I'm going to work here in a minute, and I've started just not looking at socials during the workday because it just doesn't help. But before I go, I need you to know what's going to happen in DC today, in all likelihood.
The Senate's going to vote on a continuing resolution to fund the US govt.

Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts.
Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵

This is not pro-life. It’s pro-death when Dr’s can’t perform emergency D&C for a miscarriage when a woman is hemorrhaging out of fear. This is infuriating.
NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all.
Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

Today I’m meeting with a group of researchers and activists to discuss how Democrats win back young men. What questions would you be most interested in asking?

This is the proper way to discuss what Gaetz did.
There seems to be a lot of misinformation going around so please allow me to clarify.
Matt Gaetz did not have sex with a 17 year old girl.
Matt Gaetz raped a trafficked 17 year old girl and then venmoed the guy who trafficked the girl; aka her pimp.

If the Matt Gaetz report exonerated him, he would not have resigned from Congress to avoid it.
