A judge put South Carolina's new law banning most abortions around six weeks of pregnancy on hold Friday until the state Supreme Court can review the measure, giving providers a temporary reprieve in a region that has enacted strict limits on the procedure.

Judge Clifton Newman's ruling that put the state's abortion law back at roughly 20 weeks came about 24 hours after Gov. Henry McMaster signed the bill into law without any notice, which had left dozens of people seeking abortions in limbo and created the potential for a legal abortion becoming illegal as a doctor performed it.

"It's extraordinarily difficult not only for the women themselves, but for their doctors — not just the doctors at Planned Parenthood — but hospitals all across the state who need to understand what to do in an emergency," said Vicki Ringer, a spokesperson for Planned Parenthood in South Carolina.

The White House strategy introduces a series of crucial steps to push back against this rising tide of hate. The strategy outlines nearly 200 concrete provisions across four pillars that seek to increase awareness of the threat, celebrate Jewish American heritage, improve safety and security for the Jewish community, reverse the normalization of antisemitism and build cross-community solidarity and collaborative action.

The strategy also contains key provisions that we have worked hard to ensure would be included in the plan. In addition to embracing the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's Working Definition of Antisemitism, it addresses antisemitism across the political spectrum. It encompasses diversity, equity and inclusion training for federal government personnel. It also takes measures aimed at improving hate crime reporting and promotes Jewish communal security through the nonprofit security grant program.

Given these disturbing trends and recent violent attacks, ADL repeatedly had urged the White House to take action. We proactively assisted in the development of the White House strategy, contributing more than 30 policy recommendations. We also organized grassroots advocates to urge Congress and the Biden administration to develop a unified national strategy to monitor and combat antisemitism.

Target is pulling some LGBTQ merchandise from stores that it rolled out for Pride Month after confrontations with customers.

“Since introducing this year’s collection, we’ve experienced threats impacting our team members’ sense of safety and well-being while at work,” Target said in a statement to USA TODAY. ”Given these volatile circumstances, we are making adjustments to our plans, including removing items that have been at the center of the most significant confrontational behavior.”

Items that have drawn negative attention include “tuck friendly” women’s swimsuits that allow trans women who have not had gender-affirming operations to conceal male genitals. Target did not say which items it was removing.

TVNL Comment: DO NOT SHOP AT TARGET.  THIS IS AN OUTRAGE.  WHO IS NEXT?
