The specific allegations against Swalwell aside….this response reflects a very pervasive (but wrong) belief. Most sexual violence is relational and survivors keeping contact w/ their assailants is very common and not necessarily discrediting (esp when there’s a power imbalance)

Trapped and alone: Fear of ICE is deepening postpartum isolation for immigrant mothers Doctors say newly postpartum people need medical care, sleep and the ability to rely on friends and family for help. Immigration crackdowns have made that support impossible.

“I am afraid that one day they will get me, and I will leave the baby alone."

Immigrant moms are hiding from ICE: skipping postpartum visits, losing income because they're avoiding work, afraid to go buy food or diapers.

1/3 of maternal deaths happen in the postpartum year. Most are preventable.

Trump Has Detained the Parents of More Than 11,000 U.S. Citizen Kids A ProPublica analysis of new ICE data shows that Trump has detained parents of U.S. citizen children at about twice the rate that Biden did, and moms have been deported four times as often.

"Under Trump, more than half of the detained fathers of American citizen kids, and about three quarters of the mothers, had no criminal convictions in the United States except for traffic- or immigration-related offenses."

ICE has been deporting pregnant and postpartum immigrants. Now we know how many. The numbers offer the most detailed look at how many pregnant, postpartum and nursing people have been caught up in the immigration enforcement surge, despite federal policy discouraging the practice.

363 pregnant, postpartum and nursing immigrants were deported b/w Jan 2025 and Feb 16, DHS confirms.

16 miscarried in detention.

121 actively detained as of last month.

These are the first numbers we have on how many pregnant, postpartum and nursing people have been detained under Trump.

What ICE Detention Does to a Child Stunted growth. Nightmares. Bed-wetting. These are just a few of the symptoms of children held in immigration custody.

For @thecut.com, I reported on the harms ICE detention is causing on children’s physical and mental health.

“They are literally gambling with these children's lives and it's just a matter of time before there's a catastrophe,” one doctor said.

Detained pregnant people are entitled to full medical care. They say it’s not happening. Through interviews and a new report, a clearer picture of what is happening with prenatal care in immigration facilities is emerging as allegations of inadequate care are piling up.

Inadequate treatment for a missed carriage.

No follow-up for unexplained bleeding.

Diagnoses of preeclampsia and gestational diabetes — life threatening conditions — upon release.

Read what pregnant immigrants say happens to them when they are detained.

The snip shift: March Madness used to drive vasectomies. Now abortion bans do. Once marketed as an excuse to watch basketball, vasectomies are now a way men say they can support their partners after the fall of Roe v. Wade.

“The reason I got a vasectomy is to make sure my girlfriend could be cared for if she wasn’t able to have the same options,” he said. “And me doing my part to help our relationship and our future, that is masculine: helping your partner.”

Abortion bans reshaped reproductive health, and now the rental market New research found that abortion bans resulted in lower rental prices and higher vacancies.

Abortion bans appear to result in lower rents and higher vacancy rates, showing that people are choosing not to live in states w/ restrictive laws

"Policies around abortion matter to some people — to enough people to move the needle significantly," one economist said

Across ERs, Tylenol orders for pregnant people dropped after health officials linked drug to autism Immediately after U.S. health officials linked Tylenol to autism, the drug's use in pregnant women visiting ERs dropped, new study shows.

Tylenol is really one of the only good options for pain/fever relief when you're pregnant — and doctors have said repeatedly that leaving those untreated in pregnancy is actually dangerous!

Trump didn’t mention abortion in the State of the Union Abortion opponents have been more vocal in their frustrations with the Trump administration, which many see as having done little to capitalize on the fall of Roe vs. Wade.

In the longest state of the union on record, Trump didn't talk about abortion even once.

It underscores a growing rift between the admin and a coalition Trump has counted on in the past. Some anti-abortion groups are growing impatient w/ what they see as minimal action

How the imagery of White women victims is being used to stoke anti-immigrant fear The death of Laken Riley, who Trump called “an American daughter,” is at the center of Republicans' hard-line immigration pitch to voters.

"Their deaths, linked to immigrant men, became flash points in Republicans’ push for hard-line immigration policies. Led by Donald Trump, the party is using these deaths to call for policies like mass arrests, detention camps and militarized deportations"

From 2 years ago, feels apt tonight, too!

Trump plans could lower IVF costs for some — but fall short of his campaign promise The administration said employers will be able to offer standalone insurance for fertility treatments and that one major drugmaker will offer discounts for IVF drugs.

Reminder that Trump said he's make IVF free for all Americans — and Trump RX, which he touted tonight, is the only real policy initiative he's advanced.

Prescription drugs are a major IVF expense, but they are nowhere near hte main source of costs for fertility patients

Pregnant patients in Minnesota have postponed abortion appointments to avoid ICE Planned Parenthood’s no-show rate has gone up almost 10 percent since the federal government’s Minnesota operation began.

Even if ICE is leaving Minnesota, the consequences — including delayed abortions, missed cancer visits, fewer people getting birth control — will be felt for a long time
