Liz #Cheney tells NBC she believes the #SCOTUS"got it wrong" on the immunity decision.
"#Trump believes he will be immune for anything he does once he's in office. He will not respect the rulings of our courts. And people have to realize, our courts can't enforce their own rulings. So, if a president refuses to carry out his obligation to do so, then we are no longer a nation of laws. Donald Trump will ignore Congress."

The otherwise healthy 28-year-old medical assistant, who had her sights set on nursing school, should not have died, an official #Georgia state committee recently concluded.
Tasked w/examining #pregnancy-related #deaths to improve #MaternalHealth, the experts, including 10 doctors, deemed hers “#preventable” & said the #hospital’s delay in performing the critical procedure [#abortion] had a “large” impact on her #fatal outcome.

…just that summer, her state had made [#abortion] a #felony, w/few exceptions. Any #doctor who violated the new #Georgia #law could be prosecuted & face up to a decade in #prison.
#AmberThurman waited in #pain in a hospital bed, worried about what would happen to her 6-yr-old son, as doctors monitored her infection spreading, her blood pressure sinking & her organs beginning to fail.
It took 20 hrs for doctors to finally operate. By then, it was too late.
