A Georgia mother is being forced to keep her brain-dead daughter alive because she’s pregnant and Georgia’s abortion laws are archaic.

They’re forcing the family to pay to keep this woman alive — with an unviable baby — against their will.

It was never just about schools, it was never just about libraries, and it isn't actually about the books.

It's about finding a way to banish entire people, entire ideas, out of society, back into the closet or worse.

This is part of what’s so insane. As they talk about re-shoring and manufacturing they are actively trying to destroy an entire us manufacturing industry that already exists.

Getting #measles doesn’t confer benefits on the immune system — in fact, it’s just the opposite.

Bombshell in North Carolina: the state's GOP-dominated Court of Appeals just sided with the GOP candidate in last year's supreme court race.

Their decision would toss roughly 60,000 ballots (!) that have been counted, & likely hand the election to GOP instead of incumbent Dem Justice who won it.

HEB is a Texas gem. Best grocery chain in the country.
Sadly, I just discovered I have a massive trade deficit with them. I buy their stuff, they never buy mine, no matter how dank or kind!
So, I’m slapping a 40% tariff on them. I’ll be charging myself 40% more from now on. That’ll show em.
