ProPublica, the deeply progressive news outlet that has disseminated false information about conservative Supreme Court justices, is reporting that a woman in Georgia died as a result of not being able to receive a legal abortion in the state.
Amber Thurmon suffered from sepsis in an Atlanta hospital after experiencing a rare side effect from an abortion pill. Without additional information, ProPublica extrapolated from publicly available details about the case that Thurmon died in a Georgia hospital because doctors refused to perform a procedure that is currently illegal in the state thanks to the fetal heartbeat law. Unsurprisingly, we now know that’s not true.
Dr. Christina Francis, an OB/GYN wrote an op-ed in the AJC debunking all of these claims. (4:57 in video)
The reason Georgia’s abortion law is not responsible for Thurmon’s death is simple, it explicitly allows physicians to intervene in cases of medical emergencies or if the fetus has no detectable heartbeat, both of which applied in Thurmon’s case. Any assertion that she experienced a delay in the case as a secondary result of the law is speculation. One thing is clear, she died from a legal chemical abortion which abortion advocates have argued is safer than Tylenol.
The non-doctors at ProPublica don’t want to talk about how an abortion pill has inherent dangers that ultimately cost this woman her life. Instead, they view journalism through an agenda-driven lens to produce cherry-picked stories for Democrats to campaign on. This is only the beginning. Watch:

As much as the media is in a frenzy about the Trump cat debacle, I find this lie being pushed to be far more insidious. Because they can't justify abortion on demand and the deliberate killing of the unborn, they try to find cases that are outliers from the norm to argue that any restriction on abortion will lead to women dying. As Erick and the doctor writing for the Atlanta newspaper rightly point out, the Georgia law has nothing to do with this woman's death. Instead it was an abortion pill market by pro-choice groups as being as "safe as tylenol". The Left stacks the deck on this issue so even when the abortificient they push leads to a woman's death, it's the fault of pro-lifers. All so we can continue the spectacle of modern child sacrifice that is abortion in America.
Since when has the truth or actual facts ever gotten in the way of the Left spinning a story to be favorable to their side? Low-information voters who still believe the dinosaur-media are telling the truth after the gaslighting that Biden is fine, believe it and we cannot dissuade them from that view. Perhaps the ballot box in November will dissuade them.
