Before you read on, please know that this is a distressing piece about a severe fetal abnormality—and there’s no real way to soften the blow:

I interviewed a 21-year old woman in Texas who was denied an abortion despite her fetus having no head. https://t.co/i6wIvPIFju

just realized that the Ohio Redistricting Commission is overdue by ONE YEAR AND SIX DAYS to redraw our state legislative maps and we're just...letting them get away with that brazen disregard of ohio sup ct orders bc that's how democracy works here in this lil state I guess! 🫠

60 years after Birmingham police attacked Black civil rights activists with police dogs in Kelly Ingram Park, here’s AL police unleashing dog on Black man standing on own front porch. Officer heard shouting in footage, “Bite him! Bite him! Yes! Get him!” https://t.co/rGzsoIA3WM

Editor Commentary: Unconstitutionally gerrymandered Ohio GOP lawmakers captured by special interests ignored the courts and constitution to get power, enacted one of the most restrictive voter laws in the nation, and are now attacking majority voter power

VOTE NO on the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act. This bill would target and stigmatize transgender students. @NEAToday https://t.co/bve3dTQIpU

Long before literal Nazis showed at this weekend’s drag story hour, the City of Wadsworth, Ohio, tried to stop the event. When they couldn’t, they released a statement urging families to avoid the park, denouncing the event.

We need to fucking talk.

Ohio officials have now said there is nothing they can do about their state's recently uncovered Nazi homeschooler network. So, in OH you can graduate from HS having been taught actual racism. But you can't graduate having been taught ABOUT racism as a systemic force.

It’s shocking that the massive ecological & public health disaster in East Palestine OH isn’t the lead story on every network.

Years ago I saw a man with angiosarcoma from vinyl chloride. It was unforgettable.

The long term harms of exposing thousands to this will be terrible.

1. Florida teachers are being told to remove all books from their classroom libraries OR FACE FELONY PROSECUTION

The new policy is based on the premise that teachers are using books to "groom" students or indoctrinate them with leftist ideologies.

Now would be a great time for national media to pay attention for 30 seconds to Ohio’s corruption trial of the century starting today. The one that cemented our spot as “most corrupt state” last year. To say I’ve been disappointed with their disinterest is an understatement.

Say no to Ohio House Join Resolution 6! Write your Legislators to oppose HJR 6 which would weaken the voice of Ohio citizens by requiring a 60% supermajority of voters to pass a citizen-led ballot initiative - https://t.co/XxKgBKLXzb https://t.co/SwhVTfAVTa
