My Body My choice . Budaatum what's wrong here.

2023. The House passed the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which says any infant born alive after an attempted abortion is a "legal person for all purposes under the laws of the United States." Doctors would be required to care for those infants as a "reasonably diligent and conscientious health care practitioner would render to any other child born alive."
The bill passed 220-210, and all 210 of the "no" votes came from Democrats. Only one Democrat voted for the bill — Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas — and one other Democrat, Rep. Vicente Gonzalez of Texas, voted "present."


The Bill passed the house.
100% of the 210 Nay votes from democrats.
Democrats don't want a baby who survives abortion to be allowed to live. In that case they want a post birth abortion. Can't figure out why.

I've not checked the Bills progress in the Schumer controlled senate.

who is talking about you here? I am talking about the Palestinians. Since they refused to live in peace with their neighbors for a land they don't own, they started a civil war this is why the two-state solution came into play... Arab state and Jewish State. The Jews Accepted and their independence was established, but the Arabs rejected hoping to take everything. they lost even more since then.
The Jews have always prayed facing Jerusalem for millinea while in exile.
We know that the qibla was Jerusalem first but once the Jews refused, it was changed.The direction of prayer was 'corrected' in a revelation. I won't get into that.
The Jews in exile started buying up land in Israel under the Zionist movement from the Ottoman and Arabs in Israel from the 1850s.They developed the kibbutz system, Arabs flocked there to look for work.
After Holocaust Jews moved in en mass.At Israel declaration almost all Jews 800K were expelled from surrounding Arab countries, Egypt Iraq, Syria, Iraq, Saudi, Tunisia, Algeria etc. Israel resettled them with no problems. Going as far as to airlift Ethiopian Jewry to Israel.
As for Arabs who fled the war, they were never resettled by their brothers. No Arab country wants to assimilate them like Israel did to their exiled Jews, the Palestinians brazenly lie about being descendants of the ancient Philistines. Those who never fled the 1948 war today are Israel Arabs with full citizenship rights ,serve in the Knesset, have equal opportunities and are 20% of the population. The Druze in north Eastern part are full Israel citizens who willingly serve in the army. The Israeli Arabs and the Druze would never accept to relinquish Israel citizenship for Palestinian.
That says it all.
We only hear of those oppressed Arabs now known as Palestinians who caused problems in Lebanon, were expelled from Jordan and also Kuwaiti. They were notorious in airplanes hijack

France.

Socialist leader Raphaël Glucksmann:
“‘The only thing that matters to me is that the National Rally doesn’t win the elections and won’t govern the country. […] We can’t leave France to the Le Pen family’, he said


Sounds familiar. They know what's best for the people.
Better they just use AI to determine the next leader instead of having elections. Win win .

so why did you say this in bold?

Before 1948, there was a civil WAR. The Israeli struggle did not start when they got their independence
Some back and forth with some people come up because they have to take the opposite position regardless.
On the Israeli Arab conflict, they have outright anti Israel bias. They only know the history from the Arabian perspective. They spout off propaganda disseminated by one side. Unlike you who has looked at both perspectives and drawn your own conclusion.
It boils down to anti semitism from the likes of Budaatum and ijebosb.

Why are you explaining to me what a "'Basilico' was in the singular" to explain my view of "Basilico in the plural"?

If I am not afraid of plural Basilcos, would I be afraid of a single one of them?

Perhaps you'd let me define plural maga basilicos since it is a word I made up and used, instead of you defining my word for me.

I am telling you that when I, buda, say Maga Basilicos, I, buda, mean, everyone, including the grifter and their leaders and the 6-3 and the pope and God and everyone else who wants to my body their choice.

And I am also telling you that I have no reason to be scared of any of them because I got very strong hard working persevering dedicated you and all the other ijebosbs fiercely fighting on mine and other womens' behalf and I have immense faith and confidence in your success.

Alex Jones today ordered to liquidate his personal assets to pay $1.5B to Sandy Hook victims.

Steve Bannon ordered to report to jail on July 1 for 4 months although his appeal is pending. Steve Bannon refused to testify before J6 committee citing Trump invocation of Executive Privellege. Ditto Navarro who is currently in jail 4 months sentence by leftist DC judges while DC courts slow walks his appeal
Nota Bene : Garland refused to release jB interview tapes to House Committee citing Biden executive privellege, though the transcribed interview (doctored? ) was released.

Was going to wait until Scotland survived Germany but its looking like they won't.

If people had come from elsewhere to the area called Nigeria and occupied the land and have now become the majority race, all the indigenous tribes that are left in those areas would be yelling #landback, and we might be yelling it as forcefully if not more than Israel is illegally yelling it at Palestine.

Basically, I see it internationally. And it's similar to descendants of slaves asking for lifeback, or at least to be paid for the stolen labour of their ancestors.
Turkey invaded and occupied Northern part of Cyprus in 1974.

according to documents obtained by Judicial Watch.

Commander Biden, a two-year-old German Shepherd, was removed from the White House in October after the dog reportedly committed 11 biting incidents. On top of previous reporting, it was later revealed that the dog had bitten Secret Service officers at least 24 times, even drawing blood in some instances. In at least three Commander attacks on agents, the president was present

Hunter Sues.....
.....lawsuit filed in federal court in California, Hunter Biden accuses Giuliani and Robert Costello of spending years “hacking into, tampering with, manipulating, copying, disseminating, and generally obsessing over data that they were given that was taken or stolen from” his devices


Today

Hunter Biden is dropping his lawsuit accusing Rudy Giuliani and the former New York City mayor’s ex-lawyer of manipulating data found on his infamous laptop.

Biden’s lawyer Abbe Lowell filed the stipulation for dismissal Thursday in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York.

The attorney asked the court to dismiss the lawsuit against Giuliani and Robert Costello “without prejudice, with each party bearing its own attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses.”


Obviously lawsuit cost Giuliani tons of cash. FBI authenticated the laptop contents in the trial.
That's the meaning of lawfare.

This went down at house hearing yesterday.

Timeline of Trump inquisition.

September 9, 2022: President Biden made a divisive comment about ensuring Trump does not become president again, which many interpret as a call to action against Trump’s political future

November 7, 2022: Trump teases a major announcement, hinting at his potential run in the 2024 election.

November 15, 2022: Trump officially announces his candidacy for the 2024 presidential race.

November 18, 2022: Key events unfold that suggest a coordinated effort to target Trump:

Matthew Colangelo, Joe Biden’s third-highest-ranking DOJ official, resigns and within days, joins Bragg’s office, a move that raises numerous eyebrows regarding its propriety and timing.
On the same day, Attorney General Merrick Garland appoints Jack Smith to oversee federal cases against Trump in a move that coincides suspiciously with other developments.
Nathan Wade, linked to another prosecutor targeting Trump, spends extensive time at the White House, further implicating direct connections.
December 2, 2022: Matthew Colangelo decided to join the office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, starting his new position on December 5.
