The Trump administration has made good on its promise to ban abortion care for veterans.
The new directive, obtained by Mother Jones, states that it won’t prohibit care to “pregnant women in life-threatening circumstances, including treatment for ectopic pregnancies or miscarriages."

You may have heard that some of the Epstein files redactions have been broken. This is what happens when government lawyers don’t understand basic redaction security.

Today is National Homeless Persons Memorial Day, observed annually on the winter solstice. First commemorated in 1990, the observance honors those who died while experiencing homelessness during the past year and serves as a call to action for policy changes to end homelessness.
