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. (Published July 2025)

NEWS: Democrat Shawn Harris has forced a runoff in the special election for Marjorie Taylor Greene’s deep-red Georgia seat (Trump +37). With ~70% in, Harris leads with 38.3% to Trump-endorsed Republican Clay Fuller’s 34.5%. Runoff set for April 7. A major warning sign for MAGA.

Has anyone pointed out to ICE agents that if they're arresting people solely to collect a bonus, they're not law enforcement officers. They're bounty hunters. I look forward to all of them losing their jobs and being blacklisted from serving in law enforcement.

Katie Wilson is proposing a 7-year, $410 million library levy renewal. The previous 7 year levy approved in 2019 was $219 million. Expanded hours, building infrastructure upgrades, and increased materials are being put front-and-center with the renewal.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

"why would iran mine the strait? they can't export oil either!" are you familiar with the concept of MAD

Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

At every USL game this weekend, USL players paused play for 60 seconds in a powerful show of solidarity. They’re united and ready to fight for the fair contract they deserve. As the players stand still, America’s unions stand with them. #StandUpForStandards

Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion. That's $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. Thousands of lives lost. People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

I do need the American people to stop viewing Trumpism as blunderous policy failure. It is a full court press to subjugate you into poverty and despair. There is no witticism or gotchya or logical superiority that can combat that.

Trump sided with Putin over Ukraine. Putin sided with Iran over the U.S. America, whose side is the President on?

the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

me paying $30 in gas to buy imported things that have been hit with tariffs bc joe rogan is learning about politics at age 58

Make no mistake: the AI boom, and data center construction it requires, is nothing more than a massive giveaway to Big Tech oligarchs at the expense of our environment and our states’ public resources. Our leaders should put communities before Big Tech's bottom lines.

The media often treats Trump like some sort of Zelig-like character, a mere bystander in his own administration w/no agency or ability to shape decisions. It's really infuriating considering Biden and Obama were both expected to own everything going on in the country all the time.

They're going to poison a city with 17 million people

Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."

I think it’s notable that 2025 polling showed Americans of almost every stripe moving toward the anti-DEI side of things. As soon as they saw it play out in government and academia and elsewhere they hated it.

pretty much every poll at this point comes to the incredibly obvious conclusion that republicans absolutely hate this country and living here no matter how much they wrap themselves in the flag

They're still lying on the website: www.foxnews.com/video/639055...

Ilhan Omar: “As someone who has survived the horrors of war, I know that bombs do not build peace or create stability— Military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions & push the region further into chaos — every time we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction”

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

Having some of the most thoroughly redacted thoughts of my life.

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.

Iran’s Foreign Minister says Trump derailed a potential path to de-escalation. He says Iran signaled openness to lowering tensions but Trump’s actions “almost immediately killed” that opportunity, warning if he seeks escalation, it’s “precisely what our Armed Forces have long been prepared for.”

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

I like how my guy here thinks they're dropping special bombs that only hit straight Iranians

every last one of these people need to be tried and jailed as the goons and criminals they are. No exceptions.

Pete Hegseth's murderous buffoonery, coming amid a lifetime in which he's betrayed everyone close to him and failed up from one disaster to the next, is a perfect example of how the appeal of Trumpism is that it creates a permission structure for people to openly be their worst selves

the wife has now informed me that since she has a job that requires her to be at work when her boss wants we will absolutely be changing the clocks and my new project is to find a real problem

"Wow. A big drop" -- CNBC highlights that labor force participation is now the lowest it has been since in late 2021, before the covid vaccine was widely available

I don't know which judge/case Trump is talking about, but NIL exists because it was passed by the California state government, not a court ruling. The Alston case was indeed appealed up to the Supreme Court, which ruled against the NCAA and made things harder.

I think this is a great argument, beautifully constructed

Trump ran on “Biden is pressing the Increase Gas Prices button, and I will press the Decrease Gas Prices button” but it turns out there is no Decrease Gas Prices button, only an Increase Gas Prices button, which Trump keeps intentionally hitting

Waiting for the administration to say the spike in gas prices isn't actually a big deal because so many Americans are losing their jobs and won't have to drive to work anymore.

Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours. Gas prices skyrocketing. Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month. Another war in the Middle East. Are we great again yet?

Need to go after whoever is actually generating these clips. When some 20-something ends up in front of a judge, ready to lose every dollar they have, they will reconsider supporting someone who won't come to their rescue

💡 on the bright side: “cyberbullying” just took on a whole new meaning 🤔

Pretty sure when they started imposing this idiocy they assured a bunch of judges that they would be able to refund the money with no problem if it ever came to that.

This was clear from the jump, but the Venezuela invasion going as smoothly as it did, from a pure operational perspective, is going to prove catastrophic in the long run.

ICYMI: The USL emailed every Championship player an FAQ doc that included guidance on “crossing a picket line” and “Union membership resignation.” An active player said teammates couldn’t find it until they checked spam. “I just think it’s a bunch of bullshit.” Full report at @us.theguardian.com.

Exactly right. The Civil Rights Division was able to show that it took exhaustive (and exhausting) work to litigate even the most obvious violations of the voting rights protections in the 1957 and 1960 acts, which ultimately convinced Congress and then SCOTUS that a much broader law was needed.
