JD Vance Wrote Foreword to Project 2025 Architect's New Book...
Heritage Foundation President and Project 2025 architect Kevin Roberts has a new book coming out,
and Donald Trump's running-mate JD Vance wrote a very enthusiastic foreword and review promoting his work,
and even urged people to buy the book on his Twitter page before he was chosen as Trump's running mate.
"I was thrilled to write the foreword for this incredible book, which contains a bold new vision for the future of America." ~JD Vance

There are still some real Republicans, but mostly now it has become the party of Trump and a horde of disgusting boot-lickers; sycophants who seem to be motivated entirely by greedy self-interest. JD Vance is a prime example. Ugh.

“Like many other Democrats, Harris is not content to sanction child abuse in the womb. Even when they are born, she is okay with letting those who survive an abortion die.
To be specific, on February 25, 2020, Sen. Harris voted against the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, a bill that would “prohibit a health care practitioner from failing to exercise the proper degree of care in the case of a child who survives an abortion or attempted abortion.” That’s called infanticide.
Harris’ record on abortion and infanticide is at odds with her opposition to the death penalty. When it comes to convicted serial rapists and mass shooters, she wants to spare their lives. In 2019, she was explicitly asked if she opposed the death penalty for acts of treason. She said she did.”

Harris voted against the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, a bill that would “prohibit a health care practitioner from failing to exercise the proper degree of care in the case of a child who survives an abortion or attempted abortion.” That’s called infanticide.But you don't know that she supports infanticide. Because you don't know
why she voted against it. That bill - like most bills, and almost all
messaging bills - contains
lots of things that people who support abortion rights would vote against in almost every circumstance.
As an example - I know from past conversations that you are against abortion. If I introduced a bill into Congress that included a provision that required every state to allow abortions under the same terms as
Roe v. Wade,
and included a provision that made it a federal crime to murder puppies, you'd vote against that bill. Does that mean you support murdering puppies? Of course not - you voted against the bill for a different reason.
For this bill, the problem is writing into the statute a definition of "abortion" that describes it as "intentionally kill[ing] the unborn child of a woman known to be pregnant." Any person who supports abortion rights, but opposes infanticide, would vote against the bill for that reason alone.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senat...Which is why nearly every Democrat always votes against this bill in every Congress it comes up (it failed again this Congress). Not because every Democrat supports infanticide - which you must know is false. Because the bill would jeopardize
all access to abortion by defining it this way.

You mean like you do, regurgitating the proven lie about "migrant crime"? (for example)
You may not be a registered Republican, but you definitely are part of their base. I'm not saying that is a bad thing, necessarily. It's just a fact.
Dems are keen on facts. It's still like herding cats to get Dems to agree on a lot of things. The Reps have the reputation (deserved) of marching in lock-step. They have since Reagan.

That premise only works for democrats.

Imagine you were a Senator. That same bill comes to the floor, but it's got an extra provision in it. It has a provision that bars any state from prohibiting abortion in the first trimester. It makes it a federal crime to commit infanticide and it would undo nearly every first-trimester abortion restriction in the Red states.
Would you vote for that bill?
No. of Recommendations: 3
Not even close to the same thing.
The border bill was a bipartisan bill. There was stuff that each party didn't like. But it's called "compromise". It was killed with one sentence uttered by the convict, and no other reason. Well, Johnson was a coward whom -after the convict spoke- said he wouldn't bring it to the floor. If the convict hadn't opened his mouth, it may have gotten to the floor. We'll never know whether it would have passed or not. It wasn't a slam-dunk.
The Reps and Dems both do "messaging bills" that have no chance to pass because they have nothing the other party wants, and lots the other party hates. The bill you referred to about abortion evidently was one of those bills. It was not a bipartisan compromise.

Why so anti-constitution?
Also why does your culture cause so many to take said guns - and kill with them?
For the record I'm all for banning the deadly weapons and ammo.'
But - the Extremists on the Left refuse to address culture partially because - well, they have always wanted "population control" in certain ethnicities. See the origins of Planned Parenthood for starters.

You never answered my question, LM.
If you were a Senator, and the "Born Alive Abortion Survivors Act" was presented for a floor vote in its latest iteration but with a provision that legalized abortion in the first trimester in all the red states, would you vote for it?

I have said a number of times at the PA if the mother’s life or health was in jeopardy, or rape or incest was the cause of a pregnancy, I was not opposed to an abortion. Whatever other reason is there to abort a viable child in the womb? The stigma is gone for unwed mothers, so many chose to give birth and keep their child. One reason why in this day and age there actually a shortage of babies for adoption in America, at least.
“My body my choice” Well, I won’t go into that. That argument could go on for days.
I skip subjects I’m not interested in, skip certain posters and sometimes I don’t follow a thread I took part in because of time and lost track of etc. So apologies I missed your question.

Well, no, because that wasn't really the question. I wasn't trying to solicit your views on abortion - as you point out, we've covered that a lot.
I was just trying to talk about how you would respond to a proposed bill that contained something you approve of (the current version of the Born Alive Abortion Survivor Protection Act) and something you thought was awful (a provision legalizing abortion in all the red states). That happens all the time in Congress. Most bills don't just do one thing. So you get a bill that would do both X and Y, and you support X but vehemently oppose Y. What do you do?
I was asking whether you would vote for that bill or not. If it had the BAASPA provisions (which you support) and also had a provision that barred red states from restricting abortion, could you vote for it?

It would appear that Banksy is unable to resist the impulse to mislead readers.
The subject of his OP in this thread is: Vance Wrote Project 2025 Forward
So one might think the post will be about, oh I don't know, JD Vance writing the forward to the Project 2025 Book?
Well that is just a lie. JD Vance didn't write the forward or any part of the Project 2025 Book!
So why would Banksy post this thread with this subject line? One can only guess that he is more concerned with trashing JD Vance than he is with telling the truth about anything.

If the bill was for the greater good and the cons were of no consequence probably yes.
OTOH the bills Harris voted yes for were akin to murder imo and anything she might not like in the Bill is moot in comparison.

"Greater good" is squishy, so you dodged the question. I quote the original question for you again:
Imagine you were a Senator. That same bill comes to the floor, but it's got an extra provision in it. It has a provision that bars any state from prohibiting abortion in the first trimester. It makes it a federal crime to commit infanticide and it would undo nearly every first-trimester abortion restriction in the Red states.
As a senator, you can either vote 'yea' or 'nay'. Is it the "greater good" to allow a prohibition on bans of first-trimester abortions if you can get the "Born Alive" act in the deal? I'm curious about your answer, also. And it does illustrate the compromises elected officials have to make to get some of what they want.
