Elizabeth Holmes is not the face of motherhood for incarcerated women. Jazmin Valentine wailed in agony for 6 hours in labor while staff and nurses LAUGHED at her. She had to resort to sliding her amniotic sac under her cell door to prove she was in labor.

Because this #adoptee did not know the circumstances of her birth until very recently, the US government has charged her with voting illegally. Intercountry adoptees are living on a knife’s edge in this cursed country of ours. apnews.com/article/syra...

🥚 Imagine finding out when you are in your 60s that 1) you’re adopted and 2) not born in the U.S. and 3) your parents never filed naturalization papers because you are arrested by ICE for VOTING and hauled into court in shackles. Just happened in Syracuse,NY: www.syracuse.com/news/2026/10...

U.S. adoption agencies generate over $2 billion in annual revenue. Safe Haven Baby Boxes reported $4.43 million in revenue and a $2.39 million surplus in 2024. Surviving surrender doesn't mean surviving adoption, and we won't be silent while our rights become the cost of doing business.🥚

What does it say about our society when we build padded boxes to receive infants but ignore the abuse, rape, incest, trafficking, coercion, and domestic violence behind hidden pregnancies? It says we’d rather provide a way to hide the pregnancy than confront the crimes that caused it. 🥚

Jesus Christ: after a recent ruling by the Eighth Circuit that allowed Act 372 to take effect, an Arkansas county has banned all children from checking out any books in the adult section, bringing home any DVDs, or using the self-checkout kiosk in its public libraries.

More recently in Craighead County — symbolically, at least, Ground Zero for the state’s attack on libraries, thanks to Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Jonesboro) — the library announced several changes to circulation as it relates to minors. In a Facebook post, the library listed a number of changes to library policies, including:

Minors are prohibited from using the self-checkout kiosks;
Children under 13 years old may only check out materials from the designated children’s collection, while minors age 13-17 can only check out from the children or teen sections;
Minors may not check out DVDs at all; and
Minors are prohibited from entering or purchasing anything from the Friends of the Library Bookstore.
