I spoke to a South Carolina woman today who is miscarrying - her fetus has no heartbeat - but the state's ban is preventing doctors from taking action.

She has to walk around with a dead fetus for another week so she can get a FOURTH ultrasound.

This is what bans do.

It’s been a disturbing amount of time since the Alabama student was rounded up and still no information on his whereabouts or reasons for his detention. This is a crime being committed by the state.

BREAKING -- Trump's illegal targeting of law firms continues, attacking WilmerHale for hiring Robert Mueller.

Here's the thing. EVERY SINGLE ONE of these attacks is an "unofficial act" outside the scope of the presidency.

So Trump can face civil suits -- and criminal cases.

The targeting of agriculture, olive trees, and land stewardship by the Israeli military serves to carry out the core goal of Zionism, severing the Palestinian connection to their homeland. We stand against Zionism and the Israeli government’s manipulation of our traditions to facilitate land theft.

Dear Republican members of Congress from NY and NJ:

Do you support Trump and Musk's 20% cut to vital healthcare for 9/11 survivors, firefighters, police officers, first responders, and rescue workers?

Please explain. Right now.

Sincerely,

This database would give Musk detailed technical specifications of every system, detailed pricing and delivery schedules, and information on any confidential government investigations into every other U.S. defense firms. Conflict of interest does not get bigger than this.

I think what happened is:

1. Guy resigned due to public shame / ignominy

2. Musk / Vance / Trump got him back, because they don't want to set precedent that exposure of Nazism is a reason to resign

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM.

We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building.

Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!

Did Trump just inadvertently admit that Israel has killed over 500,000 people in Gaza?

Why doesn't his wife just volunteer at the VA? Win-win! Oh wait, you need to work for a living? And you think Trump would care about you given that? welcome to reality.
And you were expecting…? 🤷🏽
Best of luck in your senior year.

We were warning of genocide the day Israel went in to Gaza

We were called alarmists, exaggerators

All we've wanted was for the US to use its leverage to make it stop

And now respectable orgs are using the word, and a bunch of folks will pretend like they haven't been obfuscating for a year
