Failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is once again stirring the pot as tensions boil over with the possibility that the Supreme Court could overturn Roe v. Wade in the near future, and her latest Twitter missive has many pointing out the platform’s double standard on misinformation.
During the House Judiciary Committee’s hearing on abortion rights on Wednesday, Democrat Rep. Lucy McBath of Georgia added to what was already a grotesque politicized spectacle when she recounted the details of her own failed pregnancy in emotionally charged testimony.
“Millions of women in America, women in this room, women at your homes, and women you love and cherish, have suffered a miscarriage,” she said during her wrenching account.
“And so I ask, on behalf of these women, after which failed pregnancy should I have been imprisoned?” McBath asked.
“Would it have been after the first miscarriage, after doctors used what would be an illegal drug to abort the lost fetus?” she asked. “Would you have put me in jail after the second miscarriage?”
It is hard to describe the agony of a miscarriage. It is heartbreak, helplessness, pain, and profound sadness.

“Or would you have put me behind bars after my stillbirth—after I was forced to carry a dead fetus for weeks, after asking God if I was ever going to be able to raise a child?”
Hillary swooped in like a vulture to seize on the congresswoman’s painful experience to misleadingly claim that miscarriages will be criminalized by Republicans.
“Please listen to @RepLucyMcBath as she speaks for so many women who have had miscarriages and stillbirths—tragic losses the right wing seeks to criminalize,” Mrs. Clinton wrote.

While Hillary has a long history of being a super spreader of hyperbole and misinformation, the lack of reaction from “fact-checkers” to her latest whopper is yet another example of the double standard when it comes to Democrats, specifically from Twitter which just announced its new crisis misinformation policy.
People turn to Twitter during crisis times to share news, find support, and stay connected. Today, we’re launching a crisis misinformation policy so Twitter doesn’t recommend or amplify viral, false content that can further harm already vulnerable groups.https://t.co/NyhoGo5RQU

While Twitter’s new policy specifically mentions the Ukraine-Russia war, the fact that the Department of Homeland Security is preparing for a wave of violence if Roe v. Wade is struck down would certainly seem to fit any reasonable definition of a crisis, putting Mrs. Clinton in violation of the rules.
Some users made the obvious connection and called out Hillary’s big lie.
Hello @TwitterSafety, this is misinformation.
No one is going to criminalize miscarriages or stillbirths. https://t.co/ASYYYmMKyW

This is quite the take. Do you have any specifics re: the criminalization of miscarriages? If so, please share it. I’ll be waiting.

Clinton also took to Twitter to blame Republicans for President Biden’s baby formula shortage.
“Ask your Republican member why they voted no on helping to end the baby formula shortage, which is hurting already-born babies,” she said. “Better yet, remember their hypocrisy in November.”

She recently accused Republicans, who asked legitimate questions about baby formula being provided to illegal immigrants at the border while American mothers lack nourishment for their newborns, of wanting “certain babies” to starve, more of the inflammatory rhetoric that the embittered sore loser has spewed for nearly six years since she was rejected by voters in the 2016 election.

It’s probably a pretty safe bet that Clinton will continue to churn out her inflammatory and misleading statements with mob violence being a very real possibility this summer and with her not having ruled out another White House run in 2024, but one thing seems certain, she will be able to lie with impunity as is the case with all Democrats.
