Two months after the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade, in June 2022, Idaho’s trigger ban outlawing most abortions—one of the strictest nationwide—took effect.

According to a new peer-reviewed paper study, Idaho lost more than a third of its OBs—94 of 268 total—afterwards.

Two friends in my garden today. I know they eat the leaves, but if they find my garden healthy enough to eat, I'm honored.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday.

This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.

Karen Bass: "The 100 National Guard soldiers that are downtown LA are guarding one federal building, so there is no need for this...it's all part of an experiment that is taking place in Los Angeles...what happens when the federal government intervenes and takes power away from a governor & mayor?"

THIS is UN-Constitutional, and a SEVERE violation of the LAW.
NEVER BEFORE in America, has ANY news crew been ARRESTED AND ESCORTED away from their jobs to report the REAL NEWS!
I HOPE CNN is getting the lawsuits ready!!!

If you incite violence or destroy our communities, you are going to be held accountable. 

That kind of criminal behavior will not be tolerated. Full stop.

Donald Trump deployed more than 700 active U.S. Marines — men and women trained in foreign combat, not domestic law enforcement.

We honor their service and bravery. But we do not want our streets militarized by our own Armed Forces. Not in L.A. Not in California. Not anywhere.
