My fail is Face the Nation's incredibly
00:00:04
odd framing of a question to Senator
00:00:07
Bill Cassidy this past Sunday.
00:00:09
>> CBS has confirmed that there are no
00:00:11
ongoing safety studies into the abortion
00:00:14
drug mythopristone. This was despite the
00:00:16
Trump administration saying they were
00:00:18
going to conduct one. Um, and
00:00:21
anti-abortion groups want this review to
00:00:24
take place. I saw a letter the FDA
00:00:26
commissioner sent to you last week
00:00:29
claiming they are reviewing the
00:00:30
evidence. Do you believe him? And and if
00:00:34
not, what are you doing about it?
00:00:36
>> That is nothing but whitewashed Sunday
00:00:40
morning
00:00:42
Vaseline over wholesale misogyny. The
00:00:46
framing of the question, has the FDA
00:00:49
conducted investigations? No, they
00:00:51
haven't conducted investigations into
00:00:52
Advil or arythrammyosin either. Why?
00:00:56
Because this is an FDA approved drug
00:00:59
that the American College of of
00:01:01
Obstitricians and Gynecologists and
00:01:04
other leading medical organizations have
00:01:06
stated that mythopristone is an open
00:01:09
quote incredibly safe medication. But to
00:01:13
pretend this is about women's health
00:01:16
under the opice of trying to create
00:01:19
doubt around a very effective means of
00:01:23
bodily autonomy which is the definition
00:01:26
of women's health is just what the [ __ ]
00:01:30
are you thinking?
