“Marty is a great guy. He's a friend of mine. He's a wonderful man, and he's going to be off and the assistant, the deputy, is taking over temporarily,” Trump said. “He was having some difficulty, you know, he's a great doctor, and he was having some difficulty. But he's going to go on and he's going to do well.”
The anti-abortion Slenderman that is Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has spent much of his political career trying to dismantle abortion rights. But he's spent the past year obsessively amplifying a bogus "study" from the far-right Ethics and Public Policy Center (which is listed as an advisor under Project 2025), which published false findings about the abortion pill, mifepristone, having "adverse effects" on women.
At the end of August, Texas and Florida's attorneys general asked to join GOP attorneys general from Missouri, Idaho, and Kansas in a yearslong lawsuit targeting mifepristone - breathing new life into the litigation attacking the most widely used method of abortion in the United States.
The abortion pill mifepristone has been proven safe by millions of Americans over 25 years, and its restrictions threaten access particularly for vulnerable populations.
