I took note that for every single roll call to adjourn, republiklans voted 100% not to. Only reason there was time off is because the other votes counted. mccsharty was ordering them not to leave.
mccsharty claimed the first order of business was investigating Biden, then hunter, then the J6 commission and then cutting spending to Ukraine. I'm not making this up.

Thought: Is a woman's body her property? Then surely extreme state abortion laws violate
;
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

the 14th amendment. Still, as we know...

Whose rights are the most right? The Dilemma of Autonomy in a Society: On Abortion, Women, and Human Life

Published 23 Jul 2016
Nina Roxburgh

In debates on reproductive rights, the moral status of the embryo and fetus is largely at the centre of analysis. Women’s interests and choices have been only incorporated fully in the discussion since the 1970s. Subsequently, a growing number of Supreme Court decisions and government efforts throughout the world have led to the wider recognition of the right to abortion, or in some cases, the right to privacy which leads to a right to abortion. This trend has seen the increase in identifying abortion as a women’s health issue, rather than a question of the embryo’s or fetus’ right to life. However, [ however in red America ] there is still strong opposition to the legalisation and decriminalisation of abortion from Catholic moral philosophers and other pro-life advocates. The primary conflict between feminist philosophers and pro-life advocates is the weighing of one set of rights over another (if it is accepted that the embryo or fetus have any claim to rights).

Just the thought wanted to be expressed again. I haven't read more of it yet.
