Flint - One of two consultants being sued in federal court (click here) for its role in the Flint water crisis says it’s committed to bringing former Gov. Rick Snyder to the stand as it rolls out its case to the jury.

Mike Brown, a spokesman for Veolia North America, made the comment in a statement to MLive-The Flint Journal, criticizing attorneys for four Flint children who are suing the company for failing to call Snyder as a witness before resting their case....

One way or another, (click here) Rick Snyder will answer questions under oath about his role in the Flint water crisis in a federal courtroom on June 30.

And if, as expected, the former governor invokes his Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate himself, attorneys involved in the civil bellwether trial will turn to the next-best thing -- hours of previously unheard videotaped deposition testimony given by Snyder two years ago....

Former vice president Mike Pence (click here) vowed Friday that “we must not rest” until abortion is outlawed in every state in the country, pushing for legislative action in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn nationwide protection for abortion rights.

“Now that Roe v. Wade has been consigned to the ash heap of history, a new arena in the cause of life has emerged, and it is incumbent on all who cherish the sanctity of life to resolve that we will take the defense of the unborn and the support for women in crisis pregnancy centers to every state in America,” Pence said in an interview with the far-right media outlet Breitbart News. “Having been given this second chance for Life, we must not rest and must not relent until the sanctity of life is restored to the center of American law in every state in the land.”...

They got what they wanted so what are they going to do for donations? I suppose the White Supremacists that aren't in jail is a possible reason for the Republican Party.

The Supreme Court is anti-woman and anti-childhood. Article below is available on J-Stor (click here).

These rights have far reaching consequences. Roe v. Wade was necessary for many reasons. 
















Adoption is big business.

January 1, 2003
By Marianna Bitler and Madeline Zavddny

CONTEXT: The legalization of abortion in the United States (click here) led to well-known changes in reproductive behavior, but its effect on adoptions has not been investigated.

METHODS: Variation across states in the timing and extent of abortion legalization is used to identify the effects of changes in the legal status of abortion on adoption rates from 1961 to 1975. These effects are estimated in regression analyses that control for states' economic, demographic and political characteristics, as well as for health care availability within states.

RESULTS: The rate of adoptions of children born to white women declined by 34-37% in states that repealed restrictive abortion laws before....

Thousands and thousands of dollars changes hands with adoption. With Foster Care Adoption option, the adoptee continues to receive the monthly stipends of the child(ren) along with their Medicaid and other special income for birthdays and Christmas, etc. The federal budget for these Foster Care Adoptions became more costly to the country today.

...Movies may portray (click here) the typical adoption as a childless couple saving an unwanted baby from a crowded orphanage. But the reality is that, at any given time, an estimated 1 million U.S. families are looking to adopt—many of them seeking infants. That figure dramatically outpaces the number of available babies in the country. Some hopeful parents turn to international adoption, though in recent years other countries have curtailed the number of children they send abroad. There’s also the option to adopt from the U.S. foster-care system, but it’s an often slow-moving endeavor with a limited number of available infants. For those with means, there’s private domestic adoption....

Parents that improvec their quality of life and want to keep the child(ren) are intimidated by the Foster Care Conselers, especially in the Red States. The enormity of the adoption and Foster Care system is unbelievable even today, but, after today it will pull more and more of monies from the federal budget. 

As of today, women's status dropped to 2nd class citizen to be treated as chattle with considerable profit margins for the adoption industry.

Abortion and mental health (click here)

Women who are denied an abortion are more likely to initially experience higher levels of anxiety, lower life satisfaction, and lower self-esteem compared with women who received an abortion.

Unwanted pregnancy has been associated with deficits to the subsequent child’s cognitive, emotional, and social processes.

The number of unsafe abortions is likely to increase when policies limit access to reproductive health care.

There is a strong relationship between unwanted pregnancy and interpersonal violence.
Laws restricting access to safe, legal abortion are harmful to low-income women, women of color, and sexual and gender minorities, as well as those who live in rural or medically underserved areas.

A woman’s ability to control when and if she has a child is frequently linked to her socioeconomic standing and earning power.

The grief of natural mothers giving up their child(ren) are the same as death of their child.

SISTER IS A NUN.

Sister Mary Borromeo, R.S.M., B.A., Dip.Soc.Wk. (1968)

 “Adoption: From the Point of View of the Natural Parents” (click here)

Borromeo based this article on many years of work with unmarried mothers. Its purpose was to draw attention to the grief reaction which the natural mother experiences after the adoption of her child which both she and her family are ill prepared for.

She compares the separation of adoption to the separation of a child through death. The loss is as irrevocable in terms of relationship.

Borromeo notes that the surrendering mother knows that acceptance back into her family circle is dependent on her ability to “put it all behind her,” and so she is under double pressure to do this and suppress her grief. In cases where this is done it is not unusual to find a severe breakdown in self control occurring somewhere around the child’s first birthday.

Experiencing unwanted pregnancies appears to be strongly associated with poor mental health effects for women later in life....

Under Ronald Reagan due to Right Winged Extremists a study  was ordered of Dr. Koop. After 250 cases Dr. Koop stated there is dearly little information to draw any conclusion about mental health of women and abortion.

THERE IT IS. 

Women and childen aren't important enough to completely understand a woman's life and her decision based in socio-economic reasons to have an abortion. There is NOT a sincere study to understand the impacts of adoption on children into their adulthood. 

NO ONE CARES EXCEPT FOR THEIR POLITICAL DONATIONS.

Koop's exercise covered some 250 published research articles, (click here) most of them case studies, says study director George Walters. The results have been closely guarded, although Koop is expected to comply with an official request for them made by Representative Ted Weiss (D-NY), chairman of the subcommittee on human resources and intergovernmental relations of the Government Operations Committee.

Koop, in a 9 January letter to President Reagan, implied that his decision would come as a shock to those for whom it was a "foregone conclusion" that the negative health effects of abortion on women were...

Ending legal and safe abortion for women is a crime against the gender and their children.

Each adoption process (click here) shares the same ultimate purpose: to unite children who need families with those that want children. Yet, despite this common goal, the price tag of adoption in the United States varies widely.

The cost depends on what path you choose: If adopting through the public foster care system, your total out-of-pocket expenses can be next to nothing. If you hope to adopt a newborn, however, the cost can reach $45,000 or sometimes higher if you’re adopting from outside the country....

Welfare

There will be more teen pregnancies that will seek welfare rights. The political activism today with the Supreme Court will cause very poor outcomes for women and girls. Count on spending more on programs that support the poor while the are cast out into homelessness.

Thomas has returned women to the status of chattel. When is he going to remove the woman’s vote?

The anti-abortion movement has not been a peaceful movement.

I fully expect those that killed will look for pardons.

The Supreme Court majority are anarchists.

Gallup Poll (click here)

Abortion for women are supported by all American men except 14 percent and women 13 percent.

Women Pro Choice 61 percent

Women Anti-Abortion 33 percent

Politically Men divide nearly half about abortion despite their personal views.

Forced pregnancy (click here) has serious consequences, including:

▪️ Enduring serious health risks from carrying to term and giving birth ▪️ Making it harder to escape poverty ▪️ Derailing education, career and life plans ▪️ Making it more difficult to leave an abusive partner

There is no conscience in a decision that denies women their own health. It is time to return a Democratic super majority to the USA Senate and ensure the US House maintains it's Democratic majority.

It is hideous to realize politics put women into the danger zone. There is no conscience in the majority Supreme Court. They are anti-federalist as is The Federalist Society.

The Robert's Court is causing harm to the American people. Someone needs to invade Cloud City.

Abortion is illegal in Louisiana today (click here) after the U.S. Supreme Court has overturned its historic Roe v. Wade decision that guaranteed women the right to terminate their pregnancies for the past 50 years....

The votes for these Supreme Justices are definitely divided by political party, with the exception of Robert's confirmation as Chief Justice. There is no polar opposites when it comes to women's health issues. These Supreme Court jutices were confirmed by Republicans. Their decisions are political and not based in any health standard or science or social antropological standard.
