Actually, not simply misleading, the whole premise of the Texas anti-abortion law is based on a lie: that a fetal heartbeat can be detected after six weeks of pregnancy. There is no heartbeat the first six weeks because, like the male hypocritters who came up with this nonsense, there is no heart. What the ultrasound machine detects in an embryo at six weeks is just electrical activity from cells that aren't yet a heart. And the sound that is "heard" is actually manufactured by the ultrasound machine.
