"I support Roe v Wade, which had three trimesters. The first time, is between a woman and a doctor. Second time is between a doctor and an extreme situation. A third time is between the doctor, I mean, between the women and the state." Stunning. The Democrats' best issue.

SCOTUS dismissed the latest abortion related case this term — reinstating a lower-court ruling that paused Idaho’s near-total abortion ban. Meaning FOR NOW — ER docs can perform pregnancy terminations to save a women’s health, not just their life.

Forever indebted to editors — both official and informal — who help me shape stories from the beginning. It’s true that talking extensively about a story before you write it is a form of procrastination but honestly it’s also essential. 😂❤️

There are more people serving a life sentence in prison today than there were people in prison at all in 1970. Now those prisoners are growing old. That is a problem. Prisons aren't set up to care for the elderly. https://t.co/Tod4EV8Gct

By one measure, about a third of all prisoners will be considered geriatric by 2030. Prison systems are grappling with how to care for their elderly prisoners — and how to pay for it.

.@blockclubchi origin story: We were laid off when the news site we worked for shuttered. We then founded a journalist-run, reader-supported nonprofit news site off a @Kickstarter. Journalist + community-owned news is our future. To journalists who want this future too: DM me
What a loss for the community. If the reporters who brought us @DCist were to revive it in some form, I’d certainly be willing to pay. The teams at @BlockClubCHI, @KyivIndependent, and many others have certainly made it happen after being shut down themselves.

This is a fascinating read with great reporting on what’s happened to Mariupol
What's Russia's 'reconstruction' of Mariupol really like? We spent months collecting testimonies and evidence of how Russia is rebuilding the city it invaded and destroyed. The reality is a far cry from the propaganda. Russia's new Potemkin village: https://t.co/cITpYnJN2M
