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.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Mainstream media, "pro-democracy" media and Dems writ large vastly underestimate how much of their audience and base they have alienated over this. Total disconnect. Just look at a few of the comments on my debut independent live, viewed over 500K times (massive🙏 btw) www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrFb...

Imagine this happening on a daily basis in any country with a free press, remembering that this is not a defensive war but an unprovoked, unnecessary invasion

In the past 24 hours, Joe Biden secured a ceasefire deal in Lebanon and deal that brought three wrongfully detained Americans home in advance of Thanksgiving. That’s leadership.

We now have an answer on why Donald Trump picked the obscenely unqualified Pete Hegseth to run the United States Armed Forces: Hegseth has been working for some time to force a Constitutional Convention that would allow Trump to become a Forever King. If only America understood the danger it is in.

President Biden appointing 61 Black LIFETIME judges during his time in office is a serious flex. He understood the damn assignment.

I ask the people in power, with large platforms and public profiles: For the last few years, you have been saying what everyday Americans need to do. With Trump coming: Isn't it your time to stand up? Isn't it your time to show some heroism? Isn't it your time to do what you expected from others?

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa. I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:
