Louisiana Senator, Bill Cassidy, wants to 'correct' the statistics of the rate of maternal mortality in Louisiana to not include black women. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report. Read more here: Maternal death rate isn't as bad if you don't count Black women, GOP senator says - https://www.businessinsider.com/gop-senator-la-outlier-maternal-death-rate-skewed-black-women-2022-5?utm_source=pocket_mylist "Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy said that the state's poor maternal mortality rate is only an "outlier" because of the high proportion of Black women in the state, according to Politico. Cassidy's comment was featured in Politico's in-depth exploration of Louisiana's maternal death rates, which are among the worst in the country. The state ranks 47 out of 48 states assessed for maternal deaths, state officials said. Cassidy told the outlet that this is partly because "about a third of our population is African American; African Americans have a higher incidence of maternal mortality."

As the final Supreme Court decision on Roe V. Wade being overturned is in discussion the House held a hearing on abortion access and questioned a medical professional on dramatic hypothetical situations. John Iadarola and Jessica Burbank break it down on The Damage Report. Read more here: House holds hearing on abortion access as nation awaits final Supreme Court decision - https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/house-holds-hearing-abortion-access-nation-awaits-final/story?id=84805459 "The House Judiciary Committee held a hearing Wednesday on abortion access as the nation awaits a final decision from the Supreme Court in a case that result in the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., kicked off the hearing with a warning that if the landmark 1973 decision legalizing abortion is in fact overturned -- as was indicated in a leaked Supreme Court draft opinion -- the impact will be "devastating." "Making decisions about when and how to start a family is essential to women's lives," Nadler said. "The right to decide whether to carry or terminate a pregnancy is central to life, liberty and equality. It is the very essence of what it means to have bodily autonomy, which is a prerequisite for freedom."" ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurksMay 19

That is restoring the institutions of this country. Because that's what they said they were going to do. But, you're going to see that, because I think it's in a very emotional issue, abortion. And a lot of people don't understand it. There are women who are past their prime, who can't even get pregnant, but you will see them out there, screaming at the top of their lungs, almost resorting to violence because that's just -- it's a religious tenet to these people and we have to understand that. I would stay away from these people all summer. If you hear about a protest in your city, I wouldn't engage. I'd go to the beach. Even on a social level, if it's not your friend or your family, don't involve yourself with that very, you know, turbulent conversation about it. It's really not worth it." ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurksMay 19

Rep. Marjorie Greene goes off on an unhinged rant about satan's plan and makes a weird claim that abortion won't help relationship problems.

Case in point: the GOP firebrand recently weighed in on the ongoing abortion debate by making the truly wild claim that women are having the procedure in order to make men love them. No, seriously. Greene walked down to the Supreme Court this week to chat with pro-birth protestors as judges inside began voting on whether to overturn Roe v. Wade. The decision to undo the law will likely mean millions of women won’t have access to a healthcare procedure — and it’s opened the doors for even more restrictions possibly being placed on everything from contraceptives like IUDs to the morning-after pill. Of course, for Greene, the media hype surrounding this decision is the perfect excuse to try out her new brand of virtue signaling in a speech to protestors." ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurksMay 19

Rep. Lauren Boebert is getting hit with an old video of hers slamming maternity and paternity leave, which completely contradicts her newest stance on paid maternity leave.

Read more here: An Old Lauren Boebert Interview About Maternity Leave Is Coming Back To Bite Her Rootin’ Tootin’ Butt - https://uproxx.com/viral/lauren-boebert-maternity-leave-abortion-tweet/ "Lauren Boebert’s quickly becoming an expert in telling people what to do and doing something completely different on her own. Not only has she judged people who are juggling student loans with rent and everything else, but she’s also used her own campaign funds to pay personal expenses like rent. She’s also been accused (by former employees) of missing their paychecks while she allegedly splurged on luxury items (including breast implants). So, it’s not much of a surprise that she’ acting hypocritical when it comes to women’s health, including abortion and maternity leave. This week, Boebert (who’s been thrilled about the impending overturning of Roe v. Wade) is on a tear about those companies who have committed to helping cover costs for employees who choose to terminate pregnancies but will have to travel out-of-state to do so. Boebert believes that they’re “doing so just to avoid paying for maternity leave.” She added, “Cheaper to kill the baby… true evil personified.”" ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurksMay 18
