The campaign of brutality against the working poor that began under the so called compassionate conservative movement has only continued to escalate with the current bastards in charge. Here’s another example.

Our analysis, which shows that more women nearly bled to death during miscarriage after Texas banned abortion, adds to a growing body of reporting revealing that maternal outcomes have gotten worse under bans.
Miscarriage Is Increasingly Dangerous for Women in Texas, Our Analysis Shows. Here’s How We Did It.
Using seven years of hospital discharge data, we found that the number of blood transfusions during emergency room visits for first-trimester miscarriage shot up by 54% since Texas banned abortion.

House Republicans have passed the budget bill that extends the Trump tax cuts, guts Medicaid and other services, and dramatically expands spending on immigration enforcement and the military. Chris Lehmann of @thenation.com calls it "a mugging conducted by the 1% against the rest of us."

Throwback Thursday…

At President Biden’s final State of the Union address, he backed the entire Republican Party into a corner, forcing them to deny that they were planning to slash Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid—just to hand billionaires a trillion-dollar tax cut. He knew!

My take on the cruel and all too usual Republican budget: Ignores reality, endangers everyone, and makes safety-net remedies as complicated as possible—knowing and perhaps even intending that the result will be stunted and wrecked lives. @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/republican...
The Party of ‘Denihilism’
Republicans are rejecting reality while embracing destruction—just look at the House budget megabill.

7 out of the 9 Supreme Court justices believe in rule of law and due process and constraining executive power at least a bit, which is better than 4 out of 9 but is still not great
This is an unusual order for several reasons, suggesting the majority thought it necessary. This was issued:
• after midnight
• before the government even responded (perhaps most irregular)
• while a Fifth Circuit request remains pending &
• before a dissenting justice could finish their statement.

Instead of focusing on lowering prices "on Day One," Trump's asinine tariff policy, erratic behavior, and mass firings of public servants have crushed families and produced uncertainty in the markets, as he destroys at lightning speed the economy Biden rebuilt.
