A transcription of the video, with source links and post-video notes, follows.

June 14, 2024/in Abortion pills, Legislation, laws, & court cases, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Yesterday the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the FDA in Food and Drug Administration v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine. The Court found that the AHM lacked standing to challenge the FDA’s regulatory changes to the abortion drug mifepristone. The decision was unanimous and Justice Kavanaugh wrote the opinion. From the drug’s approval in 2000 […]

“Rape is violence. Abortion is more violence.”

June 10, 2024/in Rape Exception, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Guest Blogger

Today’s guest author is Mrs. Meggy. It’s not helpful or compassionate to rape survivors who get pregnant to push abortion as the solution. It happened to me: I found out I was pregnant shortly after I was raped. I went to my counselor at the crisis center. I told her I had just had a […]

Billionaire Melinda French Gates recently made headlines for her pledge to donate hundreds of millions of dollars to groups advocating “reproductive rights.” Her statements to the press made it clear that this is a euphemism for abortion: “While I have long focused on improving contraceptive access overseas, in the post-Dobbs era, I now feel compelled […]
