Sen. Claire McCaskill’s (D-MO) staff already admitted she is open to a semiautomatic rifle ban, and on Thursday night, McCaskill made clear that she, too, is coming after gun shows. She also called for other gun controls and maligned the NRA for standing against infringement of Second Amendment rights.

Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri has demanded that a special prosecutor be appointed to investigate a sting operation that exposed previously secret alleged ties to Planned Parenthood and various gun-control-advocacy groups. McCaskill’s campaign manager David Kirby called on her Republican Senate challenger Josh Hawley, the sitting Missouri attorney general, to appoint a special prosecutor to launch an investigation into the video-surveillance operation that captured her staffers discussing tactics used to conceal Planned Parenthood’s financial support for their campaign. “We have reason to believe that fraud has been committed against our campaign,” Kirby told reporters Wednesday. “There’s no question that the...

Sen. Claire McCaskill's (D-Mo.) campaign is asking her Senate race opponent, Attorney General Josh Hawley (R), to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate whether a right-wing group violated state laws in secretly recording and publishing a video from inside the senator's campaign headquarters. KMBC News in Missouri reported that McCaskill intends to pursue legal action after the conservative group Project Veritas secretly recorded staffers talking about how they handle Planned Parenthood donations. McCaskill's campaign did not comment Wednesday night on the possibility of legal action, but pointed to a statement criticizing Hawley for his inaction after the video was released....

This year’s high-stakes midterm elections are fast approaching, and much ink has been spilled about a surge in women candidates running for office. Unfortunately, most of the hype has focused on only one type of woman: anti-Trump, pro-abortion, and angry about it. What about the millions of women and men who are eager to see more protections for unborn children and their mothers – who revere the Constitution and want more fair, impartial judges like Justice Kavanaugh appointed? Who is running to represent folks who not only decline the pink hats and handmaid outfits, but are happy about the direction...

A pro-life advocate was taken to the hospital Monday after he was punched in the face and knocked to the ground outside a Planned Parenthood in Naples, Florida. The attack is the latest in a growing list of assaults, vandalism, threats and other violence against pro-life advocates. According to the Naples Daily News, witnesses said Joe Alger, 65, of Marco Island, was praying the rosary on the sidewalk Monday morning when a man came out of the Planned Parenthood abortion facility and approached him. Carol Gentile, a regular pro-life advocate at the abortion facility, told the newspaper the man punched...

Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill made a call to action Monday for the U.S. Supreme Court to take on a critical pro-life case. Hill said he wants the Supreme Court to rule on a lawsuit about a 2016 pro-life law that bans abortions performed because of the unborn child’s race, gender or disability, such as Down syndrome. It also requires medical facilities to bury or cremate fetal remains. According to Indiana Public Media, Hill said the fetal characteristic abortion ban guards against discrimination. He also argued the state has the right to require fetal remains to be treated with dignity....

Planned Parenthood and the ACLU slammed Indiana leaders Monday for striving to protect unborn babies with Down syndrome from discrimination. Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear his appeal and uphold a 2016 state law that prohibits discriminatory abortions based on an unborn baby’s disability, gender or race. Vice President Mike Pence, who was Indiana’s governor at the time, signed the law. Planned Parenthood and the ACLU challenged the law in court, and on Monday, criticized the state for defending it, The Times reports. “[The law] ignores long-settled precedent from the Supreme Court that a...

October 11, 2018 – A feminist author has taken it upon herself to elevate former Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards and a variety of other pro-abortion figures to sainthood. Released in March by Penguin Random House, Julia Pierpont’s The Little Book of Feminist Saints is billed as a collection of “short, vibrant, and surprising biographies” matched to “stunning full-color portraits of secular female ‘saints’: champions of strength and progress.” “The idea came from the Catholic saint-of-the-day book, the kind one might read as a source of daily inspiration throughout the calendar year,” Pierpont explained. “The achievements of women haven’t been...

(CNSNews.com) -- Witches plan to place a public hex on Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh through an occult ritual on Oct. 20 in New York City, an event sponsored by Catland Books, which describes itself as "Brooklyn's premiere occult bookshop & spiritual community space." The planned ritual has been advertised on Facebook.  "Please join us for a public hex on Brett Kavanaugh, upon all rapists and the patriarchy at large which emboldens, rewards and protects them," reads the description for the event, "Ritual to Hex Brett Kavanaugh." "We are embracing witchcraft's true roots as the magik of the poor, the...

The states in these two cases determined that giving Planned Parenthood state Medicaid funds was not a wise use of their limited resources, and that they could better serve their citizens by reallocating those funds to other comprehensive and preventive health organizations that are run more responsibly and offer a broader range of services. Without intervention by the Supreme Court, states like Kansas and Louisiana will be forced to continue to provide tax dollars to the nation’s largest abortion business.

Kermit Gosnell, the abortionist currently on trial for murdering seven babies and a woman, is being portrayed as an aberration. “He is not typical,” writes Irin Carmon at Salon.com, “and there was, and has been, swift renunciation of his facility.” I hope you’ll join me in congratulating the feminist left for renouncing a mass murderer. But as long as pro-choicers are calling Gosnell an outlier, it’s time to examine some of the historical circumstances surrounding his abortion mill, specifically those involving a man named Harvey Karman. Karman was an abortionist and fake doctor who forged his medical credentials. He was...

Kermit Gosnell, who is currently on trial awaiting a verdict on over one hundred abortion-related criminal charges, was responsible not the deaths not only of thousands of pre-born children, but also of at least two mothers. Semika Shaw was killed by Kermit Gosnell in the year 2000 – ten years before he was shut down. Despite complaints from her family after Semika’s death at the hands of the abortionist, Gosnell continued to operate, enshrined by the silence and blind eyes he received from medical and governmental authorities alike. Semika Shaw was only twenty-two years old when she died. She was...

I sat in silence and bowed my head for the closing prayer as I had done nearly every Sunday for the past 21 years. This Sunday, however, I wanted to be at home, in tears, as I had found out the night before that I was pregnant. Thoughts were racing through my head of tragic visions of my future. I was 21, not married. I was once the "church girl." However, not one of those thoughts that were flooding my mind involved reaching out to my church. I'd seen the way that my church had treated my sister when she...

FULL TITLE: Planned Parenthood Posts Job Opening for “Judicial Nominations Director” After Kavanaugh Secures Votes From the Department of “You can’t make this stuff up.” Just minutes after Senator Susan Collins and Senator Joe Manchin announced that they would be supporting Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination for the Supreme Court, the Planned Parenthood abortion company posted a job opening for a “Judicial Nominations Director.” The announcement hit Twitter less than half an hour after Collins wrapped up her lengthy speech defending her vote for Kavanaugh. Here’s what the job entails: Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) is the nation’s leading women’s...

“Vote NO on #Kavanaugh Or else we’re coming for you,” Planned Parenthood warned senators on Thursday. In a tweet, Planned Parenthood Action issued the threat regarding the upcoming Senate vote on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh: Roses are red Violets are blue Vote NO on #Kavanaugh Or else we’re coming for you

Planned Parenthood meticulously stared planning the takedown of Brett Kavanaugh as long as six years ago The takedown of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh didn’t start with Christine Blasey Ford or Senator Dianne Feinstein. It started with a Planned Parenthood photoshopped ad i way back in November of 2012 that depicted Kavanaugh as a “newcomer”. With all the histrionics of Ford now jarring front page headlines, it is not easy too see that she’s only the bit player in the #MeToo assassination of Brett Kavanaugh, a prop moved forward by Planned Parenthood when the time was right.

Jamie Lee Curtis, Chelsea Handler, Samantha Bee, Alyssa Milano, and more major Hollywood women joined left-wing activist organizations Planned Parenthood and NARAL to push an anti-Brett Kavanaugh “walkout” Monday in solidarity with his accuser Judge Brett Kavanaugh.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) says she doesn’t believe Brett Kavanaugh will overturn a landmark abortion ruling if he’s confirmed to the Supreme Court. "Well first of all I do not believe he's going to repeal Roe v. Wade," Collins told Showtime’s "The Circus," when asked about how she could potentially be "the vote" that puts Kavanaugh on the court and leads to the landmark 1973 case being repealed.

It’s always fascinating to me how people can go from a situation of brutal oppression to becoming the oppressors. Some free blacks owned slaves and profited from the slave trade. Dr. Henry Morgantaler, a survivor of the Holocaust, became the leading abortionist in Canada. And now, Dr. Leana Wen—a political refugee from the brutal communist regime of China that has killed over 336 million humans via abortion (and many forced)—becomes the president of a billion-dollar organization that kills for a living. Planned Parenthood profits from the deaths of 320,000 innocent human beings each year in the name of “equality”. Mainstream...
