ABC pays $15M to Trump for saying exactly what the judge in the E. Jean Carroll case said! Stunning capitulation!

ProPublica recently reported on two women — Josseli Barnica and Nevaeh Crain — who died in Texas after they couldn’t access timely reproductive care.

Now, more than 100 Texas OB-GYNs have signed a letter blaming their deaths on the state’s laws.

🚨 On 11/20, Congress will vote on H.R. 9495.

#HR9495 would give Trump and his admin of loyalists unprecedented power to silence & shut down nonprofits they personally dislike.

A thread on birthright citizenship I wrote in 2018, that unfortunately remains relevant.

Where we are headed: Abolishing birthright citizenship for the non-white and non-rich. And why I teach on United States v. Wong Kim Ark every semester.

Who was Wong Kim Ark? 1/

Millions of AAPIs share our deep concern for the safety and well-being of our communities and our nation under the next Trump administration. We know all too well how he embraces racist, xenophobic rhetoric and enshrines hate into policies. 🧵

We're outraged that, under Colleen Shogan, the U.S. Archives spent the last 12 months scrubbing U.S. history of watershed moments from Japanese Incarceration to the Civil Rights Movement — on grounds that it's too “negative & controversial.”

This is censorship plain & simple. 🧵

Know your rights when voting.

Every person has different motivation(s) for voting. Mine are simple. I want a president and representatives that believes in the inherent dignity and human rights of all people and will use their power and authority towards that end. #IVoted

We must all condemn this kind of dangerous rhetoric that incites hate and violence against immigrants. There are serious consequences for this type of recklessness.

[Sarah Reese Jones @PoliticusSarah]

This is pure racism as Trump claimed sick migrants are coming to the US to infect the country, "very sick with highly contagious disease and they are let into our country to infect our country."
