Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

They already have one. It’s called having the hospital draw blood from the birth mother and the baby immediately after birth, not to mention all of the blood tests ordered by OBGYNs to check for pre-eclampsia and gestational diabetes before the baby is born. Trust me, the feds know I was pregnant in 2012 and 2014. Now here is the real kicker, why is my mom fighting me to prevent having my kids added to Ancestry.com? Oh, because maybe the rest of the family will realize some distant relative raped me in my sleep. I’ve told them this. My husband has admitted it happened to me. The feds keep blood samples from every baby that was born around 1988 and later. Hell, even the feds can help me prove what happened! Who is standing in my way? My mother who wants me to fight for dna in court. Why is that? Because I signed the kids over to her, so that I could join the military years ago. She is literally obstructing justice in a rape case, and one day when she is dead, and the kids are old enough to submit dna themselves, they’ll finally understand what happened.
Anyway, the feds already know who is pregnant and when, unless some woman never visits a doctor, has her baby outside of a hospital, and keeps her children from ever visiting a pediatrician. They draw blood, too! My childhood was filled with blood draws, and my pediatrician kept mentioning how it would also help him with his report. You all are worried about the feds knowing who was pregnant? My mother apparently had medical professionals discussing her pregnancy after my pediatrician’s medical project on dna and blood types. Nice, huh?
