Inside the ‘Diabolical’ Campaign to Ban Abortion Pills by Rebranding the Comstock Act Conservative groups have launched a PR campaign to frame the Comstock Act of 1873 as an anti-drug trafficking law. One expert compared it to the Nixon administration’s manufactured War on Drugs.

Huge thanks to @jezebeldotcom.bsky.social for the opportunity to talk about what this political moment means for access to abortion pills and why things are going down the way they are right now. There are no new tricks, and it would behoove us to remember that.

UUA, Other Religious Groups Sue Trump Administration to Halt Immigration Arrests at Houses of Worship The Trump policy allowing raids in houses of worship violates the First Amendment and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), the lawsuit argues.

UUA said it is proud to be a plaintiff, adding, “We join this multifaith coalition to challenge the ending of ICE’s sensitive locations policy, and oppose any interpretation of law which would allow immigration raids in houses of worship and religious ceremonies.” www.uuworld.org/articles/imm...

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?

hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.

Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

prior to COVID it was normal for the staff of infusion rooms to mask, since so many infusion patients are being treated for cancer or are post-transplant

and we’re all immunocompromised or we wouldn’t be there

now they never mask
