Inside the ‘Diabolical’ Campaign to Ban Abortion Pills by Rebranding the Comstock Act Conservative groups have launched a PR campaign to frame the Comstock Act of 1873 as an anti-drug trafficking law. One expert compared it to the Nixon administration’s manufactured War on Drugs.

SBA, AUL, Live Action, and a guy who now works at Office of Legal Counsel (Josh Craddock) simply love comparing shield law clinicians to drug dealers

I definitely want to hear more deep thoughts from the guy who claimed Elon Musk's purchase of twitter would "extend the light of consciousness"

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

It’s true, they did threaten to sue me for this story, which we had planned to run that Friday and then the Dobbs decision dropped. We instead published the next day. Sorry to hear that another reporter is going through this

Indiana Attorney General's Office appeals religious freedom ruling on state abortion ban • Indiana Capital Chronicle Attorney General Todd Rokita will appeal a Marion County judge's ruling blocking Indiana's abortion ban for Hoosiers who argue their religious freedom requires access to an abortion.

Yes, Jewish people! “The case was filed three years ago on behalf of several anonymous plaintiffs and Hoosier Jews for Choice.”

....the FDA just reminded everyone it has a lot of power to restrict access to mifepristone, which it could conceivably wield after the midterms

Here's FDA filing in Louisiana case from late January.

A third mifepristone lawsuit, filed in Texas, seeks to revoke mifepristone's approval entirely, so can expect similar response from FDA there: pause or dimiss the case

But abortion pills are NOT safe because

Republican AGs of Missouri, Kansas, and Idaho want a lot more than unnecessary in-person appointments. asking:

*roll back approval from 10 weeks of pregnancy to 7
*three IRL appointments
*nurse practitioners can't prescribe
*no Rx to minors
*rescind 2019 generic approval

FDA says too late to sue

Philly Planned Parenthood centers face uncertain future after funding cuts The federal “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” signed into law last July, blocks Medicaid funding to facilities that perform abortions.

Another story about the nationwide funding crunch that has led a California affiliate to start offering botox

“There is no health care provider in Philadelphia that can absorb 20,000 patients,” she said. “The infrastructure does not exist.”

Opinion | The Supreme Court makes a common-sense decision on parental rights in California The government of California doesn’t supersede parental rights. Even at school.

WaPo has since changed the headline to this

likewise!

Some of their superfans got mad at this 2022 story but I said what I said.

Just want to note that this religious freedom victory did not come from the Satanic Temple, which has a 0% success rate in challenging abortion bans, including in Indiana

Tesla sued after Austin shooting suspect allegedly assaulted co-worker A 65-year-old woman says the automaker ignored warning signs before Ndiaga Diagne, the suspect in Sunday’s mass shooting, assaulted her. She sued Thursday.

the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year

the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter

Words, what do they mean

This is going to make the fedsoc crowd so mad (laudatory)

DOJ Removed Record of Multiple FBI Interviews with Underage Trump Accuser, Epstein Data Shows The FBI spoke at least four times with a woman who credibly accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a minor, Epstein files show. That document is no longer accessible on the DOJ website.

Take any claims from this DOJ with a massive grain of salt, but um, yikes

records from three additional interviews with a woman who accused Trump of sexual assault were "incorrectly coded as duplicative"? oh for sure, definitely passes the smell test

The DOJ Subpoenaed Patient Info From a Gender-Affirming Care Clinic. It Fought Back. A Washington judge quashed the Trump administration's attempt to subpoena patient information from the telehealth practice QueerDoc—but the fight may not be over.

Late last year I covered the case of QueerDoc, a small, telehealth gender-affirming care practice that received a subpoena from Trump's DOJ. The subpoena was blocked by a federal judge, but the DOJ appealed, and the 9th Circuit is hearing oral arguments today.

U.S. sub sinks Iranian warship off Sri Lanka, killing 87 and expanding war zone A U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington's pursuit of the Iranian navy.

A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflict—and 9000
miles from North America—makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

"a guy who believes in Trump's war also believes that being interviewed by Isaac Chotiner will go well for him" is in and of itself a data point against the war

even just the subhed slits this man's throat

AI shouldn’t be anywhere near a warzone because AI can’t be sentenced to death at a tribunal.
