Josh Shapiro — A wolf in sheep’s clothing
Broad and Liberty ^ | 07/31/2024 | Beth Ann Rosica

“Throughout his career, Josh has taken on the status quo, brought people together, and fought to keep Pennsylvanians from getting screwed — and that’s exactly what he’ll do as Governor.”

That statement was part of his campaign in 2022 when he was running for Governor of Pennsylvania. A month before the election, I questioned whether Shapiro would actually fight for Pennsylvanians because if past performance is indicative of future behaviors, it did not seem likely.

Before being elected as Governor, Shapiro served as the Attorney General for the commonwealth. As Attorney General, he supported former Governor Tom Wolf’s Covid-19 mandates and lockdowns. Shapiro never pushed back on the extended school and business closures or mask and vaccine mandates. And then he did a complete 180 and claimed the actions were not necessary.

Whether you like his choice of words or not, Shapiro did not fight to keep Pennsylvanians from being screwed as Attorney General and he certainly has not fought as Governor.

Shapiro sued (and lost) The Little Sister of the Poor to try and take away their religious exemption from the HHS contraceptive mandate.

Shapiro also gave prefered treatment to the prime suspect in the investiagion into the death Of Ellen Greenberg. She was stabbed 20 times but her death was ruled a suicide because the suspect had political ties to Shapiro.

Americans must come to realize that any vote for any Democrat anywhere anytime is a vote to destroy the American nation.

I cannot for life of me understand people who will vote for criminals who locked them down. The vote fraud must be massive.

I remember the 2 kids walking aon the railroad tracks near MENA, ARK. who were each shot in the back of the head & locals called both deaths SUICIDES.

Clinton was Governor then, and MENA was considered the BUSIEST airport for drug smuggling.

Well I dunno. I’ve noticed that there are women that other women just don’t like and I think Harris might fall into that category. Maybe wishful thinking.

Exactly. He also cut a decades-old, bipartisan funding program to help struggling pregnant moms choose life for their unborn babies.

He’s no moderate.

We’d be foolish to discount this probability.

How bad will it have to get before those stupid bitches wake up? Even if they end up being raped en masse by illegals in 5 years...will they wake up then?

I am furious that our future is being destroyed by these stupid bitches. They’re “living their best lives”, ordering from Amazon daily, taking Adderall, posting their narcissistic lives on social media and gaining power in society.

I never thought I’d have to contemplate Stalinist conditions in this country. What a fantastic way to meet retirement. 🙄

Neither did Republicans.

Legitimate criticisms of Shapiro aside, the silence of PA Republicans fighting Covid lockdowns, mask and vaccine mandates - was deafening. In fact Republicans at the federal level and in a majority of state legislatures stepped aside and let the authoritarians take control.

Democrats embraced authoritarian rule. Republicans did little to stop them. That’s how the Uniparty rolls.

“Nearly one in four people in the U.S. with the capacity to become pregnant will have an abortion at some point in their life.”

https://abortiondefensenetwork.org/

“Combined oral contraceptives—Also called “the pill,” combined oral contraceptives contain the hormones estrogen and progestin. It is prescribed by a doctor. A pill is taken at the same time each day. If you are older than 35 years and smoke, have a history of blood clots or breast cancer, your doctor may advise you not to take the pill. Typical use failure rate: 7%.

“Progestin only pill—Unlike the combined pill, the progestin-only pill (sometimes called the mini-pill) only has one hormone, progestin, instead of both estrogen and progestin. It is prescribed by a doctor. It is taken at the same time each day. It may be a good option for women who can’t take estrogen. Typical use failure rate: 7%.

“Implant—The implant is a single, thin rod that is inserted under the skin of a women’s upper arm. The rod contains a progestin that is released into the body over 3 years. Typical use failure rate: 0.1%.

“Levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG IUD)—The LNG IUD is a small T-shaped device like the Copper T IUD. It is placed inside the uterus by a doctor. It releases a small amount of progestin each day to keep you from getting pregnant. The LNG IUD stays in your uterus for up to 3 to 8 years, depending on the device. Typical use failure rate: 0.1-0.4%.”

I suspect most abortions are the end result of not taking birth control pills on time.

Perhaps daily reminder pill boxes are needed that work in conjunction with cell phones.

In Florida grocery stores remained open in 2020. Restaurants reopened after about a month but had few patrons until the vaccines were dispensed.

Walmart now in 2024 offers to bring groceries to your vehicle.

Got your metaphor all wrong. Shapiro is a weasel in sheep’s clothing.

He’s not going to ruin his career to go down the tubes with the cackler.
