A chilling account of what stress from ICE raids does to the pregnant body: high blood pressure, disrupted sleep, chest pains, depression. And when immigrants fear going outside, they skip prenatal appts & go untreated. OBs are worried: "These policies are having very deep effects on our patients.”
For months, I've been talking to providers and researchers across the country to understand how the Trump administration's immigration policies are impacting reproductive health. The story is out today in @rewirenewsgroup.com. I hope you'll give it a read:

Donald Trump attempted a coup.

It still astounds me that the GOP gaslit America into forgetting that.

Pretty remarkable.
BREAKING on MS NOW:

Jack Smith, in his opening statement to House Judiciary, says:

"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.

Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.

And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.

Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.

It's a power grab.

Elon Musk said he’d spend less on elections after a falling out with Trump.

He's now reportedly donating to Republicans again ahead of the 2026 midterms.

Musk pulled the strings early on in Trump 2.0.

It now appears that he wants even more influence within the GOP.

During questioning, FCC Chair Brendan Carr was asked whether the FCC is an independent agency. Sen. Luján specifically cited the FCC website calling it “independent.”

I took a screenshot of the site at 11:54 am

I took another at 12:22 pm and the word “independent” was gone.

In comments to NYT, Susie Wiles was asked about her quote that Elon Musk was using drugs. "That's ridiculous," she said. "I wouldn't have said it."

But Peter Baker notes: Chris "Whipple played a tape for The Times in which she could be heard saying it."
