Wow, that's fucked up. Presumably that affects everywhere. So if a woman is dying from pregnancy in any hospital the doctors can't save her.

Did they ban abortion at the state level? That’s causing a lot of obgyns to move because otherwise they get nightmare situations where they have to either break the law and go to prison or let a woman die.

I have seen it a bit and it’s annoying. Liberals cautioning us not to be violent (the last one was absurdly peaceful) and leftists bitching about how non-violent protests do nothing.

I guess Trump wants to increase NYC subway crime to justify sending in the troops.

This is why uneducated people think Democrats are patronizing them. They all talk like professors.

Right. They would watch little children starve to win if they think it won't affect their polls with MAGA.

I think the church has a place in morality, but not the mean little morality of erasing individuality, in the morality of righteous anger against the abusers, the hypocrites, the crooks and the bullies.

"Penn follows Brown University, which similarly said no to the Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education on Wednesday, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which rejected the proposal last week." www.inquirer.com/education/pe...

Penn rejects Trump compact offered to colleges

Brown and MIT have also rejected the proposal, which would have given the White House influence over the universities' operations in exchange for preferential consideration in federal funding.

If only Pratchett was still alive so we could see how the Discworld would incorporate bitcoin. I would do it as a troll currency, each rock-coin being exactly twice the size of the one minted before it, and the City Watch have to figure out how to prevent Ankh-Morpork's bank sinking into the river.

He's protecting his sanity by watching no news whatsoever, listening to no briefings, and locking himself in a large soundproof suitcase whenever his duties give him any free time.

Prince Andrew is not only arrogant and privileged, he is deeply, deeply stupid. Ahead of No Kings, a case study in why monarchy is a terrible system of government.
