I think about this a lot.

their plainly stated goal is to starve forty million people until they get what they want, which is to rip health care away from millions more

that this is too monstrous for most news organizations to tell the truth about does not change the facts

Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to our analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%.

The DOJ has been firing judges with immigrant defense backgrounds NPR's data analysis shows that the DOJ has tended to fire judges with immigrant defense backgrounds in its recent rounds

The Trump regime has fired an estimated 70 immigration judges since February. Nearly half previously defended immigrants in court.

Remember: it was never about legal immigration. It was always about cruelty.

DHS confirmed it has stopped automatically storing officials' text messages.

Instead, officials are supposed to take a screenshot, send that to their work email, download it onto their work computer and run a text-recognition program on it. Every time.

Today is Day 38 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders:

1. Republicans control the White House, Senate and House.

2. GOP making deep cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and ACA.

3. Democrats are fighting to lower costs, cancel the cuts and save healthcare for Americans.

Good grief. This administration is so soft on crime.

From @josephinelee.bsky.social: "From Texas to Florida, Louisiana, and New Jersey, the film reveals how librarians across the country have become victims of a crisis manufactured by national organizations bent on infiltrating and disrupting local school boards."

Good morning to these future governors!

Seems like a good time for the Speaker of the House to swear in Rep. Grijalva.

If there’s one political fact that history can definitely teach us, it’s:
There comes a point where you can’t hurt people and steal from them anymore.

Mamdani:
“We won because we insisted that no longer would politics be something that is done to us.

Now, it is something that we do.”

It’s crucial to remember-Susan Monarez was appointed CDC Director by Trump

She’s not a Democrat they can claim has some agenda

She’s MAGA

And she’s saying that RFK, Jr is ignoring science about vaccines

Which will cause more epidemics like the measles outbreak in Texas

So more children will die

'Jimmy Kimmel Live' Pulled 'Indefinitely' by ABC Over Charlie Kirk Comments 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' was taken off air by ABC and Nexstar after Trump’s FCC chair called on broadcasters to stop airing the show.

“In the hours leading up to the decision to pull Kimmel… Multiple execs felt that Kimmel had not actually said anything over the line, the two sources say, but the threat of Trump administration retaliation loomed.
“They were pissing themselves all day,” one ABC insider tells Rolling Stone.”

In his opening monologue on Monday, Mr. Kimmel had addressed the killing of Mr. Kirk by saying: “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”

Bad headline: "ABC pulls Jimmy Kimmel off air ‘indefinitely’ over Charlie Kirk comments"
Good headline: "ABC bows to government pressure to pull Jimmy Kimmel off air ‘indefinitely’"

Kimmel did not criticize Kirk. He said his death was being exploited and implied the killer was pro MAGA

All Jimmy Kimmel did was call out trump for not giving a damn when asked how he’s doing following Kirk’s murder

Here's the American Federation of Musicians statement on state censorship of the Jimmy Kimmel show. #Union

•ABC: fires Kimmel for mocking Trump
•CBS: fires Colbert for mocking Trump
•ABC: fires Moran for slamming Stephen Miller
•MSNBC: fires Matt Dowd for saying “hateful thoughts lead to hateful actions”

•FOX: Champions Brian Kilmeade as he calls for Nazi state murder of America’s 600K homeless people

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments.

that fox news host still has his job.
