The whole segment is worth watching, this is another critical clip: Checkpoints are a nightmare. Palestinian women trying to get to hospital to give birth have been delayed at them so many times, there’s been dozens of roadside births as well as cases of maternal & infant deaths

John Oliver on West Bank: There’s 2 sets of law, Jewish settlers enjoy civilian law, due process, civil rights. Palestinians live under Israeli military law…when it comes to attacks by settlers on Palestinians, there’s a history of abetment by Israeli officials That’s apartheid

Disgusting

It’s disgusting. Settlers and settlements need to be abolished and criminalized. Apartheid playing out in from of our eyes for decades and there’s no Hamas here to blame.

Thank you John Oliver for daring to broadcast these horrors to the he American public!!

John Oliver’s entire program last night was amazing. Information that I knew: land grab, bulldozing Palestinian homes, farms and 1,000 year old Palestinian family olive groves for Israeli settlements, checkpoints as intimidation, all laid out logically as no MSM ever does. Ever!

The US has the highest maternal mortality of any developed country … and it’s about to get a lot worse. Why? Pregnant women are afraid to go to the hospital for care. They’re labouring at home alone because ICE will grab them as soon as they give birth. This is dystopian.

🔴Zimbabwe is facing a severe maternal mortality crisis, with a staggering 960 deaths per 100 000 live births. In January 2025 alone, about 300 infants and 54 women died during excrutiating childbirths. This is three times higher than the global average and almost double the Sub-Saharan Africa average. The main causes of maternal deaths in are pregnancy-induced hypertension, postpartum hemorrhage, puerperal sepsis, malaria, and obstructed labour. HIV and Aids-related conditions also contribute to a significant number of maternal deaths, accounting for 25% of all maternal mortality. One of the major challenges is the lack of access to skilled care during childbirth. Only 66% of births are assisted by a skilled provider, while 13% are assisted by traditional birth attendants or untrained relatives and friends. A staggering 3% of births are unassisted. To address this crisis, the Zimbabwean government and international partners have launched initiatives to revitalise Maternity Waiting Homes (MWHs). MWHs provide accommodation for high-risk pregnant women near health facilities, reducing maternal and neonatal mortality by increasing access to skilled care. Zimbabwe's health system, like everything else, has collapsed due to leadership, governance and policy failures.

Black women are nearly 4 times more likely to die while pregnant or soon after childbirth than white women. The role of racism in the 'appalling' disparity in maternal deaths may have been underestimated by the Government and NHS, MPs have warned.

The disturbing truth about the women of The View is that prioritizing marriage and motherhood is good enough for them, but is evil and "anti-feminist" for you. 4 of the 5 women on this panel are mothers. 4 of the 5 women on this panel have been or are currently married/committed to a man in a long term relationship. When Sara Haines tells you women have "come too far" to have an instinctual desire to have a baby, DO. NOT. LISTEN. TO. HER. When Whoopi Goldberg has the gaul to say "telling women to have as many children as they want to" is something that belongs "back in the past," DO. NOT. LISTEN. TO. HER.

MINNEAPOLIS MAYOR JACOB FREY: "I have heard countless people talk about Minneapolis, many of them who have never been here, as some form of post-apocalyptic hellscape, as a place that is dangerous." "We are a safe city. ICE is making it less so. We are a city of unity. But ICE is trying to divide us and tear us apart."

Birth control is NOT abortion. But Republicans are trying to classify it as such so they can lay the groundwork to BAN contraception altogether. Trump is invoking this lie to destroy $10 MILLION worth of contraceptives—& I'm not letting it fly under the radar.
