An important thing to know about the “abortion pill reversal” case-what Bonta is (correctly) alleging is that the defendants are misleading women by claiming that APR is safe in effective-when all of the available evidence indicates that it’s not. What’s more-any provider will tell you that mifepristone alone is almost certainly not going terminare a pregnancy. So APR’s “success” rate is really taking credit for the result of women choosing not to take misoprostol after mifepristone. Because a woman doesn’t complete the medication regimen, the pregnancy continues. Yet APR pushers distort this fact into a basis for encouraging women to take experimental mega doses of progesterone with no record of efficacy for this use.
Unfortunately NH passed gestational limitations (of 24 weeks with limited exceptions), which went into effect 1/1/22. (comment in reference to the last paragraph).
I assume Todd Blanche is referring to the Comstock Act in the leaked audio or some other way to achieve that. Can’t wait to hear your reporting on this matter.
This is not the subject, but today in the St Louis Post Dispatch page 5 of the e-edition is a picture of Senator Eric Schmitt holding up a notepad stating I DON'T CARE with a smiling Senator Katie Britt looking at him. The picture states that Senator Cory Booker is speaking about Epstein victims. Senator Schmitt was Missouri's Attorney General. The article is about Todd Blanche's confirmation hearings.
It's of course ridiculous that our male government (!?) thinks it needs to get involved in women's bodies. They can just fuck off. Butt the fuck out. Men that don't understand anything about women's bodies are using this as another form of weaponry, rape . It all boils down to power and control. They have next to none, so focus their tantrums on women.
Emily Moreno Miller probably never thought that she would ever be abused by her husband. That's just not supposed to happen to good conservative women,but it does.
'And, yes: I’ll make this about abortion. Abortion bans are gender-based violence, meaning gender-based violence is baked into the very fabric of the GOP’s platform. Of course they’ll embrace candidates accused of gender-based violence: to do so is a core piece of their political identity.'

Personally I'd like a campaign to stop the spread of organized religion, in particular Catholicism and Evangelical Protestantism.
Nobody should be forced to carry a doomed fetus. Ever.
Excellent reporting. Thank you. 😊

Spot on, Kylie. Thank you.
Susan Collins should carry the stigma of being the confirmation vote of Kavanaugh until the end of her days. Never forget
Keep repeating this. We are trying!!
How about Death Dealing Susan as a descriptor?
Sounds like a fit.
These antiabortion activists need to be exposed for their lies and bullshit.
Yes. The media ought to call their bluff.
Maryland also has no gestational limits, FYI.
