Since Roe fell, advocates have rallied around telehealth abortion as a way to serve pregnant patients—especially in ban states. And in May, the fight to protect mailed abortion pills reached the Supreme Court. But telehealth is not a solution, this op-ed argues—it’s a bandaid.

Maybe hospitalizing a FOOTBALL player will get the attention of right wing Texans.
1/2 ICE agents violently tackled a father and his teenage son on their way to school—sending the 16-year-old, a U.S. citizen and star athlete, to the hospital with back and neck injuries. “I was just going to school,” he cried. “I’m underage!”

For those who don’t intimately understand how news works and why Bari Weiss’s unearned elevation to head of CBS News matters, I’d recommend watching this in entirety. Also, will forever point out irony of how an admitted DEI hire thinks her hire was meritorious while Black people’s aren’t.

Jamal Khashoggi was my friend and colleague who was killed and dismembered in 2018. Do you know how many times I’ve written against Saudi Arabia’ coverup over the last seven years? The sportswashing? The paying of influencers to visit Saudi Arabia? Saudi’s censorship of Hasan Minaj?
What Russia did What China did Do you know how many professional golfers are being paid by the Saudi? Do you know how many F1 racist there are in Saudi Arabia? Do you know how many world football Giants played in Saudi Arabia? Why are we singling out comedians?

Local news says there’s no indication that they were able to arrest anyone so this is simply intimidation and a show of force by these masked thugs.
What the hell is going on at McArthur Park in Los Angeles, CA! Looks like these militarized thugs are doing some kind of federal disappearing operation on street vendors in the park. This is only going to get worse with the new bloated ICE budget. #UnMaskICE
