This is exactly what happened to me, except that my story ends with a near death experience and an emergency D&C after transfusion. Pregnant women in Texas are in danger. And I worry most about Black women who experience medical racism. http://www.propublica.org/article/pors…

Texas AG Arrests Midwives For Abortion. Do You Feel Safer Yet?Texas's maternal death rate is up 33 percent since abortion banned in state.“Exactly zero patients were harmed in the commission of these “crimes,” whereas at least three women have died as a direct result of the state’s abortion ban”

Holiday Inn in downtown Baltimore

The old Holiday Inn, now apartments, used to have a revolving restaurant on top. It’s now a gym.

Welcome to Vision on Lombard, a residential community nestled in the bustling city of Baltimore, Maryland, in the vibrant Baltimore Inner Harbor Area.

Trump’s SSA changes are built for failure

Here’s an article on the new restrictions on calls. Things you can see in the article:

They’re doing something rapidly that normally could take two years

Instructions for the staff aren’t ready and training hasn’t been done.

I really believe Trump/Musk want SSA to fail.

I’m fed up with Trump’s lies about Social Security

I worked for SSA for almost 38 years. The amount of fraud is very low. The staff is very dedicated to providing service to the public. We made many advancements over the years,

Trump, Msuk and the MAGA cult are lying. They are trying to destroy the reputation of SSA, Why/ My guess is to privatize it. If the service level is bad because of reduced staffing, they expect the public to be more receptive to privatization. They also want to lower costs to have money for tax breaks for billionaires.

Claims of massive fraud by Elon Musk and President Donald Trump are at odds with reams of audits and reports on the Social Security Administration’s spending.But some of the biggest examples of allegedly wasteful spending held up by Musk and DOGE so far have been overblown or inaccurate.

More media cowardice

I don’t understand why the media is so afraid of Trump. Most of his policies are not popular. His behavior will get worse if people don’t stand up to the bully.

GULF OF FEAR: This past week, when NASA astronauts returned to Earth, TV news networks avoided calling the body of water they splashed down in as the Gulf of Mexico. Instead, they performed linguistic gymnastics to stay out of Trump’s crosshairs.More in Status: http://www.status.news/p/gulf-of-me…
