We live in a culture that's hyper obsessed with environmental protection. We ban plastic bags to save the turtles and filter our water from microplastics. We get angry when we think big corporations are putting profit over people. Concerns over climate change dictate everything from auto manufacturing to young people deciding if they're going to have children. But there's one environmental threat that almost everyone in power refuses to acknowledge, study, or write policy to change, even though it's 100% fixable. There is a massive unregulated pharmaceutical pipeline dumping potent hormone disruptors directly into our water supply. These hormones can affect aquatic life, our drinking water, and the fertility of millions of American women. And the EPA is looking the other way. Why is that? Because the polluter is the abortion industry. The abortion industry always has had a huge problem. What to do with all the bodies? Having them hauled away is expensive. Storing them in freezers requires a lot of freezers. Incinerators are expensive. Plumbing gets clogged when you try to put them down the garbage disposal. And most states, not all, but most, won't burn their bodies for electricity. And I shit you not, what I just said to you are the real documented methods the abortion industry has used for decades to dispose of all the dead bodies they produce. The problem is big. Pro life journalists went undercover at a conference for abortionists a few years ago, and some of them share their fantasies for dealing with the problem more cheaply. Could they send the babies home in gift bags with the moms? Maybe take them out to the woods and create a huge bonfire? These ghouls received a gift when abortion pills came on the market. Why? Because the dead bodies are no longer their problem. They dispense the pills, she goes home, has the abortion, and the mother disposes of the body herself in her toilet bowl. Surgical abortions are no longer the dominant method of abortion in the United States. Chemical abortions now account for over 60% of abortions in America, and that number is rising every year. The dead bodies problem didn't go away. The bodies are still piling up. But instead of piling up in the freezers and the medical waste bin of surgical abortion facilities, they're now piled up in in our sewers. And get this. Municipal water sanitation systems are not equipped to deal and filter out abortion drugs in our wastewater, let alone the bodies of dead children. Have I mentioned to you that most municipalities recycle wastewater into drinking water? The abortion pill metpristone isn't a vitamin. It's a potent synthetic steroid. One dose is strong enough to kill a human being. In fact, that's what it was created to do. And the chemicals that starve a baby to death in utero don't disappear. Once a mom flushes the toilet after her body expels the deceased baby. Her baby as well as all of the pregnancy tissue like placenta are contaminated with metpristone. When they go down the toilet and into our wastewater systems, they're full of potent endocrine disruptors, AKA hormone disruptors. Our bodies rely on healthy hormones to function. Hormones tell our bodies when and how to operate. And we all know what an anti progesterone hormone does to a baby during pregnancy. It starves and kills them. But what do they do when they hit our water supply with 600 to 700,000 sets of Mepristone tainted pregnancy tissue along with fetal remains entering our U.S. water system every year, don't you think we would want to know the answer to this question? While the question hasn't seriously been asked since 1996, and I get it, that's before many of you watching were even born. I was in middle school. That's the last time the US Government did an environmental assessment to determine what kind of impact mifepristone would have on our environment. And that safety review was just a rubber stamp as it only took into account the packaging of the pill mifepristone. Granted, in 1996, it is doubtful that anyone in the US government envisioned a mail order abortion drug regime rubber stamped by the Food and Drug Administration delivering chemical abortion drugs to the doorsteps of hundreds of thousands of pregnant women every year. I'll give them that. And yet here we are, flushing hundreds of thousands of chemically tainted human remains and tissue down our toilets every single year. And with the Environmental Protection Agency nowhere to be found, the EPA is very clear that it advises flushing almost nothing down the toilet except human waste and toilet paper. But the same EPA is MIA when it comes to the public waterway being used as a disposal system for hundreds of thousands of chemically tainted pregnancy tissue and human bodies. And trust me, it's not because they don't know. They've been told by dozens, including me and many others. They're known in the scientific community as EDCs, or endocrine disrupting chemicals. And they include things like some pesticides and plastics, industrial chemicals, and as we're discussing today, pharmaceutical products. Remember how I said that hormones control body processes? But that's not just true in humans. Aquatic species exposed to EDCs are more vulnerable to disease. Scientists who have studied the phenomenon blame, in part, flushing pharmaceuticals down the toilet for affecting aquatic health and biodiversity. One of the great ironies about the environmental crisis being teed up by chemical abortion is that the same political faction that wants environmental regulations in every other case is the same one that is propping up the chemical abortion industry. The pro abortion side of the aisle could literally go from an abortion rally in the morning to a climate change rally in the afternoon, and we'll never see the disconnect. But we do. While the other side gives the abortion cartel a free pass to pollute, we are exposing the truth. The abortion industry cares more about expanding mail order abortion drug access than about protecting the communities where the pills are actually being flushed. And let's be real, an industry that's working to kill babies via abortion pills really shouldn't be expected to care what a community's drinking in their water. We live in an era of unprecedented government accountability. Documents are being unsealed. Fraudsters who have robbed taxpayers of hundreds of millions are being exposed and prosecuted. Entire governmental agencies are being shut down for being proven to be harmful to the American people and lying to us. And what I think should happen is that it's time to apply that same level of zeal for accountability to the chemical abortion industry that's been harming and killing Americans. The first step is simple and straightforward. The EPA must add McPristone to its contaminant monitoring list. And the reality is, you don't have to be a pro life activist to care what happens to the drinking water of hundreds of millions of American citizens. In fact, I think this is a perfect opportunity for common ground. The abortion industry told women that this was a private choice. But abortion never affects just one victim. Every abortion sends shockwaves, not only through a mother and a family, but also community, even if it's not felt right away. And when you flush a hormone disruptor along with hundreds of thousands of dead children into our waterways, it becomes everybody's problem.
Episode: What's ACTUALLY in your Drinking Water?
Date: July 27, 2026
Host: Kristan Hawkins
In this episode, Kristan Hawkins takes a deep dive into a largely ignored environmental issue: the presence of pharmaceutical hormone disruptors, specifically from abortion drugs, in America's drinking water. Hawkins argues that this overlooked threat is enabled by political bias and lack of regulatory action, especially by agencies like the EPA. She critiques not only the methods of fetal remains disposal but also the environmental ramifications of widespread chemical abortions, calling for accountability and reform.
Hawkins opens with commentary on society's attention to environmental issues—plastic bans, microplastics, climate change—contrasting this with neglect of pharmaceutical pollution linked to abortion drugs.
She emphasizes a “massive unregulated pharmaceutical pipeline” dumping hormone disruptors into drinking water.
“There's one environmental threat that almost everyone in power refuses to acknowledge, study, or write policy to change, even though it's 100% fixable.” (00:34)
Explains the logistical and ethical dilemma abortion providers face in disposing of fetal remains, referencing controversial methods from documented pro-life investigations (e.g., hauling bodies, incineration, plumbing, and even suggestions of sending remains home with patients).
Surmises that the shift to chemical abortions has made the disposal problem less visible but more insidious, now passing the task to individuals who flush remains at home.
“Chemical abortions now account for over 60% of abortions in America, and that number is rising every year... instead of piling up in the freezers and the medical waste bin... they're now piled up in our sewers.” (02:37)
Describes how municipal water systems are not designed to filter out abortion drugs or their chemical byproducts.
Points out that most municipalities recycle wastewater into tap water, raising concerns about residue from drugs like mifepristone contaminating drinking supplies.
“Municipal water sanitation systems are not equipped to deal and filter out abortion drugs in our wastewater... most municipalities recycle wastewater into drinking water.” (03:35)
Notes that the last environmental assessment for mifepristone’s impact was in 1996, prior to today's widespread mail-order abortion practices.
Criticizes both the FDA and EPA for bureaucratic negligence, stating the only review considered the pill's packaging, not environmental impact post-use.
“That safety review was just a rubber stamp as it only took into account the packaging of the pill mifepristone.” (04:42)
Defines EDCs and lists sources, including abortion pharmaceuticals.
Cites effects on both human health and aquatic ecosystems, mentioning increased disease vulnerability and biodiversity threats.
Highlights irony: political groups vigorously fight environmental threats except when it comes to abortion-related pollution.
“Scientists who have studied the phenomenon blame, in part, flushing pharmaceuticals down the toilet for affecting aquatic health and biodiversity.” (06:59)
“The pro abortion side of the aisle could literally go from an abortion rally in the morning to a climate change rally in the afternoon, and we'll never see the disconnect. But we do.” (07:41)
Frames the current climate as one of government accountability and transparency.
Argues it's time to scrutinize the “chemical abortion industry” just as other industries and agencies are investigated.
“It’s time to apply that same level of zeal for accountability to the chemical abortion industry that's been harming and killing Americans.” (09:09)
Advocates for the EPA to add mifepristone to the contaminant monitoring list.
Appeals to those outside the pro-life movement, framing clean drinking water as a universal concern.
“You don't have to be a pro life activist to care what happens to the drinking water of hundreds of millions of American citizens.” (09:43)
Warns of the collective impact: “When you flush a hormone disruptor along with hundreds of thousands of dead children into our waterways, it becomes everybody's problem.” (10:18)
Kristan Hawkins delivers the episode in an urgent, investigative style, using a combination of stark, provocative language (“ghouls,” “cartel,” “dead children”), dark humor, and rhetorical appeals. The messaging is sharply critical of abortion providers, government agencies, and perceived political hypocrisy, with an overt pro-life perspective framing the discussion throughout.
