I made a promise to the women of Illinois — as governor, I will ensure your medical decisions will be your own. Now, we continue fulfilling that promise. Public colleges will now provide contraception and medication abortion at on-campus pharmacies and student health centers.

He summed it up like few could. 🫡

This is the ad that triggered Trump operative Charlie Kirk. It would be a real shame if it went viral

.@SpeakerJohnson’s reelection campaign received money from Russia. This seems like a story deserving of more coverage now that this cretin is Speaker of the House and second in line to the presidency. Also explains why he refuses to bring Ukraine aid bill to the floor for a vote.

For the first time in a generation, Texans were more likely to die of gunshot wounds than car crashes in 2021. Experts worry a lack of research on the issue has hampered the search for solutions. bit.ly/3FB27ol

#FreshStrong #DemVoice1 “The fundamental question here is how bad -how corrupting is the billionaire influence at the Supreme Court” @SenWhitehouse Watch and Listen. Our democracy depends on it.

New: The Supreme Court Will Decide if Domestic Abuse Orders Can Bar People From Having Guns. Lives Could Be at Stake. propublica.org/article/us-vs-…

70 women are shot and killed by an intimate partner every month, and nearly 1 million women reported being shot or shot at by intimate partners. The Supreme Court is going to decide if those numbers are too low. Protect women, not guns. propublica.org/article/us-vs-…

Tyler Austin Harper saw the gun-violence epidemic—and his relationship to it as a gun owner—as an abstraction. Then, he writes, a mass shooting happened in the city where he works: ⁠theatln.tc/FzX4FMxW

Did you know that Rick Scott (R-FL) only won his Senate seat by 10,033 votes? And he had to spend $64 MILLION of his own wealth to do it. Now, I'm polling 1 point ahead of him in the polls. Please, will you donate now to help me maintain this narrow lead?

"The Right wants strict rules on everything. From what teachers can teach, to who can read to children... But when it comes to just f*cking filling out paperwork to get a gun, TOO FAR! But inconvenience is not the same thing as infringement." LEGEND. 🔥

The red line is when Republicans ended the national assault weapons ban.

After a British gunman killed 16 people in 1987, the country banned semiautomatic weapons like those he had used. It did the same with most handguns after a 1996 school shooting. It now has one of the lowest gun-related death rates in the developed world. They have mental health issues there too. In Australia, a 1996 massacre prompted mandatory gun buybacks The rate of mass shootings went from once every 18 months to only one in the 26 years since. They have mental health issues there too. Canada also tightened gun laws after a 1989 mass shooting. So did Germany in 2002, New Zealand in 2019 and Norway in 2021. They have mental health issues in all of those places too. There have been 389 school shootings in the United States since Columbine. Since Sandy Hook — mass shootings here have nearly tripled. 103 people have been killed and 281 people injured from school shootings since Parkland. And there have been well over 100 incidents of gunfire at K-12 schools since the Uvalde school shooting. This. Is. An. American. Problem. Yes, we have mental health issues here at home, but the difference… is the guns. There are more civilian owned guns in this country than there are civilians. It’s the guns.

Clarence Thomas ruled in favor of Citizens United. Harlan Crow and his family's political contributions then went up 862%. Then we later find out Thomas let Crow take him on lavish trips, buy his mom's house, and help fund his wife's conservative nonprofit. See how this works?

DeSantis fired a prosecutor today because he claims she allowed criminals to "escape the full consequences of their criminal conduct." And yet, he'll pardon Donald Trump. I'm sure that she's an elected African American woman has nothing to do with it.

Bail means restrictions on your rights, up to and including your actual liberty if you are jailed pending trial. Trump is on bail in 3 cases so his rights are subject to court restrictions like any other defendant.

Justice Thomas's $267,230 RV was financed at least in part by a wealthy friend in the health care industry. It was not reported in his financial disclosures. Is this behavior consistent with the ethical guidelines Chief Justice Roberts claims the Court abides by?

In acquiring church status, the Family Resource Council told the IRS it holds chapel services at its office, averaging 65+ people. But when we called to inquire about service times, a staffer responded, “We don’t have church service.” propublica.org/article/family…

This investigation combines two major ProPublica series: The Secret IRS Files' reporting on tax avoidance techniques of the ultrawealthy, and our Friends of the Court series, which looks at SCOTUS justices' relationships with billionaire donors. propublica.org/article/harlan…
