because that is the same treatment as a foreign abortion, and they are coming under investigation or prosecution. i think what the president understands is that it is impossible to police a uterus, without the surveillance of pregnancy outcomes, the surveillance of individuals who are pregnant, who stopped being pregnant, whether through abortion, miscarriage, there is a real possibility that red states will set up a kind of dragnet, investigating individuals who are suspected of terminating a pregnancy, suspected of purchasing medication abortion illegally on the internet. it is to the effect of travelling to another state to receive an abortion. there is many legal scrutiny that many women will come under in a red states. i think it is unwise to you it solely as a matter of individual liberty for women who seek to terminate a pregnancy. this will affect so many more people and really put the spotlight on those who are carrying a pregnancy is because the states that ban abor
2pm in the afternoon, a row of shops in the town of kostiantynivka. Theyre used to attacks here but not on this scale. In the blast s shocking aftermath, a search for the living and the dead.
