The 46th March for Life is scheduled to happen Friday in Washington, D.C., despite the ongoing government shutdown, according to organizers of the event.

The march, which started in 1973 as a small demonstration protesting against abortion and the landmark Supreme Court decisions of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, has grown to be the largest pro-life event, according to march organizers.

President Donald Trump will be among those addressing the march, but he will not be there in person. Instead, Trump will address the crowd via a pre-recorded video, Fox News reported.

The pinkos who run the so-called “news” media will probably refuse to cover it again this year. No matter what.

This is the core tactic of fake news. Not so much fabrication of “news” (although it has been caught doing that more than once) as the biased selection on what news to report and how much emphasis to give it.
