“When the 25-year-old returned three days later, still bleeding, doctors finally agreed to give her an injection to end the #pregnancy. It was too late. The #fertilizedegg growing on Thurman’s fallopian tube ruptured it, destroying part of her reproductive system.”
According to a complaint Thurman and the Center for #ReproductiveRights filed last week asking the #government to determine if it violated #federal law when staff failed to #treat her initially in Feb2023.
#CatsForHarrisWalz is a joyful speed train of a campaign — quite excellently designed to trounce the #weird Trumpers who want to “own” us; again with the slavery, MAGAs can’t give it up. They pathologically need us to snear and hate and throw an ammo barrage at their sane liberal neighbors in the #NameofTrump.
👀 US politics is an outlier bastion of climate denial with nearly one in four members of Congress dismissing the reality of climate change, even as alarm has grown among the American public over dangerous global heating.
A total of 123 elected representatives in the House of Representatives and 23 senators deny the existence of human-caused climate change.
2/ It also highlights examples of #denial from #representatives. “Of course the #climate is changing,” Sen. Ted #Cruz said in 2018. “The climate has been #changing from the dawn of time. The climate will change as long as we have a planet #earth.”
I didn’t think I could love Jimmy Carter more, but his #goals this week to hang on and vote for Kamala brought me to tears. Now THAT was an American president. I think it was a great message for wavering or discouraged Seniors. Now we swoop in and get handicapped access buses and Senior ride shares humming in every state.
Bizarro Donald doesn’t have an ounce of this man’s honor and dedication to our country.
Pre-cisely. And I think women need to recall how damned difficult and dangerous it was for suffragettes to get the vote. There were pamphlets being secretly passed in Victorian drawing rooms, leading to wives finding excuses to socialize apart some evenings. But don’t get me started, the Black community was also denied the vote for decade after decade of having no voice and no choice.
Use your vote is good advice because we don’t want the #weirdness.
@RickiTarr And may I add, as a resident of the Blue Privilege of Vermont, that it’s not okay to think your liberal pals are fired up and thus your vote is optional. Or worse. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard a leftie say that and I speak up when I can. People of bright Blue states, don’t assume your community is going to vote for you so that the election is guaranteed a win.
President #Biden said he was looking forward to getting “back on the #campaign trail” as he sought to dampen reports of his imminent exit from the presidential race. The president released a statement on Friday saying he would be out speaking to voters next week to “continue exposing the threat of Donald #Trump” and make the case for his own record in the White House.
