1. This is a horrendous move:
Chemical abortion poses serious health risks to women and has a complication rate 4x higher than surgical abortion. The farther along a woman is in her pregnancy, the more likely she is to experience complications. Policymakers should strengthen, not weaken, restrictions. https://t.co/GAHbWs9Ex0

2. Nurses to perform abortions in Hawaii
Blinken’s denunciation was unfair and misleading. What he repudiated was a phantom report, one that was never written, whose critics shouted it down even before its authors were appointed, and had little to do with the report that actually emerged. The letters LGBTQ are not to be found in its pages; abortion is not discussed; natural law is not insisted upon; and the hierarchy that is proposed is mainly a prioritization of rights that are binding in all places and circumstances over those that are tailored more flexibly to circumstance and locale.
. . .
What the commission’s report recommends may be thought of as a strengthening of the human rights magisterium. With respect to the vertical dimension, while the report does not require that human rights be viewed as divinely bestowed, it does hold that they are “pre-political,” “inherent in human beings” and “inalienable,” the eponymous term derived from the U.S. Declaration of Independence. Human rights do not exist at the pleasure of governments or by virtue of positive law, but rather exist prior to law and institutions and serve as standards by which they may be judged.

Transwoman (46 y/o, identifies as a woman since 15 months) wants to enter a convent as a nun.
The convents won’t allow her, because according to the Catholic Church “one cannot change sex”.“I won’t give up, even if I have to got to the Vatican”https://t.co/rCqUhZuojb pic.twitter.com/ePBpKANOvl
