I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

NEW: More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban.
Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.”

CALL YOUR SENATORS AND HOUSE REPS. GET OTHER PEOPLE TO CALL AS WELL. THEN DO IT AGAIN.
Tomorrow is the day is the day in the Senate, and the House could be just a few days later. Begging you to get everyone you know to call their senators and House reps.
I promise you that someone you know will be harmed. There has never in US history been a law that has cut low-income programs more.

All I want to hear out of Democrats is that we had a deal and no bomb. Then Trump tore it up and he is now putting American lives in danger.
That’s it.

Just got a nice email from a former student. It made my day. If a professor taught a class that you enjoyed & still remember, send them a message to let them know. It will give them a boost, trust me.

If you are too young to remember the Iraq War, you'll hear "no one protested" and "no one knew they were lying." Millions of people knew they were lying and protested. The press not only did not want a record of mass dissent; they did not want a record of mass knowledge of lies.
