Worth noting: a district judge ruled that the ban on trans service members was illegal and unconstitutional, as it was without rational basis and based on pure animus. She then refused to stay the order pending appeal.
SCOTUS lifted the stay, and the purge began.

We need to take women’s pain more seriously and provide options not tell women that the only pain reliever studied and found to be safe in pregnancy is harmful. If you took Tylenol during your pregnancy, you did nothing wrong.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

In case folks were thinking “I’m not on Medicaid, I’ll be fine”, ALL healthcare costs about to go WAY UP
ACA health insurance will cost the average person 75% more next year, research shows
A new analysis shows that health insurance premiums for Obamacare are set to soar next year, as financial help that subsidized the cost expires. Congress is not likely to extend the subsidies.

Treatment of miscarriage (medication or D&C) is one of the first skills we master as interns. To not treat people hemorrhaging with a simple D&C that baby doctors can perform is a policy choice for death
A “Striking” Trend: After Texas Banned Abortion, More Women Nearly Bled to Death During Miscarriage
A new ProPublica data analysis adds to the mounting evidence that abortion bans have made the common experience of first-trimester miscarriage far more dangerous.

I think one of the reasons you hear so much visceral anger coming from Dems about politics these days is bc for years now we’ve been expected to respond with dignity and respect (which we do) when political violence touches the GOP. But when it touches us - we get the Mike Lee’s of the world.
Because of my work and writing, I've talked to countless elected officials and their staffers about political violence over the past several years. Mostly Dem, though not all. The collective trauma for these folks is immeasurable and justified. With no recourse. www.semafor.com/article/06/1...
