Sunday, May 12, 2019

And another day of bills, sex strikes, and death threats comes to a close:

“There’s nothing permanent except change.” -- Heraclitus

Team Trump wants another foreign government's help for 2020. In 2016, the Trump campaign gladly accepted Russia’s help to defeat Hillary Clinton. And heading into the 2020 race, Rudy Giuliani is headed to Ukraine to push the country’s president to pursue an investigation into Joe Biden’s son. How isn’t this the biggest political story in America right now — Team Trump wants the help from another foreign government to dig up dirt on an opponent?

Joe Biden once said a fence was needed to stop “tons” of drugs from Mexico.

Presidential hopeful Biden looking for ‘middle ground’ climate policy. There is no “middle ground,” Joe. You’re blowing it.

Here's what "six weeks pregnant" actually means.

Bills in Georgia, Ohio, and Alabama show we’re in a watershed moment for the abortion debate.

Alabama lawmakers decided to table the vote on a proposed abortion ban after a dispute erupted in the state Senate when some Republicans removed exceptions for rape and incest from the bill. Republicans are horrible people.

Alyssa Milano calls for women to go on a sex strike to protest restrictive abortion laws.

History shows that sex strikes are a surprisingly effective strategy for political change.

Federal judge strikes down Kentucky abortion law.

Is Christian Homeschooling Breeding a New Kind of Domestic Terrorist? A look at the connection no one seems to be making between recent shootings.

A photo of 4 elementary school educators in Southern California smiling as they pose with a rope fashioned into a noose has led to their and the school principal's suspension. Fucking disgusting human beings.

Founder of Moms Demand responds to death threats from NRA: 'I'll never stop exposing your deadly agenda'. Give ‘em hell, Shannon Watts. They're afraid of you.

More than 180 countries -- not including the US -- agree to restrict global plastic waste trade.

A safe space. The nation’s first transitional housing shelter for transgender youths opens in SF, filling an urgent need.

Sick teachers in California have to pay for substitutes out of their own paychecks — even if they have cancer.

“Learning never exhausts the mind.” -- Leonardo da Vinci

Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.

Until next time, my friends. Good night.
