Summary
Some say the Republican Party has gone nuts. In reality, they’ve simply reached the endpoint toward which they’ve been moving for 62 years: fascism. According to a new report - Medicare Advantage plans are frequently denying needed care. Connecticut offers refuge to red state women with a “Fugitive Woman Act.” The situation for girls and women in red states is surprisingly analogous to that of enslaved people escaping their tormentors in the South/ Also Ohio lawmaker says pregnancy from rape is an "opportunity" WHAT!? Media historian Joseph "Joe" Garner recalls the 30th anniversary of the L.A. riots over the beating of Rodney King & the rise of citizen journalists.
