Menstrual surveillance program? WTF?
> JD Vance is a major menstrual surveillance hawk. When the Biden administration pushed for updated HIPAA regulations to prevent sheriff’s departments and other law enforcement agencies from pulling women’s medical records for their menstrual surveillance programs (which they termed “compassionate laws protecting unborn children and their mothers”), Vance was one of only 28 members of Congress (and only 8 senators) to sign a letter protesting the new regs, which, per the letter, “interfere with valid state laws protecting life.” (You can see the letter here. It’s a doozy.)
>
> Think about those numbers. Out of all the crazies in the House Republican caucus and among the 49 Republican senators, they couldn’t even get 30 people to sign this thing. But the Trump campaign itself, not surprisingly, has done its best to avoid the issue. I mean, how could they not? Even the name is toxic.
J.D. Vance wants to send the Period Police to your house every month? Figures. He’s got some real issues it sure seems like.
But seriously, they seem to be going for another “it’s not us, it’s up to the states to decide here”, and we know how that will turn out.
>It’s totally up to the states. Trump’s “leave it up to the states” approach applies to all these menstrual surveillance and travel restriction regimes as well. It’s a new opening for the Harris campaign to focus attention on an issue that hasn’t yet gotten enough attention — not just abortion rights as a general issue but states and county sheriffs’ effort to restrict women’s travel, access their medical records and current state of menstruation or gestation, and bar access to legal medications.

I think they should set a precedent and their wives should publicly post when they menstruate. What have they got to hide, let them demonstrate how this information shouldn’t be private. Come on Usha, lead by example!

Women need to stop answering questions about their period when asked unless it’s 100% necessary.

This whole menstrual surveillance thing is seriously invasive and downright creepy. It’s insane that instead of focusing on real issues, there are efforts to control women’s choices and privacy like this. States should not be monitoring personal health decisions—it just feels like a step back in time. We need to speak out against this and protect our rights.

I’m still of child-bearing age, but I’ve had an endometrial ablation. Do I need to carry around a card from my OBGYN that says so? What if I’m accused of that being faked? Will I need a state-sanctioned gynecological exam to confirm the charred remains of my uterine lining to their satisfaction and have to carry some sort of proof so they don’t get suspicious of my lack of tampon use?
Do the people on the right see how stupid, dangerous, invasive, and UNAMERICAN this entire thing is?

I swear, this campaign cannot be listening to anyone with an ounce of actual “how to run a campaign” professional knowledge.
>But yesterday in an interview on Newsmax of all places, a host asked Trump spokesman Jason Miller whether Donald Trump supported or wouldn’t aim to prevent states from enforcing their own menstrual surveillance regimes. It was one of those Fox-like interviews in which the host seems to go out of his way to signal what the right answer is. You wouldn’t do this, right?
>“But he wouldn’t support monitoring pregnancies, even if a state decided to do that?” the host asked.
>Miller [responded](https://x.com/mattyglesias/status/1839421121244131617) that “he’s [i.e., Trump’s] made it very clear that he’s not going to go and weigh in and push various states on how they want to go and set up their particular rules and restrictions. That’s going to be up to the states.”
>So he went there. It’s totally up to the states. Trump’s “leave it up to the states” approach applies to all these menstrual surveillance and travel restriction regimes as well.

Imagine raising your daughter in a country where her period is tracked by the government and then she gets shot in school by a gun that isn’t allowed to be tracked by the government. And it’s all because you voted for a reality gameshow host because Russian propaganda agents on your TV told you Haitian drag queens were eating dogs and performing transgender surgery on your kids at school.

But first institute a universal DNA database of all men. That way when a woman gets pregnant then the father can be easily identified.

They can surveil menstruation when they start monitoring ejaculations. Oh too intrusive? Maybe we should start collecting a sperm sample from all men and running it against rape kits. Kick start the DNA database.

There are only 3 groups of people concerned with children’s gentials:

– Children/caretakers (if there’s something medically wrong)
– pedophiles
These people pushing these ideas aren’t medical professionals, nor are they actual children (despite how they may act) so that really only leaves one group…
