Texas' abortion ban has killed yet another woman. Here's exactly what the anti-abortion response will be:
They’ll claim doctors were legally allowed to “intervene” or “treat” Tierra Walker with "care." They won't say she could have had an abortion because they don’t believe in life-saving abortions

Ultra-processed foods are typically defined as industrially produced products that are often ready-to-eat, contain little in the way of whole foods, fibre and vitamins, and are typically high in saturated fat, sugar, salt and food additives. Continue reading...

Maybe it's time to make more noise about this? Last spring a thousand agents frantically redacted all mentions of Trump's name in the Epstein files. How does that square with what can and will be released?
FBI agents were told to 'flag' any Epstein records that mentioned Trump, Sen. Durbin says
President Donald Trump, bowing to days of pressure, asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to get grand jury testimony about Jeffrey Epstein unsealed.

A little more than four years ago, Zohran Mamdani went on a 15-day hunger strike in an effort to push politicians to provide debt relief for New York City cab drivers.
This act of resistance perfectly foreshadowed the socialist's current mayoral campaign.
