Never again wonder why Russia was willing to spend billions getting Trump into office.

14 US states have abortion bans, leading to a rise in maternal and infant mortality. Global experience shows that criminalizing abortion doesn't increase birth rates - it risks women’s health and lives, making it harder to obtain legal medical care and forcing them into clandestine abortions.

Let's talk about the midterms.
ICE is terrorizing and punishing blue states and cities to suppress your votes using fear from ICE- yes it's already started.
Blue states need to wake up and have a plan to deploy the National Guard to protect polling stations & voters from the federal government!

The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”

It’s time to put scientific guidance at the heart of climate policy
Scientific consensus indicates that global warming has reached the 1.5°C threshold, requiring climate policy to shift from commitments to the rapid, science-aligned phase-out of fossil fuels.
