Alabama is trying to prosecute anyone that helps a woman travel for an abortion for "criminal conspiracy". Texas and Idaho also have laws to punish helping a woman get out of the state for an abortion.

These laws are designed for repressive terror. They show what fascist Christians stand for, and what they deserve.

Russian journalist Elena Kostyuchenko went to Ukraine to cover Putin's invasion for the independent newspaper Novaya Gazeta, but stayed after Putin closed it down. Then she learned that there was an order out to kill her.

She got sick, with an unidentifiable illness, and doctors eventually concluded she had been poisoned by Putinite agents.

In Maricopa county, and many others where fascists have organized, they are bombarding election officials with more public records requests than they can answer, accusing officials of hiding some nonexistent conspiracy (the sort of thing that only fascists actually do), and frightening capable election officials into quitting.

Instead of the rule of law, fascists practice the rule of lie.
