Idaho lost one in three obstetricians after its abortion ban
New research confirms: Crackdowns on reproductive rights have harmful ripple effects across local health care.
Two months after the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade, in June 2022, Idahoโs trigger ban outlawing most abortionsโone of the strictest nationwideโtook effect.
According to a new peer-reviewed paper study, Idaho lost more than a third of its OBsโ94 of 268 totalโafterwards.

What a weak attempt at Trump-style intimidation.
If the state of Texas has any law left in it, the court will immediately dismiss this farce.

t took six months for a Trump official to be politely forced by a journalist to admit live on air what everyone - including every economist - knows to be true (but which Trump keeps lying about): tariffs are paid in the US by US importers.
What an indictment of our media.

Inside Trumpโs New Tactic to Separate Immigrant Families
Leave the country or stay, and if you choose to stay, we'll put your kids in a shelter. Is this the new ICE mantra? The New York Times has uncovered at least nine cases in which parents have been separated from their children after they refused to comply with deportation orders.

Contact your state's Attorney General
ICE is detaining citizens without cause. Dictators use disappearances to try to silence dissent. Sound familiar?
Urge your state's Attorney General to fight for enforcement of protections against unlawful arrest without due process.

โWhen those people leave, that is a huge body of institutional knowledge that [walks] out of that state. Itโs a big dang deal.โ

It's important to note three things:
1. the president CANNOT order a new census.
2. the president has no control over who gets counted
3. Undocumented people CAN be counted but almost never are because...undocumented people generally do not fill out forms from the government.

Growing up, my aunt would always yell "Mister Rogers on!" & I would speed into the living room because she was a fan of the show too. She worked a lot so this was one of the only times we'd get to chill & it was courtesy of a show hosted by a man that just wanted us to be decent people.

An old Apple Computer logoโan apple in rainbow stripes. Under it is written โThink differentโ
Iโm old enough to remember when Apple used the slogan, โThink different.โ These days, they seem to be living a new credo: โThink capitulation.โ
