Yes kill babies ppl. The most unsafe place for a baby is in its mother's womb.

'unprecedented' 'single'. Could your left wing bias be any more blatant? We know you have to toe the far left line of your corporate overlord, Disney, but this is pathetic. Even by your low standards.

Dems be like…We need to abort babies!🤬🤬🤬🤬

Court preserves access to abortion drug, tightens rulesA federal appeals court has preserved access to an abortion drug for now but under tighter rules that would allow the drug only to be dispensed up to seven weeks, not 10, and not by mail. The drug, mifepristone, was approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration more than two decades ago. It’s used in combination with a second drug, misoprostol. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans ruled Wednesday just before midnight. By a 2-1 vote a panel of three judges narrowed for now a decision by a lower court judge in Texas that had completely blocked the FDA’s approval of the drug following a lawsuit by mifepristone’s opponents. Why? It still feels like a Republican win with those rules. Some women don't know that they are pregnant at 7 weeks. L 1 clown still in a robe.

Pharma condemns Texas abortion drug rulingDrug and biotech companies are coming to the defense of the FDA and assailing a Texas court's ruling on abortion pills. They say it sets a dangerous precedent for undermining federal drug approvals. oh nooooo not Big Pharma The problem is they had 30 years and DIDN’T formally approve it. Just like the states had DECADES to enact their own legislation about abortion and dropped the ball, since they believed in judicial legislation. lazylawmakers
