A 15-year decline in Texas teen birth rates slid to a stop—and converted into a modest increase in 2022, the year after the state Legislature implemented what was the nation’s strongest ban on abortion, according to new report from the University of Houston’s Institute for Research on Women, Gender & Sexuality.
Nah, they want them to all be black, but white is acceptable.
More blacks mean more people they can throw in jails to use as slave labor for their corporate overlords.

The goal is to work these prisoners to death until there’s nobody left to arrest.

Prison populations have been falling since COVID but spending (and profits) have only increased.
If every prisoner in Texas vanished tomorrow, I guarantee the private contractors and facilities would still post record profits by year end.
