Seems the #ProLife types are really #ProDeath [of women who seek reproductive care or choose not to have children] and #ProBirth [but do nothing to improve #SocialWelfare programs] and against #BodilyAutomony. And, apparently, they only want #WhiteSupremacists like themselves to breed, eh? [#ForcedSterilization for anyone not up to THEIR standards?!] Hmmmm... #WhiteNationalism #Eugenics #CallItWhatItIs
SCOTUS just gave abortion clinics a rare win
But more significant threats from Trump’s Department of Justice remain.
by Julianne McShane, 2/24/2025
"Abortion rights advocates took the court’s rejection of the cases as a win, albeit a limited one.
"Katie O’Connor, director of federal abortion policy at the National Women’s Law Center, said that while the organization was “relieved” to hear about the court’s decision, “anti-abortion extremists are now more emboldened” thanks to Trump.
"Last month, for example, Trump’s DOJ announced it would limit enforcement of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, a 1994 federal law that prohibits physical force, threats, or intimidation against people trying to access reproductive health clinics. While the law has been used to prosecute both anti-abortion protesters targeting abortion clinics and abortion rights protesters targeting anti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers, Trump baselessly claimed the Biden administration 'selectively weaponized [the law] against Christians.' The new DOJ guidance—which says the FACE Act should only be used in 'extraordinary circumstances' or cases involving 'death, serious bodily harm, or serious property damage'—reportedly has abortion providers bracing for more intense protests and fearing more violence. (The DOJ’s directive to limit FACE Act enforcement, though, does not override the legality of buffer zones, which are controlled by state and local law enforcement.)"

Walked over to #PlannedParenthood's office in #PortlandMaine today. Too cold for #ProLife types? If they do show up, maybe they should do some reading (assuming they can read)...

New York doctor indicted for prescribing #AbortionPill in #Louisiana
By SARA CLINE and GEOFF MULVIHILL
Updated 2:53 PM EST, January 31, 2025
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — "A New York doctor was indicted by a Louisiana grand jury on Friday for allegedly prescribing an abortion pill online in the #DeepSouth state, which has one of the strictest near-total #AbortionBans in the country.
"Grand jurors at the District Court for the Parish of West Baton Rouge issued an indictment against Dr. #MargaretCarpenter; her company, #NightingaleMedical, PC; and a third person. All three were charged with #CriminalAbortion by means of #abortion-inducing drugs, a #felony.
"The case appears to be the first instance of criminal charges against a doctor accused of sending abortion pills to another state, at least since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned #RoeVWade in 2022 and opened the door for states to have strict anti-abortion laws."
