Jessica Valenti - "Abortion: Our Bodies, Their Lies, and the Truths We Use to Win" | The Daily Show

Using language to trick your constituents is annoyingly prevalent in our nation. Here’s another example: calling anti-union laws “right to work” laws in certain states. Sounds promising, doesn’t it. Labor is a right, no? But the part they try to leave out is “You don’t want those pesky unions involved, do you? Always fighting for your rights, better working conditions, better pay, protection from harm, all that stuff, right? RIGHT?”

There's SO many things to dispise about the GOP

As a male I have one job when it comes to the healthcare of women in my life. Be there to support the decision they make, end of story. If you're a guy with strong feelings on the matter & didn't let your partner know in advance, you missed your chance for input on the decision.

It’s crazy that I thought I’d never see the day where we would return to a pre- Roe v Wade world…it’s so bizarre to me. How many women who actually have rights need to be denied care, suffer pain and die before the madness ends. 😢

Honestly, I never thought ROE could/would be ended

I've been saying for years that the bullies have grown up and gotten jobs.

Glad to see her interviewed on here. She’s been doing this work for decades & this decoding is so important when we speak with our loved ones.

Thinking of my now 21 yo daughter or her friends in school, middle school and high school age, not having a safe and legal alternative to bringing a fetus to term. It’s appalling.

Love her and her advocacy for women’s rights

🎉🎉🎉🎉thank you Daily Show and Jessica Valenti 🎉🎉🎉🎉 I worked in abortion care for a total of 8 years and we NEED someone like Jessica telling the truth about these bans and "exceptions" that do nothing to help women stay alive and healthy.
