In 1864, Arizona illegally split off from New Mexico, which was a real territory that went from Texas to California at the time. One could probably fight this in SCOTUS on the basis that they were an illegal territory when it was passed.
When the NYT tries to write an article like this it’s either “man, everybody sure loves Trump!” or it’s “we can’t tell, it’s super complicated” with nothing in between. If you read enough of these articles, you’d hardly believe that Joe won with eighty million votes in 2020.
AZ born and raised. I left because obvs it sucks a bit. But I know AZ and I believe abortion will win there.
Like, I had a soft spot for Kari Lake from my childhood memories of morning news while getting ready for school. I still love her voice! To the point I was afraid her charisma and familiarity would get her elected with ease. But Arizonans are tough. While we all know a lot of evangelical assholes, I trust Arizonans to choose independence (from government) first. Not all, but enough. I think we'll pull through for the senate too. AZ bitches got backbone. Don't tell us what to do.
I noticed that comments were not allowed on this particular article, which was too bad because the subscribers have been almost as mean about these kind of stories as people on this site. And I'm so happy my spouse cancelled the subscription a few months ago while sending a note that was a resounding fuck you after Maureen Dowd's latest idiocy.
I am really beginning to think that the New York Times is run by idiots. Their desperate attempts to both sides the abortion issue is exhibit one.
I still like Wordle, and some of their not batshit crazy columnists. But I am pleased that the paper itself hasn't got one thin dime of mine in years. (Full disclosure, I get free day old copies at work.)
I fucking DESPISE this kind of 'playing dumb' the NYT is doing...It is LITERALLY gaslighting and running cover for republican trash...What a WONDERFUL opportunity this would have been for the NYT to write up an overview of the issue and how its been playing out over the last year...To 'fail to mention' the ballot initiatives and referendums in deep red states like KS, OH, AL that shored up abortion rights and access is LITERAL journalistic malpractice...This is NOT something that ANYONE in this line of work could have missed... A kind of "lie of omission"...The NYT is engaging in DEEPLY immoral journalistic practices...
"They explain that they met some people who said they’re going to vote for Donald Trump anyway, even if they don’t like the reversal of abortion rights,"
You can also find people who will vote for Donald Trump, even though he launched a violent coup to try to stay in office after losing the election, is happy to sell out the United States to China, Saudi Arabia and Russia (we be doo . . . . ahhhhh https://youtu.be/93RfwgrR6Zk?si=gdHDMixjnTsMVMlz&t=150 ), and belittles our brave service members and gold star families while mocking the handicapped.
Ima guess that the NYT has some affirmative action hires for reporting that were hired for their inablilty to see their fingers in front of their faces at high noon.
But that's OK, keep up the "suspense" about how this is going to wash out - sort of like the "red wave" except much drier in AZ.
From another source the current state of the Union: Florida - forfeited its status as member of the United States as well as a participant in Civilization; Texas - has declared a permanent state of emergency pending declaration of war with Mexico; Arizona - declared a solar hazardous environment unfit for humans, current residents will not recover from micro-waved brains. To keep an even 50 statehood is granted to D.C., Guam and Puerto Rico.

"Those damned Yankees won't go to war to keep us from seceding. They don't have the stomach for a fight. The war will be over in two weeks."

Thank you, Evan, for occasionally reminding me why I cancelled my NYT subscription and started giving my moneys to yr Wonket

It wouldn’t be the NYT without a Cletus Safari.
I'm sick and tired of the "women are just broodmares" movement.

“I’m pretty pro-life, but I think it should be the woman’s choice,”
Pssst… who’s gonna tell darling Nikki that means she’s actually PRO-CHOICE?
both sides are covered, their work is DUN
