Striking. After Texas banned abortion, ER visits for early miscarriage rose 25% and blood transfusions surged 54%.

Doctors delayed care like D&Cs out of fear of prosecution. More women nearly bled to death. buff.ly/egXhmm7

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

Shame on Etsy for allowing "Alligator Alcatraz" merchandise to be sold on its site. Profiting off supporting a concentration camp is crossing way over the line.

You're dead naming military bases after fervent state rights believers while ordering the Marines into California?

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work.

You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules.

Get your lies straight.

If you wonder why men *obsessed* with the United States having more children are kidnapping children and sending them to other countries, those children were the incorrect color.

What Senator Van Hollen did was important. It got Americans focused on the extrajudicial shenanigans of the Trump administration. And the resulting blowback rattled Trump. It is no coincidence that the very next day he starting distancing him from decisions to sling Garcia into a concentration camp.

Van Hollen: This case is not just about one man. It's about protecting the Constitutional rights of everybody who resides in the United States of America.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

The CFPB Has Been Gutted

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau terminated the positions of 1,406 employees at the congressionally mandated agency.

A baseball hat gets Kilmar Abrego García sent to a hellish prison, possibly for life. But an armed mob attacking the Capitol, beating cops, and trying to overturn an election? Apparently that’s patriotism. Justice in America depends on who you are, not what you do.

Marth Stewart went to prison for insider trading on *one* stock.

Marjorie Taylor Greene bought *17* stocks just before Donald Trump declared his "pause" in tariffs that caused those stocks to rise in value.

How many others were tipped off? How many stocks did Donald buy? Ivanka? Mike Johnson?

Your child is more likely to die from measles than get beat by one of their trans peers in an athletic competition, and I wish our government's actions would reflect that.
