Make no mistake: Illinois is leading the nation in strengthening women’s health care. With the passage of HB 3637, we are expanding the ways we shield our providers from punishment for delivering life-saving health care. We are not going back.

Quite the shiner that Musk was sporting today; surely Trump could have lent him some make-up?

As much fun as the TACO memes are, don't forget what that stands for: TRUMP ALWAYS CHICKENS OUT. It would be a shame to ignore the chicken memes that are there for the taking. Here's a little Starter Kit you might need. ENJOY!

Apparently states’ rights stop the moment women board a plane with autonomy in their carry-on.

There are 7,591 words in the U.S. Constitution. Not one is "bible", "Jesus", "Judeo", "Christian" or "God". Separation of church and state guarantees ALL Americans the right to practice ANY religion. Or none. Which part of "religious freedom" is not as clear as a church bell?

Agree. But he did get his ass kicked in a way that will make him hesitate to take re-up the kind of publicly devastating role he did w/DOGE. And he is now broadly understood as a villain, so that when people see him coming they know it’s neither “genius” nor “innovation” are headed their way.

I just think there needs to be more attention paid to the uniquely creepy, mendacious, awfulness of Speaker Mike Johnson. Don’t underestimate the depth of his ambition and breadth of what he is willing to do to never return to Shreveport.

On the one hand, such mockery is well earned. On the other, it could very well drive him completely insane, and he still controls the nuclear button.

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

When that ct decision came down everyone thought it was absolutely terrible. (Bork came up with it.) But they've been teaching it in law school like it's legitimate, so ppl think it is. I say this to them: THE CT USED IT TO CONCLUDE WOMEN AREN'T PEOPLE. THAT'S INSANE en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origina...

This is phenomenal. Sea surface temperatures are >5C above average to the west of the UK and around Iceland. It's the strongest area of anomalous warmth on the planet at the moment. It's the warmest in recorded history for northwest Europe.

The U.S. has officially accepted a luxury jetliner from Qatar as a gift, and slated it to become a new Air Force One. Experts say that overhaul could take years and cost hundreds of millions.

If it was a “personal” and not a “presidential” meeting, why the presidential seal?
