What You Should Know About Chemical Abortion – Part 2

Posted on by

In Part 2, Carole Novielli and Jor-El Godsey expose the dark agenda behind the more recent push for chemical abortion on vulnerable young women, forcing them to play doctor, nurse and pathologist as they take the abortion pills alone at home with little to no medical oversight. Despite the risks of these pills, many major medical organizations support easy access to abortion, and complications related to chemical abortion are often overlooked or go unreported. The complicit media clearly has a bias towards abortion, even citing statistics out of context as they seek to blame pro-life laws for women who are harmed during an abortion.
