Three years ago, a corrupt Supreme Court seized our rights and overturned Roe v. Wade. The resulted is just what we predicted. Women dying because they can't get basic healthcare. Doctors afraid to treat patients. We will not stop fighting until abortion rights are restored.

Three years ago today, the Supreme Court destroyed Roe v. Wade. Ever since, MAGA extremists have criminalized reproductive care at every turn. My bill with @repfletcher.bsky.social protects every woman's right to cross state lines to obtain health care.

Police say: If citizens encounter a matter where it appears that someone is impersonating law enforcement, they should call 911, but police also state they don't know who's ICE. So how the hell are we supposed to know if it’s ICE or a kidnapping? Solution: call 911 every time you see "ICE". #ICE

The Bove allegations should be treated as something akin to Watergate, or Iran Contra. The administration was attempting to do something they knew was illegal (anticipating the courts saying as much), and then trying to COVER IT UP. Only here instead of it being run out of the WH or NSC, it’s DOJ
