The Abortion Access Report 1/22/2026
Yay Mifepristone! Boo Fake Clinics!
The news cycle is relentless, so we do the sorting for you. Below are today’s hand-picked abortion stories—what’s happening and why it matters.
The Headline: ‘The Moral Property of Women’: Mifepristone, Fibroids and the Stakes of Suppressed Science
TLDR:
💊Mifepristone: To Kill A Miracle Pill
Ms Magazine is doing a deep dive into the magical, wonderful, peer-reviewed world of mifepristone. The pill is more than just part of the medication abortion protocol. It’s EXTREMELY effective at treating fibroids, and has a TON of potential for treating ovarian and breast cancer, depression, autoimmune diseases, and more. But in the US, it’s damn near impossible to develop it for more uses cuz SOME PEOPLE are desperate to make it seem like Satan incarnate.
🧬How DOES It Work?
Mife blocks progesterone receptors, effectively stopping the process of pregnancy but ALSO blocking other negative shit progesterone can do, like growing fibroids or cancer cells. Early studies here showed massive improvements in fibroid symptoms, but because of Victorian vagilantes throwing fits, it became politically radioactive to study it further.
🌍The World Picked Up Our Slack
Other countries went ahead and did the damn thing and proved that mifepristone was a GREAT way to treat fibroids noninvasively and with little side effects. Meanwhile, we’re still over here, raw doggin’ preventable suffering cuz religious jabronis hold our healthcare hostage. Remember: Abortion bans don’t just block abortion, they block medicine, research, and RELIEF.
The Headline: Colorado to pay $6.1 million to settle lawsuit over abortion pill reversal ban
TLDR:
💸Colorado Has To Pay For Anti-Abortion Lies
Colorado is shelling out $6.1 million after a court blocked the state from enforcing laws against the dangerous and unproven “abortion reversal” protocol. You know, the NON-FDA-APPROVED anti-abortion invention that says you can stop an abortion if you just shoot someone up with progesterone. Apparently, it’s a First Amendment right to experiment on pregnant people.
⚖️ Rules for Thee But Not For Me
Fake clinics scream “freedom of speech” when they wanna lie, but actively work to make it impossible for doctors to provide REAL, EVIDENCE-BASED abortion care. Case in point: Mifepristone, one of the most studied drugs on the planet, is treated like contraband, while pushing deranged “abortion reversal” gets treated as a sacred right.
⚠️Beware Of The Fake Clinic
Make it make sense: there are endless restrictions to provide safe abortion care, but if you wanna coerce someone into pregnancy, go for it—it’s the wild west out there! So next time you are caught in a lie, just say it’s your religious freedom and keep doing it.
We will see you back here tomorrow!
