible he got a little too complacent.

Mushroom poisonings are up in France - and it’s all due to the weather https://www.euronews.com/2023/09/01/mushroom-poisonings-are-up-in-france-and-its-all-due-to-the-weather
@SirTapTap@mastodon.social why not just shoot them yourself, save $ and claim it was an accident? 😳 https://www.pennlive.com/crime/2023/08/woman-claiming-to-teach-gun-safety-shoots-kills-4-year-old-girl.html Or you were cleaning your gun while it was loaded and it accidentally discharged? 😬https://news.yahoo.com/mother-shoots-her-4-old-191304089.html You can’t make this shit up. These would be outstanding Darwin Awards if these idiots had shot themselves. 🤔

Ruh-roh: there's an elephant in the living room for Republicans vis-a-vis TimScott:
"In their desperate quest to find a 2024 alternative to former President Donald Trump, GOP donors have stumbled upon an elephant in the room: Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina is single.
That fact, long known among casual political observers, has suddenly sparked “curiosity” and a round of pearl-clutching among the GOP's well-heeled donors…."
@marc_w There was some talk of viable mastadon DNA to bring them back to life. Has that gone anywhere? 🤔

Happy Friday, folks. Been a bit of a rocky road here at House Appel the last few weeks, but looks like we get at least a few days of easy going. Let's try to be as excellent to one another as we can, eh?

Infuriating, NPR joins CNN & other media outlets to ridicule Pres Biden for nonsense. He's taking the shorter stairs more frequently since he had a fall. FDR was in a wheelchair, Gov Abbott uses one too -makes no difference in the way they govern. #RWMedia #BidenHarris2024 "Very few people have noticed that he's mostly using the smaller stairs-But everybody's going to notice if there's a really bad slip & fall down the tall air-stairs." Why Biden is now routinely taking: https://www.npr.org/2023/08/31/1196803354/biden-air-force-one-short-stairs

@Miriamm Somewhere between 60 and 70 should be the cut off for holding elected office. They can retire like everyone else… who can afford to retire. 🤔
