Republicans trying to control women but not themselves.
Imagine thiking that you have a "right" to murder a child. Smh.
Even after approval, Mifepristone has been subjected to a much stricter regulation scheme than the vast majority of drugs that receive FDA approval, despite Mifepristone’s pretty incredible safety record. There have been more than 100 studies on the safety of abortion-inducing medications, and all of the legitimate ones have found that these drugs have very good safety records. Even some of the studies cited by the anti-abortion plaintiffs in this case still find that abortion pills are safe, but abortion opponents have twisted them and lied about their findings — arguing, for example, that bleeding is a “serious side effect,” when abortion pills by definition induce a miscarriage, which means significant bleeding.
Nearly 10 times as many people in the US died from taking Viagra in the first eight months after that drug’s approval than have died from abortion pills in 23 years. And of course the opposite of abortion is not “nothing” but continued pregnancy and childbirth, which is nearly five times as dangerous as ending a pregnancy with abortion pills.
You can feel however you want about abortion, but there are also basic facts at hand. The fact is that Mifepristone is far safer than many of the drugs Americans take every day, from penicillin to Viagra. And it is far, far safer than childbirth.
That may be inconvenient for the anti-abortion movement, but it doesn’t make it false. Instead of just addressing their problem with Mifepristone, though – and the problem isn’t that it’s unsafe for women and girls, the problem is that it’s part of a very safe and every effective protocol for inducing an abortion – the anti-abortion movement pretends to care about safety and women’s health. This opens a pretty big can of worms. Because if Mifepristone is unsafe, and if the FDA’s own decisions on its regulation are substandard, then what drug could survive this kind of judicial scrutiny? And if individual judges can exert their own authority over the FDA and say that a drug the agency has approved should actually not be allowed on the market, what authority does the FDA really have?
Term limits for supreme court! And redo every hearing for the Dump appointed judges. Precede each hearing with thorough investigation of the individual.
Wondering how you would feel white men how would you feel if court bans Viagra?????!
There is a separation of church and state. My morals are mine learned in church. Someone else's may and most likely will differ from mine. It is not up to the government to pass laws dictating my morals or anyone else's.
Joe Biden and the Democrats are destroying this country and that also includes the family of the reporters at nBC but they don't seem to care
Obviously,,, DEMONS Don't Understand that,,,
KILLING BABIES, IS WRONG !
I love watching educated people wait until the last minute to do important things.
Isn’t it interesting that all of these right wing Christian nationalist scream out loud when anyone says a woman has a right to her body, but they are the same people who stand and shout that you cannot put a vaccine in their body because they are in control of their body. These are the same people who pick and choose which Bible verses they want to make a case with. they are hypocritical bigots and racist and they are the worst of the worst. We as Americans cannot stand idly by and let 40% of this nation who claim to be the Christian right take over control of our country. We cannot allow this to happen.
Men want to take away womans rights… while they dress as woman smh

Religious cultist weasels his way into position of power, begins to re-write how science, the constitution, and the definitions of words work.
Right wing American this abortion ban on the abortion pill will come back and haunt these bans, what and when ur right wing daughter get pregnant by a drug dealer or a gangster
Don't other religions grant a right to abortion? Women should just stop
Everything till they get their choice back. Otherwise it will soon be the new norm they are trying to wait people out. While they protest the justices take ill gotten vacations paid for by dirty money.
The Supreme Court is illegitimate, and some should be replaced .
Here a situation, what if a black life matter personal got a neo-Nazi or a clan daughter or a racist right-wing pregnant , you know they would violate the abortion law and get abortion for their daughter.. GUESS WHAT RIGHT WING AMERICAN IT IS AND IT WILL HAPPEN TO UR DAUGHTER, MAYBE RIGHT NOW 😮😮😮😮😮

Population growth is declining and that is not good for business. So Big Biz wants to remedy this issue…
MORE BABIES = MORE CUSTOMERS!
There are millions of dead babies in our water supply
Impeach the lawless corrupt partisan perjurers on illegitimate scotus. republican evilgelicals do NOT have consent of the governed. Americans will NOT submit to authoritarian fascist theocratic minority rule by force. We will defend our country against all enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC.
The UN-American Republicans are taking this country back 100 years. The only way to solve this is to make sure that all those Republicans who are up for re-election in 2024 are replaced by Democrats at the voting booth.
Abortion thru euthanization. You choose to end an innocent life , end yours at the same time. Keep waiting to hear about the man who doesn't take the death of his unborn lightly and murders these woman for it. He was just performing an abortion.
The less democrats the better, we can do without more of them and this pill will help👏👏👏👏👏
God bless Texas. ❤
