Just about every Democrat running for election in 2020 who happened to be in Washington, D.C., Tuesday showed up for the cameras at the #StopTheBans pro-abortion rally. As Twitchy reported earlier, Kirsten Gillibrand pledged to repeal the Hyde amendment, seeing it as a separation of church and state issue, and Pete Buttigieg said he didn’t want “the heavy hand of government” interfering with medical decisions — as long as those decisions were to abort a baby.

Democrats are only "pro-choice" on abortion and gender identification.
Everything else, *they* decide what's best for you.

“Maybe you’re better off not having the surgery, but taking the painkiller.”

A total contradiction when it comes to universal healthcare where government makes every decision about your body. https://t.co/ot6GcBX895

So the “heavy-handed government“ is wonderful, except to protect babies. https://t.co/kznPmSCp5Y

But the heavy hand of government is okay for gun grabbing . . . raising taxes . . . eliminating school choice . . . business regulations . . . climate change mandates . . .
