Laws restricting abortions linked to rise in 'abhorrently high' maternal mortality rates
Rising state-level abortion restrictions in the United States were linked to a similar, parallel rise in maternal deaths from 2005 to 2023, according to research presented at The Pregnancy Meeting. ...
Researchers have found that 6 of 10 abortion restrictions β bans on Medicaid funding for abortion, mandated waiting periods, 2nd-trimester abortion bans, ACA marketplace insurance coverage bans, biased counseling laws, and ultrasound requirements β were linked to higher rates of maternal mortality.

Let's be done with the "if there even *IS* an election" gotcha. We know. The thought has occurred to all of us. It's unhelpful. I'm going to continue behaving as if I'm not powerlessβas if totalitarianism isn't inevitable. Because it's not, and I'm not.

Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer?
You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice β not with their perpetrators.
So I would say to Pam Bondi: If youβre going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then youβre not a real lawyer.

Facts:
The federal government has no authority over elections.
States certify their own elections.
Mail in voting is still legal.
Any chance to Election Clause of the Constitution requires 2/3 of both House and Senate and 3/4 of States to amend the Constitution....that ain't happening.

Two ICE-Gestapo killers have been placed on leave after lying under oath about a violent encounter they supposedly faced during their seige in Minneapolis. They face termination and criminal charges.
Good, they arenβt agents, they are terrorists. They should all be sent to jail.
