I will never in my life forget Trump saying in September 2020 of Roe v. Wade that ā€œthereā€™s nothing happening there.ā€ Republicans are using this strategy again by downplaying the threat of a national abortion ban, calling it ridiculous and crazy. My first for MSNBC:

Anti trans group Genspect is proposing a mass surveillance program under the prescription drug monitoring program aimed at tracking any time anyone is prescribed hormones, including birth control. This would treat hormones like opioids in terms of reporting. It's downright dystopian.
