In her speech before Congress on Thursday, Congresswoman Cori Bush referred to mothers as ‘birthing people’.
Bush was testifying at a House Oversight hearing on health risks faced by Black mothers.
Not surprisingly she drew condemnation from many, including Fox News’ Tucker Carlson who mockingly said that ‘mother has been banned’ because the term was ‘too sexist’.

The Mail Online reports: The representative for Missouri told the harrowing story of how she was ignored by doctors when she told them of the extreme pain she was in, early in her pregnancy with both her children.
She said her concerns were dismissed, and both her children – her son Zion, now 21, and daughter Angel, now 20 – were born extremely premature

‘I sit before you today as a single mom, as a nurse, as an activist, congresswoman, and I am committed to doing the absolute most to protect black mothers, to protect black babies, to protect black birthing people, and to save lives.’
‘Every day, Black birthing people and our babies die because our doctors don’t believe our pain,’ she tweeted later on Thursday.
‘My children almost became a statistic. I almost became a statistic. I testified about my experience today.
‘Hear us. Believe us. Because for so long, nobody has.’
Bush’s terminology was immediately seized on.
Nancy Mace, a South Carolina congresswoman, tweeted: ‘“Birthing people” – you mean women or moms?
‘The left is so woke they’re stripping from women the one thing that only we can do.’
Steve Cortes, a former Trump advisor, questioned whether Mother’s Day will get a new title.
‘”Birthing people.” This upcoming Sunday is no longer Mothers Day, it’s Birthing Peoples’ Day,’ he said.
Carlson ridiculed her on Friday night, saying it was ‘dehumanizing’.
He said she was ‘referring to black birthing people – in other words, mothers.’

Black people kill the most black people. Fact.
Everyday is a pity party for a leftist.
“Yall gone stop killing us” Its like she is going out of her way to sound ignorant.
I am woman, hear me roar…
In Satanism a roar is their anthem For woman to be above Man in the Bible is satanic demonic un natural and against the intended Order That’s why Eve telling Adam what to do caused the Fall .Because Adam didnt tell her off and put her back in her box .Thats why Satanic Katy Perry Roared and kissed a girl, that’s why lost soul dead Helen Reddy roared She didnt triumph, went demented or something and wound up living in a flat back in australia forgotten almost by the world .
I am a woman not a birthing person. All I have to say is wow how some people take things out of contexts. That is what is wrong with people now a days, they take things so literal.
I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an’ pretend
‘Cause I’ve heard it all before
And I’ve been down there on the floor
No one’s ever gonna keep me down again
Oh yes, I am wise
But it’s wisdom born of pain
Yes, I’ve paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman
You can bend but never break me
‘Cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
‘Cause you’ve deepened the conviction in my soul
Oh yes, I am wise
But it’s wisdom born of pain
Yes, I’ve paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman
I am woman, watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my lovin’ arms across the land
But I’m still an embryo
With a long, long way to go
Until I make my brother understand
Oh yes, I am wise
But it’s wisdom born of pain
Yes, I’ve paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can face anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman ah
I am woman (I am woman)
I am invincible
I am strong
I am woman (I am woman)
I am invincible
I am strong
I am woman
This song helped usher in feminism that has contributed greatly to the downfall of the USA. Woman and their emotional approach to politics have helped ruin the USA.
That’s very sexist .Why should they be birthing people ? Everyone has a role on reproduction or birthing of the species not just the carrier and transmitter dispensing organ /utility
Last night actually while waiting for the sand man to arrive I was wondering in what labels to I’d different people with since the democrats have been ordered no doubt from Oxford masters really that they’re were not allowed to call people male or female tags anymore and instead have to ditch English go european russian and have neuter names too ,well instead Very romantic Those frogs and russians All for ” love ” the one your with .Sure Anyway been there done that .Si those with a functioning male member, with operational tastes called be a Thing 1 Those with operational vagina and associated appendages organs and functional mammary glands ,a Thing 2 .Those with functioning penis and non functioning sea salt implants a Thing 3 Those with inverted penis and surgically removed mammary glands a Thing 4. All others that dont fit into any other categories already listed a Thing 5 .That’s not too hard for children to grasp.
Some say …
There are a certain strain of humans that cannot help themselves and must run continuously off at the mouth and decide that the best use for their inability to STFU is to run for public office.
Time to cut the cord..
I don’t speak Ebonics.
you could not accuse her of an excess of intellect
Just imagine a white politician defending white people like this delusional woman is defending blacks.
Deport all the non whites or the USA turns commie 3rd world. Anyone who still believes non whites make good Americans is a leftist through and through.
