Thanks to Democrats like Ruben "why aren't women hot anymore" Gallego, who voted for the Laken Riley bill, this young woman cannot be released on bail while her appeal is pending. She's in Lumpkin, GA.
Awful. Trump admin is deporting a 23-year-old NC woman who came here at the age of 14 as an unaccompanied minor. Her father was murdered and mother died of cancer. All she has are two traffic citations, per this report from Charlotte Observer's Dan Kane:

Historically, the fascists fled to Brazil, not from it. The times they are a-changing.
Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan.
And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.

To sum it up - Russia drafted a murderous wishlist, bamboozled US into claiming it's theirs, Trump endorsed it without reading, pressured the victim on behalf of the aggressor, while the aggressor leaked how exactly Trump was bamboozled to then say they won't even consider any peace plans at all.

The CDC has turned off its vaccine search tool.
The vaccines.gov site now gives an error when you enter a valid zip code.
They also removed text saying “Vaccines can help you stay healthy” and added a banner saying the site is being updated.

fantastic idea to take a medical system that already has a measurable and documented habit of undertreating women’s pain and add “also, it’s ok for doctors to literally respond to complaints about care with ‘fine, then feel free to die’”
Ugh I’m so sorry! A similar thing happened to me when I pushed back on a doctor telling me that my pitting edema was just “fat”.
I asked for more tests and said it wasn’t fat and she said “if you’re unhappy with the care there’s always MAiD”
I complained and was told that’s allowed. Disgusting.
