Again, Planned Parenthood does not just offer abortions!

They also offer birth control to many women who other wise many not be able to get it or afford it, and if you take away abortions and then also birth control what will protect young women who are sexually abused and raped. Young women would no longer be able to protect themselves sexually. Planned Parenthood also offers cancer and STD screenings to everyone not just women. Which can be life saving and very important for those who can otherwise not afford these services. Which is why it is vital to keep Planned Parenthood's open and running and affordable to all even if they aren't giving services of abortion.

Planned Parenthood indeed offers a broad range of services. However, it's crucial to note that there are over 13,000 Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) in the U.S. that provide similar, if not more comprehensive, services than the roughly 600 Planned Parenthood locations. These FQHCs provide care regardless of the patient's ability to pay, making them accessible for low income individuals.

FQHCs must provide prenatal, baby delivery, and postnatal services, which are not required at Planned Parenthood centers. They also offer more comprehensive primary care compared to Planned Parenthood.

If the government funding shifted from Planned Parenthood to FQHCs, could this be a viable solution to ensure women still receive the necessary health services they need without crossing the controversial line of abortion?

I believe 100% it is your choice and you have a right. It is your body. But if you were raped or SA'd in any way there no one will look down apon you if you decided to get an abortion

Trump hits ‘nasty’ Michelle Obama at Atlanta rally

Former President Trump attacked former first lady Michelle Obama during his rally in Atlanta on Monday, calling her “nasty” after Obama lobbed attacks at the former president while stumping for Vice President Harris.“You know who’s nasty to me? Michelle Obama,” Trump told supporters in Atlanta.“I always tried to be so nice and respectful. Oh, she opened up a little bit of — a little bit of a box. She opened up a little bit of something. Oh, she was nasty. Shouldn’t be that way. That was a big mistake that she made,” he added.His remarks come after Obama criticized Trump during a Michigan rally on Saturday, at one point mentioning “Donald Trump’s gross incompetence.”“I hope that you’ll forgive me if I’m a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behavior, his obvious mental decline, his history as a convicted felon, a known slum lord, a predator found liable for sexual abuse, all of this while we pick apart Kamala’s answers from interviews that he doesn’t even have the courage to do, y’all,” she said in Kalamazoo, Mich.The heated rhetoric underscores the increasingly personal tone the presidential election has taken between the two campaigns roughly one week out from the election.An aggregate of national surveys compiled by The Hill/Decision Desk HQ shows Harris slightly ahead at close to 49 percent support while Trump is at 48 percent.
