This is bullshit. Selling the country out to Russia was bad enough. Believe it or not, this is worse. We don't hurt babies.

And PS.... all those 'pro life' hypocrites can go fuck themselves... they enabled this. And they've completely vanished as these horrific atrocities are being committed on their behalf.

more bullying I suspect. He's a fucking mobster.

They are not going to "pull the wool over our (those of us who are keeping track of this) eyes" on this, not on this, we are aware of what we are seeing and hearing. All it will take is some whistle blower and some pictures and that will crack everything open.
