The Virginia House of Delegates proposed a bill legalizing abortion through all nine months. Delegate Kathy Tran (D-Fairfax) confirmed that abortion would be available to the mother even while in natural labor, as long as it was for the reason of “mental health.” The definition of “mental health” is obscure in the bill.
So, that’s that, pro-choicers. No more pretending this is about healthcare. No more pretending this is about “reproductive rights.” No more pretending this is about removing a non-human “clump of cells.” No more “safe, legal and rare” business. No more pretending this is about compassion for the mother or child. This is, and always has been, about ensuring a woman has the ability to walk away from parenthood the same way a man can. We’ve always known it; we’ve just been waiting for you guys to out yourselves. Thanks so much for coming through.
As I’ve stated in a previous piece, abortion is about feminists’ obsession with equality through homogeny. With that being the motive, why stop at the first or second trimester? Heck, why stop at birth?
In fact, Virginia governor Ralph Northam explained clearly that this abortion bill would indeed allow doctors to kill the child after birth. In a radio interview, Gov. Northam said
“If a mother is in labor. . .the infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”
So, the baby is out of the womb, cord is cut, and she’s lying on the table next to the delivery bed. That child, according to Governor Northam, could be killed presumably the same way a full-term baby is killed in a partial-birth abortion: an incision is made in the back of her skull and her brain is sucked out through a vacuum until her head collapses. Only a few moments earlier she was crying. Only seconds before she was instinctively longing to be held and fed. Now, she’s nothing more than an object to be obliterated, a hindrance to be eliminated.
Northam specified in the interview that this would typically be in cases where the baby is deformed or isn’t viable. This probably isn’t true, but, even if it were, we’re talking nothing short of eugenics. We’re talking nothing less than infanticide. Yet the real story, according to outlets like The Washington Post and CBS, is the “conservative backlash.” Not that we’re condoning the brutal murder of babies under the guise of sympathy. Not that we’re seeing human selfishness manifest itself in the ugliest way possible. Not that we’re experiencing a fundamental shift in the American conscience. No—the real headline is that we right-wingers are freaking out.
If only everyone were panicking half as much as we “out-there” conservative are. Abortion, and, in this case, late-term abortion and infanticide, is the ultimate denigration of our nation’s collective soul. The left talks a big game when it comes to showing empathy for the marginalized and weak, yet few of them shed a single tear for the slaughter of the unborn, the most vulnerable and marginalized among us.
Pro-lifers have long been told we’re making a mountain out of a molehill. If we don’t want an abortion, we just shouldn’t have one, they say. No, this isn’t infanticide. No, this isn’t eugenics. It’s a woman’s body. Her choice. It’s about healthcare. It’s about freedom. It’s not even a person in there. It’s about compassion for unfit mothers and unwanted children, they say.
But now the facade is gone, the charade is over. It’s probably a bit of a relief for pro-choicers to simply admit they’re okay with murdering a defenseless human being. They can finally just admit “their truth.”
Thank you, New York and Virginia, for proving us right yet again: we’re not the extremists. You are.
This is overreach beyond any rational belief!
The next logical step will be the mandatory abortion of any child of a conservative family and the mandatory sterilizaton of same!
Liberalism is plain evil incarnate!
That is assuming there is someone in New York who will challenge it and a judge that will overrule the law.
We know what's coming next.
Nobelists Crick left, and Watson --- discoverers of the double helix.
It was Dr Crick who suggested that newborn babies NOT be issued birth certificates
until three days after birth ...........until they have passed a "quality evaluation test."
===============================================
There is NO mention of abortion here.....this is flat-out infanticide.
When appraised of babies not issued birth certificates until they pass Dr Crick’s “Quality Evaluation Test,” most people think that’s ridiculous.
What Test, they ask?

NEWBORN SCREENING TESTS FOR YOUR BABY—KEY POINTS
All babies in the United States get newborn screening. Each state decides which tests are required. Ask your baby’s health care provider which tests your baby will have.
If your baby has a newborn screening test result that’s not normal, he should have a different kind of test to make sure he’s healthy. Newborn screening helps identify rare but serious health conditions. Many of these can be treated if found early.
What is newborn screening?
Before your baby leaves the hospital, he has some special tests called newborn screening. Newborn screening checks for serious but rare conditions that your baby has at birth. It includes blood, hearing and heart screening.
Your baby can be born with a health condition but may not show any signs of the problem at first. If a health condition is found early with newborn screening, it often can be treated. This makes it possible to avoid more serious health problems for your baby.
When is newborn screening done?
Your baby gets newborn screening before he leaves the hospital after birth, when he’s 1 to 2 days old. If your baby isn’t born in a hospital, talk to her provider about getting newborn screening at 1 to 2 days of age. Some states require that babies have newborn screening again about 2 weeks later.
How does newborn screening happen?
There are three parts to newborn screening:
Blood test. Most newborn screening is done with a blood test. A health care provider pricks your baby’s heel to get a few drops of blood. He collects the blood on a special paper and sends it to a lab within 1 day (24 hours) for testing. Your provider gets results for serious health conditions within 5 days and results for all conditions by 7 days.
Following these timeframes is critical in case your baby has a disorder that needs to be identified and treated as early as possible. You can check with the hospital staff to make sure your baby’s sample was sent to the lab on time.
Hearing screening. For this test, your provider places a tiny, soft speaker in your baby’s ear to check how your baby responds to sound. Your baby gets this test before she leaves the hospital after birth.
Heart screening. This test is called pulse oximetry. It checks the amount of oxygen in your baby’s blood by using a sensor attached to his finger or foot. This test is used to screen babies for a group of heart conditions called critical congenital heart disease (CCHD). Your baby gets this test before he leaves the hospital after birth.
To find out more about the timeframes used for sending blood samples to lab and getting test results back, ask your baby’s provider or the hospital staff. Some states have websites with information about how well your hospital uses the timeframes. Check your state’s health department website to see if this information is available about your hospital.
What if newborn screening results aren’t normal?
Most newborn screening results are normal. In rare cases when your baby’s screening results aren’t normal, it may simply mean she needs more testing. Your baby’s provider then recommends another kind of test, called a diagnostic test, to see if there is a health problem. If the diagnostic test results are normal, no more testing is needed. If the diagnostic test results are not normal, your provider can guide you about next steps for your baby.
If one of your children has a health condition, will another have it, too? Almost all of the health conditions found by newborn screening are inherited. This means they are passed from parents to children.When one child in a family has an inherited health condition, the chance of a brother or sister having the same condition is higher than if no child in the family has the condition.
If you have a child with a health condition and you want to have another baby, talk to your health care provider or a genetic counselor. A genetic counselor is a person who is trained to know about genetics, birth defects and other medical problems that run in families.
Sometimes hearing loss is not inherited. For example, it can be caused by an infection during pregnancy. In this case, it usually doesn’t happen in another pregnancy.
What kinds of health conditions does newborn screening test for?
Each state requires different tests, so ask your baby’s health care provider which tests your baby will have. You also can visit babysfirsttest.org to find out what conditions your state tests for.
The March of Dimes would like to see all babies in all states screened for at least 34 health conditions. Many of these health conditions can be treated if found early. The health conditions are divided into seven groups:
1. Organic acid metabolism disorders. Babies with these problems don’t metabolize food correctly. Metabolism is the way your body changes food into the energy it needs to breathe, digest and grow.
Isovaleric acidemia (IVA)
Glutaric acidemia (GAI)
Hydroxymethylglutaric aciduria, also called 3-OH 3-CH3 glutaric aciduria (HMG)
Multiple carboxylase deficiency (MCD)
Methylmalonic acidemia, mutase deficiency (MUT)
3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency (3MCC)
Methylmalonic acidemia, CBl A and CBl B forms
Propionic acidemia (PROP)
Beta-ketothiolase deficiency (BKT)
2. Fatty acid oxidation disorders. When your body runs out of sugar, it usually breaks down fat for energy. A baby with fatty acid oxidation problems can’t change fat into energy.
Medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCAD)
Very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCAD)
Long-chain hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (LCHAD)
Trifunctional protein deficiency (TFP) Carnitine uptake defect (CUD)
3. Amino acid metabolism disorders. Babies with these problems can’t process amino acids in the body. Amino acids help the body make protein.
Phenylketonuria (PKU)
Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD)
Homocystinuria (HCY)
Citrullinemia (CIT)
Argininosuccinic acidemia (ASA)
Tyrosinemia type I (TYR I)
4. Hemoglobin disorders. These problems affect red blood cells. Red blood cells carry oxygen to the rest of the body.
Sickle cell anemia
Hb S/beta-thalassemia (Hb S/Th)
Hb S/C disease (Hb S/C)
5. Lysosomal storage disorders. Babies with these problems can’t break down certain types of complex sugars. This causes harmful substances to build up in the body.
Mucopolysaccharidosis Type-1 (MPS 1)
Pompe disease
6. Adrenal gland disorders. These problems affect the adrenal glands, which sit on top of the kidneys and help the body make hormones.
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH)
X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD)
7. Other disorders
Congenital hypothyroidism (HYPOTH)
Biotinidase deficiency (BIO)
Galactosemia (GALT)
Hearing loss (HEAR)
Cystic fibrosis (CF)
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID)
Critical congenital heart disease (CCHD)

Oh.
My.
God.
As a nation, we have crossed a rubicon. Legal infanticide.
If the mother doesn’t want the child, the father should
be forced to provide care for it at least until adoption.
...After all one is not really a person until one reaches adulthood.
Define Person, This is the Demon being unleashed by the Progressives. Keep moving goalposts, eventually anyone who does not agree with The Spirit of the Age, will be executed.
C.S. Lewis touched on this in That Hideous Strength
You said it, and we will pay for it.
Trump really is the best thing to happen to the GOP in decades
There are so many issues here. This has to be challenged. Once a child is born what about the bill of rights - right to life. It’s not about “women’s health” anymore or “women’s rights”. The baby is alive outside the womb and has rights.
What the heck is wrong with doctors these days. Their hippocratic oath. Do no harm. Other doctors say no reason for an abortion in the 3rd trimester. I see a long term agenda stretching way back. Fighting the ban on partial birth abortion, Obama refusing to sign the born alive protection act. Rejection of “personhood” or “heartbeat” legislation. Just d@mn. If this is about baby parts I hope James O’Keefe and others are all over it. If this is why documents are slow to declas just do it already. This is beyond horrific. Jesus Himself must be weeping.
Abortion has been an issue since I was a young teen.
NEVER had I seen a pro-abortion person who advocated very late term abortion or especially abortion up to BIRTH!
Such a person would rightfully, even by other abortion-is-a-woman’s-business/right advocates, be called a baby murderer.
But now, here they are,coming out of the woodwork, without shame, and even pride, in the ghoulish advocacy!
What happened to our country?!?!???
How does being sickened by the thought of killing a full term baby not yet born make me a alt-Right or far-right person?
He meant the Virginia legislature, not the US House.
Tucker Carlson tried to have a discussion about the NY and VA legalized murder bills with a robotic leftard harridan who responded to each question with rapid-fire talking points about Repubs wanting to send women back to the days of back alley abortions, forbidding them from having control of their bodies, and blah, blah, blah. She was completely disgusting. This is what we’ll be hearing from now on if ANYONE objects to this evil infanticide.
And prior to being governor, Ralph Northam’s line of work was . . . wait for it . . . PEDIATRICS!
Ya the fact that the GOP doesn’t think so should tell you all you need to know
Instead, they use a long needle and inject poison directly into the baby's heart in utero, causing a fatal heart attack (which I'm sure is horrifically painful for the child), and then induce labor to deliver the dead baby.
It is just as hazardous for the mother as a full-term live birth pregnancy, so any pretense that it's "required for the health of the mother" is a flat-out lie.
I hope doctors don’t start telling women their babies died so they can sell their body parts after they’re born.
Then pass the babies off as a boarded at nine months.
It’s MURDER!! M U R D E R!! Women KILLING THIER OWN KIDS!!! No WONDER women aren’t RESPECTED anymore.
You might think that's an exaggeration - but in a few years it could be an excuse used to murder traditional Americans.
