Excluding a Palestinian speaker betrays the party’s commitment in our platform to valuing Israelis and Palestinian lives equally. Vice President Harris must unite this party with a vision that fights for everyone, including Palestinians.

My heart is broken💔: As friends & family know, my wife was pregnant with our 2nd child, & about to begin her 2nd trimester. A few days ago she had severe pains, & bleeding, and had to go to the emergency room. There, it was discovered that our baby no longer had a heartbeat. Devastated doesn't come close to what that feels like.
Unfortunately for people like us, because of the current laws in the state of Texas, that was only the beginning of this nightmare. Jess (my wife) had an "incomplete miscarriage", and what needed to happen, what was best for HER, and her health, was to terminate the pregnancy, and get the baby out.
The doctor gave her a medication that would move this process along, and sent her home. Where, apparently we would be handling it ourselves. We were told it might take a couple of attempts before it worked.
I'll let you decide how you feel about that.
After a long, painful night of the equivalent of early labor, the baby was still with her. So, we went back to the Emergency Center to get the 2nd dose. A new doctor was on call. He was an older man. You could hear him in the hallway as he said, "I'm not giving her a pill so she can go home and have an ab*rtion!". Being well aware that our baby no longer had a heartbeat. Then, he came into the room to say, and I quote: "Considering the current stance. I'm not going to prescribe you this pill". Then, just sent us on our way.
The "CURRENT STANCE"?! Did he really just say that?!
No one should ever have to hear their wife say: "Get this dead baby out of me!".
Can you even imagine how that must feel?
The pain, and the bleeding continued. So, we decided to go to another hospital, about an hour away. There was a female doctor on call there, and we thought we might have better luck.
I should probably mention, the procedure to get the baby out is called a D & C. It's scary, & traumatizing, but sometimes necessary in situations like ours. Especially in emergency circumstances.
So we get to the next hospital. They take Jess in, ask her a bunch of questions, do a new scan... confirm that the baby is still there, with no heartbeat, and then disappear... for hours. Only to come back in and keep asking the same questions over and over. It's becoming clear that they're primary concern is NOT my wife's health. Instead, they seem to be worried about the legalities involved.
So, they decide it is not "enough of an emergency" to perform the D & C.
They do, however, prescribe another, stronger, final dose of the medication for us to try again... at home.
So, we go home to try again. Another long day/night of early labor pains. Only to discover my wife UNCONSCIOUS in the bathroom. Having to pick my wife's cold, limp body off of that bathroom floor, not sure if I was about to lose her, is something I will NEVER forget.
She had to be rushed to the hospital.
By this point she had lost so much blood, and bodily fluid, her body gave out.
They were able to stabilize her, give her the fluids she needed, and we came back home yesterday afternoon. We were also able to confirm that our baby was no longer with her.
Now, not only do we have to live with the loss of our baby... we have to live with the nightmare of what we just experienced because of political and religious beliefs. MY WIFE'S HEALTH SHOULD HAVE COME FIRST. PERIOD!
God knows what mental and emotional damage this has done.
If you consider yourself a staunch "pro-lifer" ... 1) You've never been through what we just went through, and 2) You should take a long, hard look in the mirror and reevaluate your reasons for supporting such a cold, barbaric, ignorant point of view.
It's not that black & white, and it's never going to be.
If you think your "Pray To End Ab*rtion" sign in your yard is "Christian", I suggest you revisit the teachings of Jesus and try again. If you support these laws that make ab*rtion illegal, and result in people being put through what we just were, you should be ashamed of yourself. I've never been so angry, or heartbroken... and the devastation I'm feeling must pale in comparison to what my poor wife is feeling.

So, @UHC trying to scam people after they get routine procedure to call about “care” programs when all they want is to make sure you aren’t ill. Total scam. How dare you!

Dear President Biden,

You are amazing but not every American sees that because the message about all you’ve done to help Americans and all your strengths isn’t delivered strongly enough.

Here’s an idea…

Hire a team of Gen Z and let them do it. All day. Every day.

BREAKING: An unhinged conservative husband and wife interrupt an elementary school track-and-field meet, accuse a 9-year old girl with short hair of being a boy, and demand that the young girl produce her birth certificate in the middle of the race or be disqualified.

But it gets worse…

After the bigoted couple was asked to leave, the wife began accusing the young girl’s lesbian mothers of being “groomers,” “pedophiles,” and “genital mutilators” in front of everyone — causing the traumatized young girl to break down sobbing in tears and shaking.

They refused to leave, and eventually the police had to be called in.

One of the young girl’s mothers filed a report with the local police about the incident, declaring that, “This is absolutely a hate crime. It is a direct result of this right-wing propaganda that has become so rampant in our media.”

In response to the incident, the Central Okanagan School District says that “the persons who accosted the student and family were not from one of our Central Okanagan Public Schools. In response, the District has worked with other local schools to identify the persons and we are taking steps to formally ban them from any District property or events.“

Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that the bigoted couple MUST be arrested immediately and charged with a hate crime — and consider joining and investing in Tribel, a “woke” new bigotry-free Twitter competitor that is currently doing a round of equity crowdfunding and just blew past $1 million raised from 2,500 of its users. The money will be used to continue to grow Tribel into a kind, accepting Twitter competitor that’s the opposite of Musk’s MAGA Twitter.

BREAKING: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is hit with more bad news as Hayley Williams, the lead singer of the rock band Paramore, stops her live set during a concert to respond to DeSantis supporters who are “uncomfortable” that she’s speaking out against them, telling them, “I’ll be happy to tell you — I’m very fucking comfortable talking politics. If you vote for Ron DeSantis, you’re fucking dead to me. So is that comfortable enough for anyone?”

The best part is that, even though she describes herself as “straight,” she is still using her platform to be an ally of the LGBTQ+ community that is under constant threat from fascist Ron DeSantis.

We need A LOT more of this from EVERY artist who stands against DeSantis’ fascist agenda.

Please RT and ❤️ to thank Hailey Williams for calling Ron DeSantis and his followers out — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new Twitter competitor that is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKj4Hp
