Uh Oh! Democrats’ Silver Bullet Issue Is Losing Its Power This Election – PJ Media– pjmedia.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

In the spring of 2022, Team Red was eagerly rubbing its hands together in anticipation of walloping the Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections. Then SCOTUS handed down its Dobbs v. Jackson decision, and we became the proverbial dog that caught the car.

Democrats seized their opportunity. I wrote at the time that “Democrats are going all-in on a massive abortion pep rally in the 2022 midterm races. They’re heading into the election cycle homestretch with a massive $124 million already spent on pro-abortion television ads — nearly 20 times what they spent pushing pregnancy termination in the 2018 midterms…”

In the end, we watched our promised red wave dry up into a pink trickle and instead had our a**es handed to us. And with its recently corrected status as a legislative matter, abortion promised to be a perennial issue. Right-wing strategists fretted that, with abortion on the table in every upcoming election from now on, there would always be enough single-issue pro-abortion voters to make it impossible for Republicans ever to win another election in almost every state as well as nationally.

I worried about this as well, but I was also hopeful that people would now be free to decide the abortion issue in a more regional and democratic manner. I figured it would settle into an uneasy peace sooner or later. Now, it looks as though the issue may already be easing down the importance scale, in time for the 2024 election.

Exhibit A is Florida. In April 2023, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the state’s “Heartbeat Protection Act,” banning most abortions after six weeks of gestation. The political strategist in me cringed. Florida’s deep red hue of recent years has been such a morale booster, that I was loathe to see it lost in the abortion wars. After legal challenges failed, the law went into effect last May, and I winced again. This election is crucial to America’s preservation, and if we couldn’t even hold Florida, what chance did the rest of the country have?

Venezuela arrests five foreigners over alleged anti-government plot – bbc.com

Excerpt:

Venezuelan authorities have arrested five foreign nationals in connection with an alleged anti-government plot, the latest in a wave of arrests following July’s contested presidential election.

The country’s interior minister Diosdado Cabello said on Thursday that the five – three Americans, a Bolivian and a Peruvian – had engaged in a plan to destabilise the country.

Cabello claimed that US intelligence agencies were involved in the plot, though he provided no evidence for the allegation.

The CIA previously denied a claim it was involved in an alleged plot to assassinate President Nicolás Maduro.

The US State Department condemned the latest arrests and said that the “safety and security of American citizens anywhere around the world is our first priority”.

Electoral authorities loyal to Maduro announced him the victor in the July election, but the claim has been widely rejected by the international community.

After Maduro claimed victory, anti-government protests erupted.

More than 2,400 people have been detained for protesting against the election result. Hundreds have been charged with crimes including terrorism, incitement to hatred and resistance to authority, according to Human Rights Watch.

America’s Moloch Culture Sterilizes Thousands of Children – mindfulintelligence.com

Source Link

The Moloch culture that is child transgenderism has led to the sterilization of over 13,000 children in the last 5 years, with 5,800 of those children receiving genital mutilation surgery and/or mastectomies. This leaves these children dependent on expensive chronic medical treatment that will make Big Pharma billions.

This leaves parents vulnerable to having their children sacrificed on the altar of Moloch by school teachers emboldened with Moloch-protecting “transgender child” laws that enable them to groom children to “consensually” sacrifice their very sexuality “for the good of the whole.”

Over 13,900 U.S. Kids Have Received Damaging ‘Sex Change’ Treatments (So Far) – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

Excerpt:

Between 2019 and 2023, over 13,900 American kids received LGBTQ “sex change” treatments, temporarily or permanently damaging their growing bodies. U.S. leftists are really giving Moloch worshippers a run for their money on child sacrifice.

The medical advocacy group Do No Harm announced a groundbreaking database Oct. 8, the Stop the Harm Database, to record and expose the number of surgeries and “treatments” provided in the U.S. to kids that encourage the lie that people can change their biological sex. “With the launch of the Stop the Harm Database, Do No Harm is building on our mission to expose the dangers of experimental pediatric gender medicine and bring the practice to an end,” the group’s Chairman Dr. Stanley Goldfarb stated.

It is significant that the “transgender” surgery industry has been projected to reach up to a $5 billion value by the end of the decade. As Rush Limbaugh would say, follow the money.

From the Do No Harm accouncement:

Key National Findings (2019 to 2023):

13,994 children received sex change related treatments

5,747 sex change surgeries performed on children

62,682 hormone and puberty blockers prescriptions written for 8,579 pediatric patients.

At least $119,791,202 made from sex change treatments performed on minors

These numbers are just scratching the surface of how widespread these practices truly are.

Almost 5,800 Minor Patients had Irreversible Gender Surgeries Last 5 Years– legalinsurrection.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

The medical watchdog group Do No Harm established a database with the 225 hospitals that provide gender-changing surgeries on minors.

The majority of hospitals that performed the most surgeries are located in blue states:

In California, charges exceeded $28 million from over 2,000 minor patients, while Massachusetts saw around $10 million in expenses from 671 minor patients. New York also had one of the highest rates of transgender treatments for young people, with 1,154 minor patients undergoing sex changes between 2019 and 2023.

California, one of the first states to declare itself a “sanctuary state” for transgender procedures, also had the most irreversible surgeries, with 1,359 minors undergoing surgical procedures, followed by Oregon with 357, Washington with 330, Pennsylvania with 316 and Massachusetts with 300.

The 12 worst offending hospitals:

1. The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia
2. Connecticut Children’s Medical Center
3. Children’s Minnesota
4. Seattle Children’s
5. Children’s Hospital Los Angeles
6. Boston Children’s Hospital
7. Rady Children’s Hospital (San Diego, CA)
8. Children’s National Medical Center (Washington, DC)
9. UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland
10. Children’s Hospital Colorado
11. UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh
12. Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center

The database also records what medical facilities are providing these harmful “treatments” to kids, from puberty blockers to surgeries to cross-sex hormones. The majority of transgender youth are depressed and more likely to be suicidal, and most children naturally grow out of gender dysphoria if allowed to do so. Also, LGBTQ “treatments” can be physically harmful. For instance, cross-sex hormones can cause heart problems, blood clots, and infertility; puberty blockers can inflict lasting damage on kids’ body parts including bones and brains; and surgeries leave youth mutilated and in pain from the body parts hacked off and artificially re-structured.

Pennsylvania Taxpayers Paid Over $2.5 Million for Kids ‘Sex Change’ Interventions › American Greatness– amgreatness.com

Excerpt:

Taxpayers in Pennsylvania were billed more than $2.5 million via Medicaid to pay for “irreversible sex change interventions” on children between 2019 and 2023, according to the organization Do No Harm.

The Philly Leader reported that Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania (CHOP) and UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh were both named to Do No Harm’s “Dirty Dozen” list, consisting of the “12 worst offending children’s hospitals promoting sex change treatments for minors.”

The Stop the Harm database, which is a project of Do No Harm, reported that hospitals in the Keystone State saw 822 minors who were “sex change patients” including 316 surgery patients and 518 children who were administered hormone and puberty blockers.

125 of those interventions were paid for by the Medicaid program at a cost of $2, 527,715.

Taxpayer funding of these types of medical procedures has been in the spotlight as presidential candidate Kamala Harris has openly advocated for so-called “transgender” surgeries for inmates and illegal immigrants.

Trans Maine high schooler with prior sexual harassment allegations brutally attacks female classmate: report – thepostmillennial.com

Excerpt:

“The whole time, she’s just screaming for help, crying and screaming, ‘somebody help.’ And nobody helped her.”

A trans-identifying male student at a Maine high school has been accused of a violent assault on a female classmate last Friday after video of the incident was made public. The student had previously faced sexual harassment complaints at another school which were not addressed.

A biological male student attacked a female classmate outside Mount Desert Island High School in Bar Harbor. The student reportedly struck the girl in the head with a metal water bottle, pinned her to the ground, and bit her eye while pulling her hair and smashing her head into the pavement, according to The Maine Wire. The outlet also obtained additional unreleased footage corroborating the family’s allegations, showing the attacker violently hitting the victim with the bottle, straddling her, and attempting to rip out her hair.

“He full on attacks her, gets on top of her and pins her down,” the mother of the victim shared with the Maine Wire. “So she’s not even able to defend herself in any way because he’s bigger, he’s heavier, he’s like six-feet tall.”

“The whole time, she’s just screaming for help, crying and screaming, ‘somebody help.’ And nobody helped her,” the mother added. “The principal sat there and screamed at them instead of helping. And [her daughter] said, ‘Mom, I really thought I was going to die. I thought that was it. I thought I was never going to see you again.’ And that’s probably the hardest thing to hear.”

GOP Gov. Removes Doctor For Opposing Transing Children– thefederalist.com

Excerpt:

Wyoming radiologist Eric Cubin petitioned the federal court in Cheyenne last week to reinstate him to Wyoming’s Board of Medicine.

Cubin was appointed to the board, which oversees the licensing and regulations of the medical profession, by Republican Gov. Mark Gordon in 2023 and reappointed to another four-year term last March. Only weeks after his reappointment, the governor’s chief of staff notified him by telephone that the governor had removed him from the board. After hanging up, he received a letter from the governor, via email, that confirmed his removal and stated its cause.

Gordon wrote, “I have been made aware of your email to the members of the House of Representatives during this last legislative session regarding SF0099 in which you strongly encouraged the members to pass this legislation and criticized the Wyoming Medical Society’s opposition to this bill.”

SF0099 was originally named Chloe’s Law after Chloe Cole, a woman who was given hormone blockers and testosterone at the age of 13 and underwent a mastectomy at 15. The bill prohibits physicians and health care providers in Wyoming from performing surgeries and prescribing drugs to minor children “for the purposes of transitioning a child’s biological sex.”

While overwhelmingly supported by the public and passed by the legislature, Chloe’s Law was vehemently opposed by the Wyoming Medical Society (WMS), a lobbying group that carries a lot of clout in Cheyenne.

More than 200 hospitals and health care facilities provide irreversible transgender procedures to children, debunking left-wing claims that the treatments aren’t being done on minors.

Medical nonprofit watchdog Do No Harm launched a database Tuesday of 225 hospitals that provide sex-change surgeries, puberty blockers, and/or hormone therapies to children.

Do No Harm matched known gender-related transition codes with gender-related procedures and prescription codes to compile the database.

“The database provides conclusive proof that these interventions are happening on children across the country, both hormonal interventions and surgeries,” said Beth Serio, external relations manager at Do No Harm and a registered nurse. “We used bulletproof data from insurance claims databases to show that these procedures have been done on children.”

China made it clear to the world recently that it is committed to following the ESG standards of the DNC-CCP, with ESG standing for Environmental, Social, and Governance. A recent government propaganda piece signaled China’s involvement in the woke ideology and its commitment to following the standards.

From senecaesg.com: Although China’s ESG framework is still developing, it aligns closely with international standards, ensuring that mainland companies adhere to sustainable practices. This regulatory push is expected to promote widespread ESG awareness and implementation across industries.

China Strengthens ESG Compliance with New Regulatory Framework for Carbon Neutral Strategy – senecaesg.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

China has made significant progress in establishing a regulatory framework for Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) compliance, evolving over two decades. The first ESG policy, initiated in 2003, laid the groundwork for environmental information disclosure. By 2022, the State Council’s “Opinions on Comprehensively Promoting the Construction of a Beautiful China” emphasized the importance of ESG. This government endorsement advanced China’s focus on ecological governance and green economic development. 

Recent developments, like the Ministry of Finance’s 2023 draft “Corporate Sustainability Disclosure Standards,” marked a milestone in ESG regulations. These guidelines broaden ESG disclosure requirements beyond listed companies to include small and medium-sized enterprises. They focus on governance, strategy, and risk management, requiring timely and transparent reporting. 

Additionally, the Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Beijing stock exchanges have introduced guidelines mandating sustainable development reports for certain companies, emphasizing both financial and environmental impact. These reports must align with the company’s annual reports, fostering regulatory compliance. 

Although China’s ESG framework is still developing, it aligns closely with international standards, ensuring that mainland companies adhere to sustainable practices. This regulatory push is expected to promote widespread ESG awareness and implementation across industries.

MELANIA SUPPORTS UNBORN CHILD MURDER – The Guardian is reporting that Melania Trump will claim she is Pro-Unborn-Baby-Murder in her soon-to-be-released memoir in a move that may have been intended to chase pro-life voters away from the Trump ticket. Melania confirmed her position in a video share on X where she wrote “Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I safeguard. Without a doubt, there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth: individual freedom. What does my body, my choice really mean?”

While some pro-life voters might now not vote for Trump after this, it is more likely, in this writer’s opinion, this will create far more new Trump voters, suburban white women who would otherwise not vote for Democrats if abortion wasn’t the main issue, than it will cause Trump to lose voters.

Melania Trump confirms support for abortion rights in new video, putting her at odds with husband’s position – Local 3 News
Source Link
Excerpt:

Former first lady Melania Trump said in a new video posted Thursday that she believes there is “no room for compromise” when it comes to a woman’s “individual freedom,” after The Guardian reported excerpts from her forthcoming book in which she says she supports abortion rights “free from any intervention or pressure from the government.”

“Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I safeguard. Without a doubt, there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth: individual freedom. What does my body, my choice really mean?” the former first lady said in a video posted on X.

Her defense of abortion rights puts her at odds with her husband’s position roughly a month from Election Day. Donald Trump regularly takes credit for the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which eliminated federal protections for abortion and led to the enactment of severe restrictions on the procedure in mostly Republican-led states. The former president has said, however, that he would veto a federal abortion ban if he is elected again and that the issue should be left up to the states to legislate.

Melania Trump has been largely absent from the campaign trail amid her husband’s third White House bid and has kept a low profile, except for the release of several videos on social media in recent weeks to promote her book, which is slated to be released next week. The video the former first lady posted Thursday includes a link to pre-order her book.

According to The Guardian, the former first lady writes in her book: “Why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body? A woman’s fundamental right of individual liberty, to her own life, grants her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she wishes.”

The former president, meanwhile, has waffled on abortion rights over the course of his campaign, struggling at times to navigate an issue that has been politically fraught for Republicans in the post-Roe era. He said recently that he would not support a ballot measure to expand abortion access in his home state of Florida just 24 hours after suggesting he might. He has also taken to casting himself as a “protector” of women, claiming that American women won’t be “thinking about abortion” if he’s elected.

Tim Walz Defends Signing Bill for Abortions Up to Birth– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

During last night’s debate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz defended signing a bill in his state to allow killing babies in abortions up to birth.

When it comes to abortion, Walz claimed: “This issue is on everyone’s mind.”

Yet polling data shows  fewer voters said abortion was an important issue to them than those who named the economy and immigration as key issues for the presidential election.

Asked about the radical bill to allow killing babies for any reason any time, Walz falsely claimed “In Minnesota what we did was restore Roe v. Wade.”

Then Walz falsely claimed Donald Trump wants to create a “registry of pregnancies,” to keep track of pregnant women – an absurd idea no one is suggesting.

Vance corrected Walz, confirming that he and Trump would never create such a registry.

I bet all of these students are well versed in the language of social justice and equity.

The Washington Examiner reports:

Nearly 70% of Minnesota eighth grade students not proficient in math under Tim Walz

The academic performance of Minnesota students has worsened since Tim Walz became governor. This sad reality has been largely ignored since Walz became the Democratic nominee for vice president.

The sons and daughters of Minnesota’s beleaguered families are forced to endure an incompetent education system as their governor prioritizes his political ambitions over the needs of the people he was elected to serve. Recent test scores showed that the overwhelming majority of students in Walz’s state are not proficient in mathematics or reading. Moreover, their proficiency levels have regressed since Walz was elected governor.

Trump says he would veto a federal abortion ban if elected again – CNN

Excerpt:

Former President Donald Trump said Tuesday he would veto a federal abortion ban if he is elected again.

“Everyone knows I would not support a federal abortion ban, under any circumstances, and would, in fact, veto it, because it is up to the states to decide based on the will of their voters (the will of the people!)” Trump wrote in an all-caps post on his Truth Social platform during the CBS vice presidential debate between his running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.

“Like Ronald Reagan before me, I fully support the three exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother,” Trump continued.

The GOP nominee has repeatedly said he would not sign a federal abortion ban, but during last month’s ABC debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, he would not commit to vetoing such a ban and instead argued he “wouldn’t have to.”

When he was asked during that debate about Vance telling NBC News that the former president would veto such legislation, Trump said he hadn’t spoken to Vance about it, saying, “I don’t think he was speaking for me.”

Stanford Requires DEI Statement From Students Enrolling in Class– www.dailysignal.com

Excerpt:

THE CENTER SQUARE—Requiring students to make a DEi statement to qualify for a course is “inappropriate” and could cross the line of compelled speech, according to a Brookings Institution expert.

Stanford University is requiring that those applying to enroll in “Global Entrepreneurial Marketing,” a course offered by the Department of Management Science and Engineering, make a statement on diversity and inclusion.

“Diversity is an important part of the mission of the Stanford MS&E Department and this class,” text describing the required diversity and inclusion statement reads. “Please use this opportunity to describe how you will contribute to a culture of diversity and inclusion in this class.”

Brookings’ Jonathan Rauch, a senior fellow in governance studies, questioned the requirement in a post on his X account.

“Here’s what some @Stanford engineering instructors are requiring of prospective students for course enrollment,” Rauch wrote.

Tim Walz’s Position On IVF Shows How Extreme He Is– thefederalist.com

Excerpt:

Walz further stated that “the bar is pretty damn low … to treat people like human beings.” But considering that Walz is continually advocating for fertility treatments such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF), we have to ask: Where’s the equal justice for those whose lives are diminished to experimental subjects or are simply disposed of through the IVF process? Isn’t the treatment of “extra” human embryonic lives as expendable an affront to the human rights Walz claims to champion?

For his part, former President Donald Trump has recently stated that his administration is “pro-family” and wants more babies to be born; therefore, he wants IVF provided for “free” to infertile couples, either through government subsidization or by mandating that insurance companies pay for it. He appears to remain unconcerned, or at best unaware, that IVF takes more life than it creates.

In either case, perhaps Walz and Trump are simply unaware that in a typical IVF cycle hopeful couples end up with 13 or more lab-created embryos to consider, both practically and morally. Often couples decide what to do with their excess children after they feel their families are “complete.” The sad reality of IVF, though, is that their families are never fully complete while they have frozen children out there waiting to be rescued by their parents. A man and woman with 13 embryos that considers their family “complete” after implanting one more child still have 12 other children who remain, as yet, only partially realized, on ice.

Pro-Life Advocate Sues San Diego Over “Bubble Zone” Law That Bans Pro-Life Free Speech– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

A California man who has engaged in pro-life advocacy outside of abortion facilities for the past 15 years is suing San Diego for its newly-enacted “bubble zone” ordinance. Under the city law, speech is restricted within 100 feet of the entrance to an abortion facility, and even further restricted within an 8-foot bubble around persons within that zone. On behalf of pro-life advocate Roger Lopez, Thomas More Society attorneys filed a federal lawsuit against the city on September 5, 2024. The lawsuit argues that the speech-restricting ordinance violates the First and Fourteenth Amendment rights of pro-life individuals to offer information on life-affirming alternatives, as well as the rights of the women entering an abortion facility to hear it.

The lawsuit alleges that San Diego amplifies favored pro-abortion speech and silences disfavored pro-life speech, despite the San Diego City Council’s past declaration that “it is vital to our democracy to allow free speech for all, even those with whom we vehemently agree.” The ordinance imposes a noise limitation within the 100-foot buffer that is softer than normal conversation and prohibits any act deemed to “harass or intimidate” in a vaguely defined manner. It also imposes a requirement to obtain express authorization before entering a passerby’s 8-foot bubble.

Pro-life campaign ads show aborted children to steer support away from Kamala Harris– www.lifesitenews.com

Excerpt:

(LifeSiteNews) — In a series of riveting TV ads, Presidential candidate Randall Terry is taking aim at Democrats and the Catholics, Evangelicals, and Blacks who vote for them.  He and his fellow spokespersons mince no words.   

Terry’s campaign has developed about two dozen TV ads custom-tailored to each state where Democrats are seeking to enshrine abortion as a legal right through November ballot initiatives.  

Having judged past pro-life efforts since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade to be “anemic,” allowing catastrophic pro-life losses in Ohio, Michigan, Kansas, and Kentucky, the Terry campaign has incorporated images of aborted babies into its messaging in order to help religious voters understand that abortion is exactly what JPII called it: “Murder.” 

“You cannot end a holocaust of this magnitude without showing the victims and calling it ‘Murder,’” Terry told LifeSiteNews.  

“There are rules and tools in social warfare, and if those five rules and tools are not used, you lose: incendiary images, radical rhetoric, aggressive action, serious sacrifice, and verifiable victory,” Terry said as he explained the need to change the tactics employed in defeating inhuman Democrat policies and politicians.  

Nebraska Supreme Court lets ‘intentionally deceptive’ pro-abortion measure stay on ballot – liveaction.org
Source Link
Excerpt:

The Nebraska Supreme Court ruled Friday that a pro-abortion ballot measure that would enshrine the “right” to abortion in the state’s constitution can go before voters this November.

At issue was the “Protect Our Rights” amendment, which stipulates that “all persons shall have a fundamental right to abortion until fetal viability, or when needed to protect the life or health of the pregnant patient.” The Thomas More Society had filed a lawsuit against this ballot initiative, arguing that it used “remarkably misleading terms” and was “unconstitutionally riddled with separate subjects.”

In its ruling, the court determined that the amendment initiative “has a singleness of subject” and therefore does not violate the separate subjects rule.

“The fact that the drafters of the initiative have made certain choices regarding the specific limits, parameters, and definitions does not mean that each such provision is a separate subject,” Justice Lindsey Miller-Lerman wrote for the court in its unanimous decision.

Abortion Pill Kills Woman, Left Remains of Her Unborn Babies Inside Her– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

Our prediction has come to pass. Yesterday, ProPublica published an article attributing the death of Amber Nicole Thurman to Georgia’s pro-life laws.

Thurman legally obtained abortion pills in North Carolina to end the lives of her unborn twins. Five days later, after returning to her native Georgia, she experienced a serious complication: some of her babies’ remains were still in the uterus, and she was developing an infection.

… when Thurman went to the emergency room on the night of August 18, 2022, “doctors started Thurman on antibiotics and an IV drip” and “[t]he OB-GYN noted the possibility of doing a D&C the next day.” D&C stands for dilation and curettage, the surgical procedure that would have removed the twins’ remains from the uterus.

But the next morning came and went with no surgery. Doctors gave more IV fluid, escalated antibiotics, administered a blood pressure medication, tested her for pneumonia and STDs, and kept talking about – but not actually performing – the D&C.

By the time she finally went into the operating room, doctors determined she needed a hysterectomy. They also noticed serious blood flow problems to the bowel, which may have been a side effect of the blood pressure medication.

Thurman died on the table.

ProPublica allows that “[i]t is not clear from the records available why doctors waited to provide a D&C,” but quickly jumps to the implication that Georgia’s heartbeat law was to blame. The article focuses on alleged ambiguities in the medical emergency exception. But without any detectable fetal heartbeats, that exception didn’t even need to come into play.

 

 

Kamala Harris Lies About Woman Who Died From Abortion Pill, Falsely Claims Pro-Life Law Killed Her– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

It didn’t take long for Kamala Harris to exploit the death of a woman from the abortion pill for political gain.

As LifeNews reported today, Georgia resident Amber Nicole Thurman died after she took the abortion pill – that caused complications when it left parts of her twin unborn babies inside her…

Although Thurman died from complications of the abortion pill, Harris blamed Georgia pro-life law and falsely claimed it prevented doctors from caring for her.

“This young mother should be alive, raising her son, and pursuing her dream of attending nursing school,” Vice President Harris’ statement said. “This is exactly what we feared when Roe was struck down.”

State abortion bans, Harris said Tuesday, “are preventing doctors from providing basic medical care.”

“Women are bleeding out in parking lots, turned away from emergency rooms, losing their ability to ever have children again… and now women are dying,” Harris said.

“These are the consequences of Donald Trump’s actions,” Harris said. “There is so much at stake in this election, including restoring the freedoms that have been taken away from us.”

Pro-Abortion Extremists Love Kamala Harris, Here’s Why– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

… So why did USA Today columnist USA Sara Pequeño write that “In the June presidential debate, President Joe Biden’s answer on the abortion issue made me feel hopeless”? Because his answer “failed to capture the gravity of the situation.”

Luckily for Pequeño, the Democratic power brokers forced Biden out, making it possible for Vice President Kamala Harris to be the party’s presidential nominee. That, in turn, made it possible for her answer in the September debate to “make up for” Biden’s “incoherent’ response.

For Pequeño, Harris’s “answer is exactly what I was hoping to hear from the Democratic presidential nominee.”

“I pledge to you when Congress passes a bill to put back in place the protections of Roe v. Wade as president of the United States, I will proudly sign it into law

Democrat Chair Admits She Supports Abortions Up to Birth: “All the Way to the End”– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

The former chairwoman of the Florida Democratic Party was caught on camera advocating that abortion take place “all the way to the end” of pregnancy in an undercover recording made at last month’s Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

The video was provided to The Daily Signal last week after Vice President Kamala Harris said during the presidential debate that women aren’t getting late-term abortions.

Late-term abortions refer to abortions in the third trimester of pregnancy, when the baby can survive outside the womb and feel pain.

“Nowhere in America is a woman carrying a pregnancy to term and asking for an abortion—that is not happening,” Harris said in her debate last Tuesday with former President Donald Trump hosted by ABC News.
