OBGYN Slams Kamala Harris on Abortion Bans: “Stop Lying to My Patients”
Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her supporters in the media want Americans to believe pro-life legislation and Donald Trump are to blame for the deaths of two Georgia women who died from complications after taking abortion-inducing drugs.
But Dr. Christina Francis, CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life OB/GYNs (AAPLOG), asserts that Harris and her surrogates are spreading “dangerous lies” and using the deaths of these two women to promote abortion rights – a central plank of the Democratic Party platform.
Harris blamed Georgia’s pro-life law – and Trump – for the deaths of Amber Thurman and Candi Miller, women who took abortion pills to end their pregnancies.
“Women are bleeding out in parking lots, turned away from emergency rooms, losing their ability to ever have children again,” Harris posted to X last week, adding that “[s]urvivors of rape and incest are being told they cannot make decisions about what happens next to their bodies. And now women are dying. These are the consequences of Donald Trump’s actions.”
Pro-Publica led the montage of pro-abortion rights stories that claim the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade is causing women to die.

“At least two women in Georgia died after they couldn’t access legal abortions and timely medical care in their state, ProPublica has found,” claimed a report last week.
“Georgia’s ‘pro-life’ abortion ban literally killed a woman,” MSNBC headlined its story about Thurman, adding the 28-year-old “died a completely avoidable death in a Georgia hospital because the doctors treating her were terrified of committing a felony under the state’s abortion ban.”
Pro-Publica reported that Thurman died in 2022 after being hospitalized for an infection that developed after she took abortion pills in North Carolina since she was more than six weeks pregnant with her twins. Georgia’s law limits abortion after six weeks, but clearly permits the procedure when the mother’s life or physical health is endangered. When Thurman arrived at the emergency room in Georgia, her twins were already dead, but “she had not expelled all of the fetal tissue from her body” and needed a “dilation and curettage, or D&C.”
“But just that summer, her state had made performing the procedure a felony, with few exceptions,” Pro-Publica continued. “Any doctor who violated the new Georgia law could be prosecuted and face up to a decade in prison.”
The outlet reported that doctors “monitored her infection spreading, her blood pressure sinking and her organs beginning to fail,” and decided to operate after 20 hours – when it was already too late.
Similarly, Candi Miller, another Georgia mother, died after taking abortion-inducing drugs and, reportedly, in reaction to the media’s false claim that she could be prosecuted under her state’s law, did not act to obtain emergency medical treatment.
Francis, an OB/GYN, posted two videos to X last week urging Harris and her media allies to stop their “dangerous lies” to women:
