By characterizing abortion as health care, international orgs have pushed back against abortion exceptionalism. The World Health Organization recognizes that “[a]bortion is a simple health care intervention.” Numerous countries have adopted laws and policies to align with WHO recommendations.

Fox Business credulously reports that Saudi Arabia is pushing its investment into the US "to $1 trillion." The entire size of the Saudi economy is $1 trillion. How stupid are these people and/or how stupid do they think their viewers are?

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.
That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.
It looks a lot more like preparation for war.
Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.
They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

Angus: Canada is reconsidering that relationship with China. Why? Because we can no longer trust the US.
And we know that we have 150, maybe more, Canadians in custody at ICE detention centers. We had two Canadians under Chinese custody and it caused a huge outcry. We now have over 150 in the US.

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.
It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.
It corrupts our political system every day.
