    Smith returned about two hours later, Waldorf recalled, and told her she had two options: She could remain under observation at the hospital, or she could get into her car and drive nearly four hours to Kansas, a state with no abortion ban, where doctors could induce her. The hospital would not authorize a transfer or arrange to send her in an ambulance, and it offered no explanation for why. https://www.propublica.org/article/arkansas-abortion-ban-miscarriage-care

    One of the Obama era's 4th of July shows headlined Barry Manilow. I did not think more cringe was possible. Um.... Milli Vanilli is playing at Trump's wrestling fest.

    (Some people never do listen to the lyrics) McBride’s Hit Song Is Not About The 4th Of July If you listen to the rest of the lyrics, you will quickly find out that the song is actually about a mother who her alcoholic husband is abusing. The narrator is just eight years old when she decides to get out of the way of her parents fighting, and heads to the county fair. There, she heard whispers from her neighbors about how her dad was a “dangerous man,” but no one did anything to help her or her...

    Is anyone surprised any more? JFC, this story is creepy. Rush, 49, is also accused of forging his educational and military credentials. He worked for the CIA for 17 years, and held a senior role in the agency’s Directorate of Science and Technology, which utilizes cutting-edge technology in intelligence investigations. Rush had a years-long professional relationship with the current Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Feinberg, the billionaire Trump backer who founded private equity behemoth Cerber...

    “Royal persons are both gods and beasts. They are persons but they are suprapersonal, carriers of a bloodline: at the most basic, they are breeding stock, collections of organs.” https://www.newyorker.com/news/letter-from-the-uk/what-the-royal-familys-links-to-slavery-mean-in-the-age-of-epstein https://archive.ph/y7s3V

    Both California and Indiana have introduced social media minimum age laws, citing Australia as an example. Good step forward, IMO. https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/article314732891.html

    Prince Andrew's Arrest Across the pond in Britain, accountability is a serious matter Interestingly, Andrew’s arrest is not concerning the 2011 sexual assault allegations that were brought against him by Virginia Giuffre — but it was recent stories in the British media about him passing on financial information to what the British press called “his pedo mate.” (Epstein) It’s astonishing how much accountability seems to be possible once you cross the Atlantic.

    How Legal Immigration Became a Deportation Trap Under Trump, the Homeland Security agency responsible for processing visas and green cards has become a site for easy arrests. Anna’s first thought was to explain that there was some mistake. “I wasn’t afraid,” she later told me. At the end of 2024, she and her family, including her four children, who are from a country in Central Africa, were granted refugee status in the U.S. The federal government had resettled them in Minnesota, a state which...
