NEW: The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion.

In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose just 29%.

Aside from the blatant blasphemy from “cough..cough”, our “president”, I’m old enough to remember when I wasn’t thinking about who occupied the WH. Instead, it was like flying on a commercial jet, and you can’t see the pilot, though you know you’re in good hands.

No more.

For folks saying,"Ignore the Pope thing! He wants to offend you! Don't you get it!" I have this rule I follow. I say what I think. I don't get into second order head games in which I think I'm outwitting someone else by strategically not saying what I think. Perhaps Im simple. But that's how I roll.

That silly “it’s the worst time ever to be or raise a Real Man” post in defense of “boys simply MUST worship at the altar of the Tate brothers b/c feminism & the gays” has me thinking - not about that, obviously it’s nonsense. About what it would take to see a societal shift in masculinity.

Never forget that Nancy Wake:
- Has whakapapa to Tainui.
- Killed an SS sentry with HER BARE HANDS.
- Cycled 500 kilometres in 72 hours through occupied France to deliver codes to the resistance.
Very early #OnThisDay, 30 April 1944, New Zealander Nancy Wake parachutes into occupied France to be a courier for the Special Operations Executive.

Nick-named 'the white mouse' by the Gestapo, she is never captured.

She died in 2011.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

The only agenda they have is to America sicker, poorer, and homeless bro. We are ruled by despots. Is this what freedom means to you?
Here is a list of critical federal health programs for families that they want to cut.

Without these programs families will have fewer resources to care for loved ones, young and old. Those on the edge will fall into poverty.

Call your reps.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything,

Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT.

BREAKING — DOGE will descend upon Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) buildings tomorrow, an agency source tells me.

FDIC is responsible for insuring all commercial/personal US bank accounts for up to $250k and regulating banks. Scary in light of Trump’s manipulation of markets this week.

📢 Rumor has it the DOGE Traitor Tots were spotted at AmeriCorps.

First they gutted Peace Corps—now AmeriCorps is in their sights.

Because in Trump’s world, the best way to "cut waste" is to go after VOLUNTEERS strengthening communities at home and abroad 🙃.
