The fall of Roe has made pregnancy unsafe in America…
Even if you live in a blue state.

They want to control our bodies, and if we die because of it? That’s considered an acceptable loss.

Avoid period tracker apps. Don’t discuss your cycle or pregnancy online. Discretion could save you.

Im betting this is flat out fake and an excuse for increased violence. It may qualify for the thing that didn’t happen the most. I don’t know.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Homeland Security lies, because they'd have you believe they've been arresting cartel members, meanwhile if ICE ran into a group of cartel members, the first thing you'd hear is ICE screaming, the next sound is weapons hitting the floor, and the last thing you'd hear would be feet running away.

Not to mention Bush senior's tenure as CIA and as VP with increasing drugs coming in

if you really want to deep dive into the events that led up to 9/11, you have to set the Wayback machine. In 1953 the CIA deposed Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh in Iran and installed the Shah (see next post)

Old enough to remember when George W. Bush and John Ashcroft diverted FBI agents from counter-terrorism to the “drug war”. It contributed directly to 9/11 which led to Bush’s “war on terror”.

I’ll leave it to the historian as to whether this is history repeating or just rhyming.

Why would the cartels want to stop ICE and CBP activities that have been diverting resources away from drug interdiction?
