Weekend Report: What's happening?
Republican panic over IVF ruling. The zombie impeachment of President Biden continues. Trump says Black people relate to him because of his indictments.
The GOP is fracturing further. After initially staying silent on the Alabama Supreme Court ruling that deemed frozen embryos are “children,” many Republicans have been coming out against the ruling—sharply disagreeing with those who came out in support of it—consumed by panic about the implications in the election. Donald Trump and Republican candidates and leaders put out statements supporting IVF, even though some of them have supported bills that would ban IVF in the past. Will their newfound, hypocritical love of reproductive freedom work?
Republicans have also created a world of hurt for themselves in trying to impeach President Biden, now that their star witness has been arrested for lying and working with Russian intelligence. They’re in a quagmire, unable to get out of doing something they promised, with the dead-on-arrival impeachment still chugging along, with no end game —as more than 30 Republicans reportedly are unwilling to vote for impeachment—and having gotten nothing else accomplished.
And Trump, speaking to a group of Black conservatives, said the reason “the Black people like me” is because of his criminal indictments and his mugshot. Not kidding!
