Let's be clear about what's happening: Trump gaslit voters about his abortion stance during the campaign because winning meant staying out of prison.

His administration is now pushing off abortion pill restrictions until after the midterms to try keep the House and prevent Trump being impeached

NEW: FDA asks judge to pause a lawsuit seeking to end telehealth prescriptions of abortion pill mifepristone until agency completes its unnecessary “review” of the drug.

This is NOT Trump admin defending abortion access—it’s buying time until after midterms

“I am Puerto Rican,” she says. “I send my kids with their passports to school. I’m having conversations with them about safety: Am I safe at school? A week ago we had an incident where there was a school bus with the STOP sign open and kids were getting on the bus and it was surrounded by ICE agents. And this is 7:20 in the morning and — just — you get that fight-or-flight response.” At first her 9-year-old was carrying her passport in her backpack; now it’s in her back pocket. “I have to prepare them for it if they get stopped,” she says. “I said, Do not engage. This is not the time to be cussing at anyone. But she said, Mom, if I create enough noise, my friends can get away.”

A reminder that every day brings a new horror, and we still have not addressed the horrors that stretch back to the first actions of this administration.
10 months later, I'm the last Columbia protester still in ICE custody
Inside the ICE facility where I'm being held, conditions are filthy, overcrowded and inhumane. None of us deserve to be treated this way.

Kicking off Senate Republicans' sham hearing on medication abortion by making absolutely clear:

MIFEPRISTONE IS SAFE AND EFFECTIVE.

This hearing is not about science. It's about Republicans trying to ban abortion nationwide.
