WOKE OVERLOAD: Democrat lawmakers Yassamin Ansari, Adelita Grijalva, and Rashida Tlaib recently held a press conference on how much their periods hurt -- and how it is "economic violence" when employers don't pay women to stay home from work when they are menstruating. It was Tlaib who uttered the most revealing line of the whole debacle: "We're sick and tired of women expected to say 'Suck it up' or perform at the highest level. They are expected to work despite incredibly painful periods." https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2026/06/01/feminism-over-democrats-claim-women-cant-perform-at-the-highest-level-on-their-periods-need-money-to-stay-home/
