Translation for Donald Trump: Just had a conversation with the President of Mexico who didn’t allow me to bully her, which left me confused about my charm…she pointed out that this is very bad…very bad for me if I do these tariffs…

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo on her conversation earlier with Donald Trump

NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all. Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

Good morning, Blue Sky. Being resilient is easier when you're surrounded by the right people. Build communities that make you smarter and tougher for the battles ahead. Never give up hope. Never stop fighting for what is right. And just. Whatever comes our way, we will face it together.

Hey y’all in Texas🤭🤣 FA meet FO 🤣🖕🏻 #SheShed

This incredible woman has more courage than any Republican member of Congress. Representative-Elect Sarah McBride responds to the pathetic transgender bathroom ban just announced by the coward Mike Johnson.

His first wife killed herself when she learned the extent of his philandering in just one year. He kept a diary to record all the encounters. Trump is trying to normalize misogyny and incompetence with each pick

BREAKING - this DOJ document shows Matt Gaetz’s payments to a slew of women — and even more payments to women from Joel Greenberg. Greenberg was Gaetz’s wingman. And pimp. And Greenberg is in prison for what he did. Will anything EVER happen to Gaetz?

JUST IN: The NAACP and other civic groups are seeking hundreds of thousands in attorneys fees from Matt Gaetz / MTG over legal claims a federal judge deemed frivolous. Earlier: www.politico.com/news/2024/03...

Wow, such brilliant political strategy! Take your small political capital earned in a narrow election victory to convince Senators to burn their reputations on a shady man apparently guilty of statutory rape. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/u...

I lament each loss and r@ge against the h@te that drives it. "Mourn the 💀and f1ght like hell for the living.". #TDOR

So, the Matt Gaetz sex trafficking scandal now involves the studios at Fox News? RELEASE. THE. FULL. REPORT.

Oopsie poopsie!

Linda McMahon as Secretary of Education makes sense given how her previous organization (WWE) took a keen interest in the welfare of young people.

Someone is not taking her election loss gracefully. 🤡

Remember, it was Dr. Oz who said during Covid that it was acceptable for 2-3% of American children to die. Trump now wants him in charge of Medicare. Seniors should be afraid — VERY afraid.

Remember when being a woman was a pre-existing medical condition? Insurance companies could actually deny coverage for pregnancies. MAGA Republicans have promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act and leave every person in the US with a pre existing condition vulnerable again. We will stop them!

Breaking: Trump has nominated Dr. Oz to head up <checks notes> <checks notes again> <throws notes in the trash> whatever.

Currently taking suggestions to "fancy up" mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving. Whatcha got?

Kamala Harris is currently only 159,798 votes behind Trump's 2020 total for the third most votes in any presidential election and will soon overtake him for that spot.

Just an incredible sentence to appear in a news story about the man who might be the next attorney general.

Mandate? Trump is now under 50% in the popular vote with his margin ranking 44th out of 51 elections since 1824. 4 Democrats won Senate seats in states Trump carried—compared to zero in 16 and 20. GOP poised for its smallest House majority since the U.S. had 50 states. - CNN’s Harry Enten reports

Literally FFFFFF his revisionist history,his state-sponsored m*rder of our loved ones and the ongoing harm to kids that he and his bros laugh about.

1.2 Millions Americans died because of his negligence, while he was sending our lifesaving supplies to Putin.

Joe Scarborough and Mika from Morning Joe, their ratings plummeting, made a pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago because they decided if you can't beat him, grovel for access and help normalize him AGAIN. STOP 👏 WATCHING👏 MORNING👏 JOE👏

Normalize asking "Did you vote?" "Who did you vote for?" as a means to determine how much of your precious time and energy you choose to invest with someone.

We know from history (including recent history) that the farther right our country moves, the less it prioritizes its most marginalized. Here is a list of a few Black owned bookstores you can consider supporting through your book buying in 2025 (and right now!)

#WorldPrematurityDay2024 is everyday in our home. Born at 27 weeks + 4 days, weighing 1lb9oz and 2lbs, our former micropreemies have always fought like hell to stay in this world with us. As their mom, I have no right to do any less. #LFG

The House Ethics Committee must release the GAETZ sex trafficking and rape report this week; and if they fail to, the Senate must demand its release and subpoena it. My hot take brings you up to speed as of today: youtu.be/d1d8lcPjc1o?...

I feel like the important context for RFK, Jr.’s brain worm has been lost: He claimed a worm ate his brain while in divorce court in order to prove that he was too MENTALLY DISABLED TO PAY CHILD SUPPORT. Trump wants to make this man the head of the largest health organization in the United States.

Naomi Beinart, 16: "We girls woke up to a country that would rather elect a man found liable for sexual abuse than a woman...Where the body I haven’t fully grown into may no longer be under my control. The boys, it seemed to me, just woke up on a Wednesday."
