What’s the Buzz: Everything You Need to Know About the Mifepristone Case

Full episode transcript HERE.The Feminist Buzzkills are having déjà vu all over again this week, as it’s yet another Friday and we’re waiting to see what Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito is going to do to our abortion rights. Now raise your hand if you’ve been losing your marbles over this Mifepristone abortion pill circle jerk. No need to fear, we’ve got Senior Counsel of The Lawyering Project, Tanya Pellegrini, with us to hold our hands through it. She lays out ALL the things we need to know, what comes next, and what YOU can do about it! We’re also serving y’all the biggest and freshest abobo tea from this week. Expect a couple of bright spots, like some knowledge on an OG abortion tool known as manual uterine aspiration (cue the oooh’s and ahhh’s) and even some good news out of Nebraska!PLUS, the funniest bitch we know, Marcella Arguello, is in the house! The FAB comic, writer, and actor supplies the laughs and the serotonin boost you need, talks about her HBO Max comedy special “Bitch, Grow Up!,” discovering her wokeness, what’s bringing her joy amongst the chaos, and why we should all stan Aida Rodriguez. And when you’re done filling your earholes with the angelic, rage-filled voices of the Feminist Buzzkills, get your booty on over to our virtual AAF petition asking the FDA to protect mifepristone, SIGN IT AND SEND IT TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO CARES ABOUT UTERI. Times are heavy, but we got you.OPERATION SAVE ABORTION: You can still join the 10,000+ womb warriors fighting the patriarchy by listening to our five-part OpSave pod series and Mifepristone Panel by clicking HERE for episodes, your toolkit, marching orders, and more.HOSTS:Lizz Winstead @LizzWinsteadMoji Alawode-El @MojiLocksMarie Khan @MjKhan NEWS DUMPER:Molly Gaebe @MollyGaebe SPECIAL GUESTS: Tanya PellegriniMarcella Arguello IG/TW: @MarcellaComedyTanya explains this week’s “ROECABULARY” term: “Legal Standing”QUICK HITS:AAF PARODY CLIP: Snark Tank Texas!North Dakota House Passes Near-Total Abortion Ban With Limited ExceptionsFederal Judge Halts Colorado Ban on ‘Abortion Pill Reversal’Nevada Senate Approves Abortion Protections in ConstitutionJudge Who Denied Girl Abortion Over Grades Shortlisted for Florida’s Top CourtEdgewood Anti-abortion Ordinance Likely to Face Challenge at NM Supreme Court‘A Gamechanger’: This Simple Device Could Help Fight the War on Abortion Rights in the US​GUEST LINKS:The Lawyering ProjectDONATE to The Lawyering ProjectAbortion Defense NetworkRepro Legal Defense FundMarcella Arguello’s WebsiteMarcella Arguello: Bitch, Grow Up! on HBO MaxMotivational Monday Meditations with Marcella ArguelloWomen Crush Wednesdays with Marcella ArguelloAida Rodriguez’s InstagramEPISODE LINKS:MYA Network WebsiteSIGN THE AAF PETITION TO KEEP MIFEPRISTONE ACCESSIBLE4/24: Heart-to-Heart Abortion Conversations by Grandmothers for Reproductive Rights4/24: Susie, You're Pregnant: A Storytelling Teach-In by Grandmothers for Reproductive RightsMONTHLY VIRTUAL ACTION: Expose Fake Clinics Midwest Access Coalition / @midwest_access_coalition (IG) @MidwestAccess (TW)AAF’s Abortion-Themed Rage PlaylistFOLLOW US:Listen to us ~ FBK PodcastInstagram ~ @AbortionFrontTwitter ~ @AbortionFrontTikTok ~ @AbortionFrontFacebook ~ @AbortionFrontYouTube ~ @AbortionAccessFrontPATREON HERE!
