Missouri challenges FDA approval of new generic mifepristone in push to limit abortion โ€ข Missouri Independent The challenge to the latest form of generic mifepristone is part of a larger attempt to limit access to medication abortion at a national level.

Missouri voters overturned a complete abortion ban at the ballot last year.

It is still difficult to receive reproductive care in the state because the Missouri GOP doesn't give two shits about the will or the voices of Missourians.

The president of the United States threatened to have sitting members of Congress hanged...executed... they now face death threats and political violence from Tr*mp's cult.

But 86 @housedemocrats.bsky.social think socialism is the threat to the American people.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

When a President calls for the death of lawmakers protecting the oath military members take to the Constitution (NOT the President), you are watching a full-blown Constitutional Crisis. This is the ultimate test of our democracy. We cannot look away.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that โ€œwe need to rebuild trust in science,โ€ because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

The Eric Schickler essay in Larry Bartel's symposium on "What Trump Has Taught Us About Political Science" is one of the most insightful pieces I've read in 2025.

US institutions turned out to be weak, and we have to rethink conventional wisdom.

"While any gerrymandering can arguably violate that principle, what we are being asked to do goes far beyond the partisan map fights that happen every 10 years across the country. Rationalizing a mid-cycle redistricting by saying, 'Democrats gerrymander too' is an empty and irrelevant excuse.
"Instead, we are being asked to create a new culture in which it would be normal for a political party to select new voters, not once a decade - but any time it fears the consequences of an approaching election. That would clearly violate the concept of popular sovereignty by making it harder for the people to hold their elected officials accountable and the country would be an uglier place for it.
"If a special session is called, I will stay true to my oath of office by standing up for the principle that candidates should win on the strength of their ideas and not on their ability to choose new voters."

Several Republican state senators in Indiana have blocked Governor Mike Braunโ€™s attempts to gerrymander.

Here is a quote from one them, Spencer Deery. It is a relief to know that some Republicans seem to understand the purpose of electionsโ€ฆalbeit rarely.

Trump is furious about it.
