The other funny part about this is that the hardcore MAGA people in the House and Senate are denouncing the aid package to Ukraine as treasonous while Lindsey is trying to give all the credit for it to Trump. pic.twitter.com/Xk8vKjXgbX

As we've been saying for about two years now, keep an eye on the secondary and tertiary impact of Dobbs (like preventing women from getting prompt and appropriate treatment for miscarriages).
Reading between the lines here, hospitals appear more afraid of criminal and civil charges for providing abortions to patients in a medical emergency than they are of federal penalties for turning those patients away. https://t.co/y9iUGY0GRj

In case you were wondering if the Republican establishment was planning on backing away from reproductive issues until after the election.
Adopting a pro-contraception strategy would be a significant unforced error for the GOP. Women are increasingly displeased with birth control, and there’s little evidence it decreases abortion rates. My latest for NR magazine: https://t.co/BnvnWGfqqs

Republicans also continue staking out other notable positions on health care.
Republicans in New Hampshire are moving to remove its requirement for children in child care to get the polio vaccine.

Every candidate's supporters will tell themselves the occasional lie,
but this is like Democrats in '38 telling themselves what a great
mountain climber FDR is.

I try not to rely too much on these crazies in the crowd. It's too easy
to cherry pick to make the other side look bad, but you'll notice it's
RSBN doing the cherry picking.

Disappointing...
John Oliver's piece, which reportedly took months to assemble, was superficial both-sides-ism more concerned with complaining skeptics are "killjoys" and facts are "boring as fuck" than in providing the kind of deep-dive factual analysis @LastWeekTonight is typically known for. https://t.co/jlQXoUfVpI
