The Trump administration just rescinded federal guidance that had protected patients' right to an emergency abortion throughout the country. This move formally halts EMTALA enforcement against hospitals that refuse to terminate when a patient's health requires it. www.cms.gov/newsroom/pre...

He needed air. The price was $539.
When OptumRx dropped coverage of his $66 inhaler, Cole couldn’t afford the new price.
5 days later, he died from a severe asthma attack—with no inhaler.
He paid with his life.

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride.
So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels.
They opened the drawbridge to block them.
So they marched to a different bridge.

This absolutely wrecked me. Bigots poison our world and steal beautiful souls like Jonathan Joss from his husband. The strongest of warnings about reading the statement, it will damage you. But homophobia literally kills people. That's what straight people who don't get it yet need to understand.
The heartbreaking statement from Jonathan Joss’s husband about his death.

My psychiatrist told me today, when I asked her how many others were as treatment-resistant as I for severe depression, that of her 800 patients, there were 3 or 4.
First of all..800?! She said most of it was once-yearly types, but still.Also, being 3-4 out of 800 does not bring hope

Speaking of meetings, Russia has not so far sent us, Türkiye, the United States, or anyone else its so-called "memorandum."
No one even knows what they are going to talk about. Instead, Russia launches new deadly attacks against Ukraine.

NEW: The National Sheriffs’ Association(!) puts out a statement saying the Trump admin’s publication, with no feedback first, of a list of Sheriff departments alleged to be sanctuary jurisdictions “violated the core principles of trust, cooperation, and partnership with fellow law enforcement.”

These people were following the law and went to check in with immigration like they are supposed to.
This woman's immigration case was dismissed, which made her immediately undocumented.
So ICE took her into custody.
The air conditioning was off in the back of the truck.

Deporting a gay man to Russia is beyond horrific, and yet this admin is happy to do it.
And the verbal abuse he describes is abhorrent; and not new. Guards at detention centers, jails, and prisons get away with crap like this all the time. It’s appalling, it’s not new under Trump, just worse now.
