Episode Description
Culture Reporter Michaela Estruth discusses her interview with Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri. The conversation centers on Hawley’s letter to acting Attorney General Todd Blanche seeking justice for nearly full-term infants whose remains were discovered in a dumpster in Washington, D.C. several years ago. Hawley questions whether outfits such as Planned Parenthood may be violating partial-birth abortion bans and chemical-abortion laws, and he presses for an investigation so that those responsible can be held accountable.
They also examine an undercover probe of Plan C, an abortion-pill provider that has shipped pills beyond FDA guidelines into states where they are banned, raising serious safety risks for women—including cases of coercion. A South Dakota lawsuit challenging a state ban on abortion advertising is reviewed as a free-speech issue, with parallels drawn to restrictions on abortion-pill-reversal advertising in blue states. Hawley’s letter to Meta over the alleged silencing of a whistleblower who raised concerns about child-exploitation material on the company’s platforms is covered, along with his bill that would withhold Postal Service executive bonuses until on-time delivery rates improve in Missouri.
Additional stories include Republican efforts to contest Missouri’s redrawn 5th Congressional District, a Department of Justice demand that a Kansas City, Kansas school district end secret transgender policies, and journalist Nick Shirley’s ongoing exposure of large-scale government fraud.
