Pro-life: RFK Jr. for HHS
Let's recognize an ally when we see one
Pro-lifers have to get back to the strategy of achieving incremental gains in the political sphere.
When we’re making the case for protecting innocent life, we can’t compromise. Our arguments have to be based on principle and we must reject any nibbling on the edges — concessions about abortions in certain so-called hard cases.
But in politics, it behooves us to do what we can do. We have really made very little progress in the “hearts and minds” department. The removal of regulations for the abortion pill have normalized and mainstreamed abortion as a remedy for failed contraception. A woman doesn’t even have to go down to the clinic anymore.
As I’ve written before, the abortion pill is extremely dangerous to the woman — of course, it usually (but not always) kills the child. This fact has been hidden by a combination of censorship from the media, Google, and the successful deregulation of the poison.
It’s not going to be possible to ban the abortion pill outright at the moment, but putting medical oversight back in place will go a long way to exposing its dangers in the long run.
Therefore, it’s very important that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. be confirmed. His own thoughts on abortion seem straight out of the naive 60s soft-liberal handbook, with very little realization of the current situation of abortion up to the point of birth and beyond; he seems oblivious to the industry that traffics in fetal parts.
Nevertheless, he will help our cause:
RFK Jr. may be uniquely positioned to address this issue. Known for challenging regulatory failures, Kennedy could reinstate REMS for abortion pills and enact further requirements ensuring the collection of accurate safety data on these drugs, prioritizing women’s health over ideological agendas.
By requiring medical oversight for abortion pills, the federal government would take a bipartisan step to protect women from avoidable harm. Reinstating REMS would not ban the abortion pill but ensure it is used with the same safety standards applied to other high-risk drugs.
Pro-lifers need to support RFK Jr. Call your senator and urge a Yes vote.
His ideas are common sense. Once they are in place, we can use them to step up to the next goal in protecting unborn life. The alternative is what we have now: wide-spread deaths of babies at home, and great harm to mothers.

or maybe:
This is absolutely spot on. While there's no political support for banning the abortion pill, we can come at the issue from the side by pointing out the serious harm it does to mothers, simply as a question of medicine. Everything about RFK's entire career has been about transparency. Furthermore, as someone who still lives in the pro-choice world, he might have more crediblity with the broader mainstream in making this case, than would a principled pro-life person.
All of this is in addition to all the good he can do on vaccine safety and other areas where Big Pharma is killing--or at least harming--people.
A senator asked him about stem cells. RFK said we can use cord blood. Love it.
