Marcelio Moreira had never been to the United States. He didn’t speak much English. But soon after he learned his wife was pregnant last May, he knew he wanted his daughter to be American... “My daughter’s children and grandchildren will then have citizenship, too,” Naue rejoiced. “She can pass it down through the generations.” President Donald Trump doesn’t think it should be so easy to become an American. Calling birthright citizenship “absolutely ridiculous,” and incorrectly asserting that “we’re the only country in the world that does this,” he signed an executive order in January that revoked automatic citizenship for children...

A publicly funded university in California is killing babies in abortions and turning around and using their body parts for grisly research.

A crew of migrant gangbangers taken down by the NYPD was so brazen about their illegal gun profits that they posted a sick photo of a baby on a pile of their ill-gotten cash. In all, 10 high-ranking members of the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua — including the baby’s heartless mom — are out of commission or on the run thanks to a nationwide sweep.

Brittany Watts was arrested in 2023 and charged with abuse of a corpse following a stillbirth in her Ohio home, and her subsequent attempt to flush the second-trimester baby’s body down the toilet. Now, Watts has filed a lawsuit against the hospital, the City, two nurses, the OB/GYN overseeing her care, and multiple police officers.

Vague Language and Deceptive Tactics Could Cost ‘Wanted’ and ‘Unwanted’ Preborn Children Even More than Americans Might Realize Last week, Operation Rescue reported on the detrimental effect that pro-abortion ballot initiatives in ten separate states will have on children targeted by abortion. Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue, sounded the alarm, stating, “If these amendments pass, our nation will be struck by a large-scale slaughter of innocent babies like we’ve never seen before.” But there is a second, equally sinister aim of many of these ballot initiatives. When it comes to law-making, language is everything, and five of these ten...

A ballot initiative to expand abortion in Arizona will not use the phrase “unborn human being” after a judge rejected the language put forth by Republican lawmakers, deeming it too partisan and emotional. The case is now headed to the state Supreme Court. Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Christopher Whitten asked that the initiative, which seeks to expand abortion access from 15 weeks to 24 weeks, use more “neutral” language. Children born as young as 21 weeks have survived. Earlier this year, Arizonans for Access — a coalition of pro-abortion groups, including the ACLU of Arizona and Planned Parenthood of...

Presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump addressed the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) convention in Chicago on Wednesday, where he discussed what he called the Democratic party’s ‘radical’ position on abortion, with journalists Rachel Scott and Kadia Goba moderating. Abortion is not freedom Goba, a politics reporter at Semafor, asked Trump, “Do you think the Republican Party is getting too judgy about people’s lives, when you think about abortion and when you think about what JD Vance has said [about childless women]?” Trump replied, “I think that the Democrat party is the one that has the problem, I...
