The most vile thing the Left does (and trust us, it's a long list of vile) is their willing, intentional, and callous conflation of abortion with medical care for miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies. The two things are not the same, and lying about them -- including telling women suffering a miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy they'll be denied medical care -- is downright despicable.
Several years ago, actress and model Chrissy Teigen suffered a very tragic miscarriage. This writer has nothing but sympathy for the pain she (and husband John Legend) went through. It hurts to lose a child.
What this writer does not have sympathy for is lying about it to advance an abortion agenda. This isn't the first time Teigen and Legend did this. In 2022, Legend went on David Axelrod's podcast and called the miscarriage an 'abortion' and 'an intimate decision.'
Here they are, doing the same thing in People:
Chrissy Teigen Says She ‘Didn’t Know’ She Was Having an Abortion with Late Son Jack https://t.co/eAD7GHaiia

She didn't know, because she wasn't having an abortion.
Chrissy Teigen is opening up about her late-term abortion experience.
Teigen, 38, shared her story while speaking at a rally supporting Arizona's right-to-abortion initiative, Proposition 139, in Phoenix, on Sunday, Oct. 27.
During her speech, she shared that she “didn’t know” she had an abortion in 2020 when she lost her son Jack after experiencing pregnancy complications.
In a video of her speech shared by CNN, Teigen recalled her pregnancy with Jack “taking a turn for the worse,” which led to her having a life-saving abortion that she initially thought was a miscarriage.

In the medical field, a miscarriage is referred to as a "spontaneous abortion" vs "induced abortion" which is what most people think of when they hear "abortion."

And they are two different things.
No hospital or doctor is going to perform procedure on you and do not let you know You know this woman is six cylinders firing on four anyway she can come up with some cockamani stories and then she said she was embarrassed to admit it when they support abortion make your mind up

This is sickening. Chrissy Teigan did not have an abortion and anyone telling her, or making her feel that she did, is disgustingly manipulative and exploitative. She miscarried and delivered a stillborn baby that she wanted. THAT IS NOT AN ABORTION. pic.twitter.com/Opti38fDdi

For people who insist the rest of us 'follow the science', they sure ignore it in favor of advancing their political agenda. The procedure to remove fetal remains after a miscarriage is not an abortion. It is not prohibited under any anti-abortion laws. It is basic, necessary, medical care.
Any medical professional who says otherwise is either a) incompetent or b) a partisan.
“I never experienced any pain…so it wasn’t an abortion” WHAT?!?! pic.twitter.com/ePG4Ou1gd5

So hold up. She admits abortion is painful?
Is that what she's saying here?
Because that's not the winning argument she thinks it is.
THIS. IS. DESPICABLE. EMOTIONAL. MANIPULATION. Chrissy Teigan did not have an abortion. pic.twitter.com/AglBjQt57Z

That's all this is. Right before an election, in a cynical attempt to sway the election.
This harms more women than it helps, because it lies to them. It tells them they'll be denied necessary, life-saving care
