“We trust the women of Indiana to make decisions about their own lives, without requiring their government to tell them what to do with their bodies.”

— Vice President Kamala Harris in Indiana to meet with legislators about opposing the state’s proposed restrictive abortion bill

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

Ahead of Indiana's special session on abortion, I asked Indiana House Minority Leader Phil GiaQuinta to meet with me earlier this month. Any ban on abortion is a threat to the health and lives of women.

The leak didn’t erode the court’s legitimacy.

Bush v Gore did.
Mitch McConnell denying Obama's nominee and then stealing a seat did.
Lying under oath and then taking away our rights did.

Republicans will focus on the leak to deflect from the Roe ruling. But we see you.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Congress must pass legislation that codifies Roe v. Wade as the law of the land in this country NOW. And if there aren’t 60 votes in the Senate to do it, and there are not, we must end the filibuster to pass it with 50 votes.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

So the Republican Party supports forcing women to give birth against their will, but opposes providing childcare, paid leave or healthcare. Got it.

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

The Supreme Court officially rules that, according to the Constitution, guns have more rights than woman. #RoeVWade

“To make a fine film, you need three things: a great script, a great script, and a great script.”
-Alfred Hitchcock

Screenwriting write his unique when compared to the other written works but deserves just as much love and effort.

For any and all curious about the classic book Moby Dick and its impact on and connection with 19th Century America, check this article out.

[Virginia Quarterly Review @VQR]

MOBY DICK was published—not, initially, to great interest—on this day in 1851. “If nothing else, an abiding and central theme of Moby-Dick is that there are truths and they are hard to say,” writes Morgan Meis in her essay from our Summer 2011 issue.
