Ohio Democratic lawmakers propose ‘Contraception Begins at Erection Act’
https://ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/...-erection-act/
A new bill in Ohio would make it a crime for men to ejaculate without intending to have a baby.
“You don’t get pregnant on your own,” state Rep. Anita Somani, D-Dublin, said.
This is the way libs

Mifeprostol can control otherwise catastrophic hemorrhaging during or after birth
Criminalizing emergency medicine is a bad, bad idea
States have long kept centralized databases to monitor prescriptions for potentially addictive drugs. Now, abortion pills are being monitored in the same way in some parts of the US.
Last May, Louisiana passed a law to monitor misoprostol and mifepristone, the two pills commonly used to induce abortions. The law reclassified the drugs as "controlled substances," a designation typically given to medications that carry the risk of abuse.https://www.businessinsider.com/abor...-health-2025-2Previously, obstetrician-gynecologists often carried misoprostol in their pockets for emergencies. Now, the medicine must be stored in locked cabinets.
Avegno told BI that clinicians across Louisiana have been running "time trials" to test how quickly they can retrieve misoprostol from those locked cabinets, bring it back to the patient, and administer it. In the case of severe postpartum hemorrhaging, mere minutes could be the difference between life and death.

Intimate partner violence drives women to abortion who otherwise might have their babies, btw
https://www.jezebel.com/researcher-s...-s-maha-agendaIn 2023, the National Domestic Violence Hotline reported that, in the first year since Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health, as abortion bans spread across the country, the number of calls they received about reproductive coercion doubled. In 2024, the Hotline published a survey of domestic violence victims who have experienced reproductive coercion, and 13% of respondents said abusive partners used or threatened violence while they were pregnant. It’s estimated that up to 22% of abortion patients recently experienced IPV, which played a role in why some of them sought abortion care.
“The thing that a lot of people find really shocking is that IPV kills more people during pregnancy and immediately after the baby is born than obstetric complications do,” Fielding-Miller said. “The science is not very good on the exact reasons why that is, and it’s certainly not very good on how to prevent it. But this is usually a time of increasing conflict and increasing attempts for partner control.”
the return of fugitive slave act type stuff is emblematic of Trump 2.0
stripping Americans of their basic rights is the clear aim
https://www.lawdork.com/p/alabama-ye...final-judgmentAlabama Attorney General Steve Marshall’s threats to prosecute abortion funds and other helping Alabamians to obtain abortions out of state are uncons utional, a federal judge declared on Monday in a first-of-its-kind ruling.
Marshall’s threats were uncons utional on multiple grounds, including the right to travel and the First Amendment, U.S. District Judge Myron Thompson ruled in a 131-page opinion.

creepy forced birth scenario

https://people.com/pregnant-woman-de...n-ban-11734676Georgia enacted a ban on abortion after six weeks gestation following the 2022 overturn of Roe v. Wade. According to law, “no abortion shall be performed if the unborn child has a detectable human heartbeat except (a) in the event of a medical emergency or medically futile pregnancy.”
In the state, “medical emergency” is defined as “a condition in which an abortion is necessary in order to prevent the death of the pregnant woman or the substantial and irreversible physical impairment of a major bodily function of the pregnant woman.”
However, Smith's case is considered a legal gray area and doctors reportedly told her family that because she is brain dead, and no longer considered at risk, they are legally required to maintain life support until the fetus reaches viability.
Newkirk said they were told that the doctors are not legally allowed to consider other options.
taking away women's rights in 2022 was the bellwether
official oppression is becoming more generalized in Trump 2.0
https://apnews.com/article/abortion-...bf31622fdb521aA Texas hospital that repeatedly sent a woman who was bleeding and in pain home without ending her nonviable, life-threatening pregnancy violated the law, according to a newly released federal investigation.
The government’s findings, which have not been previously reported, were a small victory for 36-year-old Kyleigh Thurman, who ultimately lost part of her reproductive system after being discharged without any help from her hometown emergency room for her dangerous ectopic pregnancy.
But a new policy the Trump administration announced on Tuesday has thrown into doubt the federal government’s oversight of hospitals that deny women emergency abortions, even when they are at risk for serious infection, organ loss or severe hemorrhaging.
denying women emergency care for complications of pregnancy is depraved indifference to life
shame on the Supreme Court for making women second-class citizens again
https://www.propublica.org/article/t...d-transfusionsBefore states banned abortion, one of the gravest outcomes of early miscarriage could easily be avoided: Doctors could offer a dilation and curettage procedure, which quickly empties the uterus and allows it to close, protecting against a life-threatening hemorrhage.
But because the procedures, known as D&Cs, are also used to end pregnancies, they have gotten tangled up in state legislation that restricts abortion. Reports now abound of doctors hesitating to provide them and women who are bleeding heavily being discharged from emergency rooms without care, only to return in such dire condition that they need blood transfusions to survive. As ProPublica reported last year, one woman died of hemorrhage after 10 hours in a Houston hospital that didn’t perform the procedure.
Now, a new ProPublica data analysis adds empirical weight to the mounting evidence that abortion bans have made the common experience of miscarriage — which occurs in up to 30% of pregnancies — far more dangerous. It is based on hospital discharge data from Texas, the largest state to ban abortion, and captures emergency department visits from 2017 to 2023, the most recent year available.
After Texas made performing abortions a felony in August 2022, ProPublica found, the number of blood transfusions during emergency room visits for first-trimester miscarriage shot up by 54%.
The number of emergency room visits for early miscarriage also rose, by 25%, compared with the three years before the COVID-19 pandemic — a sign that women who didn’t receive D&Cs initially may be returning to hospitals in worse condition, more than a dozen experts told ProPublica.
This ChatGPT answer elaborates on what I've basically been saying to right-wing extremists, who support abortion being made illegal for control (forcing religious beliefs via policy, etc.), as well as a deflection technique, to make themselves appear more moral than they really are, since some of them don't actually genuinely care if a fetus is aborted or not.
What I say in about two sentences, ChatGPT here elaborates on that:
Do Democrats actually support abortion when the baby is fully formed, etc? (I (Dod01) know I personally DO NOT, unless legitimate medical reasons arise)
Chatgpt answer:
This is a common and often misunderstood topic, so let’s break it down carefully and accurately:
Mainstream Democratic stance: Most Democratic politicians and voters support the right to access abortion, ESPECIALLY in the EARLIER STAGES OF PREGNANCY. The general position is that decisions about pregnancy should be left to a woman and her doctor, not the government. However, late-term abortions are MUCH RARER and are typically supported ONLY UNDER SPECIFIC, SERIOUS CIR STANCES.
On late-term abortions (sometimes referred to as “abortion up to birth”):
These procedures are EXTREMELY RARE, making up LESS THAN 1% of ALL ABORTIONS in the U.S.
When they DO happen, it's usually because of SEVERE FETAL ABNORMALITIES or SERIOUS RISKS TO THE HEALTH OR LIFE OF THE MOTHER.
Democrats who support the legal option for late-term abortion EMPHASIZE MEDICAL NECESSITY, NOT ELECTIVE REASONS.
Federal and state-level proposals from Democrats often include language to protect access to abortion through viability (roughly 23–24 weeks), and ALLOW LATER PROCEDURES ONLY WHEN MEDICALLY INDICATED.
So, while the right-wing often characterizes Democrats as supporting abortion “up to birth” for any reason, THAT PORTRAYAL DOESN'T REFLECT THE ACTUAL POLICY POSITIONS OR THE MEDICAL AND LEGAL REALITIES OF LATE-TERM ABORTION IN THE U.S.

As long as every Dem politician is too chicken to say they support limits on abortion we'll keep hammering them with it

Roe v Wade had limits, and libs were fine with that
