In the weeks before Joe Biden named Sen. Kamala Harris his running mate, women’s groups were readying a campaign of their own: shutting down sexist coverage and disinformation about a vice presidential nominee they say is headed for months of false smears and “brutal” attacks from internet haters.

The groups put the media on notice in recent days that they will call out bias — one campaign is dubbed “We Have Her Back” — and established a “war room” to refute sexist or false attacks as they happen.

They didn’t have to wait long. Within minutes of the presumptive Democratic nominee’s announcement Tuesday, false information was circulating on social media, claiming that Harris had called Biden a “racist” and that she is not eligible to be president.

The women’s groups say their efforts are informed by the sexism Hillary Clinton faced from Donald Trump, some of his supporters and the media during the 2016 campaign.

“This time we understand the patterns, and this time we have the organizational infrastructure to push back,” said Shaunna Thomas, executive director of the women’s advocacy group UltraViolet, which released a 32-page guide for media along with a coalition of groups including Color of Change PAC, Planned Parenthood Votes and Women’s March.

“I know a great many proverbs 31 women. Of course they tend to be around their home children and church apparently not where you hang out. Please find help for your mommy issues.”

You judge me inaccurately and make erroneous assumptions (likely assuming I believe all women are a certain way or that I have ‘mommy issues; I do not). Maybe you believe your gut hunches are always 100% accurate, as so many women do.

I DO believe that a great many women, when left to their own emotion-driven devices, go down poor pathways that hurt society. Hence, the numerous Biblical instructions about women. (I’ll wager that you think those are illegitimate passages from misogynistic old men of the unenlightened past, rather than part of a valid whole.)

Women's Groups? Gimme a break.

These women are the paid white liberal 'elite' girls of George Soros.

These women don't represent democrat women - they represent the same people who buy the pallets of bricks and bats for 'black lives matter' and tiki torches for 'the KKK' of Charlottesville

There is no need to attack her; simply reporting accurately on her is sufficient to warn the populace about her predilections. Oh...wait; that would be an attack, because TRUTH is the new HATE SPEECH.
