Episode 117

The Abortion Pill Pandemic and Chalking it Up to Planned Parenthood

My wife Chelsea and I finish our two-part series on the abortion pill regimen (mifepristone and misoprostol).

We trace the history of the abortion pill from when it was first approved by the FDA to the current push to distribute it to the masses by mail.

The abortion industry claims the abortion pill is "safer than Tylenol." Of course we know it's not "safe" for the baby that's murdered, but we show from the statistics that it's not safe for women either. As the rate of deaths increased over the second decade, we expect deaths to skyrocket from mail-in abortions.

We finish the episode by talking about our recent experience doing sidewalk messages at a Planned Parenthood.
