Fetal Viability and the Fate of Abortion Laws in U.S.

The concept of “fetal viability” is at the center of the U.S. Supreme Court case that could undercut or even eliminate the constitutional right to abortion.

The must-read deep dive into Michigan’s 2020 election, erroneous voter fraud claims

It’s worth taking a moment to read Politico’s latest deep dive into the state of Michigan’s Nov. 3, 2020 General Election controversy. In the end, one Republican lawyer’s decision to simply stick to the law as it is written cemented Michigan’s election outcome, upholding more than five million votes in a record-breaking year for the state’s voter turnout. A lot of the unproven claims about voter fraud came directly from the Michigan Republican Party and President Donald Trump himself.
