The Horror Since The End Of Roe V Wade

"We’re sharing another episode in our WITHpod 2024: The Stakes series, in which we choose specific areas of policy and talk to an expert about Trump and Biden’s records on the topic. This week, we’re discussing the seismic changes to reproductive rights over the past few years and both candidates’ stances. Jessica Valenti is an author and the founder of abortioneveryday.com. She joins WITHpod to discuss Trump creating the conditions for Roe v. Wade to be overturned during Biden’s term and what the overturning of it has meant, the status of abortion laws across states, why she feels hormonal birth control will be taken away from teenagers and more."

For example, this Fox News piece cites statistics by the discredited organization Crime Prevention Research Center.

"Parthenogenotes behave somewhat similarly to non-reproductive cells in our body. As the authors put it, the fact that pseudo-egg cells can reprogram sperm “blurs functional distinctions” between the different cell types (reproductive, non-reproductive, embryonic) in our body."
