Roe vs Wade Overturned

A Mexican Network is Smuggling Abortion Drugs to American Women

One day late last month, as new abortion restrictions began taking shape in US states, three Mexican women quietly crossed into the country at different points along the border, dozens of abortion-inducing pills hidden in their belongings.

The medication, an FDA-approved two-drug combination, had traveled across the interior of Mexico in the previous days, handled by an underground network of some 30 organizations in the country.

"The medications are arriving in a thousand ways, in creative ways, into the hands of women," said Verónica Cruz Sánchez, a prominent Mexican abortion activist whose group, Las Libres, helps run the network.

Abortions in Texas, including the distribution of medication abortion -- the most commonly used abortion method in the country -- have been effectively banned following the June high court ruling.

Though traveling to other states for an abortion is an option, it's not simple. Women who undergo the multi-day medication abortion treatment are often told to stay in the state where they began the process -- making such trips prohibitively expensive for some.

So the Mexican network's daring -- and illegal -- operation has emerged as one few avenues for women seeking abortions in south Texas and beyond, drawing on a model of activist-led abortion access that already exists in Mexico.

I’m in week 6 of a 10 week class to become a foster parent to take some of those unwanted kids into my home.
That's awesome. I work around the foster care system. It's a pretty sobering situation. Be prepared to see firsthand how messed up kids are that come from unwanted/dysfunctional situations. If you're taking infants, it's not as big of an issue. If you're taking kids over 2, be prepared to encounter serious trauma. If you're taking kids over 6, be prepared to encounter trauma that will possibly irreversibly impact their ability to become well-adapted later in life. Even more messed up is how often I see kids getting abused in foster homes to boot.

It is sad that we can’t trust the adults to be responsible…. There are a lot of kids that need help…. I’m a PT and did a clinical rotation at a childrens clinic…. It was sad all the abuse that those kids had taken.
 
Activist Tale of a 10-year-old Rape victim’s abortion looks like a Lie

“Not a whisper.” That was Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, saying that his search for a notorious child rape case in his state had turned up nothing.

That is odd given the vast coverage by the media, and even condemnation of the president of the United States, of the supposed case of a 10-year-old girl raped and impregnated in Ohio and forced to seek an abortion in Indiana.

What is even stranger than the utter lack of confirmation of the story is the utter lack of interest in confirming it — or in the welfare of the child herself. We have little proof that the story is true despite some significant legal and factual questions.

The story remains based entirely on an account from Dr. Caitlin Bernard, an obstetrician-gynecologist in Indianapolis. Indianapolis Star reporter Shari Rudavsky reported, “On Monday three days after the Supreme Court issued its groundbreaking decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, [Bernard], an Indianapolis obstetrician-gynecologist, took a call from a colleague, a child abuse doctor in Ohio.”

Bernard told her that immediately after “the Buckeye State had outlawed any abortion after six weeks, [she] had a 10-year-old patient in the office who was six weeks and three days pregnant.” She then explained how Bernard performed the abortion.

There has been an arrest made in the rape of the 10 year old girl. It would appear as though some people on the right were too quick to jump to a conclusion, and Dr. Caitlin Bernard is owed an apology.

Before this arrest was made, most of the right-wing was calling this story of a pregnant 10 year old girl who was raped, and had to travel from Ohio to Indiana to get an abortion, a lie.

@Franklin Pierce copied a column which only served to cast doubt on the story. Now that it has been proven to have actually happened, there is no mea culpa from the right at all. No admission that they had the story wrong, and no apologies have been made to either the 10 year old girl, her family or to Dr. Caitlin Bernard, who performed the abortion, and recounted the story. Dr. Bernard has been besieged with death threats which called her both an "activist" and a liar.

Suddenly, a state not making abortion exceptions for children, who were impregnated from a rape, has become an uncomfortable subject for Republicans, and they can no longer dismiss this story as being a lie told by a liberal activist. So what does the right-wing do now? They try to change this story from being about the 10 year old rape victim, and instead make it all about her attacker, so they can shift the subject away from the need for abortion exceptions over to the need for immigration reform.

This is all-too-typical of how the right-wing operates ... and it is disgusting.

Following the Dobbs decision, DICK’S announced a special employment benefit of “up to $4,000” in travel reimbursement for a employee, spouse, or dependent, along with one support person, to obtain an abortion. Although Title VII prohibits discrimination based on childbirth, DICK’S does not offer an equivalent paid benefit to a mother who has her baby.

It wasn’t just Republicans ..WaPo , Snoops , and any place you tried to find anything about it . Nobody could verify it , it was / is very strange .
Everybody makes mistakes but a professional journalist would admit when they were wrong. Tucker Carlson of Fox News called this story a lie on Tuesday night. He didn't mention the arrest at all last night. He had to have known about it by then.

All of those shows are opinion shows . Professional journalism died when they all moved out and away from the middle class , blue collar circles , and became elitists with Ivy League educations living in a bubble that pays extremely well .

Ah, shaddup already.

The left - no one more than you - still sift through the six year old ashes of "Russiaaah!" looking for a burning ember to fan. I haven't heard the first apology or retraction yet. Add Russian bounty, calling soldiers suckers, Alfa Bank, and a litany of Russia spin-off hoaxes generated by Clinton, DNC, and bureaucratic state and....well, shaddup already.

And you don't get this right, either:
The rape swept international headlines after Biden repeated the story twice during speeches at the White House. Biden cited the case as evidence that girls and women would have to travel out of red states to seek abortions following the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade last month.

“Ten years old. Raped. Six weeks pregnant. Already traumatized. Was forced to travel to another state,” Biden said. “Imagine being that little girl. Just — I’m serious — just imagine being that little girl.”

Despite Biden’s claims, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost noted that although Ohio has hugely limited abortion across the state, its law allows for medical emergencies which include cases like the 10-year-old girl who was raped.

“She did not have to leave Ohio to find treatment,” Yost said.

It was presidential propaganda that minor rape victims are being forced to have children. And it was a lie by a lawless administration who daily takesa shite on rule of law and the constitutional republic.

Do you really want to take Attorney General Dave Yost's word for anything, regarding this case? He told Jesse Watters of Fox News that there hadn't been a referral made to any police department in the state of Ohio concerning an alleged rape and pregnancy of a 10 year old girl, but that was inaccurate. Detective Jeffrey Huhn testified Wednesday morning at Gerson Fuentes' arraignment that Columbus police were made aware of the girl's pregnancy through a referral by Franklin County Children Services that was made by her mother on June 22nd. How did Yost not know that? He couldn't possibly have looked into it very closely ... either that, or he is lying. It looks like he just assumed it was liberal bull $hit, and never actually tried to get information about this matter.

How the hell did the Attorney General of Ohio not know that the Columbus Police Department was less than 24 hours away from making an arrest in a case involving the rape of a 10 year old girl, who became pregnant? Dave Yost does an interview on Fox News and tells Jesse Watters that he has looked into the allegations but "turned up nothing?" He didn't turn up a "whisper" ??? Seriously?

There is no damn way he had contacted the Columbus Police Department... but Columbus is easily the most populated city in the state of Ohio. It has a population of over 800,000 people... but Dave Yost hadn't contacted the Columbus Police Department to check on this case?!?!?!? Good frickin' lord!

Dave Yost looks like an a$$ right now.

It's not a matter of believing Yost or not. The kernel of the furor is whether a 10 y.o. rape victim had to leave OH for an abortion. Period. That isn't a matter of debate; the law either allows for her treatment or not.

According to Turley, it does: 10-year-old rape victim's abortion leaves a number of glaring questions

He also notes the lawless autocrat you couldn't wait to elect, used it to attack SCOTUS:
The president used the story to attack the Supreme Court and ask, “What century are they in?”

Even as insurrectionist Democrat leaders from Schumer and Pelosi on down have attacked and threatened the institution, the third branch of our republic repeatedly to delegitimize it. And even as the DOJ has refused to enforce federal law regarding the street insurrectionists rallying to Democrat leaders urging, attempting to overthrow the rule of law by intimidating the court.

Again, take a seat and zip it, Bub. You've no leg to stand on when it comes to truth and accuracy.

Now that you can't cover for the Propagandist in Chief claiming OH - and Repubs and SCOTUS generally - are forcing 10 yo rape victims to have children, this is your refuge? It reminds me of something....

Per the Columbus Dispatch, the mother of the 10 year old girl sought to have her daughter's abortion performed in Columbus, but they were turned away from the facility, and advised that they would have to leave the state for her to get an abortion. Could the mother have been given bad advice, or spoken to someone at a medical center who had misinformation? Possibly, but there are differing opinions about the legality of abortion in Ohio, and clearly there is room for confusion.

Who would've guessed abortionists are not lawyers? At any rate, everyone understands now that Biden propagandized it to smear the court and the right, to inflame 'da' struggle'. It's a darned shame Joe can't outright Uyghurize dissenters for the common, united good.

Yet.
The D.C. gulag and terrorizing parents is hella' good progress, though.
