#Maine #GovernorJanetMills fires back after #Trump's demand for 'full throated apology'

by Randy Billings, Mon, March 24, 2025

Mar. 24—"Maine Gov. Janet Mills on Monday brushed off President Donald #Trump's weekend demand that she issue a 'full throated apology' for publicly challenging him during a White House event last month.

"The governor responded to Trump's social media post while at a public event in Bangor. But it was not an apology.

"Mills contested Trump's claims that he wants to protect women through his executive order barring #TransgenderAthletes from women's sports, pointing out that women in the United States and around the world will be hurt by his moves to eliminate #ForeignAid, attack #SocialSecurity and #Medicaid, and impose #tariffs that will spark #TradeWars and drive up consumer prices.

"'If the current occupant of the White House wants to protect women and girls, he should start by protecting the women and teenage girls who are suffering #miscarriages and dying because they can't get basic, life-saving health care in states across this country,' Mills said, according to the Bangor Daily News. 'If he truly cares about women and girls and people of this country, let's see the economic plan. Let's see the health care plan. Let's see the education plan.'

"Mills, who was in Bangor celebrating the purchase of a mobile home park by its residents under a new state law, added that 'if he cares about women and girls, he should talk about the little girls and boys and infants in #Sudan and other countries who are dying right now because he has cut off their supply of food and life-saving medicines.'"

#JosseliBarnica is 1 of ≥2 #Texas women who…lost their lives after doctors delayed treating #miscarriages, which fall into a gray area under the state’s strict #abortion #laws that prohibit doctors from ending the #heartbeat of a #fetus.

Neither wanted an abortion, but that didn’t matter. Though proponents insist the laws protect both the life of the fetus & the person carrying it, in practice, #doctors have hesitated to provide care under threat of #prosecution, #prison & professional ruin.

#Outbreak of #Oropouche virus in #Brazil should be a ‘wake-up call’, say experts https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/article/2024/aug/02/outbreak-of-oropouche-virus-in-brazil-should-be-a-wake-up-call-say-experts

The deaths of two young women, #miscarriages and #birth defects in Brazil have been linked to Oropouche virus, a little-known disease spread by #midges and #mosquitoes.

""#aborted #fetuses are not #technically #lives and it's #harmful and not #medically #accurate to refer to them that way" and "#people who have early #miscarriages of wanted #pregnancies are still #allowed to grieve and consider them their #child" are two #statements that can and should #coexist"

""people who made the difficult #decision to have an #abortion #because it's right for them and their #situation are still allowed to grieve how things could have been if their #circumstances had been different" is another statement that should be added"
