🍿Bodily bureaucrats are losing their collective minds over the FDA’s approval of a generic abortion pill. Some anti-abortion lawmakers are so MIFFED that they are calling for department heads to roll. Grabbing the popcorn to watch the mifepristone man-baby meltdown. bit.ly/43buxRM

🎩A new study out of the UK dropped and lo and behold: it says that abortion medication is safe to use at home up to 12 weeks. So, USA: Stop mucking about and let’s crack on with EXPANDING access. Pip-pip cheerio, biiiiitch. bit.ly/4mNAewb

It’s #SerotoninSunday!
📋Planned Parenthood is fighting back against MO's feral demand for PATIENT RECORDS. They’re suing to stop it cuz NO ONE remembers checking a box that said “I’m totally chill with a bunch of cop-brained, anti-abortion lawmakers having my private medical records.” bit.ly/3Wvhqal

But Joshy, we get the big feewings, when you were just getting used to a department that caters to your every theocratic move, it can feel frustrating when actual science gets through. 😢

😤Why So Mad at Science?
Approving generic forms of existing medications is everyday stuff for the FDA. If the drug makers prove their medication is the same as a name brand, they HAVE to approve it… BY LAW.

And the legal challenge against it is still in motion. All, of course, driven by lies, manipulated data, and sheer Christian nationalist will.

⚔️Access v. Attacks
This approval is good news, but it won’t pull the breaks on the crusade to ban abortion medication. The zygote zealots have already successfully put pressure on the FDA to “review” the safety of a drug they literally JUST approved (lol).

a Missouri judge just approved ballot language for an amendment that’ll show up for 2026 voters that will fully resurrect the state’s abortion ban. Oh and sneaky bonus: the amendment also targets gender-affirming care for minors – good shit, Judge Dickzilla.

🗳️ Ballot Measure Fuckery
MEANWHILE, Missouri courts are straight-up handing anti-abobo extremists a roadmap and signing off on their deluluness. REGARDLESS of the MILLIONS of Missourians who showed up and voted for abortion access last year,

She's exercising her full on subpoena fetish by coming for Planned Parenthood and demanding they hand over patient records, communication about patient care, and clinic protocols. Planned Parenthood and the ACLU are pushing back HARD AF, but you heard it here, folks – MO's AG is NOT a girl’s girl.

Missouri’s new AG is wasting zero time proving she can out-bigot the previous Attorney General. Her first order of batshit business?

We love watching the fun police get their britches in a twist. They are BIG MAD that the FDA’s approval of a generic abortion pill has “shattered Trump’s pro-life façade.” What? His ONLY vibe is façade — bit.ly/3KG1xeI

and they’re willing to take down the entire maternal healthcare system with it. If they really cared so much about babies, they would give people every chance at a healthy pregnancy instead of cutting them off from medicine that makes giving birth easier.

🩺 Why This Matters
Paxton is obsessed with spreading fear across the Lone Star State by cutting off reproductive healthcare. Texas lawmakers want to make sure no one, not doctors, not doulas, not midwives, can even think about helping someone get an abortion—

❤️‍🩹 Abobo Is Healthcare, Not a Crime
Quick science lesson for those of us with shit-for-brains: Misoprostol has MANY uses, including HELPING people GIVE BIRTH. This is exactly what they do: vilify anything abortion-related. Talk about throwing the preborn human out with the bathwater.
