In November 2023, while an abortion provider in the South was on vacation, someone broke into their home, shattered the windows, and scribbled “Baby Killer” on a whiteboard. The case is still open. That same year, a man crashed his car into a new abortion clinic in Danville, Illinois, trying to start a fire. A few months after that, someone left a one-star Google review for a Florida clinic that read, “I have a bomb waiting to go off.” The clinic was evacuated and the FBI was called to investigate.

The van’s side door opened, revealing a shelf packed with diapers and a counter stacked with baby wipe packs. The van belongs to the Miami Diaper Bank.

Ron DeSantis signed less than an hour after they were sent to him. “Today, the Florida Legislature has passed the strongest legislation to combat illegal immigration of any state in the entire country,” DeSantis said.
