BREAKING: BOMBSHELL ruling SHOCKS entire country

I'm joined now by All Rise News is Adam. Glassfeld. Adam, we have major news. that's going to impact the entire. country as it relates to mifepristone, which is the abortion drug, which had. been available by mail. Can you explain. what this ruling is? The Fifth Circuit, one of the most. conservative judicial circuits in the. country, and all Republican panel, uh. essentially blocked. regulations by the Biden administration. that made mifepristone available to. anyone by mail through telemedicine. It.

essentially in uh pausing a regulation. reverts to the old regulation where you. had to arrive in person. And to give a. little bit of perspective here, mifepristone is used in 2/3 of abortions. in the United States. So, this is a. ruling with widespread nationwide. ramifications. It's not only a ruling. that in a case this particular case was. brought by Louisiana, but it doesn't. affect Louisiana only. It affects the.

whole country. So, is there an impact on. states, for example, where abortion is. still legal? Does this just impact the. states where abortion is illegal? I'm. just trying to like suss out who's going. to be most impacted here? Or is it. everybody, and even if you're trying to. order mifepristone via mail in. California, you'll be impacted? That's exactly right, Brian. It affects. the entire country because it re-imposes. the restrictions that the medication. needs to be picked up in person. So, if.

you're in a rural county in California, and it's not so easy to go somewhere in. person, or if you're a victim of. domestic violence, and you it's not it's. not easy to go someplace where you have. to go face-to-face with a doctor, and you don't have the option, as a. result of this ruling, to go by mail. So, can you explain why, if this is a. ruling that's contained within the Fifth. Circuit, it has nationwide implications?

Because this is a ruling that's. attacking the underlying regulation. You. had essentially the state of Louisiana. filing a lawsuit in the wake of the. Dobbs ruling saying that Louisiana, for. folks who don't know, has one of the. most restrictive abortion bans that have. been on the books since Roe v. Wade was. overturned. So, they sued the state sued. to block access to mifepristone by mail.

saying that that was being used to. circumvent their ban. And the this was a. three-judge panel. As I said earlier, it was. three-judge panel of all Republican. appointees, two Trump appointees, written by a Trump appointee, and it was. a unanimous ruling by that court. Now, how quickly do you anticipate there is. going to be an appeal up to the US. Supreme Court? And a follow-up to that, is there anything that you can read from. the tea leaves that might suggest where.

the US Supreme Court's position is on. this issue? Other than the fact that. this is a 6-3 ideologically aligned with. the Republican Party bench full of. justices who sit on the court. Well, I would expect this is going to be. appealed quite quickly just because of. the fact that as we went over this has. nationwide impact. It's a major ruling. that's going to affect the entire. country. Uh but it. as you said, this is a 6-3 ideologically.

aligned court. We've seen that in very. recent rulings. Uh in the mifepristone. case in particular, um we do have to. remember it wasn't that long ago that. there was a 9-0 ruling of the Supreme. Court of upholding access to. mifepristone. But that particular legal. challenge was thrown out on standing. grounds. It was a ruling that was. authored by Brett Kavanaugh. So, it was. a recent ruling where we could see well, the court did preserve in that case.

access to the drug, but this is a very. different set of facts. This is the. state bringing the case in the other. Supreme Court case. You had certain. anti-abortion. oriented doctors challenging it and they. didn't have standing to go up against. the FDA. Uh it could be a very. difficult, you know, I wouldn't bet on the courts. to protect access to this drug right. now, but we'll see what happens. It's.

hard to predict. Adam, [snorts] what kind of an impact is. this going to have on Americans who are. seeking to exercise some autonomy over. their reproductive rights? This is going to have a huge effect. This is a major victory for. anti-abortion. movement in the United States because it. is a blow against access to a drug used. in 2/3 of abortions in the United States. and that percentage went up dramatically. after the overturning of Roe versus.

Wade. So, the impacts are going to be. deep. If you live in a rural area, as I. said a little bit earlier, if you're the. victim of domestic violence and you and. telemedicine is a way that you can avoid. detection in an abusive relationship, this is the type of thing where this. ruling could have a dramatic impact. Is. there any way to circumvent this ruling. if, for example, you are a legislator or. a governor in a blue state who.

recognizes the importance of making sure. that women have access to this type of. medication? You know, one of the things that's. interesting to note here is that I. believe. the Republicans understand that this is. a very unpopular policy to restrict. access to this drug. This was something. and there's signs of it even in this. litigation. Right now, you have Trump's. FDA doing a review of mifepristone and.

undoubtedly this review by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s. Department of Health and Human Services. and within that the FDA. is going to kind is going to come up. with some excuse to put some. restrictions on this medication, but it it's interesting because in this. case. the Trump Department of Justice wanted. to pause this litigation. We are in a.

midterm season. and it might be worth noting that. it's that perhaps the administration is. slow walking this trying to kick the can. down the road. because they understand that this is a. political loser. Correct. And I mean, we. have seen this on top of other political. losers as of late. We have a failure to. release the Epstein files despite. repeated calls by virtually everybody. who who makes up this administration in. the campaign. We have seen an engagement in you know,

a degree of foreign adventurism that we. haven't seen in quite a long time. including an ongoing war in Iran and. this is at the hands of people who beat. their chests about no new foreign wars, no new wars in the Middle East. We also. were told that this administration was. going to be America first. Meanwhile, we've seen Medicaid cut from 17 million. Americans. We've seen ACA subsidies cut. from 24 million Americans. We've seen. food assistance cut to the tune of $186. billion. Thanks to Trump's trade war, the cost of. everything has surged. We have gas now.

at its highest price in years, virtually. at its highest price ever. And and this administration keeps piling. on this stuff onto Americans, which. would be bad enough onto itself, but. even worse given the fact that they came. into office under this pretext that they. would be looking out for Americans. They. would promote this America first agenda. And we've got. an administration full of people who. can't stop raising prices, can't stop. taking healthcare away from people, can't stop taking food assistance away. from people, can't stop siding with this.

criminal cabal of pedophiles. And and. this now would be just the latest the. latest iteration, the latest blow on top. of all of that we're yet again. they're engaging in this political loser. where they attack reproductive rights. and abortion rights. Absolutely. I mean, this could wind up. being a dog that caught the car. That. after. succeeding in overturning Roe versus. Wade, you have certain parts of the. country that have supported Trump.

demanding policies that are vastly. unpopular. And it seems like this is. happening now. And I think that this. case and the fact that this has this. ruling has been put out by one of the. most conservative. circuits in the country by a two Trump. appointee all conservative appointee. panel. It it really ratchets up the stakes. It. casts things into stark relief. And. people can see that potentially at least.

on this issue, yes, this is going to be appealed very. likely to the Supreme Court. The Supreme. Court will have to issue a ruling, but. the court might not particularly save. access to this drug that is relied upon. by people across the country. And so it. it shows the limits of that and the. importance of political engagement and. engagement writ large. All right, one. last question here, Adam. I want to take. like a 30,000 ft view of this. Let's say.

the Democrats are able to retake the. White House in the 2028 election, take. office in 2029. we have a Democratic FDA. administrator in place. Is there a world. where this could be undone? This action. could be rolled back if we have someone. in that position who recognizes the. importance of mail in mifepristone or. abortion medication? Absolutely, Brian. I mean, if in that. world that you're describing, we could. have codified protections for abortion.

access. In that world that you're. describing, one could have a different. FDA there who are conducting studies. based on sound science that. put together regulations that's based on. that science rather than this. preordained conclusion. So, that's a. very different world. It's a very. different set of facts and it's less. dependent on what happens on a certain. court on a certain day. All right. Well, we will of course stay on top of this. issue. For those who are watching right.

now, uh if you're looking to support. fearless independent media, there is no. better outlet than All Rise News. Uh. that is Adam's outlet. Uh covers all of. these legal ins and outs on a daily. basis on his own dime, often flying. around the country. So, if you're. looking again to support uh an. independent media outlet that you can. trust 100%, there's again no better. choice than All Rise News. So, I'm going. to put that link right here on the. screen and also in the post description. of this video. Adam, as always, thanks. so much for the time. Thank you so much, Brian.
