Description

The Supreme Court has extended an order permitting access by mail to mifepristone, a drug used in nearly two-thirds of abortions as well as miscarriage care. Only Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito noted any dissents. The temporary order overrules the conservative Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, which sought to block access to the drug nationwide. Dr. Regina Davis Moss, the CEO and president of In Our Own Voice: National Black Women's Reproductive Justice Agenda, unpacks the significance of the decision. Adam Klasfeld of All Rise News hosts.

Strange but predictable that the Maga cult would go after Mephispristone, used safely by millions if WOMEN, while Viagra continues to kill men at a higher rate!?

I don’t care if the court made a correct interim decision. The truth is, WTF is a court even doing dealing with medical care issues to begin with? It has nothing to do with them. It should be left to science, research, and health authorities like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the United States and from there between a doctor and patient. Leave this to subject matter experts, not the courts.

They absolutely need to keep their hands out of Women’s Heath.

Real talk: the TEMPORARY mifepristone ruling is great, but it’s also a distraction from the absolute BS ruling on Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. They’re using the “significant questions” doctrine to overrule government agencies enforcing regulations that aren’t explicitly spelled out in legislation — yet SCOTUS, itself a government institution, has effectively granted itself the power to enforce its own rules despite no legislation explicitly granting that authority. In short: the SCOTUS is a bunch of illegitimate hypocrites saying, “Do as I say, not as I do.”

This is all a ploy to keep it out of the mid-terms as an issue. They will rule against it if they keep power. We already know this court can’t be trusted.

We women should not have to fall on our knees and thank them for allowing women accessibility to women's health care rights.

EVERYONE.....Go and confirm your VOTING STATUS today. Don't wait until Midterms or November. Make a plan for any of your disenfranchised neighbors/friends who have been/are being gerrymandered out.

SCOTUS should be able to be sued when they arent doctors but are making decisions that affect health care decisions. They arent qualified to say what should happen in medical situations. They are judges, not doctors.

When are you people going to realize that we are in an abusive relationship with SCOTUS? Their rulings are a trauma bond. check it, I dare you.

They destroy our democracy one ruling at a time and then throw these scraps thinking it makes up for it. The people aren't falling for it.
