Little or no evidence for this. Also, women already minimize their use of painkillers while pregnant and just suffer instead. This is some regressive, misogynistic bullshit.

NEW: Trump has targeted political foes — including Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook — for claiming more than one primary residence on their loan papers. But ProPublica found that at least three of the president’s Cabinet members have done the same thing.

The Justice Department's acting deputy chief was caught on a hidden camera saying that the government will "redact every Republican" from an Epstein client list and "leave all the liberal, Democratic people."

There are many reasons we don’t let drug warriors play judge, jury, and executioner — like killing innocent civilians. No doubt Hegseth would have cheered this shoot down of a suspected drug flight over Peru in 2001. Whoops, it turned out to be US missionary Veronica Bowers & infant daughter.
