Jessica Valenti

It is a war on women, folks.

And I know there's so much going on right now, and yet we don't talk about it enough, and that's why I invited our dear friend, Mini Timmaraju, from Reproductive Freedom for All, to talk about the latest in the ectopic pregnancy, um, deaths, as well, and, and the war on maternal health, frankly, and the latest concerning the litigation surrounding mifepristone, and then this insanity.

This insanity over testing our drinking water for abortion medication, as well as gender-affirming care medication.

It is insane, and yet welcome to Trump term 2.0.

And if you're in a state with an abortion ban, where providers are being punished for even having that conversation, how do you get to the diagnosis, right? So our, our, you know, the exemplary journalists at ProPublica, hats off to them once again for continually breaking these stories about rising deaths because of abortion bans.

They were careful and cautious not to link the two, but you and I both know it's an obvious link, and people should be outraged.

Uh, the number of people who've texted me this article, um- Women who are not active in our, in our movement, I actually do have some friends in my life who are not activists, [laughs] uh, who do send me things from time to time, "Have you seen this?"

Yep.

That one.

And then there was another one that Valenti, that one chick, I can't remember her, Jessica Valenti, that she ran.

And they started they were making fun of me.

The mean girls in school.

Like, that's kind of how I feel about this one.

It's, oh, you just read Jessica Valenti and now you're a feminist.

I don't know.

I don't hate the song.
