“Ticking Time Bomb”: A Pregnant Mother Kept Getting Sicker. She Died After She Couldn’t Get an Abortion in Texas. Walker is one of several women ProPublica found with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions.

NEW:

In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant.

She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency.

Then she died.

Falcons WR Drake London (hip) is out for today's game.

Not only are the Falcons down their starting QB, but now without his top WR. A challenge for Kirk Cousins.

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

Poland threatens Putin with arrest if he flies through its airspace on way to Hungary – as it happened Poland’s foreign minister says Putin’s plane could be escorted down as attacks continue with four killed in drone strike in Chernihiv

Ahhh yes, nothing says America First quite like, homelessness, furlough employees going without pay, farmers struggling and every day American families barely affording to pay rent or eat; than Kristi Noem’s two shiny new jets for a cool $172 million 👇🏾

Johnson: They go before cameras incredibly and just lie to the American people. Over and over. It's a stunning thing to watch

Raskin details how he tried to get unanimous consent today to force Johnson to swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the Acting Speaker Haridopolos "scurried out of the room"

So we’re now paying federal taxes so Donald Trump can withdraw them from the Treasury like it’s his own personal bank account? Really?

Handful of DODEA schools directed to reinstate books removed by order of Trump A federal judge ordered the immediate reinstatement of nearly 600 titles at the five Department of Defense Education Activity schools.

Trump keeps losing in court because in America, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are supreme—not the president. This is a meaningful free speech victory against MAGA censorship for America’s students and military families as Judge Giles orders hundreds of books returned to the classroom!

If you’re in the military and have NAZI tats you need to be thrown the fuck out of the military. These bastards will make Black men disfigure their faces shaving but won’t ask white men not to get racist tats? DAFUQ?!?!

Top five in the nation – Ta’Niya Latson is an AP Preseason All-American!

All he got is the blood of Jesus and prayers of Christian Black Americans thankfully a mighty combination

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.

And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”

Clayton Kershaw gets a standing ovation from the fans and teammates as he warms up before his final home start. He tells them to quit it, lol.

IT'S TIME FOR THE TRUTH TO COME OUT!!!

TRUMP & EPSTEIN ARE SEX TRAFFICKERS!!! I’m gonna post this every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared.

Today the Oversight Committee sat down with Alex Acosta. What we heard only confirmed what we already knew: he cut a sweetheart deal for Epstein, silenced victims, and let a predator walk free.

I will admit: it does disappoint me to see so many Black women reacting to Kimmel and Colbert getting fired (two mega-millionaires) when 320,000 Black women have been systematically pushed out of their jobs this year with little public fanfare or concern.

I truly worry about us.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. is the third player in Yankees history to join the 30-30 club‼️

He joins Alfonso Soriano (2002, 2003) and Bobby Bonds (1975).

Prince George’s County Residents Speak Out Amid Plans For Massive Data Center A task force to examine the feasibility of a hyperscale data center in the predominantly Black suburb was created in May.

Nearly 300 residents and advocates showed up *in the rain* to protest plans for a massive data center in their community

Leaders listened and there's a pause on development, for now

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

From dormant to dominant: Why Dominique Malonga could save the Storm The Storm knew all along Dominique Malonga would emerge as a key part of their WNBA title hopes -- whether it's this year or in years to come.

Insightful story from my ESPN colleague @kumaraishwarya.bsky.social looking at the making of Dominique Malonga and how the No. 2 pick handled a small role early in her rookie season while continuing to develop behind the scenes: www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

If you think there isn’t systemic racism in the #WNBA ask yourself how the league would react if Angel Reese approached a ref once the way Caitlin Clark does regularly.

WNBA veteran is (quietly) making history — and a strong MVP case Phoenix Mercury star Alyssa Thomas has put together the best season of her career. is it enough for an MVP?
