If you want to lay claim to the "moral high ground" then develop a better relationship to the fucking truth.

As everyone writes about the Iowa abortion ban, please note the 'exception' for miscarriages is not real.

The only miscarrying women able to get care will be those fetus' heartbeat has stopped. The distinction is important: waiting for fetal demise is how women have gone septic

Well, shit. I guess SCOTUS decided to double down on crap decisions this week.

90% of Biden's student debt relief would go to Americans making less than $75,000 a year.

70% of the benefits of canceling all student debt would go to the bottom 80%.

70% of the $510 billion in PPP loans that were forgiven went to the top 20%.

Total hypocrisy!

Since Roe fell, these companies donated to elect state-level Republicans pushing abortion bans:

Wells Fargo $6.3M
Verizon $5.8M
Cigna $5.6M
AT&T $5.4M
Walmart $5.3M
Pfizer $4.8M
UnitedHealth $4.7M

Get the GOP out of our medical decisions, and corporations out of our elections.

Happy 130th birthday to my beloved, kind, brilliant grampa. Not long after he lost his brother to cancer--it broke his heart. Spent the next 5 yrs of his life ensuring Walt's dream come true. Largest civilian construction project in the history of the US--on time ,under budget.

RETWEET if you consider Rep. Adam Schiff an American hero.

Hundreds are still missing and feared dead after a boat carrying migrants sank in Greek waters last week.

Advocates say they’re frustrated the sunken migrant ship has garnered far less attention and resources than the Titan rescue efforts for 5 people. https://t.co/NYRoA3X3um

@cmclymer No term other than ‘normal’ will satisfy those who don’t recognize/respect the queer community.

Holy shit. Vanderbilt University Medical Center turned over the records of LGBTQ+ patients to the Tennessee Republican Attorney General.

If you're a woman or LGBTQ+, you are absolutely NOT safe going to VUMC for care.

Larry Moses, 68, was given a life sentence for first-degree murder in 1995. He's been freed after 30 years

Investigators found the state based his conviction on false testimony. Moses wasn’t even in town when the shooting happened. https://t.co/YOP789JBOi

"Today I went to Dunkin' Donuts and saw a clearly homeless guy sitting on the side of the road and picking up change.

Eventually I saw him stroll into Dunkin, as he was counting his change to buy something I began to get super annoying and talked to him over and over again even when he didn't really want to talk.

Since he had maybe $1 in change I bought him a coffee and bagel and asked him to sit down with me. He told me a lot about how people are usually very mean to him because he's homeless, how drugs turned him into the person he hated, he lost his mom to cancer, he never knew his dad and he just wants to be someone his mom would be proud of (along with another hours worth of conversation.)

This lovely mans name was Chris and Chris was one of the most honest & sincere people I've ever met. After realizing I really need to get back to class Chris asked me to wait so he can write something down for me.

Handing me a crumpled up receipt he apologized for having shaky hand writing, smiled, and left. I opened his note and this was it. 'I wanted to kill myself today, because of u I now do not. Thank u, beautiful person.' "

Apple Maps now displays the boundaries of tribal nations overtop of the U.S. states.

This is a really cool feature that conveys information most people haven't grown up seeing on maps.
