A federal judge in Washington on Wednesday blocked the Trump administration’s recent changes to the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program, which hit groups around the country that teach classes on healthy relationships, abstinence and contraception.

The Trump administration, he wrote “is perfectly entitled to formulate its own views about how to stem teen pregnancy — or even whether it is worth preventing at all — and to pursue policy initiatives consistent with its viewpoint. But it is not at liberty, under the Administrative Procedure Act (“APA”), to impose conditions on grant recipients that Congress did not intend or that are unreasonable or unexplained.”

          And how they die.

          They want meat for the meat grinder.

          They don’t care which meat grinder it is.

          (Though, with all the bullshit on child labor roll backs…. They can get kids in the one meat grinder and sell the other as “escape”)

      But they have to be white and preferably male.

      Every industrialized country is freaking out about birthrates–some going on 20 years–and the US under Trump has thrown away the single largest economic advantage it had.

        But they have to be white and preferably male.

        They still need the females and brown babies to rape and send to their human trafficking rings.

      Do you really actually believe that republicans really actually have a sinister plan to breed more slaves ?

      It just seems kind of absurd to me. I’m sure there’s a few nutters that do want to breed slaves but not as a generally held premise.

      I also think there are already sufficient slaves for whatever nefarious plan one might have.

      In a bleak dystopian future where you have some kind of over-class that lives in fancy domes and the rest of us toil away in the wasteland, how many slaves or under-class do you need? Fewer than currently exist I imagine.

        Not slaves… white babies. just white babies. This whole abstinence thing runs completely cross current to the natalist ideology within the white christian nationalist movement.
