It was just a few days ago that we discussed the extreme level of disdain that Democrats were displaying, seemingly out of nowhere, toward a small number of white refugees who were arriving in the United States. All at once, the same people with the yard signs that proclaim &#8220;no one is illegal&#8221; and &#8220;love is love&#8221; were suddenly overcome with bloodlust, all because a handful of Afrikaners landed at Dulles airport. In the history of &#8220;mask-off moments&#8221; in this country, this one ranks pretty high on the list. It&#8217;s a bit like when the Manson Family single-handedly destroyed the reputation of the hippie movement. Once you start talking about murdering people &#8212; or actually murdering people &#8212; you can&#8217;t really recover from it. No one&#8217;s going to buy your &#8220;peace and love&#8221; schtick ever again. They&#8217;re going to see you for exactly what you are.
In the case of the Afrikaners, what underlies the race hatred on the Left is their transparent desire to see all of Western civilization crumble. Everyone understands that now. They want to import Somali fraudsters and Central American gangsters while turning away white farmers precisely because they know that the white farmers will improve this country, while the criminals will destroy it. There has never been another point in American history where the political divide has been so stark: One side wants the United States to prosper, while the other wants the entire continent to devolve into a dysfunctional wasteland. They want to bring ruin to one of the few remaining functional countries on the planet. What this means is that, in essence, Democrats have adopted nihilism. They do not believe human life has any inherent worth or purpose. They reject truth and objectivity in all contexts. They are anti-human, and they&#8217;re no longer being very subtle about it.
For years, it&#8217;s been evident that nihilists and pro-human conservatives have been on a collision course. After all, these are not remotely compatible ideologies. They are not capable of co-existing in one place for any significant length of time. Humanity, simply by existing, enrages anti-human nihilists. And these nihilists are realizing that, despite their best efforts, there&#8217;s only so much destruction you can achieve by importing the third world and murdering children in the womb. Therefore, it was only a matter of time until one of these nihilists decided to take matters into his own hands and commit an act of terrorism. And on Saturday morning, that&#8217;s exactly what happened.

Just before noon, less than an hour from downtown Palm Springs, California, a 25-year-old man detonated a vehicle-borne explosive device in the car park outside a fertility clinic called &#8220;American Reproductive Centers.&#8221; According to the authorities, the result was &#8220;the largest bombing scene that we&#8217;ve had in Southern California.&#8221; Several people were injured. Offices were damaged, although the lab at the fertility clinic, which houses eggs and embryos, was not affected. One man was thrown from his bike, and the impact was felt two miles away. Watch:

You can listen to that whole news report, and you won&#8217;t find any explanation of the suspect&#8217;s motives. And you know why that is: It&#8217;s highly inconvenient for these people to tell the truth about Left-wing terrorism, because they&#8217;re still trying to convince everyone that white supremacy is the greatest threat facing the country. So here&#8217;s the truth: The bomber left behind extensive writings and audio recordings on the internet, meticulously explaining that he committed this act of terrorism as part of a &#8220;war against pro-lifers.&#8221; Those are his words. He says that &#8220;the bible is slander against Satan,&#8221; that God is a &#8220;creep,&#8221; and that &#8220;Your God definitely doesn&#8217;t exist, but if he did, I&#8217;d choose satan over your evil God.&#8221; The bomber also states that he wants to begin the process of &#8220;sterilizing this planet of the disease of life.&#8221; There&#8217;s also reportedly some rage against Elon Musk, who famously opposes the depopulation of the planet.
A day before the attack, according to researcher Erin Cruz, the bomber openly <a href="https://x.com/ghostmthr/status/1924158158471098647" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> his plans on a message board devoted to &#8220;sanctioned suicide,&#8221; right down to the precise bomb-making techniques he planned to use, and how he planned to be high on opiates at the time of the explosion. But apparently no one reported this post, even though several people &#8220;liked&#8221; it and responded. If this reporting is accurate, and it appears to be, then it&#8217;s obviously yet another indictment of our intelligence services. It&#8217;s also a sign of how pervasive this anti-human death cult is. There are entire communities devoted to ending the human race. And even when they&#8217;re talking about acts of terrorism, no one&#8217;s paying any attention to them.
But we should be paying attention, because what happened on Saturday was not an aberration. Nihilism is the guiding ethos of the elites, which is why every day, they&#8217;re promoting it in one context or another. Maybe the most striking <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/controversy-rages-as-brain-dead-woman-kept-alive-to-save-unborn-child?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=0&amp;row=3&amp;rowHeadline=Latest+News&amp;rowType=Vertical+Carousel&amp;title=Controversy+Rages+As+Brain-Dead+Woman+Kept+Alive+To+Save+Unborn+Child" target="_blank" rel="noopener">case</a> involves the Left&#8217;s current effort to secure the murder of a 21-week-old child in the state of Georgia. Here&#8217;s the background. In February, a 30-year-old woman named Adriana Smith was nine weeks pregnant when she began suffering from severe headaches. She went to the hospital, which gave her medications and sent her home. The next day, according to her boyfriend, she began gasping for air and making gurgling noises. A CT scan showed that she had multiple blood clots in her brain. As of now, she&#8217;s 21 weeks pregnant and brain-dead. She&#8217;s been kept alive on a ventilator for months so that she can give birth. In other words, the doctors are doing everything they can to preserve the life of the unborn child.
This is an outcome that, unless you&#8217;re a demon who despises humanity, you would obviously support. The alternative is to kill the child solely because his mother is brain-dead. But that alternative outcome is precisely what the corporate press is pushing for. In fact, it also appears to be what the woman&#8217;s family is pushing for. The woman&#8217;s mother, April Newkirk, just gave an interview with NBC News, where she suggested that they might want to kill the child because of the possibility that it will be difficult to raise him. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Pregnant woman declared brain dead is being kept alive due to Georgia’s heartbeat law" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/I4c-P0ZYSbo?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
You can tell what&#8217;s going on here. She understands that, if she comes out and tells doctors to murder her own grandchild, everyone will immediately recognize what a cartoonishly evil goblin that she is. So instead, she suggests that she just wants the &#8220;choice&#8221; to decide whether to kill her grandchild, without saying definitively whether she&#8217;d follow through with it. (Never mind the fact that, obviously, the only reason she&#8217;d want the &#8220;choice&#8221; is so that she can exercise that choice).
And that&#8217;s evident by the end of the interview, where she states that she&#8217;s &#8220;in her 50s,&#8221; and therefore she&#8217;s incapable of taking care of a child. That&#8217;s literally one of the excuses she uses to murder her own grandchild. &#8220;Oh, I&#8217;m in my 50s and so is my husband; how could I possibly help raise this child? Better kill him instead.&#8221; Just pause to consider the implications of that statement for a second. And then realize that a major television network aired it, sympathetically, as if there&#8217;s nothing deranged and demonic about it. She&#8217;s looking at one tragedy &#8212; the death of her daughter &#8212; and then openly fantasizing about killing another member of her family. There are women in their 90s who would leap at the opportunity to help raise their grandchild, especially if it meant saving his life. But this woman&#8217;s just too old for that, apparently. Of course, if she were in her 20s or 30s, we&#8217;d be hearing about how the grandchild is just too inconvenient for her career or whatever. These people will rationalize murder in one way or another. That&#8217;s a given.
Now, to be as fair as possible to this force of personified evil that walks among us, she does offer another excuse, besides being &#8220;in her 50s.&#8221; She also says that it&#8217;s possible her grandchild might be &#8220;blind, and may not be able to walk.&#8221; Therefore, we&#8217;re supposed to sympathize with her decision to kill the child. Again, in a functioning, moral society, this woman would be in prison for plotting to kill her disabled grandchild. At the very least, she&#8217;d be receiving a psych evaluation as we speak. Instead, she&#8217;s being encouraged to say all of this. The corporate press and the Left are completely behind her. And of course that&#8217;s *why* she&#8217;s doing it. She&#8217;s flippantly justifying the murder of her own grandchild because, for her whole life, she&#8217;s been told that it&#8217;s her right to commit murder. And she lacks the moral character and intelligence to come to any other conclusion.
For Democrats and the media, the angle is pretty clear. They&#8217;re suggesting that Georgia&#8217;s &#8220;heartbeat law,&#8221; which bans abortions after roughly six weeks in most cases, has resulted in a dystopian scenario where women are being chained to beds and forced to give birth. They&#8217;re not talking about the life of the child at all. They&#8217;re not even discussing the extraordinary circumstances involved in this particular case. Instead, they&#8217;re pretending that women are going to be lined up, enslaved and turned into baby-making machines, at scale. Here&#8217;s one representative social media <a href="https://x.com/DarthandDogs/status/1923383548880331217" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a> — it has more than five million views and hundreds of thousands of &#8220;likes&#8221;:
&#8220;Remember the episode in the Handmaid&#8217;s Tale, where a brain dead, black handmaid is kept on life support long enough to give birth? This is happening in Atlanta, GA right now. Her name is Adriana Smith. She was only 9wks when the state kidnapped her body from her family.&#8221;
Yes, the state &#8220;kidnapped her body from her family,&#8221; according to this post. Of course, they omit any explanation of what actually happened. They don&#8217;t explain that the alternative is to murder the child, either. Instead, we just get a pop culture reference. And this really gets at a larger problem, which is that a large proportion of the population is only capable of engaging in any kind of moral reasoning by using analogies to recent works of fiction.
This is how most Democrats are taught to think. And of course, they dutifully obey. But it&#8217;s not how the leaders of the Democrat Party think. They&#8217;re far more intelligent, and far more evil. And if you listen to them long enough, they&#8217;ll explain exactly what they have in mind for the future of this country. They won&#8217;t simply embrace the so-called &#8220;great replacement&#8221; theory. They&#8217;ll go into great detail, explaining why it&#8217;s bad for Americans to have nuclear families and to believe in Christ. They&#8217;ll also elaborate on why it&#8217;s better for foreigners to come into this country and have large families to replace all of the natives. Here&#8217;s Hillary Clinton to explain:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="003 Clinton anti catholic" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hAi-HnEe3y4?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
We&#8217;ve been having a lot of &#8220;mask off&#8221; moments lately on the Left. This is one of the more revealing ones. Notice what she&#8217;s *not* saying. She&#8217;s not explaining what&#8217;s wrong with Christianity. She&#8217;s also not explaining why it&#8217;s wrong to advocate for stable, two-parent households. Twenty years ago, this would&#8217;ve been an issue that 100% of Americans would agree on. Every single person would&#8217;ve told you that intact, two-parent households are a good thing. But now we have one of the most prominent Democrats in the world stating, as if it&#8217;s obvious to everyone, that it&#8217;s bad to advocate for Christian nuclear families.
And then she immediately reveals exactly what she doesn&#8217;t like about the nuclear family. She wants illegal aliens, whom she calls &#8220;undocumented,&#8221; to &#8220;replenish&#8221; the American population. She wants this country to lose its national identity as quickly as possible. And the nuclear family stands in the way of that. Of course, even if Hillary Clinton really believed that foreign nationals are a net benefit to the American economy &#8212; which they aren&#8217;t &#8212; there&#8217;s still no reason whatsoever for her to advocate *against* stable American families. That part of her argument is completely unexplained. You&#8217;d think she&#8217;d support foreign migration in addition to American families. But she doesn&#8217;t. She only supports the illegal aliens because she knows that, eventually, they will completely replace this country&#8217;s population. And once they do that, every country will be just as dysfunctional as Somalia and Haiti and Venezuela. Food shortages and disease will spread, and millions of people will die. Hillary Clinton knows all of this, and she&#8217;s doing everything in her power &#8212; which is thankfully limited at the moment &#8212; to make it happen.
And that tells you, for at least the third time this week, that Democrats are fundamentally an anti-human party. They reject the idea that human life has any intrinsic value. They also despise Western civilization and see third-world migration as a way to destabilize and destroy it. And anti-natalism is the core plank of this ideology. It&#8217;s evident in the terrorist attack in California. It&#8217;s evident in this deranged effort by a grandmother to unlock the &#8220;option&#8221; of murdering her own grandchild. And it&#8217;s evident if you listen to Hillary Clinton speak for five seconds. This is a worldview that&#8217;s taken hold at every level of the Left. It&#8217;s only sustainable because most people don&#8217;t see what&#8217;s happening. For the sake of the future generations &#8212; generations that these people badly do not want to exist &#8212; it&#8217;s time to start paying attention.

Opinion

Pro-Life Movement

People often say, “Never discuss politics in polite company.” But, considering today’s volatile climate, let’s break that rule.
As a Christian who’s been president and CEO of Care Net since 2012, I’ve seen the abortion debate shift dramatically — especially since the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization overturned Roe v. Wade. Many pro-lifers celebrated, thinking we’d won the war.
But did we declare victory too soon?
For decades, the pro-life goal was clear: overturn Roe through the courts. Every January, faithful pro-lifers marched in Washington, D.C., aiming for the right Supreme Court justices to rule in favor of life. Dobbs seemed like the victory we’d fought for — overruling Roe and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, declaring abortion isn’t a “substantive right” rooted in our nation’s history.
But events since then demand we reflect and consider the serious limits of purely political solutions.
The Democratic Party’s position on abortion hasn’t budged since 2012: abortion on demand, anytime, for any reason. It’s their litmus test. Meanwhile, the Republican stance has shifted.
In 2012, with Mitt Romney as their standard-bearer, Republicans opposed all abortions except in cases of rape, incest, or the mother’s life — exceptions that would make 97 percent of abortions illegal. Today, President Donald Trump says abortion should be left to “the will of the people” at the state level. Other Republicans support six- or fifteen-week bans with exceptions, allowing nearly 98% of abortions, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The 2024 Republican platform no longer affirms the unborn’s “fundamental right to life” or supports a Human Life Amendment, only opposing late-term abortions — less than 2% of cases.
Here’s the inconvenient truth: when you consider the abortion issue based on both parties’ platforms, both parties are essentially pro-choice now — one has no exceptions, the other has some.
The debate isn’t about bans anymore; it’s about abortion availability.
This shift undermines two core pro-life convictions: human life begins at conception and is worthy of protection, and a baby’s value isn’t determined by conception circumstances. A weeks-based approach — negotiating when it’s acceptable to end a life — compromises these convictions. This should be as non-negotiable as saying it’s wrong to kill an innocent outside the womb.
Pro-choice advocates don’t negotiate. Their conviction — bodily autonomy at all costs — supports abortion up to birth. That’s why they fought Mississippi’s fifteen-week ban in Dobbs, even though it seemed they would lose. But our weeks-based strategy fails morally and practically. Morally, it undermines the baby’s personhood. Practically, compromising on conviction doesn’t inspire others to adopt it. I can’t think of a successful movement — religious, political, or social — where this approach worked.
History shows that compromising on conviction rarely inspires change. Look at slavery. Abraham Lincoln called it “wrong, morally and politically” in 1859, yet his 1861 inaugural address avoided abolishing it, focusing on stopping its spread. He compromised.
Abolitionists like Frederick Douglass shared Lincoln’s conviction but refused to negotiate, linking their actions to ending slavery entirely. Douglass’s clarity pushed Lincoln. By 1865, Lincoln couldn’t imagine a union with slavery, seeing the Civil War as God-ordained “woe” for the offense of slavery.
We need that clarity today. A weeks-based framework doesn’t inspire courage in politicians or the culture. Without acting like Douglass, we won’t get a Lincoln. I’m grateful for pro-life Republicans working to support women at risk for abortion, and for Dobbs. But if the national policy tolerates most abortions, those efforts are muted. Indeed, abortions are up since Roe was overturned, more states have loosened their restrictions on abortion than not, and public opinion has shifted in a pro-choice direction.
Politicians face Pontius Pilate’s dilemma when faced with an innocent Jesus: “Should the shouts of a powerful and vocal crowd sway them to sacrifice the innocent?” The politics of abortion don’t change its morality. In 2012, Republicans had a measure of clarity — I hope they regain it, and Democrats find it, because vulnerable lives are at stake.
Culture shapes politics, and religion shapes culture. The 2023 Ohio ballot initiative, making abortion a constitutional right, passed with 57% support in a “pro-life” state. Exit polls showed Catholics and Protestants voted yes at rates mirroring the broader culture. Worse, 54% of women who have abortions profess to be Catholic or Protestant.
If you lose the pews, you lose at the polls.

Why Politics Alone Will Never Save the Pro-Life Movement

The mother of a brain-dead woman who is 21-weeks pregnant is upset that her daughter is being kept alive to save the unborn child, a baby boy.
April Newkirk has told the press that her 30-year-old daughter, Adriana Smith, is being kept alive by ventilators, blaming Georgia&#8217;s pro-life law, which bans abortion of unborn babies after six weeks gestation, with some exceptions.
Newkirk says doctors told her she&#8217;s not allowed to take her daughter off the ventilators, so they can protect and save her grandson.
“It should have been left up to the family,” Newkirk said, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/family-forced-keep-brain-dead-pregnant-woman-alive-rcna207002?cid=sm_npd_nn_tw_ma&amp;taid=68264b5179b66e000101d84f&amp;utm_campaign=trueanthem&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to NBC News. “I’m not saying that we would have chose to terminate her pregnancy, but what I’m saying is, we should have had a choice.&#8221;
It&#8217;s not entirely clear if Georgia&#8217;s abortion law is the reason Smith is being kept alive.
A spokesman for Emory Healthcare, the healthcare system overseeing Smith&#8217;s care, said they use &#8220;consensus from clinical experts, medical literature, and legal guidance to support our providers as they make individualized treatment recommendations in compliance with Georgia’s abortion laws and all other applicable laws.”
“Our top priorities continue to be the safety and wellbeing of the patients we serve,” the spokesperson added.
In Georgia, an unborn child cannot be killed via abortion after six weeks of pregnancy, except in rare cases, like the health of the mother, rape, incest, or some fetal abnormalities.
Back in February, when Smith was nine-weeks pregnant with her second child, she began feeling unwell and suffering severe headaches. She went to a nearby hospital and was given medication. The following day, however, Smith&#8217;s boyfriend says the 30-year-old was gasping for air and making gargling noises when she woke up.
Smith was eventually transferred to Emory University Hospital, and a CT scan showed multiple blood clots in her brain, NBC News noted.
Ventilators have been keeping Smith breathing for months, Newkirk said. “It’s torture for me,” she said. “I see my daughter breathing, but she’s not there.”
Newkirk added that her family is having to incur costs to keep Smith on life-support.

Controversy Rages As Brain-Dead Woman Kept Alive To Save Unborn Child

An elderly pro-life man who was brutally beaten outside of a Baltimore Planned Parenthood says he&#8217;ll keep fighting until his attacker is behind bars, even though the city is “dragging its feet” bringing him justice.
Nearly two years ago Mark Crosby, 75, was beaten alongside 86-year-old Richard Schaefer as they stood outside Planned Parenthood and urged women not to get abortions. Patrick Brice, their 28-year-old attacker, is set to be retried at the end of the month after he dodged a first-degree assault charge in March while being convicted of lesser assault charges. 
“They want us to get hurt again so we go away. But I’m not going away until this guy goes to jail,” Crosby told The Daily Wire. “I’m so prepared, I’m ready for battle, ready to win.”
Brice is set to be retried on May 28 for the first-degree assault charge that he dodged during his trial back in March. Crosby said he was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/pro-lifer-beaten-outside-of-planned-parenthood-surprised-after-no-verdict-on-key-charge">surprised</a> that the previous jury couldn’t come to a consensus because he saw them groaning and looking away while footage of the attack played. 
Footage released by the Baltimore Police Department <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDMYSWHJuNM&amp;rco=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shows</a> Brice tackling Schaefer into a potted plant after an argument outside Planned Parenthood. As Crosby ran up to assist Schaefer, Brice turned and shoved Crosby to the ground, punching him in the face before standing up and kicking him in the face before walking off. 
Crosby was treated after the attack for a fractured bone in his face, blindness in one eye, head and neck pain, two fractured fingers, and bruising on his arms and legs.
“We also want this [treated as] a hate crime because he ripped off my crucifix which was around my neck, it ended up in the bushes,” Crosby told The Daily Wire. “It was definitely a hate crime also, but these Baltimore City state attorneys are dragging their feet on everything.”
The Office of the State’s Attorney for Baltimore City told The Daily Wire that it does not comment on pending cases when reached for comment on if there were any plans to bring hate crime charges against Brice.
Crosby said that during the first trial, Brice’s lawyer accused the elderly pro-lifers of directing a racial slur at him, which he said helped to get the jury on his side. He said that he wasn’t allowed to respond to those allegations or point out that most of the babies they have saved over the years have been black. 
He also said the judge the first time around didn’t allow him to show his eye to the jurors. This time he said his representative plans to bring an eye doctor and a shock trauma doctor to testify about the extent of his injuries. 
Since the day of attack, Crosby and Schaefer have continued to return to the Planned Parenthood where Crosby says they have had their lives threatened numerous times. He says that he has contacted the police, but they tell him that the threats against him are protected speech.
Now, just days before Brice heads to trial again, Crosby is convinced that there is no &#8220;equal protection under the law in Baltimore City.&#8221;

Beaten Pro-Lifer Says Baltimore Is ‘Dragging Its Feet’ Bringing Him Justice

Baltimore

Planned Parenthood

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., head of the Department of Health and Human Services, told lawmakers on Wednesday that he has requested the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) do a &#8220;complete review&#8221; of the abortion pill.
The announcement was welcomed by pro-life conservatives, who previously wondered how RFK Jr., a former Democrat, would respond to abortion-related issues, having previously said that while he believes every abortion is a “tragedy,” the issue is “more nuanced and complex.”
During Wednesday&#8217;s Senate committee hearing, Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) asked RFK Jr. if he was aware of a new analysis from the Ethics &amp; Public Policy Center indicating that mifepristone is many times more dangerous than the FDA says on the label for the abortion pill, and he said he was.
&#8220;It&#8217;s alarming,&#8221; RFK Jr. told Hawley.
&#8220;Clearly, it indicates that at the very least the label should be changed,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I&#8217;ve asked Marty Makary, who&#8217;s the director of the FDA, to do a complete review and to report back.&#8221;
RFK Jr. also said that he did not yet have a sense of the timeline of the review.

This can include hemorrhaging, needing a blood transfusion, an emergency room visit, and even deadly conditions like sepsis.
That is about 22 times higher than what the FDA listed on its label for the brand Mifeprex in 2023. The FDA <a href="https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2023/020687Orig1s025Lbl.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cited</a> clinical studies saying less than 0.5% of women suffered “serious adverse reactions” to mifepristone.
Meanwhile, more than one in 20 women need a second abortion attempt after the abortion pill fails, another analysis of insurance claim data <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/more-than-1-in-20-women-need-second-abortion-attempt-after-abortion-pill-fails?author=Mairead+Elordi&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=0&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=More+Than+1+in+20+Women+Need+Second+Abortion+Attempt+After+Abortion+Pill+Fails" target="_blank" rel="noopener">released</a> this week showed.
&#8220;We&#8217;re very thankful for this announcement from Secretary Kennedy. We encourage the FDA to conduct its own study to best ensure that women are given an honest and clear presentation of the dangers of the abortion pill,&#8221; Ryan Anderson, President of the Ethics and Public Policy Center and one of the authors of the analysis told The Daily Wire.
The two-pill chemical abortion regimen — mifepristone, usually followed by misoprostol — aims to end the life of the unborn baby and expel it from the woman’s uterus. However, the drugs sometimes fail to expel all the fetal tissue, which can cause life-threatening complications.
A few months before Roe v. Wade was overturned, the FDA scrapped the requirement that women must obtain abortion pills in person from a healthcare provider, allowing them to get them online through the mail.
“We applaud Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for his swift directive to FDA for a thorough study of the dangerous chemical abortion pill,” Doug Truax, founder of Foundation for the Restoration of America, which put out another report on the abortion pill&#8217;s &#8220;serious adverse events&#8221; told The Daily Wire.
“The health and safety of women is at risk and we can’t allow ideology to trump science,” Truax said.
Last year, Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ben-shapiro-challenges-rfk-jr-on-abortion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">challenged</a> Kennedy Jr. on abortion during an interview, telling him that abortion is “not just a tragedy. It’s a crime against the child because the child has an independent interest. What do you say to that?”
“I say that I understand that position, and I don’t agree with it,” Kennedy responded, adding that he believes “the solution of having the state come in and dictate choices that a woman is making is not a good solution.”
RFK Jr. appeared before both Senate and House committees on Wednesday to defend President Donald Trump&#8217;s proposed budget cuts to the HHS, which RFK Jr. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/us/politics/rfk-jr-hhs-overhaul-hearing.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> would be &#8220;painful&#8221; but would save money “without impacting critical services.”

The South Carolina Supreme Court rejected an effort from Planned Parenthood to water down the state&#8217;s pro-life heartbeat law, ruling on Wednesday that the state could enforce its protections for unborn babies at around six weeks of development.
In its decision, the court ruled against Planned Parenthood&#8217;s claim that the law could only protect babies at around nine weeks of development, claiming that was when a baby&#8217;s heartbeat can first be detected. The court said that the legislature had intended to protect unborn babies at around six weeks, when heart activity can first be detected, ruling against the abortion giant.

&#8220;While we do not frame our holding today in the shorthand terms of a number of weeks, the biologically identifiable moment in time we hold is the &#8216;fetal heartbeat&#8217; under the 2023 Act occurs in most instances at approximately six weeks of pregnancy,&#8221; the majority <a href="https://www.sccourts.org/media/opinions/HTMLFiles/SC/28280.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>.
The question the justices were addressing was: &#8220;at what point in a woman&#8217;s pregnancy does a &#8216;fetal heartbeat&#8217; occur&#8221; as defined by South Carolina&#8217;s 2023 Fetal Heartbeat and Protection From Abortion Act. The court defined this as when a &#8220;medical professional may objectively determine to have occurred by the existence of the &#8216;cardiac activity&#8217; of electrical impulses detectable as a &#8216;sound&#8217; with diagnostic medical technology such as a transvaginal ultrasound device.&#8221;

&#8220;Time and time again, we have defended the right to life in South Carolina, and time and time again, we have prevailed,&#8221; said South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster. &#8220;Today&#8217;s ruling is another clear and decisive victory that will ensure the lives of countless unborn children remain protected and that South Carolina continues to lead the charge in defending the sanctity of life.&#8221;
“This ruling is a resounding win for the rule of law and protecting the unborn in South Carolina,” said Attorney General Alan Wilson. “Today’s decision reaffirms that our elected legislators, not out-of-state interest groups, hold the power to shape South Carolina’s policies in accordance with the values of its people.”
The Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America organization also praised the decision from the court.
“Planned Parenthood has failed in attempting to rewrite the science of human development to further their agenda for more abortions and more profit,&#8221; said SBA Pro-Life America Political Director Caitlin Connors. &#8220;The level of science denial from this abortion giant that receives $800 million in taxpayer funding annually should astound South Carolinians who overwhelmingly re-elected Gov. Henry McMaster and state Republicans after they enacted the heartbeat law.&#8221;

At first glance, it may look like abortion access in America is shrinking.
Since 2020, dozens of brick-and-mortar abortion facilities have closed. It might be easy to assume this means fewer abortions are happening. But the numbers tell a different — and more urgent — story.
According to research from the University of California’s Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health, there were 758 brick-and-mortar abortion facilities in the United States in 2020. By 2023, that number had dropped slightly to 741.
But what’s been largely overlooked is this: 226 new virtual abortion “clinics” opened during that same period. The net result? There are now more access points for abortion in America than at any time in the past decade — 967 in total.
This dramatic shift is having real consequences. The Guttmacher Institute, which supports abortion access, estimates there were over 1 million abortions in 2023 — up from 930,160 in 2020. Telemedicine abortions now account for roughly 20% of all abortions nationwide, and organizations like Aid Access and Plan C offer mail-order abortion pills with little to no medical oversight or regulation.
This is not just a policy debate — it’s a public health crisis in the making.
Over the past several years, the Food and Drug Administration has steadily loosened the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) requirements for mifepristone, one of the drugs used in chemical abortions. What used to require in-person dispensing and medical supervision now often happens without an ultrasound, without lab work, and without an in-person medical visit.
In the world of mail-order abortions, many women never see a doctor before, during, or after the abortion.
This systematic removal of actual healthcare from the abortion process has consequences. Women may be further along in pregnancy than they realize — something only an ultrasound can confirm. They may have undiagnosed ectopic pregnancies or other medical complications that can be fatal if the abortion pill is taken. They may hemorrhage, suffer infection, or be left alone in a moment of real crisis with no medical professional to perform emergency care.
No legitimate area of medicine is allowed to operate this way. If a woman miscarried at home, she would be told to seek prompt medical care. But in the case of abortion, the prevailing approach is increasingly to mail a few pills and send a woman on her way — with no verification that she’s even a candidate for the drug, and no one to follow up with her if something goes wrong.
Meanwhile, the abortion industry continues to innovate — not to offer better care, but to make abortions more accessible and less visible. Clinics in permissive states are multiplying. Pro-abortion organizations are funding interstate travel. Online abortion pill networks continue to grow, many of them operating outside the regulations of state or federal officials.
So what does this mean for those of us working to support women facing unexpected pregnancies?
It means we must meet women where they are — online, on their phones, in the quiet of their uncertainty.
Pregnancy help organizations, long known for offering compassionate care and real alternatives to abortion, are rising to the challenge. Many are adapting to this new landscape by offering virtual consultations, telehealth services, and chat-based support through national hotlines. In fact, over the past year alone, the number of pregnancy help organizations offering telehealth has <a href="https://www.heartbeatinternational.org/lifetrends" target="_blank" rel="noopener">grown by 172%</a>.
This isn’t just about keeping pace with change — it’s about ensuring that women know they still have real choices and about keeping them safe. While abortion providers invade digital spaces with minimal accountability, pregnancy help centers are doing the hard work of offering personalized care — often at no cost — along with life-affirming solutions like housing, medical services, and material support for mothers and babies.
The battleground has shifted. But so has the movement that exists to walk with women through one of the most vulnerable seasons of their lives.
We cannot afford to assume that a decrease in physical abortion facilities means the need for pregnancy help is any less urgent. If anything, the need is growing — because the silence and secrecy of the digital abortion era leave many women more isolated than ever before.
That’s why innovation and compassion must go hand in hand. In a world where abortion is a click away, the vital human connection offered by pregnancy help should be as well.

More than one in 20 women need a second abortion attempt after the abortion pill fails, a new analysis of insurance claim data shows.
Over 5% of women had to undergo a repeat abortion attempt within 45 days of taking mifepristone, indicating that the first mifepristone abortion attempt failed, <a href="https://eppc.org/publication/the-abortion-pill-harms-womeninsurance-data-reveals-repeated-abortionattempts-due-to-high-failure-rate/">according to an analysis</a> from the Ethics and Public Policy Center released Monday. The Center analyzed insurance claims data from 865,727 mifepristone abortions between 2017 and 2023.
A total of 45,498 women needed a second abortion attempt to complete their abortions after mifepristone failed, the data show. Of those women, 24,563 needed a surgical abortion procedure. Nearly 7,000 women underwent both a second medication abortion attempt and a surgical abortion attempt after their first mifepristone attempt failed, the analysis found.
This is the latest evidence that advocates have misconstrued the safety and efficacy of the abortion pill. An <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/abortion-pill-22-times-more-dangerous-than-fda-claimed-new-study-says?author=Mairead+Elordi&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=7&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Abortion+Pill+22+Times+More+Dangerous+Than+FDA+Claimed%2C+New+Study+Says" target="_blank" rel="noopener">analysis</a> released last month found that more than one in 10 women experienced a “serious adverse event” after taking the mifepristone abortion pill in 2023. This can include hemorrhaging, needing a blood transfusion, an emergency room visit, and even deadly conditions like sepsis.
That is about 22 times higher than what the FDA listed on its label for the brand Mifeprex in 2023. The FDA <a href="https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2023/020687Orig1s025Lbl.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cited</a> clinical studies saying less than 0.5% of women suffered “serious adverse reactions” to mifepristone.
The two-pill chemical abortion regimen — mifepristone, usually followed by misoprostol — aims to end the life of the unborn baby and expel it from the woman’s uterus. However, the drugs sometimes fail to expel all the fetal tissue, which can cause life-threatening complications.
Nearly 14% of women experience either a serious adverse event or repeat abortion attempt after taking the abortion pill, Monday&#8217;s analysis found. The report&#8217;s authors concluded that the FDA should immediately reinstate the stronger patient safety protocols it previously had in place for mifepristone.
A few months before Roe v. Wade was overturned, the FDA scrapped the requirement that women must obtain abortion pills in person from a healthcare provider, allowing them to obtain them online through the mail.
The FDA should also mandate reporting of the abortion pill&#8217;s side effects and &#8220;reconsider its approval altogether,&#8221; concluded the analysis&#8217; co-authors, Ryan Anderson, President of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, and Jamie Bryan Hall, the Center&#8217;s Director of Data Analysis.
&#8220;Our real-world data represents the actual experiences of women who take the abortion pill in the U.S. today,&#8221; the authors told The Daily Wire.
&#8220;These women may have preexisting health conditions and may not receive proper care before, during, or after the abortion. The women recruited into the clinical trials were relatively young and healthy, and they received a carefully controlled regimen of care. Frequent in-person visits would have enabled doctors to diagnose and treat any side effects earlier, before they could become serious. This is how it should be for every woman!&#8221; they said.
&#8220;This is why it&#8217;s so important for the FDA, at a minimum, to reinstate its original safety protocols, which more closely resemble the conditions of a clinical trial,&#8221; the authors said. &#8220;Both proponents and opponents of legalized abortion should be able to support this move to protect women&#8217;s health.&#8221;
Anderson and Hall also emphasized that pro-life laws are not to blame for complications from the abortion pill, as some abortion advocates have claimed.
&#8220;Those who blame the failures of the abortion pill on pro-life laws are deeply mistaken, if not downright dishonest. Every woman should seek medical care in an emergency, and every doctor should provide life-saving care without fear of reprisal,&#8221; they said.
Medication abortions are far more common than surgical abortions. Medication abortions made up 63% of all abortions in 2023, up from 31% in 2014, <a href="https://www.guttmacher.org/2024/03/medication-abortion-accounted-63-all-us-abortions-2023-increase-53-2020" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute.
The abortion pill is likely the main factor driving up the country’s total number of abortions in recent years, even in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Abortion advocates have argued that the abortion pill should be more available to order online now that some Republican-led states ban abortion.
Mifepristone was originally approved by the FDA in 2000.

More Than 1 in 20 Women Need Second Abortion Attempt After Abortion Pill Fails

I have spent a lot of time covering psychiatric drugs like SSRIs. The problem with these drugs is that they&#8217;re incredibly potent, potentially dangerous, and they effect the mind in ways that the doctors prescribing them don&#8217;t fully understand. And all of these problems are compounded by the fact that they are increasingly easy to obtain. In fact, as the problems with psychiatric medications become more evident, the barriers to access them only become lower. It seems that things should be working the opposite way. But that&#8217;s how it goes now. If you want to get a highly potent, dangerous, mind altering drug, you can. In fact, you probably don&#8217;t even have to leave your house.
This trend is becoming more and more common with an ever increasing array of drugs. They are very easy to get, there is very little oversight, and you don&#8217;t have to leave your house to obtain them. This is a major problem that will require all kinds of legislation to fix. But there are some steps we can, and must, take immediately to address the problem of fraudulent, life-altering drugs being handed out in large quantities to young people, basically on demand. One of those steps is to defund some of the largest distributors of these life-altering drugs, which is something that should&#8217;ve happened a long time ago.
If we can’t ban these people from operating outright, then at the very least, we should stop giving them money and tax breaks. What&#8217;s happening is a genuine crisis — and it&#8217;s not limited to SSRIs. It extends to a whole host of other drugs as well. And a new investigation by Live Action, the pro-life nonprofit, has just brought renewed urgency to this crisis, and how completely out-of-control the problem really is.
Here is part of an undercover investigation by Live Action, where they contacted various Planned Parenthood locations posing as a 16-year-old girl. And in these conversations, Live Action&#8217;s 16-year-old girl requests &#8220;gender-affirming care,&#8221; including cross-sex hormones. And Planned Parenthood responds by saying this is completely fine. They say they&#8217;ll do it virtually, over Zoom or something like that. And then they suggest that, if the girl goes to a clinic in-person, she doesn&#8217;t need to be accompanied by her mother in the examination room. Watch:

To put things in context, Planned Parenthood is the leading abortion mill in the country. They commit roughly 40% of the abortion in this country, all by themselves. And they receive something like $700 million from taxpayers every year.
<h3><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/mws-ep-1593-member-exclusive?elementPosition=0&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+Show+Episodes+Carousel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show</a></h3>
So what exactly is that money buying, aside from abortions and irreversible drugs for children? According to Live Action, citing various investigations, it&#8217;s allowing Planned Parenthood to traffic in human body parts, commit all kinds of health code and privacy violations, and engage in anti-white racism at all levels of its operation. The entire report is available online if you want to view it, and you should. I will simply highlight this one section in particular:
<blockquote>At least 40,000 patients went to Planned Parenthood for &#8216;gender affirming care&#8217; in 2023 alone, a number that has risen tenfold since 2017. The largest proportion, about 40 percent, were 18-to-22-year-olds.</blockquote>
According to Live Action, 45 out of Planned Parenthood&#8217;s 49 affiliated facilities provide this so-called &#8220;care,&#8221; and Planned Parenthood is now the second-largest provider of so-called &#8220;gender-affirming hormones&#8221; in the United States.
The report continues:
<blockquote>Planned Parenthood targets minors for gender-affirming care by disseminating pro-transgender ideology online and in schools. It has also stated that it would like to expand its gender-affirming care to a greater number of minors.</blockquote>
The report cites a video from Planned Parenthood, in which the organization claims that puberty blockers are, &#8220;like a stop sign&#8221; that pauses puberty without any potential side-effects. Planned Parenthood also provides sex education materials to elementary schools, according to this report, including, &#8220;information about puberty blockers and graphics of pubic hair art.&#8221;
In some cases, Live Action notes that Planned Parenthood was caught referring a 14-year-old undercover actor for &#8220;gender-affirming&#8221; treatments at another organization, so that he could hide his so-called &#8220;transition&#8221; from his parents. It goes on and on. Every page of this report is extremely difficult to read, and it&#8217;s all very damning. Even if you put all of the baby murder to the side — which you can&#8217;t, because that&#8217;s still obviously the most evil thing this organization does — but even if you did somehow forget about that, Planned Parenthood still remains one of the most evil organizations in the country. Their explicit goal is to permanently alter the lives of young people with surgeries and hormones, long before they&#8217;re able to consent to anything like this. And as the report outlines, half the time, they don&#8217;t even follow their own protocols, as limited as they are.
What&#8217;s left unanswered, in all of this, is why Planned Parenthood still receives hundreds of millions of dollars in federal funding. Republicans control Congress and the White House. So why the hell are we still sending so much money to these butchers? To be clear, as Live Action&#8217;s report outlines, you probably don&#8217;t even need legislation to stop this funding. There are dozens of violations listed in this report, which documents Planned Parenthood&#8217;s issues with patient privacy, fraud, trafficking of fetal remains, and so on. All of these problems, by themselves, are grounds for an executive order shutting down the funding immediately. But that hasn&#8217;t happened yet. And Congress hasn&#8217;t done anything either. Nor have they done anything about the mass prescription of SSRIs.
To be clear, Planned Parenthood should be forcible shut down, by law. The whole organization should be banned and all of its executives and employees at every level of the company should be put on trial for crimes against humanity. There should be a Nuremberg for Planned Parenthood executives. But that is not likely to happen any time soon. There are a lot of things that should happen but won&#8217;t, and this is number one on that list. So defunding them is the bare minimum. It’s not even close to the full extent of what should be done to shut down these butchers and child abusers and bring them to justice. It&#8217;s just the most meager first step. It&#8217;s the step where we at least stop forcing Americans to fund these psychopaths. And yet we haven’t even done that. Republicans control the federal government and yet somehow we are still sending hundreds of millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood.
Why? What is the reason? What is the negative consequence of defunding them? The Left will be mad? The media will complain? The activists will shriek and sing protests songs in the street? That last thing is pretty painful, I admit. But is in any of that enough to override the great moral necessity of defunding an organization that kills and castrates children? Obviously not. Especially because the protesters will be shrieking anyway. The media will complain regardless. The Left will stay mad no matter what. They’re going to cry. We might as well give them something real to cry about.
That&#8217;s not to say the Republicans in Congress haven&#8217;t done anything at all. They&#8217;re technically showing up to work even though it&#8217;s not exactly ground-breaking stuff. But it&#8217;s well past time for elected Republican representatives, along with the White House, to take decisive action on the ghouls and butchers who call themselves healthcare providers. If we can defund NPR — and the White House says we can — then we can defund these abortionists too. And we can stop corporations from distributing psychoactive drugs like they&#8217;re candy, while we&#8217;re at it. This is what we voted for.

One of the most commonly prescribed abortion pharmaceuticals in the United States today is one of the most dangerous substances in the world, according to groundbreaking new research. Sadly, it&#8217;s not as polarizing a product as Ozempic or vaccines.
According to a <a href="https://eppc.org/news/largest-ever-study-of-abortion-pill-reveals-shocking-number-of-adverse-events/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bombshell new study</a> using real-world data, the abortion pill is physically wounding thousands of women per year.
When the Food &amp; Drug Administration approved the abortion pill – mifepristone or Mifeprex – it was on the basis that clinical trials had shown a serious adverse event rate of less than 0.5%.
But the new research, which analyzed 865,727 mifepristone abortions between 2017-2023, found a serious adverse event rate of 11%. That&#8217;s twenty-two times higher than the figure cited on the drug label.
These adverse events are not mere side effects. Hemorrhage, sepsis, infection, cardiac distress, and incomplete abortions are part of the laundry list of complications suffered by women within 45 days of taking the abortion pill.
The figures come from an all-payer health claims database. Insurance companies don&#8217;t pay for things that didn&#8217;t happen. The research was published by the Ethics &amp; Public Policy Center, which has promised more is to come.
If these serious adverse events were caused by a common antibiotic or a diabetes medication, media outrage and mass public uproar would ensue. 
Reckless conduct in the service of political ideology got us here. In the final year of the Obama administration, the Department of Health and Human Services watered down safety regulations. They allowed the abortion pill to be prescribed by non-physicians, taken at home away from the watchful eye of medical professionals, and extended the maximum gestational age at which a child could be aborted from seven weeks to ten weeks.
The Biden administration took this ghoulish crusade a step further. In 2023, they removed virtually all safeguards to the extent that a woman can now order abortion pills online, take them at home, risk bleeding out, flush her aborted child down the toilet, and go it alone, all without ever seeing a doctor.
It is up to the new Trump administration to restore some sanity. President Trump has been notoriously fickle on abortion, as has his HHS secretary, Robert F. Kennedy.

Both Kennedy and newly-installed FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary have expressed a commitment to prioritizing women&#8217;s safety in regard to the abortion pill. Upon questioning from Sen. Steve Daines of Montana during his confirmation hearings, Kennedy promised to study the abortion pill and take action on any new developments. Dr. Makary has expressed similar rhetoric, although he <a href="https://www.semafor.com/article/04/24/2025/fdas-marty-makary-no-plans-to-pull-abortion-pill-mifepristone">stated</a> in late April that he had &#8220;no plans&#8221; to restrict the pill until the data could be examined thoroughly.
The question now is whether health and safety will take priority over abortion absolutism. There are too many women suffering silently for the administration to do nothing.

The Trump administration on Monday moved to dismiss a challenge to the Food and Drug Administration’s lax abortion pill guidelines, which have opened the floodgates of dangerous mail-order abortions. 
The Justice Department said in a 15-page court filing that a suit from the Republican attorneys general of Missouri, Idaho, and Kansas challenging the FDA’s decision was not filed in the right location and should be dismissed. The red states argue that the FDA overlooked the dangers of the abortion pill when it relaxed guidelines in recent years to allow for the pills to be shipped through the mail. 
In his <a href="https://ecf.txnd.uscourts.gov/doc1/177117665842" target="_blank" rel="noopener">filing</a>, Acting Assistant Attorney General Yaakoth Roth mirrored the Biden administration&#8217;s position, which defended the FDA’s loose abortion pill regulations. He argued that the states’ “claims have no connection” to the U.S. District Court for Northern Texas, where the suit was filed.
The Trump administration&#8217;s decision will likely anger Republicans and pro-life advocates. As The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/how-leftist-networks-flood-red-states-with-risky-abortion-pills-with-no-consequences" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>, there are networks of leftist activists who ship abortion pills, often unregulated ones manufactured in foreign countries, into states where abortion is illegal. These networks send pills to anyone with access to a credit card and mailing address for less than $100. Purported users of the abortion pills often report on social media horror stories of doing the procedures, and recount stories of flushing large chunks of aborted babies down the toilet.
Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser urged the Trump administration to take steps to reign in the abortion pill, pointing out the documented dangers.
&#8220;At a minimum, the Trump administration should reverse the Biden FDA’s reckless nationwide mail-order <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/16/health/abortion-pills-fda.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/16/health/abortion-pills-fda.html&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1746638991803000&amp;usg=AOvVaw3irGakSxGjGmPUIRCB_tSS">abortion drug policy</a>,&#8221; she told The Daily Wire. &#8220;We urge the Trump administration to reinstate basic measures that require real medical oversight. Women and girls deserve better than high-risk drugs with no in-person doctor, no follow-up and no accountability.&#8221;
&#8220;This isn’t health care,&#8221; Dannenfelser added. &#8220;It’s harm.”
The case originated after the Republican attorneys general had interceded in another case brought by pro-life doctors concerned about the FDA guidelines on mifepristone and other abortion drugs. That case was later <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/supreme-court-rejects-challenge-to-abortion-pill-in-setback-for-pro-life-movement" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dismissed</a> by the Supreme Court, which said the doctors lacked standing, and the Republican officials revised their complaint. 
“At bottom, the States cannot keep alive a lawsuit in which the original plaintiffs were held to lack standing, those plaintiffs have now voluntarily dismissed their claims, and the States’ own claims have no connection to this District,” Roth wrote. “The States are free to pursue their claims in a District where venue is proper.”
Roth also wrote that the states failed &#8220;to identify any actual or imminent controversy over whether any of their laws are preempted.&#8221;
Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey responded on Tuesday to the filing by pointing to evidence showing the established dangers of so-called self-managed abortions.
&#8220;Beyond a reasonable doubt, the evidence clearly establishes that mifepristone poses a grave risk to the health of women. The most recent study says 1 in 9 women who ingest this powerful chemical will end up in the ER or worse,&#8221; Bailey posted on X. &#8220;Regardless of which venue is proper for a lawsuit, Missouri will always fight to protect the health and safety of women and demand the FDA acknowledge the data and reinstate critical regulations to prevent the needless loss of human life.&#8221;
At the heart of the challenge to the FDA was the out-of-control abortion pill black market that has cropped up following the end of Roe v. Wade.
&#8220;Removing the in-person dispensing protections enabled a 50-state mail order abortion drug economy—a world where countless women in Plaintiff States receive abortion drugs by mail later in pregnancy with no in-person care and go the emergency room in Plaintiffs’ States,&#8221; the Republican AGs wrote in their suit.

In addition to ending the life of the unborn child, the abortion pill often has health consequences for the mother. One <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/abortion-pill-22-times-more-dangerous-than-fda-claimed-new-study-says" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recent study</a> found that over 11% of women had a &#8220;serious adverse&#8221; medical event after taking the pill, including things like hemorrhaging and sepsis.
Another study from the pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/scholars-continue-fight-against-journal-over-retraction-of-studies-showing-danger-of-abortion-pill" target="_blank" rel="noopener">found</a> that the rate of emergency room visits following chemical abortions had spiked 500% from 2002-2015. That study was later redacted for political reasons ahead of the Supreme Court hearing on the abortion pill, the study&#8217;s authors say.
Reacting to the news of the move to dismiss, Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO), an outspoken pro-life advocate, said that the administration was making a &#8220;serious mistake.&#8221;

‘Serious Mistake’: Trump Admin Moves To Dismiss Challenge To Mail-Order Abortion Pills

Department of Justice

“Frasier” actor Kelsey Grammer is reflecting on his unborn children who were killed during abortions as part of his new memoir out on Tuesday, titled “Karen: A Brother Remembers.” The title refers to the rape and murder of Grammer’s sister in 1975 when she was 18. 
“I know that many people do not have a problem with abortion, and though I have supported it in the past, it eats away at my soul,” the 70-year-old TV star wrote, per <a href="https://pagesix.com/2025/05/06/celebrity-news/pro-life-kelsey-grammer-reveals-ex-aborted-their-son/">Page Six</a>.
Grammer writes that his girlfriend got pregnant in 1974 while he was attending The Juilliard School. “I never wanted her to accuse me of being unwilling to have the child, but I also did not plead with her to save his life.”  
“I supported the idea that a woman has the right to do what she wants with her own body. I still do. But it was hard for me. Still is.”
“A child’s right to exist? Of course. Life,” he added.
“Six months before my sister was slaughtered, I volunteered to have my son’s body vacuumed out of his mother’s. I regret it,” Grammer said in the memoir, adding that he’s critical of “so-called doctors, who have executed generations of children in this manner.”
“I have no idea how they call themselves doctors. But I offer no controversy,” he wrote.
Next, the “Frasier” star recalled a situation where his current wife, Kate, was pregnant with twins and was advised by doctors to abort one child to save the other when his unborn son’s sac ruptured in utero. The couple decided to go ahead with an abortion of one twin.
Later, Grammer’s daughter, Faith, was born healthy.
“We killed him. Our son. We killed our son so Faith might live. We wept as we watched his heart stop. Saw it. It is the greatest pain I have known,” he wrote.
Grammer has been married four times and has seven children and one grandchild. He is among the few major Hollywood celebrities who openly support conservatives and Republican political candidates, including President Donald Trump.
