This is so heartbreaking and makes nothing better and no one safer. It is the punitive act of an administration that values fealty over human health.
A top scientist at Harvard who has spent years unraveling the mysteries of tuberculosis woke up Tuesday morning and discovered an order from the federal government telling her to halt her research.

Leading Harvard scientist ordered to halt research in funding freeze - The Boston Globe
Researchers may have to kill macaques, a kind of primate used in a vaccine study, due to the order.

Who benefits from an economic crisis? Trump does. He declares an economic emergency—then manufactures one—which allows him to expand his power. Under the National Emergencies Act (NEA), the president can unlock more than 120 special statutory powers. No wonder he was just out golfing—crisis pays.

I'm not concerned about the undocumented immigrant with some parking and speeding tickets. I'm concerned about the American citizen with 34 felony convictions who is driving America right into a fucking ditch.

I spoke to a South Carolina woman today who is miscarrying - her fetus has no heartbeat - but the state's ban is preventing doctors from taking action.
She has to walk around with a dead fetus for another week so she can get a FOURTH ultrasound.
This is what bans do.

Rep. Himes: “As far as I can tell, we are now on team Kremlin. We vote with them and against our allies in the UN. We humiliate President Zelensky in the Oval Office. The president's chief Russia negotiator, Steve Witkoff, is repeating Russian talking points.”

Texas Republicans are trying to revive a 100-year-old abortion ban that would allow them to prosecute abortion funds and maybe even patients.
Just as bad, they've tricked Democrats and doctors into supporting the legislation

The police sent this woman's fetus out for an 'autopsy' and found that it was a "natural miscarriage." As far as I can tell, the charges against her haven't been dropped.

A Georgia woman has been arrested for how she disposed of her miscarriage.
Police say the woman was charged with “concealing the death of another person” and “abandonment of a dead body” because she put fetal remains in the trash.

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted… And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.

If HB 4130 passes, politicians—not medical professionals—would dictate how pregnancy loss is recorded and how medical language is defined.

The only takeaway from last night's SOTU speech that actually matters so far as our future is concerned is that only ONE democrat was removed from the chamber for standing up to Trump's bullshit. Only one old democrat with a cane and no fucks left for fascism.
It should have been ALL of them.
It should have been ALL of them.

We are going to see 'coercion' a lot in this case and others moving forward. The GOP thinks voters won't realize this is a strategy years in the making.
So please spread the word, and know that when you see 'coercion,' it's well-planned tactic—not concern for women or girls
