Indiana AG Todd Rokita alleges inflated COVID-19 stats in new release • Indiana Capital Chronicle
At a South Bend political rally on Saturday, Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita accused public health entities across the state of submitting “faulty” and “unsound” data when it came to COVID-19’s death toll and positivity rate. “This report … aims to educate the public about the state’s fundamental failures at the time to meet the challenges of a global pandemic with the best possible…

Rokita - She Is
“She Is” is a recently released song by Chris Rokita, a songwriter, arranger, producer, recording engineer, sound designer, singer, and visual artist from Frankenmuth, Michigan. The song talks about man’s struggle to understand woman’s nature. “She Is” serves as a perfect follow-up to Cranial Euphoria, Spring Break, and Hyperbolic Overload, three singles Rokita released earlier this year. Still,…

Indiana attorney general sues provider over violation of consumer protection, privacy laws
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita is suing a northwest Indiana medical office over a ransomware event that put personal and protected health information at risk. The lawsuit alleges the provider was aware of security concerns before the data breach. The lawsuit filed last week against CarePointe — an ear, nose, throat, sinus and hearing provider — claims it was aware of security risks prior to…

📖 "Przez większość życia uważałem Ślązaków za jaskiniowców z kilofem i roladą. Swoją śląskość wypierałem. W podstawówce pani Chmiel grała nam na akordeonie Rotę, a ja nie miałem pojęcia, że ów plujący w twarz Niemiec z pieśni był moim przodkiem. O swoich korzeniach wiedziałem mało. Nie wierzyłem, że na Śląsku przed wojną odbyła się jakakolwiek historia. Moi antenaci byli jakby z innej planety, nosili jakieś niemożliwe imiona: Urban, Reinhold, Lieselotte. Później była ta nazistowska burdelmama, major z Kaukazu, pradziadek na „delegacjach” w Polsce we wrześniu 1939, nagrobek z zeskrobanym nazwiskiem przy kompoście. Coś pękało. Pojąłem, że za płotem wydarzyła się alternatywna historia, dzieje odwrócone na lewą stronę. Postanowiłem pokręcić się po okolicy, spróbować złożyć to w całość. I czego tam nie znalazłem: blisko milion ludzi deklarujących „nieistniejącą” narodowość, katastrofę ekologiczną nieznanych rozmiarów, opowieści o polskiej kolonii, o separatyzmach i ludzi kibicujących nie tej reprezentacji co trzeba. Oto nasza silezjogonia." #ZbigniewRokita #Rokita #Kajś #OpowieśćoGórnymŚląsku #KajśOpowieśćoGórnymŚląsku #WydawnictwoCzarne #książka #ksiazka #book #powieść #novel ____________________𝕿𝖆𝖌𝖎_____________________ #lato #summer #latowmieście #summerinthecity #Katowice #Śląsk #Polska #UE 🇵🇱🇪🇺 #Silesia #Poland #PL #EU 🇵🇱🇪🇺 📸©️ @michal.zdziejowski #instagramphotographer (w: Dworzec Katowice) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf8l2nEr_YM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Relacja z kwietniowego spotkania w Sosnowcu
Na spotkania Klubu z Kawą nad Książką zazwyczaj staramy się wybierać pozycje nie tylko ciekawe, ale też poruszające ważną tematykę i prezentujące odpowiednio wysoki poziom rzemiosła literackiego. Stanem preferowanym jest gdy książka spełnia równocześnie te wszystkie kryteria, chociaż nawet jeśli finalnie czegoś jej brakuje może być przyczynkiem do ciekawej dyskusji. Modelową ilustrację takiej sytuacji dała "Ziemia jałowa" Magdaleny Okraski będąca tematem naszego kwietniowego spotkania.
Podczas dyskusji skupiliśmy się na porównywaniu "Ziemi jałowej: opowieść o Zagłębiu" z poruszającym podobną tematykę "Kajś" Zbigniewa Rokity omawianym przez nas na wcześniejszym spotkaniu. Książki te łączy chęć pokazania danego regionu wraz z jego specyfiką i uwarunkowaniami, przedstawienie sytuacji z perspektywy zwykłych ludzi oraz zwrócenie uwagi na rzadziej poruszane kwestie. Główną różnicę stanowi powód dla którego przy wszystkich swoich zaletach "Ziemia jałowa" nie do końca spełniła nasze oczekiwania - skala oraz założenia samej opowieści. Mimo tych mankamentów, "Ziemia jałowa: opowieść o Zagłębiu" to książka po którą warto sięgnąć, szczególnie jeśli jest się mieszkańcem tego rejonu lub chce się dowiedzieć czegoś o mniej znanym obliczu tej krainy. Wnioskiem końcowym było stwierdzenie, że pozycji poświęconych Zagłębiu Dąbrowskiemu nie ma zbyt wiele, więc każda jest mile widziana, a ponadto może stanowić implus do pojawienia się kolejnych i szerszego zainteresowania odbiorców tematem.

Jessica Valenti at Abortion, Every Day:
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita says that abortion reports aren’t medical records, and that they should be available to the public in the same way that death certificates are. While Rokita pushes for public reports, New Hampshire lawmakers are fighting over a Republican bill to collect and publish abortion data, and U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville has introduced a bill that would require the Department of Veterans Affairs to collect and provide data on the abortions performed at its facilities. Just last week, Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly vetoed legislation that would have required abortion providers to ask patients invasive and detailed questions about why they were getting abortions, and provide those answers in a report to the state.   All of these moves are part of a broader strategy that weaponizes abortion data to stigmatize patients and to prosecute providers. And while most states have some kind of abortion reporting law, legislators are increasingly trying to expand the scope of the data, and use it to dismantle women’s privacy.
Rokita’s ‘advisory opinion’, for example, argues that abortion data collected by the state isn’t private medical information and that in order to prosecute abortion providers, he needs detailed reports to be public. In the past, the state has issued reports on each individual abortion. But as a result of Indiana’s ban, there are only a handful of abortions being performed in the state. As such, the Department of Health decided to release aggregate reports to protect patient confidentiality, noting that individual reports could be “reverse engineered to identify patients—especially in smaller communities.” Rokita—best known for his harassment campaign against Dr. Caitlin Bernard, the abortion provider who treated a 10-year-old rape victim—is furious over the change. He says the only way he can arrest and prosecute people is if he gets tips from third parties, presumably anti-abortion groups that scour the abortion reports for alleged wrongdoing. He wants the state to either restore public individual reports, or to allow his office to go after abortion providers without a complaint by a third party. (Meaning, he could pursue investigations against doctors and hospitals without cause.)
Most troubling, though, is his insistence that women’s private abortion information isn’t private at all. Even though individual reports could be used to identify patients, Rokita claims that the terminated pregnancy reports [TPRs] aren’t medical records, and that they “do not belong to the patient.” [...] As I flagged last month, abortion reporting is becoming more and more important to anti-choice lawmakers and groups. Project 2025 includes an entire section on abortion reporting, for example, and major anti-abortion organizations like the Charlotte Lozier Institute and Americans United for Life want to mandate more detailed reports.
[...]  As is the case with funding for crisis pregnancy centers and legislation about ‘prenatal counseling’ or ‘perinatal hospice care’, Republicans are advancing abortion reporting mandates under the guise of protecting women. And in a moment when voters are furious over abortion bans, anti-choice lawmakers and organizations very much need Americans to believe that lie. We have to make clear that state GOPs aren’t just banning abortion, but enacting any and every punitive policy that they can—especially those that strip us of our medical privacy. After all, it was less than a year ago that 19 Republican Attorneys General wanted the ability to investigate the out-of-state medical records of abortion patients. Did we really think they were going to stop there?
@jessicavalenti writes a solid column in her Abortion, Every Day blog that the GOP's agenda to erode patient privacy of those seeking abortions is a dangerous one.

Todd Rokita is still investigating Caitlin Bernard for providing an abortion to a 10 year old. Let that sink in. He wants to punish a doctor for providing an abortion to a child. Now, Republicans and other antiabortioners have switched to insisting the child could have gotten the abortion in her home state. They realized calling a 10 year old a liar and then saying she should have been forced to give birth doesn't resonate well.
But here they are investigating the doctor who performed the abortion. Doctors were upfront with forced birthers that the exceptions were vague. They were ignored. Doctors were upfront with forced birthers that fear of prosecution would make doctors afraid to perform abortions in cases where legal guidance was vague. They were ignored.
Now a doctor who undoubtedly saved a child from disfiguration or death is being investigated. No matter what forced birthers say, they are not sending the message that 10 year olds should be allowed abortions.

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita (R) announced that he and six other state attorneys general have sent a letter advising Target that their Pride display could violate state laws. The letter accuses Target of violating laws that “protect children from harmful content meant to sexualize them and prohibit gender transitions of children.”
The at-times incomprehensible letter accuses Target of selling Pride gear for kids, promoting products from a brand that sells “Satanist-Inspired” merchandise, and helping GLSEN, an LGBTQ+ youth advocacy group that the attorneys general say has a “purpose of undermining parents’ constitutional and statutory rights by supporting ‘secret gender transitions for kids.'”
In May, it became something of a trend for conservative influencers to record themselves going into Target to express disgust at the store’s LGBTQ+ Pride displays, sometimes vandalizing them or harassing Target employees.
The attorneys’ general letter appears to draw inspiration from those videos, citing some of the products that conservatives were outraged by, including a tucking swimsuit sold in adult sizes, which some conservatives thought would turn kids transgender. The letter also complains about “LGBT-themed onesies, bibs, and overalls,” all products the conservative influencers expressed distaste for. The letter also mentions an adult T-shirt with a drag queen on it.
The letter says that Target carried products with “anti-Christian designs such as pentagrams, horned skulls, and other Satanic products,” citing a Reuters article. The Reuters article, though, doesn’t back the Republicans’ claims and actually says that Target was selling products from the brand Abprallen, which has associated in the past with British designer Erik Carnell, who has sold the above-mentioned Satanic merchandise through his own channels.
While the connection between Target and Carnell doesn’t seem strong enough to include in a letter sent for legal reasons, the idea that Target is selling Satanic products was part of an internet rumor earlier this year. AI-generated images of T-shirts with inverted pentagrams and goat heads and of a store display with a red, goat-headed mannequin were shared on social media last month and caused outrage in conservative Facebook groups, even though the images were fake and the products weren’t really being sold by Target.
The letter states that Target “has no duty to fill stores with objectionable goods, let alone endorse or feature them in attention-grabbing displays at the behest of radical activists.” It says that Target has a duty to its shareholders that it violated because some conservatives said they were boycotting Target on social media and therefore the Pride displays “negatively affected Target’s stock price.”
“It is likely more profitable to sell the type of Pride that enshrines the love of the United States,” the letter states. “Target’s Pride Campaign alienates whereas Pride in our country unites.”
It’s unclear what the legal argument is in the letter since businesses make unprofitable decisions all the time without facing prosecution. The letter says that “as the chief legal officers of our States, we are charged with enforcing state laws protecting children and safeguarding parental rights” including laws that “penalize the ‘sale or distribution… of obscene matter.'” But it doesn’t threaten to prosecute Target or its executives for selling “obscene” rainbow onesies.
Furthermore, it cites Indiana’s recently passed ban on gender-affirming health care for transgender youth, but Target wasn’t selling hormones or puberty blockers in its Pride displays. The gender-affirming healthcare ban doesn’t ban people under the age of 18 from identifying as LGBTQ+.
The letter is signed by Rokita and the attorneys general of Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, and South Carolina. They are all Republicans.
“Transanity doesn’t sell,” Rokita said in announcing the letter. “Let’s all unite around pride in America instead of falling into the trap of dividing along lines of identity politics.”

I would hate it if people wasted Indiana's numbnuts AG Todd Rokita's time by spamming in.gov/attorneygeneral/education-liberty
It's only to be used for its intended purpose: Calling out underpaid public school teachers as godless Commies for the thought crime of teaching from books that have people of color and LGBTQ+ people in them. Because that's totally not weaponizing our own tax dollars against us.

A disciplinary hearing is underway in Indiana to decide whether to penalize a doctor who spoke publicly about providing an abortion to a 10-year-old rape victim from Ohio.
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita, a Republican, has accused Dr. Caitlin Bernard of failing to report child abuse and violating patient privacy by speaking to a reporter about the young girl's case. In a written complaint in November, Rokita asked the Indiana Medical Licensing Board to impose a disciplinary action on Bernard accordingly.
In July, The Indianapolis Star reported that Bernard had taken a call from a doctor regarding a suspected case of child abuse involving the 10-year-old girl. The child was just over six weeks pregnant. Ohio prohibits abortions after around six weeks of pregnancy, under a law that was enacted after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
The girl went to Indiana to receive care from Bernard, the Star reported, where abortion was legal at the time. Since then, Indiana has passed a near-total abortion ban, though a judge subsequently put the law on hold.
"I was surprised that people think that young girls are not, unfortunately, frequently raped and become pregnant," Bernard said during the Thursday hearing. 
"The idea that this was something that someone would make up or was a lie, or is something that doesn't happen, was very surprising to me."
