Over 100 Republican representatives have signed a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland asking the Department of Justice to investigate a pro-abortion group. The group, ‘Jane’s Revenge’ is planning a “Night of Rage” to coincide with an upcoming Supreme Court decision that impacts Roe v. Wade.

“Night of Rage: An Autonomous Call to Action Against Patriarchal Supremacy” is the group’s manifesto for those who are outraged by the states’ increasing abortion restrictions and potential reversal of Roe v. Wade.

The group has already taken credit for domestic terror attacks against pro-life pregnancy centers across the country. Breitbart News printed excerpts from the manifesto which is a call for pro-abortion activists and “cis males allies” to action:

This is an event that should inspire rage in millions of people who can get pregnant…and yet, the response thus far has been tepid.

We have agonized over this apparent absence of indignation. Why is it that we are so afraid to unleash hell upon those who are destroying us? Fear of state repression is valid, but this goes deeper than that.

Whatever form your fury takes, the first step is feeling it.

The next step is carrying that anger out into the world and expressing it physically.

Consider this your call to action.

On the night the final ruling is issued——a specific date we cannot yet predict, but we know is arriving imminently——we are asking for courageous hearts to come out after dark.

Whoever you are and wherever you are, we are asking for you to do what you can to make your anger known.

We have selected a time of 8 pm for actions nationwide to begin, but know that this is a general guideline. There may be other considerations involved in planning time and place. We do not claim to speak for every community or crew. We are simply calling out to you. And we hope you answer our cries.

In conclusion the manifesto says that any support, including from “cis males allies,” is welcome “but Do not police us. Do not tell us what is and isn’t appropriate.” And finally, the groups ends with a good old fashioned threat: “To those who work to oppress us: If abortion isn’t safe, you aren’t either. we are everywhere.”

Study finds harmful levels of ‘forever chemicals’ in popular bandage brands

A new consumer study tested several brands of bandages and found higher levels of fluorine in bandages from Band-Aid, CVS Health, Walmart, Rite Aid, Target and Curad, which contain harmful levels of “forever chemicals,” also known as PFAS.

The study by Mamavation and Environmental Health News revealed that out of 40 bandages from 18 different brands, 26 contained organic fluorine, an indicator of PFAS.

“Because bandages are placed upon open wounds, it’s troubling to learn that they may be also exposing children and adults to PFAS,” said Dr. Linda S. Birnbaum, the study’s co-author and the former director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences and National Toxicology Program.

News Nation reports that the study found the chemicals present in the adhesive part of the bandages. Mamavation said some brands likely used the PFAS in bandages “for their waterproof qualities.”

“It’s obvious from the data that PFAS are not needed for wound care, so it’s important that the industry remove their presence to protect the public from PFAS and opt instead for PFAS-free materials,” Birnbaum said.

According to the study, the chemicals are linked to several health effects, including “reduced immune system, vaccine response, developmental and learning problems for infants and children, certain cancers, lowered fertility, and endocrine disruption.”

While the exposure risk to PFAS through the skin isn’t clear, skin exposure “poses similar health risks” as eating or drinking food contaminated with PFAS, according to a previous study by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
