The European Commission must decide by 2 March whether it intends to give legal follow-up to a European Citizens’ Initiative that gathered more than one million signatures in 2025. It would allow EU states to voluntarily fund women's abortion care when they need to travel from another EU state.

Incredible. They destroyed a great newspaper because they hated the people who actually paid for it and read it so much that they'd rather scrap the paper if they couldn't get Tucker Carlson's audience bsky.app/profile/maxt...
Speaking to WaPo employees, editor Matt Murray says cuts are about “positioning ourselves to become more essential to people's lives, and what is becoming a more crowded, competitive and complicated media landscape, and after some years when, candidly, the Post has had struggles to do that."

I am not used to being well ahead of a deadline but... I think I have almost finished my book save inserting images and doing a final edit?

With over three weeks to spare?

New year, new me!

The WaPo cuts are devastating. And to cut the Books section entirely makes the already bleak critical landscape even more bare. This was all preventable but Bezos, who could find the post I perpetuity without noticing it, is hellbent on destroying the Post. And for what?

Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power.

They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

I’d like to report a murder. Trying to fix a legacy media company is hard — we all know the economics — but Jeff Bezos just killed the @washingtonpost.com in the most cowardly & inept way possible. He would never entertain others who wanted to fix it too like me www.nytimes.com/2026/02/04/b...

Alabama has the worst maternal mortality in the United States at 60 deaths per 100K live births. For reference, California has 18 deaths per 100K live births.

But Dr. Oz thinks it’s “cool” that American citizens do not have access to good reproductive healthcare in the wealthiest nation in history.
Dr Oz: "Alabama has no OBGYNs in many of their counties, so they're doing something pretty cool. They're actually having robots do ultrasounds on these pregnant moms."

One lesson from the Epstein–Mandelson affair is that we need to stop routinely rehabilitating political careers after serious scandals.

When politicians knowingly engage in grave ethical wrongdoing, that should permanently end their political careers. Being "talented" should not override that.

i actually prefer it when the mods actively hate the user base and vice versa, that’s how every great message board worked for years and i think we should give it a whirl

@donlemonofficial.bsky.social: I don’t really know what’s next for me. These are serious charges and I take them seriously, but they’re not going to steal my joy or silence me. It’s my mission to report and tell people the truth.

Under my administration, we've stabilized our finances, balanced seven consecutive budgets, delivered 10 credit upgrades, and more.

I'm building off that toward fiscal responsibility and continuing to make progress toward full pension funding.

In a few short months, @DianaforQueens built an incredible coalition and ran a movement campaign that earned nearly 75% of the vote last night.

I'm grateful that she will serve out my term in the Assembly, and hopefully many to come. Astoria is in good hands.
