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.

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.

We advocate for NO subsidies on meat, every meat and dairy associated subsidy should be immediately redirected into building wildlife overpasses, removing the 600,000 miles of barbed wire abandoned on public lands and installing wildlife safe guide fencing along highways.

And we'd save billions.

How does recovering wildlife populations help climate ?
Today public land is severely overgrazed by invasive species but grasslands can recover much faster than forests, offering a chance to quickly capture massive amounts of carbon from the atmosphere.

Step 1
Get invasive livestock off public land

US blocks Canadian access to cross-border library, sparking outcry US officials claim move was to curb drug trafficking while Quebec town says it β€˜weakens collaboration’ among nations The US has blocked Canadian access to a library straddling the Canada-US border, drawing criticism from a Quebec town where people have long enjoyed easy entry to the space. The Haskell Free Library and Opera House is located between Stanstead, Quebec, and Derby Line, Vermont. It was built deliberately to straddle the frontier between the two countries – a symbol of cooperation and friendship between Canada and the US. Continue reading...

Hi
just wanted to say I have
been watching and absorbing your videos and others. I want to sincerely thank you for the insights, perspective, and work that has gone into the messages, I know they will impact others (not just me) and as always, you have done a phenomenal job. I am not responding for two reasons: first, l really did not have any issue with Imani and said in a video that I think she is phenomenal. However any attempt to explain what I was saying is not met well & I just do not want to add fuel to the fire - as well as I am taking a serious moment to absorb how badly I fucked up, this was newer intended. Second, I was in fact doxxed and it was not Imani, but it does potentially put myself and the people work with in danger, many are bright young scientist, my entire team that I work with daily are POC and it would break my heart if anything happened to them. I may very well be fired this week, it is under review. These issues are why I was so careful not to have any account with laughterinlight ever linked to anything in the public domain with my name. Long story short this is now a legal matter.

These issues are why I was so careful not to have any account with laughterinlight ever linked to anything in the public domain with my name. Long story short this is now a legal matter. I will do my best to shield Imani from anything that comes of it, she does important work and yes, I fucked up, yes she called me out, and there are multiple screenshots of her liking the comment with my personal information. I have told everyone I have talked to not to get involved, NOT to go after her. digital communications are likely to come to light in this process. Again, thank you for the videos, the commentary, both on this and so many other important topics. You do amazing work. If I had ever know a quick post about how I was feeling after seeing some videos would land like this I would have never posted. I hope all is well for you and as always I will be cheering for your work and the work of others, but now silently for a long while. Be well, you are amazing.

Hey, I need this shared far and wide. These liberals are committed to lying and never have I ever doxxed these people. In fact, they said so themselves 2 years ago.
