Mifepristone is a safe, essential medicine that so many women depend on in some of the hardest moments of their lives. When access to this care is taken away, the need doesn’t vanish. It just becomes harder to meet—and far more dangerous.
Last year, while visiting Louisiana to understand how the shifting landscape is affecting our communities, I heard heartbreaking stories from mothers denied treatment during grave crises in their pregnancies and doctors forced to delay care when every minute counts.
Friday’s ruling is a blow to families across the country, who suffer when women are stripped of the ability to make decisions about their own health and futures.
Everyone deserves health care that’s guided by science, not politics.

Calvin Duncan, a man imprisoned for 30 years before he was exonerated, won an election in New Orleans promising to fix a judicial system that failed him

North Carolina, we're officially on the road to November 3rd.
There’s no doubt — we’ve got our work cut out for us. But North Carolinians have always given me hope and that’s what’s going to get us across the finish line.
Hi, I’m a pregnant OBGYN and I take a baby aspirin every day to prevent preeclampsia and I take Tylenol as needed for pain and headaches. I refuse to put myself at higher risk for hypertensive disease, which is common in Black women, or suffer in pain for 40 weeks.
The stumble is a warning - but not in the way Ross thinks. It’s a warning to everyone on the left - from the liberals in the center to the socialists on the far left: the rightwingers and their friends in the mainstream media will happily engage in smear campaigns and gotchas against Dems in way they never do against the GOP. That we are all talking about this AOC Taiwan answer and not the rest of her answers, or even the fact that the president is an imbecile and an ignoramus who couldn’t find Taiwan on a map of his life depended on it is what’s revealing and Dems need to be ready for this media climate come 2028

Jeff Bezos fired more than 300 people and didn’t even arrange for them to get safely home.
Staffers were abandoned in foreign countries and war zones and are having to crowd source to get home.
One of the richest men in the world left them behind.
If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.
Democracy dies in oligarchy.

@JeffBezos
Epstein was convicted in 2008 of procuring a child for prostitution.
He was a registered level 3 (highest risk of re-offending) sex offender in New York after 2010.
Everyone emailing him and hanging out with him after that did so knowing he was a child sex trafficker.
So,
Remember when Google dropped this Black History Month commercial in 2020?
That’s what honoring Black history looks like, telling the truth loudly, not sanitizing it when it makes people uncomfortable.
Happy Black History Month.
