This was the most devastating week of my life. We had our 20 week ultrasound and discovered that our baby's brain had not developed, and that it would likely die before it was born and would only live a few hours if carried to term. We terminated the pregnancy.

One last thing: I've said it reflexively many times, but the reality of "trust women and their doctors" doesn't truly sink in until you are looking at the malformed brain of the child you conceived via fertility treatments and hear "now we need to talk about some legal questions"

One horrifying wrinkle in this world-shattering situation was that SB 9, the fetal heartbeat bill, was poised to pass on Thursday. If it had, we wouldn't have been able to have the procedure at all. While our daughter had no brain and a malformed spine, she had a heartbeat.

We intended to have the procedure at UofL hospital, but that was not possible, so we had it at EMW Women's Center. The people who work there are incredible, but the experience was harrowing. And the @LouClinicEscort group is made up of angels.

Andy Beshear's ability to take every progressive position and maintain a massively positive approval rating comes from his understanding that *most people* don't care about what drives political media and instead care about whether or not their public officials care about them.

Here is Gov. Andy Beshear on how to win back Trump voters to the Democratic Party. Out of all of the potential VP messaging… this is by FAR the best I’ve seen. 👏 The Walz “weirdo” thing is funny and rallies the base, but it’s not going to hit well with most swing voters.

My hospitals need to stay open and my healthcare workers need to be protected first. But it seems like the Republican proposal is more focused on the big corporations and the health of Wall Street than the healthcare of the people in rural America and Main Street.

@CMPiagentini We went to our 20 week appointment and learned our baby had no gray matter and was not viable. Our abortion provider faces targeted threats and still provided needed medical care to us. I think that's something to be celebrated.

In a race this close, EVERY door knocked, EVERY phone called, EVERY reminder text you sent, EVERYTHING you did made the difference. This is the type of effort it takes to win by the slimmest of margins in KY. Remember this, and work just as hard next year.

Somebody in the Kentucky media needs to get comment from our legislative leaders about whether or not they approve of the tactics used by their fellow Republican supermajority in Tennessee. I could absolutely see them throwing out several Louisville legislators next year.

Just today someone replied to this tweet from 2008 which is really something. George W Bush was President when this tweet was written.

I thought maybe if I added some differentiation to the colors in Louisville, we could see where Beshear was strong and weak, but he won big, everywhere.

An absolute disaster for Democrats in the KY Legislature. I did a quick count and it looks like a +8 pickup for the GOP. As Dems, we need to resign ourselves to where we are and start the work of deep organizing on people who believe things fundamentally different from us.

Since a few days ago when the thread about our daughter went kind of crazy, this has been the thing that I've been the most worried about. This story is so surreal that it almost feels fake to me, but our story is real and our pain is real.
