It took Katy’s sister just three months to become obsessed with QAnon. Now she’s abandoned her family and is living in Dallas waiting for JFK to return.

Katy’s sister, a trained nurse, left her husband and three kids, handed over $200,000 to cult leader Michael Brian Protzman, and says she’s not coming home.

“She left her children for this and doesn't even care," Katy Garner said. "She is missing birthdays and holidays for this. She truly believes this is all real and we are the crazy ones for trying to get her to come home. But she won’t.”

Misogyny on TikTok is rife. But while the app claims to be tackling it, users are finding that their reports are going ignored.

One user tried to report a comment that read: “this woman needs a beating."

She was told half an hour later that it didn’t violate guidelines.

Within seconds of searching, @VICEWorldNews found videos uncritically airing the views of Elliot Rodger, who killed 7 people and subscribed to incel ideology. One of the videos had over 120,000 views. TikTok has now taken them down.

NEW: Heroin is disappearing from drug markets across North America— a trend that experts say is wreaking havoc.
bit.ly/3mE9ORJ
In many former heroin strongholds in the U.S. and Canada, the heroin supply is being replaced with fentanyl, which is behind the majority of overdose deaths.
bit.ly/3mE9ORJ
"Most of the Eastern states, for the past several years, it's been very difficult to get much heroin at all and a lot of the times it will just be pure fentanyl," said Dr. Ryan Marino, a medical toxicologist.

In the weeks since Texas banned abortion as early as six weeks into pregnancy, Texan patients have fled to abortion clinics across the country. @carter_sherman spoke to providers from Arkansas to Washington about how they’re handling the influx.
bit.ly/3nT4Xvl
Since the Texas ban took effect, a Louisiana clinic has seen Texans grow from 20 to 60 percent of its patients. Texans are 20 percent of an Arkansas clinic’s patients—up from 1 percent. Clinics in Seattle, Las Vegas, and Portland have all seen more Texans.
bit.ly/3nT4Xvl
These providers all say the Texan patients they're seeing are only a fraction of those who want to come.

"We’re not hearing from them when they say, 'As it turns out, I couldn’t get care and now I’m being forced to carry a pregnancy against my will.’”

This is not good!

Trump’s decision to endorse QAnon-affiliated candidates because they support his lies about the 2020 election has further mainstreamed the dangerous movement within the Republican Party.

At least 45 people running for Congress have promoted QAnon theories, as well as eight gubernatorial candidates and many more legislative candidates.
