The reviews for Greta Gerwig’s Barbie are in…and we can’t stop laughing at the guys mad that the movie is too “woke.”

@jackiefmogensen scavenged the bowels of Rotten Tomatoes for some truly golden one-star reviews of the film. Here’s a thread of some of our favorites. 🧵

(🧵) Since 1976, elections for Kentucky’s highest court have traditionally been, at least on paper, nonpartisan as mandated by the state Constitution.

Enter Republican Joseph Fischer. Image
For decades as a Republican legislator in Kentucky, Fischer has pushed bills to restrict abortion. He sponsored the state’s 2019 “trigger law” making the procedure a felony. which went into effect once the Supreme Court reversed Roe v. Wade.
He was also behind House Bill 91, which would change the state Constitution to read that it “does not secure or protect a right to abortion or funding of abortion”—an amendment voters will decide on Election Day.

🧵: You don’t have to wait until after the midterm elections to know what many of the GOP have in mind.

A little-noticed budget document, the Blueprint to Save America, released by the Republican Study Committee, details the group’s priorities. Let's get into it 👇
Some context: Nearly 75% of GOP House lawmakers are RSC members, so these priorities are shared by a majority of the GOP caucus. From cracking down on trans rights to expanding gun rights, here's an overview of the 122-page manifesto.
The RSC wants to end birthright citizenship because, they argue, undocumented immigrants take advantage of it.

Inside Massachusetts' family separation disaster bit.ly/3flmrAf
When child protective services removes a child against the will of their parents, state laws typically require a hearing within days to ensure that the right decision was made.

In Massachusetts, these court dates are called “72-hour hearings.” bit.ly/3fljn77
But Massachusetts systemically fails to comply with its own legal statute, delaying 72-hour hearings well beyond that.

In one county, there were 338 cases with such hearings last year—and only one happened within three business days. bit.ly/3fljn77

With Roe gone, where do we go from here?

Today, in collaboration with @RewireNewsGroup, we explore this fraught moment, the fight ahead, and the future of abortion. bit.ly/3yWoK42
@RewireNewsGroup First up, we've got @msjpauly on why progressive prosecutors won't save us in a post-Roe world bit.ly/3ANGdgt
@RewireNewsGroup @msjpauly Dozens of district attorneys across the country have vowed not to prosecute people who “seek, provide, or support” abortions.

But that promise is a hard sell to abortion providers weighing the risks of jail time. bit.ly/3Rwhl2K
