Mike Johnson melts down after House proxy vote failure exposes MAGA’s “pro-family” lie

But it’s not quite right to attribute this to hypocrisy. Johnson’s behavior is perfectly consistent with the renewed Republican enthusiasm for pushing women out of public life and back into the kitchen. As David Graham at the Atlantic wrote in a recent article on how Republicans are implementing Project 2025, the party under Trump has … Read more

“What the Lord established”: Elon Musk is camouflaging a Christian nationalist takeover

If Bondi bites, as legal experts Imani Gandy and Jessica Mason Pieklo explained at Rewire News, that opens the door for a broad Christian nationalist agenda outlined in Project 2025 to terrorize people for providing birth control, sex toys, or even sex education materials. The document argues that prosecutors can revive the Comstock Act, a … Read more

Elon Musk brought his 4-year-old to the Oval Office. It wasn’t just a photo op.

Pronatalism requires that people who are able to carry pregnancies — mostly women — be pregnant for large periods of time. These pregnancies can have a major impact on women’s participation in the workforce and economic mobility. “Part of the language around pronatalism is language about gender roles, and the expectations of pronatalism is very … Read more

Elon Musk’s war on Head Start childhood education exposes how “pro-natalists” are really anti-woman

When it comes down to brass tacks, “natalists” like Musk seem only interested in raising birth rates in the most inhumane way possible, by force. Musk loves to bleat lies about how birth control is dangerous, which is an unsubtle pretext to take it away, perhaps by likely Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy, chosen … Read more

“What was in Project 2025 that made it so widely hated across the political spectrum? A few things: firing civil servants, weaponizing the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, unleashing force onto protestors, and targeting political opponents, restricting abortion nationwide, ripping retirement and health care benefits from seniors, dismantling public education,” Sen. … Read more

Apps can be weaponized to criminalize those seeking abortion care. Under Trump, it could get worse

Researchers also bring attention to big tech’s business model and how it “facilitates mass surveillance of users seeking reproductive health care.” For example, people are frequently forced to consent to companies having permission to collecting and use their data, or they’re denied access to the platform. Following the overturn of Roe v. Wade with the … Read more

The anti-abortion movement weighs its next move: ‘We haven’t gone away’

In an interview, Hawkins rejected the idea that Trump is more popular than the anti-abortion cause. (Fifty-four percent of Americans identify as “pro-choice”, while 41% say they are “pro-life”, according to recent Gallup polling.) While Trump has objected to signing a national abortion ban, Hawkins wants him to commit to defunding Planned Parenthood. She also … Read more

Donald Trump is not waiting for RFK Jr. – he has already started his war on public health

Kennedy sometimes makes pro-choice noises in public, but his actions suggest he’s eager to pander to the religious right on this issue. He’s been meeting with anti-choice Republicans and appears amendable to their views. He’s signaled a willingness to go with the Project 2025 plan to rescind the FDA approval of the abortion pill.

Expanding the global gag rule?

Get ready for Trump’s executive order onslaught International abortion rights advocates worry that Trump will further extend the so-called global gag rule to organizations receiving any type of U.S. foreign assistance, including humanitarian aid, as the Heritage Foundation recommended in its Project 2025 blueprint for a second Trump term.

Out-of-state residents made up vast majority of Kansas abortions in 2023

Kansas providers performed a historic number of abortions in 2023 – and most of them were performed on out-of-state residents – in a sign of just how much the 2022 overturning of Roe v Wade has rewritten the map of abortion access and led women to flee their home states for the procedure. and Abortion … Read more
