Our analysis, which shows that more women nearly bled to death during miscarriage after Texas banned abortion, adds to a growing body of reporting revealing that maternal outcomes have gotten worse under bans.
Miscarriage Is Increasingly Dangerous for Women in Texas, Our Analysis Shows. Here’s How We Did It.
Using seven years of hospital discharge data, we found that the number of blood transfusions during emergency room visits for first-trimester miscarriage shot up by 54% since Texas banned abortion.

Chris Smothers, genealogist, traced Leo XIV's ancestors to Creoles in New Orleans. He is American, North and South, through and through, black and white, the best of both worlds. A pope for all of us. I hope this is true. I love surprise endings--almost as good as Conclave.

Trump rode to political prominence on birtherism and spent the last month of his campaign claiming that Haitians were eating cats.

There's also seemingly no acknowledgement of a massive right-wing propaganda machine stirring this sentiment up. Where it does exist it's largely a manufactured, tribal outrage, it's not actually regular people getting so offended they go fash over this stuff. That's important.

“In reality, Trump won by less than 1.5 percent and took less than 50 percent of all votes cast. His popular vote margin was one-third as large as Biden’s and the second-narrowest in 60 years. There was no “mandate,” let alone a “massive” one.”

Rand Paul has introduced a National Right to Work Act.
The bill is an attack on organized labor and workers across the country.
It would make it harder for workers to unionize, win good contracts, and maintain their unions.

Trump is blacklisting a news outlet for using a name he doesn't like.
It's that simple.
So why aren't more reporters and media outlets speaking out more vehemently to help The AP? In part, I'm told, it's because the WH Correspondents' Association is trying to work out a solution behind the scenes.
