They’ve been freaking out about this issue all day: M&M’s is launching woke ‘all-female’ packs to celebrate female empowerment and attempt to shake things up in a continued shift toward progressive branding. Mars, M&M’s parent company, debuted the feminist candy wrappers earlier this week, exclusively featuring the company’s three female mascots: green, brown and the newly-introduced purple. The all-female package – upside down, to show how powerful women have ‘flipped the status quo’ – will be the first time the brown and green M&Ms have been featured together since a viral tweet from 2015 sparked rumors they were a lesbian couple. It isn’t the first time they’ve gotten hysterical over M&Ms. Recall this: Carlson has tackled important issues such as Elmo’s opinions on BLM, and the supposed cancellation of Dr. Seuss, whose books continue to be massively popular. Recently, Carlson was triggered by a redesign of the M&M cartoon characters used to market the candy.

I wrote this morning about the Democratic Senate picking up their own gavels to do some investigating and it looks like Senator Warren is already on the case: Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) is launching a new investigation today into the potential ramifications of the 15-week abortion ban Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) introduced earlier this month — sending letters to five major health care organizations asking how such a law would impact both patients and providers. The letters to the American Medical Association, American Pharmacists Association, American Hospital Association, Physicians for Reproductive Health and National Nurses United — first shared with POLITICO — ask whether the proposed restriction would hamper access to “pregnancy care (such as care for miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies), reproductive care (such as emergency contraception and fertility services), and any other form of health care.” Warren is asking the groups to respond by Sept. 30.
