I thought I might die from a miscarriage in a Texas ER. The doctors wouldn’t do a D&C — not because I didn’t need it, but because they were afraid of the law after Dobbs. I wrote about that experience last year. Now Trump has gutted EMTALA. More women will face this. That should terrify us all.

The USA has had a few cycles in which the rich acted like oligarchs & got out of hand. The slavocrats. The robber barons. Reasonable people, who just want to make an honest living, have to roll up our magazines & rap them across their snouts to behave.

They promised to root out waste and abuse and found none, and in the process wasted money and abused innocent people. They promised to deport 20 million people but are not getting anywhere near that, so they are desperately arresting anyone they can get their hands on whilst wearing face masks.
