25 years after its approval by the FDA, access to mifepristone — the safe + effective medication used in most U.S. abortions as well as for miscarriage care — is under threat. The request for the FDA to review the abortion pill is fueled by junk-science.

The Ohio General Assembly has the first opportunity to draw new U.S. Congressional districts. If they fail to approve a map with bipartisan support by September 30, the responsibility fails to the Ohio Redistricting Commission. www.acluohio.org/redistricting/

Good news: The Ohio Supreme Court is allowing our case to move forward! Ohio law is clear: public records belong to the public. We are proud to serve as a watchdog for government transparency, and we will continue to hold Geauga County accountable. cleveland.com/metro/2025/0...

📣We couldn't agree more. This is a MANUFACTURED emergency, and it's not just about Washington, D.C. @govmikedewine.bsky.social is empowering this extraordinary abuse of power instead of keeping our troops at home where they’re needed.
Opinion: Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine should stay out of Washington DC's business.

CW: Sexual assault In multiple states, men have impersonated ICE agents to kidnap and assault women. This is one of many reasons we shouldn't have a masked, unaccountable secret police force roaming the streets. Our elected officials can and must act now: www.bluestatedefiance.org/no-secret-po...

In May Trump banned one of the longest-serving U.S. intelligence officers from attending his dog’s CIA graduation ceremony. “Though the story might seem trivial, it illustrates how powerfully this administration seeks retribution,” @shaneharris.bsky.social argues.

This bill would criminalize abortion (+other health care such as IVF & some contraception) brazenly violates the Reproductive Freedom Amendment. Just as we have gone to court to strike down other unconstitutional barriers, were it to pass, we will sue. www.wkyc.com/article...

I met with Ruth in El Salvador just over a month ago to discuss the abysmal human rights situation there. This news of her likely disappearance is exactly the kind of abuse she warned about. The Bukele regime must release her NOW.
#ElSalvador | URGENT 📣 Ruth is likely the victim of short-term enforced disappearance. As of now, neither her family nor her legal team has been able to confirm her whereabouts or the detention center where she is being held.

there really is no alternative to tearing up CBP and ICE root and branch
A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...
