Official Headgear of the Republican Party

It appears that antiabortion activists are attempting to criminalize writing prescriptions for RU-486 via telemedicine.

This is some serious Margaret Atwood sh%$:

People in blue states might recognize the threat of Congress passing a nationwide abortion ban under a Republican president in, say, 2025—but two recent under-the-radar actions on abortion pills underscore that no zipcode is safe from Republicans post-Roe v. Wade.

In November, anti-abortion activists filed a lawsuit asking the federal courts to revoke the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of mifepristone, the first drug used in a medication abortion. Days later, a different group filed a citizen petition with the FDA in which it weaponized environmental regulations to argue that patients need to bag up the products of conception and return them to abortion providers to dispose of as medical waste.

………

The case was filed in a district with a particularly rogue Trump-appointed judge, Matthew Kacsmaryk—who’s so wild that he issued a ruling in 2021 forcing the Biden administration into negotiations with Mexico over border policy—and the appeals courts above that are the ultraconservative Fifth Circuit and the Supreme Court. The outcome does not look good. “It doesn’t take that much at this point [to get an anti-abortion ruling],” she said.

………

If Judge Kacsmaryk issues a nationwide ruling revoking the FDA’s approval of mifepristone, it would ban healthcare providers from prescribing it for abortion. (The drug is also sold as Korlym to treat Cushing’s syndrome.) Even people seeking care in states where abortion is still legal wouldn’t be able to get the pills from brick-and-mortar clinics or from telemedicine services. The only option would be Aid Access, based in Europe, or word-of-mouth networks. 

If that isn't enough for you, these activists are also looking at invoking the 1873 Comstock laws, which would have the effect of banning the discussion of abortion through the mail.  (The original's ban on contraception was repealed in 1971)

It would have the effect of banning shipment of supplies in support of all abortions across state lines, including surgical abortions, not just mifepristone.

These people are not the opposition, they are the enemy, and they should be treated as such.  There is no possibility of peace with the.
