🚨 Y’all, we are waaaaay behind in this year’s fundraiser for the Louisiana Abortion Fund. We need to raise $50,000 by 5/31 or we’ll lose matching funds ( and right now we have less than 3k! 😱) Can you help?

this breach is looking really bad. widespread impact over a massive number of healthcare systems, and plenty of trickle-down to impact those even not directly related. will be interesting to see if it truly is a nation-state actor. cnbc.com/2024/02/24/unitedhe…

I read takes like this, written by men who fancy themselves clever because their ignorance creates small worlds for them to lord over, who presume to assume the mantle of the thing they call ‘Western culture’ with no understanding of the humility and effort it takes (1/N)

It’s interesting that there appear to be Republicans on the floor right now breaking rules by video recording on the house floor while in session. #justsaying

Nashville's @beckfortn says when former Rep. Jeremy Durham was reported -- by the Attorney General -- to have sexually assaulted or harassed 23+ women, Republicans said they couldn't expel him because he hadn't had due process.

This isn’t happening in a vacuum, at all. Tennessee Republicans have been heavily suppressing tremors of dissent and protest. This from last year. boltsmag.org/pamela-moses/

“The Goal Was to Scare People, but It Could Boomerang.”

Pamela Moses, a Memphis activist sentenced to six years in prison for registering to vote, talks about the prosecution and suppression of Black voters in Tennessee.

For those keeping score at home... Things that WILL NOT get you expelled from the TN state legislature: - child molestation - domestic violence - federal investigation - peeing on your colleague's chair Things that will: - fighting to protect kids from gun violence

Wow: Tennessee state Rep. Justin Jones, one of the Dems that the GOP is trying to expel from state legislature to protesting gun violence, calls out his colleagues on the floor ‘For years, one of your colleagues, an admitted child molester, sat in this chamber – no expulsion’

Actual video and actual quote (I paraphrased) coming so you can see for yourself. But every living, breathing TN woman and girl were told they didn’t matter as much as a fetus. – at Nashville, TN

Tonight on the floor was difficult. I’ll talk more about that later, but a man on the floor actually said, out loud, to the body, that they would do everything they could to protect the fetus. As an afterward, he said they would do what they could for pregnant women-no promises.

I obtained surveillance footage of the self-driving Tesla that abruptly stopped on the Bay Bridge, resulting in an eight-vehicle crash that injured 9 people including a 2 yr old child just hours after Musk announced the self-driving feature. Full story: theintercept.com/2023/01/10/…

Wonder what makes an extremist right-wing politician? It’s complicated; they’re shaped by many things. They’ve always been here, come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and will probably always exist. Fascinating read about Marjorie Taylor-Green. theatlantic.com/magazine/arc…
