This morning, theΒ Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

A federal judge ORDERS an evidentiary hearing to determine whether Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been vindictively prosecuted.

Abrego’s lawyers carried their burden of demonstrating enough evidence to warrant it.

A student 'womb service' works covertly to deliver contraception at a Catholic college At DePaul University, a Catholic school in Chicago, students have created a covert contraceptive delivery network called β€œthe womb service.”

On the one hand, I'm so proud and in awe of these young people who are taking care of their community.

On the other, I can't believe in 2025 that women have been reduced to starting underground birth control networks

SB 323 is model legislation from National Right to Life - so this is their roadmap for all of us:

- no exceptions for rape, incest, fatal fetal abnormalities
- patients charged with murder
- birth control ban
- ban on pro-choice websites, abortion referrals, or even general info on abortion
