Today is the last of our incredible podcasts recorded at Netroots Nation! 

We are going out with a bang as we unpack the dark and creepy AF history behind Operation Rescue/Operation Save America. Author and journalist Robin Marty joins us as we dive into their dangerous attacks on abortion access, LGBTQ, and non-Christian communities. 

Plus we hit some of the biggest stories happening in abortion access this week! 

Listen up!
