In the off chance that one of the authors sees this and addresses (yes, JVL, I saw your wife's thing about diaper donations). I feel my skin crawling when I see Louisiana's law. It's obscene. It's 60% people who already have one child that have abortions in the end, most of them poor. And because of "financial responsibility" that has no caring for the outcomes it induces, they will have no support. McConnell fully supports even rejection of the Child Tax Credit. The rest of the them don't care about the children that will born into poverty - 75% of women that have abortions are low income.

What's the GOP or the Bulwark doing about that? Or even talking about? Yet conservatives don't feel bad. It's actually good for the children they claim, in fact. Well, the reality is here. It's going to be grim.

I do know it's time to stop supporting this site if it doesn't care about the kids or women it's okay with losing rights. Because those kids are going to need more than austerity measures by government. Maybe you guys (mostly guys) didn't think this whole thing through. Maybe start writing articles about that, Bulwark.

I don't expect you to change your stance on abortion, but are you going to change it on financial measures and start endorsing full healthcare and child support? Or is it crickets all the way down because charity?
