This could END ABORTION in all 50 states

Añadido: 2026-05-08

[00:00:00]There have been several moves in the past month that signal a really scary reality about the future of women's health care in the United States. And efforts are underway to try to restrict abortion access nationwide. They want to end abortion nationally. And this is not getting anywhere near the attention it deserves. And it is a miscarriage of the media, for lack of a better term, that this is not getting more attention.

[00:00:29]These efforts have flown way under the radar of major news headlines and I want to talk about it with you today to make sure more people know what is going on because it is a dangerous disaster. Now think back to when Roie Wade was overturned. We were told something very specific. We are not trying to ban abortion nationwide. We want to send the issue back to the states and if states decide they don't want abortion, fine.

[00:00:58]And if other states decide they do want legal abortion, that's also fine. That's what they said. That was the argument.

[00:01:04]That was the reassurance. Don't worry.

[00:01:06]But if you actually look at what's happening right now, that explanation simply doesn't hold up. Because the most common form of abortion in the United States is not a procedure. It is medication. It is methapristone.

[00:01:21]Mythopristone, a pill, accounts for 63% of all abortions. It's also used in miscarriage care and the drug has been approved since the year 2000. For more than two decades, it wasn't seriously in question whether it would remain legal.

[00:01:41]And then in the last couple of years, you start seeing legal challenges trying to undo the approval. And one of those cases made it all the way to the Supreme Court in FDA v. Alliance for Hypocratic Medicine. The court didn't uphold the challenge, but not because they rejected the argument. The court said the plaintiffs didn't have standing. That is very important because it means that the door remains open and it means the issue wasn't really settled. It just means they have to try again with a different approach. That's happening right now.

[00:02:16]Now, you might be saying, "Oh, David, I haven't heard about this." That's the problem. You're seeing new cases right now targeting mythopristone again, including attempts to restrict teleaalth prescriptions and attempts to restrict mailing of the drug, which of course is a completely reasonable way for people to to obtain the drug. They want to make it more complicated. You have to go in in person, no tellaalth, and you've got to go also into the pharmacy. It goes from having to leave the house zero times to having to leave the house twice. Now, on paper, that might sound like a pretty narrow change, but in reality, this is a way to limit access across state lines without saying we are banning it. Now, at the same time, you have federal legislation from people like Republican Senator Josh Holly, which goes way further and would remove FDA approval entirely for the drug, which would effectively ban it nationwide. Senator Josh Holly tweeted about this. And in fact, his wife works for the Alliance Defending Freedom.

[00:03:22]That's the group bringing the lawsuit.

[00:03:24]He posted, quote, "This is Aaron's case.

[00:03:28]Incredibly proud of her. My pristone sends one in 10 women who use it to the emergency room with life-threatening conditions. Now it's time for Congress to ban it completely for use in abortion. Now, by the way, that claim isn't even true. Uh the claim of one, you've got to look really there's three elements to it. One in 10 women go to the ER with a life-threatening condition because of mythopristone. Right? So there there's really three important elements to it. It comes from a non-perreviewed study from a right-wing organization which claimed that within 45 days of taking methopristone 10% of women had a serious adverse event. Now the problems are how they define serious adverse events is completely whacked out. Going to the ER doesn't mean it's life-threatening. Going to the ER doesn't mean it's because of methopristone. And going to the ER within 45 days isn't necessarily related to the drug. But that's not really the issue here. Just like of course they're lying, but it's not really the issue.

[00:04:43]There is more than just a single effort here being made to try to effectively ban medication abortions. They've got multiple irons in the fire. They've got the court challenges. They've got the regulatory pressure and federal legislation all at the same time. And a lot of these efforts are connected to the same legal networks, including that one I mentioned that Josh Holly's wife works for, the Alliance Defending Freedom, which has been involved in a lot of abortion related cases. And so, what we have to acknowledge here is that they are coordinating. This is not random. This is it's strategic. They are saying let's do all of these things at once. And it is also not a theoretical thing. In states with strict abortion bans, there have already been cases where women were experiencing miscarriages and were told you can't receive any care until there is no fetal heartbeat. So women get sent home waiting sometimes for days facing medical risk to themselves, serious trauma to themselves. And in many cases, these are wanted pregnancies that did not work out. These are people in some of these cases trying to have children, being told they have to wait for things to get worse before doctors can do anything. So you put all of it together, the idea that this is just a states rights issue becomes much harder to believe because on three fronts they are fighting to effectively restrict or ban what are nearly 2thirds of abortions referred to as medication abortions and the use of myopristone in miscarriage.

[00:06:26]What we are seeing here and I've got to hand it to them in the sense that it is evil genius. This is a multi-deade effort. They are like the dog that bites down and simply will not let go.

[00:06:41]Decades. Let's get Roie Wade overturned.

[00:06:44]We've got to adjust who's on the Supreme Court. They spent decades doing it and now they are going to the next level which is can we get rid of meristone?

[00:06:54]Can we get rid of it through convenience elements like you can't do teleaalth and you can't mail the drug? Can we get rid of it by getting the FDA to reverse approval? And the effort to further restrict abortion, which I told you wouldn't end when they got Roie Wade overturned, has not. It bolstered them.

[00:07:16]It invigorated them to say, "Can we do even more? It is in its next phase right now." And it's important that we all be aware of what's going on. Thanks for watching. Check out this other video.
