Two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton attacked U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh Wednesday as Senate hearings on his confirmation continued. Clinton, who supported a radical pro-abortion agenda during her campaigns, does not like the idea that Kavanaugh could be the fifth conservative justice on the high court and a possible vote on abortion restrictions and the overturning of Roe v. Wade. “If Brett Kavanaugh becomes a Supreme Court justice, will he help gut or overturn Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion in America? Yes, of course he will,” Clinton wrote on Twitter. Clinton continued: “A few weeks before Kavanaugh’s...

FULL TITLE: 'You're Trump's puppet!' Protesters erupt AGAIN during second day of Supreme Court confirmation hearing as they call Brett Kavanaugh a 'sham justice' and red-gowned 'handmaids' line Senate hallways The 'handmaids' were lined up in the hall again Wednesday in a Senate office building as Judge Brett Kavanaugh faced his first day of aggressive political ping-pong with lawmakers who will determine whether he takes a seat on the Supreme Court.

The field of bioethics seems to be less and less concerned about what is considered ethical in medicine, and more and more concerned with justifying a culture of death. It’s no longer enough for abortion to be legal; bioethicists are increasingly calling for the murder of born infants to be permitted. And though these calls for legal infanticide are always met with outrage, they continue to come. Finnish bioethicist Joona Räsänen has argued in the medical journal Bioethics that pro-life arguments against infanticide “are not convincing” and “cannot show infanticide to be immoral.” While Räsänen has not argued for infanticide...

Sarah Weddington, the Texas attorney who argued for abortion in Roe v. Wade, expressed concern that U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh has “the determination” to overturn the infamous case. Speaking with Glamour this week, Weddington echoed the worries of many in the abortion industry about the future of the high court and abortion on demand. If confirmed, Kavanaugh would swing the court to a 5-4 conservative majority and open up the possibility of overturning Roe v. Wade and restoring protections to unborn babies. Senate hearings about his confirmation begin Tuesday. “For several years now I’ve talked about how my...

During my journey to confirmation, I learned that throughout the Church's history, there have been great saints and terrible sinners, even in the highest offices of the Church. Of the twelve apostles, Judas betrayed Jesus, and Peter, the first bishop of Rome, denied Him three times. Christ Himself predicted that scandals would be inevitable in the Church (Matthew 18:7). But Christ promised to never abandon His Bride (Ephesians 5:25-7). My faith was not shaken by revelations about abuse and cover-ups at the highest levels of the Church... The ills of the world have infected our Church. This is not surprising—no...

South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster is not giving up on his promise to protect his state taxpayers from funding the largest abortion group in America, Planned Parenthood. On Thursday, McMaster said he plans to contest a judge’s ruling blocking his efforts, WCNC News reports. “My position is the taxpayers of South Carolina who do not support the promotion of abortion should not have to support with their tax money the promotion of abortion, and that’s what Planned Parenthood does any way you look at it,” McMaster told reporters. In July, McMaster took a bold stance against the abortion industry by...

The July issue of her “O” magazine featured “Shout Your Abortion” founder Amelia Bonow in its “Inspiration” section, CNS News reported. Bonow, who began the campaign to urge women to brag about their abortions, soon will be coming out with a new book by the same title. “Abortion is normal,” Bonow’s campaign claims repeatedly and backs up with stories of women who say their abortions (unborn babies’ deaths) were a good thing. “My abortion...

Protestant leader Franklin Graham called out an Oregon business Tuesday for creating an ice cream flavor to celebrate the legalized killing of unborn babies. Graham, the son of the late evangelist Billy Graham, said abortion activists are “absolutely frantic” about President Donald Trump appointing a second conservative justice to the U.S. Supreme Court. “They’re holding rallies and pulling out all the stops in a campaign to try to stop Judge [Brett] Kavanaugh from being confirmed to the Supreme Court,” he wrote on Facebook. “NARAL Oregon is even partnering with a Portland ice-cream parlor for a pro-abortion themed ice cream flavor—’Rocky...

A pro-choice author describes an abortion clinic where she visited: “In all the years I have spent writing and thinking about a woman’s right to choose, I have never set foot in an abortion clinic, because I have never needed to. In my mind, I had always pictured a clean and comfortable place. This was no Westchester clinic. The place was dirty and dark and the women in the room outside were standing, as there were no chairs. A woman beside me was crying… In the press, the issue of the right to choose will be reduced to the terminology...

She noticed there was blood all over the chairs and on the floor. “But I just kept going,” she said. Davida was hooked up to an IV and her midsection strapped with a fetal...

From one woman who had an abortion: “I was not thrilled at all about this pregnancy, but I knew I could never abort one of my children. It’s something I have always felt so strongly about. My husband, on the other hand, told me that there was absolutely no way we could afford to bring another life into this world and our only option was to abort. It didn’t matter what he said at the time because, despite the unfortunate circumstances, this baby was already a part of me and I had already loved it. I tried keep a positive...

In an obituary of abortionist Jane Hodgson it says: “At the age of 76, Hodgson continued to perform abortions, traveling 150 miles from her home, which was then in St. Paul, Minn., to Duluth, Minn., because doctors there refused.” It then quotes Hodgson saying: “They really can’t get anybody else,” she told a reporter for the Houston Chronicle in 1992. “It’s ridiculous, really…. I think the young generation of medical students, with the exception of women, are not (interested in this training).” Jocelyn Y.
