More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban. Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.”

A “Striking” Trend: After Texas Banned Abortion, More Women Nearly Bled to Death During Miscarriage
A new ProPublica data analysis adds to the mounting evidence that abortion bans have made the common experience of first-trimester miscarriage far more dangerous.

The U.S. doesn’t have a healthcare system. It has an exploit-sick-people-for-profit system. The only reason we don’t have universal healthcare in the U.S. is because our politicians are allowed to accept bribes in the form of donations from insurance and pharma lobbyists.

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs. A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which is about to get cut. If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

It’s a profound honor to receive the endorsement of Manhattan Democratic Party and its Leader Keith L.T. Wright, who has worked for decades to build a fairer, more just New York. We are uniting this party around a vision to make our city affordable for all. manhattandemocrats.org/2025/07/manh...

Congress Gives ICE More Money Than It Could Have Ever Imagined
It’s impossible to overstate how much power ICE just got from Trump’s budget.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I grew up in rural South Carolina with a single mom who worked multiple jobs. At times, we relied on Medicaid and SNAP—like so many others. My heart breaks for those now wondering if that help will still be there. Imagine having all that power and choosing to make people’s lives worse. Shameful.

Last night a bunch of Republicans in the House were saying how awful this bill was. Only took a couple hours, some merch, and a few words from Donald Trump, and they’re lining up to rip away health care from 17 MILLION people. I’m sadly not surprised — but I am still outraged.

Trump's 'Big Brutal Bill' will give ICE a larger operating budget than the entire U.S. Marine Corps. So this is basically a workaround for Trump to violate the Posse Comitatus Act, which bans the military from civilian law enforcement.
