BIG NEWS: A Wyoming judge just struck down WY's abortion bans.

And get this: The judge invoked a constitutional amendment codifying a right to make health care decisions... that was passed in 2012 by conservatives who thought it'd screw Obamacare! Just backfired.

We explained this lawsuit here:
How Attacks Against Obamacare Turned Into Tools to Protect Abortion Access
Conservatives amended state constitutions to affirm broad rights for people to choose their health care. Now abortion rights proponents are taking them at their word.

When these guys are emboldened by the election results, it doesn’t reflect too well on your political party.

👋For those who don’t know me, let me introduce myself.

My name is Sam Schwartz and I’m 20 years old. I became involved in politics after my cousin Alex was killed in the Parkland shooting. (That’s us below).

Now, I fight to end gun violence. Give me a follow if you’re with me!

I just wanted to mention this setting does exist in your Settings to limit people who are logged-out from viewing your account

It won't block everything but if it's something people are concerned about it is a change they can make

It's under Settings>Moderation at the bottom

Is there going to be anyone in the Trump administration who has NOT committed sexual assault?

Donald Trump is now (1) below 50% popular vote and (2) has a margin of popular vote victory roughly HALF of Hillary's victory in 2016. They believe the left has to lay down and shut up because of this "landslide" victory.

Taryn was brutally attacked in front of her children, including the 6 yr old son of her & her abuser.

The election has left us all traumatized but maybe we can heal a little by helping her.

I’ll personally match the next $1,000 in donations.

Please help if you can and share this if you see it.
Please help our very good friend & her children who are recent survivors of domestic violence to be able to get out of the home currently in her abuser’s name

I will give everyone who donates any amount or who helps by boosting & sharing this an immediate follow back

Thank you!🙏

TIL that one reason raw milk is having a comeback is a lot of people don't know what pasteurization is. They think it's adding "chemicals" not a rapid heat treatment

The reason we know about RFK Jr’s brain worm is that he mentioned it during a divorce deposition, to argue that he was cognitively impaired and therefore had limited earning potential.
Now he’s up for a cabinet post

The people who scream the loudest about “protecting our children” seem awfully quiet about the new head of HHS regularly hanging out with a twice convicted pedophile.

RFK advised American Samoa to stop using the MMR vaccine and 83 people died including children. He could do the same nationally and kill thousands.

People will die.

RFK Jr. spent years stoking fear and mistrust of vaccines. These people were hurt by his work
The book, called “Cause Unknown,” was co-published by an anti-vaccine group led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is now running for president.

Bob Kennedy at HHS is an abomination of abominations. I hope he loves all of the horrible stories about him that are rightfully going to resurface and expand over the next few months. Enjoy.

Early conversations about what to call posts
If we are in Bluesky, then when I share my thoughts and they are sad, would I be raining on Bluesky? And if I’m sharing positive thoughts, would I be beaming my sun rays across the sky? Am I taking this metaphor too far?
