It's been two years, and money has been pouring into abortion clinics, and pouring into CPCs.
But groups like us, providing the actual support for pregnant people? We are all going broke...

Hey just a heads up some of the new right are using the term national conservatism in place of national socialism ie Nazism as a dog whistle. If you see accounts or news outlets using national conservatism it’s highly likely it’s a Nazi account or outlet.

Discworld QOTD, from Pyramids "Dil was realising that there are few things that so shake belief as seeing, clearly and precisely, the object of that belief. Seeing, contrary to popular wisdom, isn’t believing. It’s where belief stops, because it isn’t needed any more."

Fixing a typo here: It's insulting to dedicated civil servants who are, contrary to what these jackasses think, underpaid. surveys and studies show that depending on the agency, the average federal employee is paid something like 27% less than a private sector counterpart

The press using the white house visitor logs to write up (apparently false) attacks on Biden after Biden published visitor logs and Trump didn't: good illustration of the reward for upstanding and ethical behavior in the current media environment.

Donald Trump desperately wants to distance himself from Project 2025, his side’s playbook for the next GOP administration.
Don’t let him. He owns this.
Here’s a reminder of how Project 2025 would destroy the wall of separation between church and state.

Every big media organization was so crossed-up by Trump winning in 2016 that they have been behaving and hiring as if Long Island-Coded Suburbo-Racist Sociopathy was on an unstoppable ascent worldwide, and interpreting everything backwards from there. It turns out most people actually hate it!

Among the many evils of "crisis pregnancy centers": they are not medical providers and so do not follow HIPAA or medical privacy ethics. Instead, they gleefully give away (to right-wing orgs) and sell (to data brokers) all information you give them. They should be illegal.
