the mRNA vaccines are an absolute miracle of science that saved millions of lives and we're going to throw the entire technology out because they could not vaccinate society against putting the worst and most ignorant people alive in charge of our medical system

The people of Missouri made it very clear: They wanted abortion rights (at least until fetal viability). Alas, the Missouri Supreme Court doesn’t seem to be inclined to listen.

‘McKenzie says a better plan to deal with fascism is to continue to publish and pay the Nazis. Giving them the ability to earn money and distribute their ideas, he reasons, will ultimately help to “strip bad ideas of their power” by exposing them to scrutiny’

We helped unseal an affidavit revealing how ICE got a “judicial fig leaf” to search two Columbia students’ dorm rooms.

It is amazing to me that Dems are pressured to water down their messaging in order to avoid alienating 'centrists,' but Republicans can round up and deport sobbing children without fear of alienating 'centrists.' Says a lot about what we mean when we say 'centrists'

“Millions of people who are financially comfortable now may be just one bad break away from needing Medicaid for themselves or a member of their immediate family. Without coverage, the cost of care for an aging parent or a sick or disabled child — of any age — can be ruinous.”

“These Senators are about to hand Trump and his allies exactly what they need to silence opposition and control the online conversation.”

Not just that, but Schimel is now echoing false claims of widespread fraud & 'ballot stuffing' more and more frequently & explicitly. And that'd surely shape how he rules if he joins the court: apnews.com/article/wisc...

After Trump narrowly won Wisconsin in 2016, then-Attorney General Brad Schimel said the state's new strict voter IDs made the margin of difference for Trump. Now, Schimel is running to join the state supreme court, flip to conservatives, & uphold GOP voting laws: boltsmag.org/wisconsin-20...

‘No Way to Please Everyone’ Says Only University Where Students Are Regularly Kidnapped

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.
