Hawley introduces bill to remove FDA approval for Mifepristone
BY ALEXANDER BOLTON - 03/11/26 5:29 PM ET
THE HILL
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) on Wednesday unveiled legislation to remove Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the use of mifepristone to end pregnancies, a bill that has quickly gained the support of major anti-abortion groups.
The legislation is an ambitious undertaking given the drug's widespread use in the United States, where an estimated 7.5 million women have used it to terminate pregnancies since the FDA approved its use in 2000. It accounted for 63 percent of all abortions in the U.S. in 2023.
But mifepristone, which when combined with the drug misoprostol can end pregnancies at up to 70 days of gestation, has become a major target of the anti-abortion movement. President Trump has sought to satisfy those anti-abortion voices by launching an FDA review of the drug, which has not been completed.
Hawley says the ability of doctors to prescribe the drug across state lines has led to rampant abuse and alleges that incidences of adverse health effects are far more common than the drug's maker, Danco Laboratories, has acknowledged.
While weβre worried about the war, the Epstein files, drone attacks in CAβ¦
Josh Hawley and Republicans are taking this moment to push legislation to strip FDA approval for Mifepristone
The assaults on Americans are coming from inside the house.

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say βSend meβ wherever we have a chance to make an impact.
How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

Zero Republicans call for Benghazi-style hearings. No rightwing media outrage. Republicans dined off of 4 dead Americans in Benghazi for a decade, and yet 3 dead Americans at the hands of a GOP president who promised no new wars gets no pushback. Fuck these fake outrage ghouls.

OCASIO-CORTEZ STATEMENT ON
TRUMP'S COMBAT OPERATIONS IN IRAN
"The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it will be catastrophic.
"Just this week, Iran and the United States were negotiating key measures that could have staved off war. The President walked away from these discussions and chose war instead.President Trump flippantly acknowledged the possibility of American casualties, stating "that often happens in war.'
"Mr. President: this was not an inevitability. This is a deliberate choice of aggression when diplomacy and security were within reach. Stop lying to the American people.
"Violence begets violence. We learned this lesson in Iraq. We learned this lesson in Afghanistan. And we are about to learn it again in Iran. Bombs have yet to create enduring democracies in the region and this will be no different.
"In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not. I will do my part to uphold our Constitution by voting YES on Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie's War Powers Resolution. Every member of Congress must join us in rejecting this aimless war.

They killed him.
It takes a lot to infuriate me and break my heart only because you have to be able to tolerate a lot when covering Trump and fascism and try your best to stay centered and hopeful.
This story I can't let go.
They chose to let him just die.

The most disturbing part is knowing ICE left a little girl alone and didnβt care.
Annabella was six years old when her dad was detained by ICE while he was picking up their food order. She stayed inside, waiting.
He never returned to her that day.

Howard Lutnick continued his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein even AFTER Epstein was convicted of sex trafficking minors. Then, Lutnick lied about it. Why is he still in our government?
He should be held accountable.
