For nearly two decades, #Missouri experienced a downward trend in the number of fetal and infant deaths, but in the past few years, the number of deaths ticked up again. So apparently, that state's forced pregnancy laws actually wind up killing the babies the GOP claims to be so concerned about.

#fema is not coming to help. #tornados #Missouri
#derekanderson, the loser appointed to dismantle #fema,needs to be tracked down by the #media. #joshhawley and the rest of the #magat delegation, will be of no help.

Call them anyway. Flood the Capitol Hill switchboard

Call your Missouri Governor. They asked—-nay prayed—-for this.

CNN · Violent tornado outbreak underway in South from storm that has killed at least 33By Eric Zerkel

#Bayer has lobbied successfully to get #GOP legislators in #DJT era to sponsor #GagAct bills in Midwestern states #Idaho, #Iowa, and #Missouri to legislatively silence victims of #Glysophosphate #herbicides aka #RoundUp.

Those consumers who contracted cancers after exposure would be prevented from publicly voicing concerns or filing #legal actions to address a #toxic poisoning.

The Lever · The Cancer Gag Act Of 2025The chemical maker behind Roundup weed killer is lobbying the government to unilaterally block cancer victims from suing them.

You know what's great about not yet being an expert in #naturalist topics?

I was sure I heard a gull yesterday. Merlin informed me it's a red-shouldered hawk. It is crazy to me how birds you think you know (from media,) you really don't know.

Don't get me started on the bald eagle...

Anyway our RS hawks are out doing their thing this morning. Beautiful!

A New Missouri Bill Would Let Residents Donate to Anti-Abortion Centers Instead of Paying Any Taxes

Four months after Missouri voted to legalize abortion, Republican lawmakers are proposing a 100% tax credit — capped at $50,000 per year — for taxpayers who donate to crisis pregnancy centers.
