Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. (Published Feb. 2025)

Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared.
ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

Trump's lackeys are rigging the game. They're blocking mail ballots, intimidating voters with armed agents, and seizing Social Security numbers. We won't be silenced. This November—we’ll flood the polls in record numbers! Vote every corrupt Republican out now. #BlueWaveIn40Days

Can’t believe our tax dollars are being used for political ads. The White House is now airing a taxpayer-funded ad during commercial breaks on Fox News. The 30-second spot has all the markings of a campaign ad, except the disclaimer at the bottom says: “Paid for by the U.S. Government.”

Okay, this is an incredibly, incredibly cool discovery. The brain stem is a different organ?
The researchers' breakthrough came from studying the earliest moments of embryonic
development, during a stage called gastrulation when the body first takes shape. Jokhai and Dundes discovered that the hindbrain follows a separate developmental path, running in parallel to - rather than branching off from — the pathway that creates the forebrain and midbrain.The researchers learned this from examining developing mouse embryos. They identified two different brain progenitor cells.
One, which expresses a gene called Otx2, is destined to become the forebrain and midbrain. The other, which expresses a gene called Gbx2, is committed to forming the hindbrain. They showed that these two cell populations never overlap; they are mutually exclusive from the earliest stages of development.The team then examined the DNA packaging, or chromatin, in these cells. Chromatin is a way cells determine which genes can be easily accessed and which are bundled away out of reach. What they found was striking: The anterior neural ectoderm (future forebrain and midbrain) and posterior neural ectoderm (future hindbrain) have fundamentally different chromatin configurations.
These differences essentially locked each progenitor cell into its respective fate, like travelers on parallel tracks that never cross.Finally, the researchers looked back over 550 million years of evolutionary time. They found the same two-origin brain pattern in chickens; zebrafish; and,
remarkably, in acorn worms, tiny creatures living on the ocean floor that share a distant common ancestor with humans. Jellyfish, which diverged from humans about 600 to 700 million years ago, have two nervous systems at different ends of their body.
"Our research suggests that evolution took two existing neural systems and pushed them together spatially," Loh said. "Having the brain as one organ would probably be more efficient, but we rely on this primordial way to make the brain as two separate pieces."

3 million Americans have lost their health care because of Republicans' refusal to extend enhanced ACA tax credits last year. The tax credits would have cost about $38 billion a year. Trump then launched a war on Iran, and Republicans fell in line behind it. That war has cost $67 billion.
