The massive deployment represents more than 20% of the state’s military forces and roughly half of the Texas Department of Public Safety commissioned officers.

No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss

Also hate to break it to you, Marjorie, but regardless of any potential pardon, Chauvin will remain in jail for his state conviction. He will forever be a convicted murderer in the eyes of the law and the world.

For decades public media has been a free, invaluable source of news, entertainment, and educational programming for Americans.

But now Donald Trump wants to shut it down. The reason? He doesn’t like the content. This is what authoritarian governments do.
NEW: The president's executive order instructs the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and other federal agencies “to cease Federal funding for NPR and PBS” and further requires that they work to root out indirect sources of public financing for the news organizations. to.pbs.org/44UvK1B

I hate not being able to read a news article because it's behind a pay wall. Being informed should not cost money. Especially local news.

Despite a second child death in Texas, Governor Abbott has not said a word. Vaccine clinics in San Antonio have to close because of Republican funding cuts while we are experiencing the worst measles outbreak in decades. Lives are at stake—vaccines are needed to combat this outbreak.

There’s no debate: so-called ‘conversion therapy’ is a dangerous practice, not therapy, and it has no place in our communities. These bans exist to protect LGBTQ+ children from harm—period.

The Court must uphold the 10th Circuit decision, finding that these laws are constitutional.

Early reports to WHO from the 30 highest #tuberculosis (TB)-burden countries confirm that funding cuts from foreign aid, particularly from USAID, are already dismantling essential TB services.

Without urgent action, these setbacks will reverse decades of progress to #EndTB 🔗 bit.ly/4kvsu2i

Working class Americans live 6 years shorter lives than the wealthy. Doctors believe economic stress is a major factor in that disparity.

I asked Americans to describe how stress impacts their lives & well-being. The responses were heartbreaking.

Donald Trump and Republicans are making flying more dangerous.

This will increase the probability for plane accidents.

Texas has two of the largest airports in the country (DFW + IAH) yet Governor Greg Abbott stays mute about this danger.
