I worked at Planned Parenthood.

They diagnose cancers while still treatable. They help women decide what birth control works for them. They help those working through mental health challenges.
 
Defunding them just harms people who already struggle to find places to get care.

BREAKING: Republicans just blocked my amendment to ensure Veterans, foster kids and the homeless aren’t denied SNAP benefits.

There is no one Republicans won’t betray to ram through tax cuts for their billionaire buddies.

This is 100% the fault of ICE and the Trump admin, which has deliberately incentivized this behavior with their tactics. Their goal is to encourage white nationalist groups to dress up as ICE to attack minorities, and the increase in lookalike crimes is to them an acceptable byproduct.
Philly local tv station reporting that a man allegedly posed as an ICE agent in order to rob a car repair business office.
How many other criminals might be getting this idea right now, given that actual ICE agents are refusing to show IDs, warrants, badges?

Christian Nationalists pretend that the United States was founded as a Christian nation, but the Constitution never mentions Jesus or Christianity. Not even once. Instead, it bans government promotion of *any* religion. Don't be fooled by their lying propaganda.

It’s especially galling that AG Pam Bondi personally wrote the memo approving the gift of the Qatari airplane. Her last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar! efile.fara.gov/docs/6415-Ex...

WATCH: “This is how Fox spreads disinformation. It’s sad to see Alexis McAdams be part of that machine.”

Receipts of Fox News lying to their audience about the arrest of Mayor Ras Baraka with false headlines and selectively edited clips. As usual.

1/ For ProPublica’s “Life of the Mother” series, winner of the 2025 Pulitzer Prize for public service, we reported on five pregnant women who died after not receiving timely medical care in states with strict abortion bans.

These are their stories 🧵

I’m so confused by the folks who said that raising the minimum wage would increase the price of every day goods while also being okay with tariffs raising the price of every day goods…

I reckon they are okay paying higher prices as long as it doesn’t help anyone making a minimum wage.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.

This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

RFK Jr. is very loud and very WRONG about Autism.

1. It’s not a disease
2. There are thousands of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder who pay taxes, have jobs, can use the bathroom on their own, and are thriving in life.

I think it's wild that they can continue lying about the number of people Biden supposedly let in when that number is absolutely not verified.

There were 10.3 million encounters total during his term, so where is the other 10 million?

Oh that's right. We can just make up bullshit now.

Good morning ppl! The 19th of this month, a large portion of the FDA goes dark, employee wise. This affects everything from communications to you to loss of study data and shutting down of offices that protect you. Things are getting less safe all over.

Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us.

It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin.

You must understand what is truly at stake here.

All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US.

When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

Not Antisemitism (according to MAGA):

- Firebombing a Jewish governor‘s house during Passover
- Doing a Sieg Hitler salute
- Eating dinner with neo-Nazis

Antisemitism (according to MAGA):

- Saying Israelis and Palestinians deserve rights and dignity
- Using freedom of speech on campus

If the government can pay a foreign state to imprison you and, in so doing, remove you from the protection of US law, the Constitution is worthless.

There's a lot going on, God knows, but don't miss that the President of the United States is using the full force of the Federal government, as well as tax dollars, to punish a state because its Governor... refused to do as he instructed.

Please ignore tired pieces in publications like the Atlantic that are still trying to stigmatize mask wearing.

Wearing a mask to prevent sickness from airborne viruses is a science-informed position, and it has been that way for over 100 years.

Just watched the President's "Liberation Day" speech.

Based on this, I can confirm many Americans will be liberated from:

- Being able to afford groceries
- Much of their retirement savings
- Any hope of buying a home

As for lower prices? Just the opposite.
