Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

What's happened since?

A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.
Criminalizing pregnancy: A record number of women were prosecuted the year after Dobbs
They were targeted for substance use, miscarriages, and stillbirths, largely driven by fetal personhood laws.

Genuinely amused that there could be so much hate for the new #Pope because he has actual values and is anti-hate. Excited to see what’s in store in this new era of the Catholic Church.
Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, a native of Chicago who is now the first American-born pope, has spent most of his career outside of the U.S, ministering to the dispossessed and marginalized.

The “Latin Yankee,” as he is known in Rome, worked 20 years in Peru.

Maddow: I think it is a bad mistake to let Joy Reid walk out the door. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we've got two nonwhite hosts in primetime, both of our nonwhite hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend. I do not defend it.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Can someone please explain to me like if I was a child in elementary school. How is it not illegal to continue to spread lies and misinformation? I am genuinely disgusted and appalled by our “Official White House” accounts looking like some trash, fake news media outlet. #howdidwegethere

This is why education is important. People need to stop getting tidbits of news and assuming they are facts. Pete answered beautifully.

The same Republicans trying to put a man accused of child sex trafficking at the top of the DOJ and an anti-vaxxer atop HHS, are telling us that the reason they’re banning drag queens, gender affirming care & books with two mommies is because they want to ‘protect our kids.’

Bullshit.
