Hillary Clinton is warning about the legality of birth control in the wake of a decision by the Alabama Supreme Court that found frozen embryos created through fertility treatments are children under state law.

“They came for abortion first. Now it’s [in vitro fertilization], and next it’ll be birth control,” the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee and secretary of State said in a post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

“The extreme right won’t stop trying to exert government control over our most sacred personal decisions until we codify reproductive freedom as a human right,” Clinton added.

    It’s not the extreme right, this is mainstream for conservatives.

    Nonsense. Mainstream conservatism is the Democratic Party and they’ve taken a firm position of “We’ll say whatever we think makes the current audience we’re facing happy then hope this whole thing blows over”.
