I'm seeing conservatives, including one in the National Review, claim that even the Catholic Church supports treating ectopic pregnancies. Here's what they support: It's not ending an ectopic pregnancy. It's cutting out a woman's whole fallopian tube.

The Supreme Court is gone and this is what it is now and the sooner you accept that the better. Precedent and the minutiae of the arguments laid before it are not relevant, it's just a Play-Doh mold for cranking out a right-wing agenda that is far too unpopular to legislate.

So I've been thinking about what's wrong with this @AsteadWesley article about police politics in Minneapolis. nytimes.com/2020/09/26/us/…

Last night, the Seattle Police Department used cars and weaponry to carry out a violent protest in response to minuscule budget cuts. They harassed demonstrators, threw explosives, and used sirens and loudspeakers to terrorize an entire neighborhood. And we paid them to do it.

The white supremacist institution of policing that stole Breonna Taylor’s life from us must be abolished for the safety and well being of our people.

It's so funny how peaceful protests against police brutality end in police brutality.

The 2nd grade teacher's screen froze. The kids all told her that happened. No one could hear her. And then she disappeared and mass chaos has broken out.

Palm Beach County is wild.
