    Sadly, this BBB made their tax breaks permanent. Sneaky bastard.

    I really don't doubt that different bits of information may have been made to disappear. That said, I do think someone ( I heard this a long time back ) makes archives of things that MIGHT have something happen to them, and that others that think or hope something has been vanished has in fact been preserved for just such an occasion. Fingers crossed.

    BREAKING: A federal judge deals a crushing defeat to Donald Trump by temporarily blocking his Medicaid cuts to Planned Parenthood — marking the first time that a judge has limited enforcement of the "big, beautiful bill."

    All hope is not yet lost...

    "We’re grateful that the court acted swiftly to block this unconstitutional law attacking Planned Parenthood providers and patients," stated the organization after the ruling was delivered.

    "Already, in states across the country, providers and health center staff have been forced to turn away patients who use Medicaid to get basic sexual and reproductive health care because President Trump and his backers in Congress passed a law to block them from going to Planned Parenthood. There are no other providers who can fill the gap if the ‘defunding’ of Planned Parenthood is allowed to stand," they added.

    U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani’s temporary block came just hours after Planned Parenthood sued over a section of Trump's bill that forces a one-year ban on Medicaid payments to any healthcare nonprofits that also provide abortions and who received over $800,000 in federal funding in 2023. Since federal law already prohibits federal funding for abortion, the section was clearly designed to target to Planned Parenthood.

    As is so often the case with the Republican Party, their brutal funding cuts come interwoven with far-right Christian Nationalist priorities baked right in. It's not enough for them to simply gut the American people's access to healthcare, they have to also force their religious beliefs down our throats.

    While Talwani's ruling will still permit the Trump administration to enforce the draconian provision in question on other providers, it could be a watershed moment. More judges need to take immediate action to block the numerous other blatantly unconstitutional measures littered throughout the "big, beautiful bill."

    Talwani's ruling will remain in place for two weeks, at which point the judge will rule on whether or not to grant a longer injunction following a hearing.

    I hope others do follow in her footsteps. I also hope that a much long in junction gets put in place.

    Yoo-hoo — you can't have it both ways here. No one much can afford to work for free. Not even the ones who could afford it would.

    There is something deeply wrong with anyone who genuinely wants to hurt other people — so badly that they would harm themselves. Just odd that their belief is so strong that they will hurt others while surviving themselves.

    Could it be that somewhere deep inside they realize we will take over at the right time and give them a whole lot of their life back — deserved or not.
