Man got 6 months for poisoning his wife. Meanwhile, a doctor in Texas who performs an abortion gets up to 99 years and $100,000 in fines.

Fuck Greg Abbott and everyone who voted for him.

(Edited to correct that it’s the physicians facing the punishment, but Texas of course wants to impose the death penalty for women.)

He gets 6 months, yet a doctor performing an abortion could face 99 years in prison, $100K+ fines, and lose their livelihood as their medical license is revoked.

autotldr Bot , to Politics in Demonstrators vow to disrupt DNC protest in Chicago with or without a permit

This is the best summary I could come up with:


One protest with about two dozen demonstrators gathered outside Chicago Police District 18 on Sunday.

They described themselves as a coalition that included local Palestinian organizers as well as survivors of police torture and brutality.

These groups shared what they said was a joint struggle linked by billions in tax dollars used to marginalize their communities further, whether it's to fund what they call genocide in Gaza or mass incarcerations in the United States.

Each of these demonstrations, they say, is designed to highlight particular demands of the coalition as they build support and grow in numbers on the road to the convention in August.

His story of injustice serves as a source of motivation for what can happen when people mobilize.

They recently withdrew an application with the city for a permit as a response to the removal of the pro-Palestinian encampment at DePaul University.


The original article contains 310 words, the summary contains 146 words. Saved 53%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Your headline needs work. Why are the DNC protesting and who wants to disrupt that?
