The Week reports:
Shortly before the RNC began, a White House reporter for CBS News drew attention to two of Abby Johnson’s tweets from May in which she expressed support for “bringing back household voting,” which would give each household a single vote — and give husbands “the final say.” (Johnson doubled down on this outlandishly retrograde position on Tuesday evening just a few hours before her speech.)
No wonder, then, that when she stood at the podium at the Mellon Auditorium in Washington D.C., Johnson unleashed an unmodulated attack on her former employer Planned Parenthood, denouncing its “racist roots,” deploring its “barbarity,” and even pausing to evoke “what abortion smells like.” The assault naturally culminated in gushing praise for the anti-abortion efforts of President Trump.
Pro-aborts are SO scared of my speech tonight that will pull back the curtain of the barbaric reality of abortion, they are scrambling to try to find anything to detract people from my message. Well, guess what?? You can dredge up whatever old tweets you want. I’m still speaking.

When asked what happens when spouses disagree, she said:
“in a Godly household, the husband would get the final say.”

Oh Jesu Cristo… these people are trying to kill me.
Now up: an anti-choice activist named Abby Johnson.
Johnson thinks her husband should be able to vote “for her household”.
She also posted a video saying cops would be right to racially profile her adopted biracial son.

Yes, I absolutely do…if a man is the head of the household. I said what I said.
