Just finished explaining to my daughter that she will no longer have health care as good as her brother's healthcare.

#Florida
#MinorityRule
#ForcedBirth
#Amendment4

So my minor part in the election in this VERY RED FL county, besides door hangers & postcards, is to put up & take down Dem signs at an early voting place, & sit by them & daily wave at voters coming & going. (Nobody wants the flyers).

I know early votes tend to be Dems but am here to warm yr heart by saying OUR PEOPLE ARE PUMPED & SHOWING UP & THUMBS UP! Very few Trumpers & those who are just avoid eye contact. Only a handful of assholes saying BS to us.
#Solidarity #HarrisWalz #Amendment4

Hey #Florida! Yes on 4! 4 for Freedom!
#Amendment4

Hey fellow Floridians! Don't vote to retain the judges on your 2024 ballot who argued against #Amendment4 or who support book banner culture & patriarchal steps backward. #WeWontGoBack

Cleanup on Aisle MAGA. -- Trump Bends to Conservative Abortion Critics

In the end, Donald Trump, a master of evasion, could only obfuscate for so long.

After hemming, hawing, avoiding, and rambling, he finally admitted Friday night that he opposes his home state’s abortion-rights ballot initiative.

Insiders had expected him to end up there.

️But Trump had shown a remarkable ability to just say nothing at all.

For months, he was coy about the Florida initiative, which would overrule the state’s current #six-#week #ban by creating a right to abortion in the state constitution.

He said he’d let his position be known at some point and then offered vague responses that didn’t address the fundamental, binary choice of which way he’d vote.

But pressure and anger mounted from social conservatives after he made muddled remarks to NBC that led to a conservative backlash.

And a day later, Friday, he finally made his position clear in a safe-space interview with Fox News.

He started by saying that while he would prefer to extend Florida’s cutoff so that abortions are permitted beyond six weeks
—“you need more time than six weeks”
—he has ultimately decided to vote against #Amendment4 because it would allow for later-term abortions, all the way through birth:
“The nine months is just a ridiculous situation, where you can do an abortion in the ninth month.”
“I’ll be voting no for that reason,” Trump said.

He then #falsely claimed that in “some of the states, like Minnesota, and other states, have it where you could actually execute the baby after birth.”

It was a major relief for evangelicals.
“#Mission #accomplished,” said an evangelical Trump confidant, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

#florida #FLSupremeCourt allows #abortionrights to be on fall ballot in FL, #Amendment4 #msnbc

Spare a thought for those of us in #Florida who await the decision of the #FLSupremeCourt about the fate of #Amendment4 , abortion rights, which we hope will be on the #ballot this fall. It is worded clearly & legally & has more signatures than it needs but we will know in about an hour whether the Court will follow the law or make up some BS to jam us.
