Supreme Court ruling restricting abortion pill may help Biden and doom Trump this election [View all]

The American public is largely unaware and unprepared for an upcoming Supreme Court decision that could significantly reduce abortion access nationwide and create significant repercussions for the 2024 election. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court heard a case – the most significant since the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision overturning Roe v. Wade – challenging one of two drugs (mifepristone) used in medication abortion. The court, whose decision is likely to come this summer, may opt to restrict use of the drug or even revoke its approval by the Food and Drug Administration. Two-thirds of adults have heard nothing about the mifepristone case, which would affect the method used for more than 60% of abortions in the United States.


How bizarre to live in a world where abortion is what tilts an election and not the fact that we might lose our society, economy and civil rights completely. The media really sucks at their job now.
