Watching @joyannreid on #MSNBC cover some states' positions of not just wanting criminal penalties for abortions, but including the death penalty among possible penalties, and I literally cannot fucking process what is on TV. #Politics is tricky but this is *different*. Like a state rep saying a child dying of abuse is not good for the child but a benefit for society because lifelong services won't need to be paid for. There is a newly naked cruelty.

Me and the Universe hold you innocent of that monster being in elected office.
@publickovacs so much appreciated. This was just his latest. How do we get rid of him if they keep voting him in?

Listen, I live in MO, so I am putatively represented by soulless mofos both in the state and in Congress. I don't have an easy answer. I do, however, think that media savvy pressure campaigns are on the path to an answer, for your state and mine. We just have to find left leaning folks with enough spoons...

Good Goddess I am so sorry
