A child under the age of 12 has died through euthanasia for the first time since the law was changed two years ago. Health minister Sophie Hermans said the case had been reported to the committee that reviews all late-term abortions and medically assisted deaths of children. Hermans revealed the child had died at the end of last year when she presented the committee’s annual report to parliament on Monday. No details about the child’s circumstances, such as their age, gender or their medical condition, were given. The death has also been referred to the public prosecution service, as happens...

A Polish doctor has been taken into custody after 34 human fetuses were found buried in the garden of her former home, the authorities said on Monday. Magdalena H. – a 57-year-old medical pathologist with no previous criminal record – is suspected of using the fetuses to perform experiments and now faces up to 12 years in prison. Her case has whipped up a storm in traditionally Catholic Poland, with many questioning how she managed to obtain the unborn babies’ bodies in a country with some of the strictest abortion laws in Europe. But a spokesman for the prosecutor’s office...

Four years ago today, Roe v. Wade died, predeceased by over 65 million preborn children. On June 24, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down the Dobbs v. Jackson decision, overturning the ruling that had mandated legal abortion in all 50 states. Within weeks, near-total abortion bans had gone into effect in Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming. An additional four states — Georgia, Iowa, Florida, and South Carolina — now have six-week “heartbeat” bans on the books. Twenty-eight states ban abortion at later stages. All these laws were impossible...

A New York-based pro-abortion nonprofit flew an aerial advertisement promoting abortion pills over the third round of the U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills on Saturday. The advertisement, which read “Abortion Pills by Mail,” was commissioned by the abortion advertising group Mayday Health and flew over the golf course for approximately 90 minutes, according to the New York Post. Fans who witnessed this spectacle, many with young children, were shocked and left speechless in an attempt to explain the meaning of the advertisement. “These kids kept pointing at the banner asking their parents ‘What does that say?’ And it was clear...

According to various reports, Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger introduced her euphemistic "Negro Project" on Sunday, June 25th, 1939, 87 years ago. And Black America has never been the same since. Key Takeaways: * Margaret Sanger's Negro Project — the targeting of Black Americans by eugenicists — could come to fruition in a relatively short period of time. * According to the Population Reference Bureau, dedicated to informing people around the world about the population, health and the environment, long periods of low fertility rates have an "irreversible consequence.” * The total fertility rate for Black women in 2023 is...

Chemical abortion now accounts for nearly two-thirds of all abortions in the United States, 63%, according to the Guttmacher Institute. That’s a dramatic shift in how abortions are performed, and it’s happening at the same moment that serious questions are emerging about whether women are being adequately protected from the risks involved. Here’s what the data actually shows. The FDA Label Doesn’t Tell the Whole Story The FDA’s current label for mifepristone, the first drug in the standard two-drug chemical abortion regimen, states that fewer than 0.5% of women experience serious adverse reactions. Abortion advocates have leaned heavily on this...

French journalist France Pierron is believed to have been taken off air in the wake of criticising Belgium's Jeremy Doku over his decision to return home for the birth of his first child. The Manchester City star's partner Shireen is heavily pregnant, with a due date in the second week of July - which could yet conflict with Belgium's knockout stage matches. Doku made public his decision to fly back to Belgium before returning to North America in the eventuality of his side still playing in the tournament, which Pierron expressed her extreme disapproval of. Pierron's outlet L'Equipe has since...

Texas Republican Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick had a forceful rebuke of Democrat U.S. Senate nominee James Talarico’s radical claims about Biblical doctrine, warning that the far-left candidate is putting himself in danger of “going to Hell.” Democrats initially framed Talarico, a Presbyterian seminarian and current Texas state representative, as a mainstream figure and rising political talent capable of appealing across partisan lines due in part to his ostensible faith background, which was swiftly quashed not only by his strident left-wing stances on abortion, sexuality, and more, but by claiming Christianity endorses them. The Christian Post reports that, while addressing the...

The Hereditary Prince of Liechtenstein announced that he would veto an attempt to legalize abortion in the country. In February, a committee in the Principality of Liechtenstein launched a popular initiative to decriminalize abortion in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. The initiators have also demanded that the ban on providing information on abortion be lifted and that health insurance cover the cost of an abortion. Hereditary Prince Alois of Liechtenstein announced that he would veto it once the Landtag, the Parliament of the principality, passed a law decriminalizing abortion. In an interview with Liechtensteiner Vaterland on Wednesday, he was...

A couple says their five-month-old infant was delivered alive at an abortion clinic in New Jersey — then trafficked for fetal organ harvesting. They named the little girl Clementine. Their allegations are detailed in the Center for Medical Progress’ new documentary, “What Happened to Clementine?” Filmmakers interviewed Tommy Kearns, Clementine’s father, and Clementine’s mother, who has chosen to remain anonymous. Clementine’s parents are wondering: Where is their child? Kearns told the Daily Caller: “If Clementine’s scalp is growing on the back of a lab rat, then the question is not scientific. It is about our child. How long is her...

(LifeSiteNews) — Nearly 60 Planned Parenthood facilities have shut down since January 2025, according to the pro-abortion Kaiser Family Foundation. While President Donald Trump has not embraced federal protections for all preborn babies, the report suggests his policies have played a role in at least reducing the number of Planned Parenthood locations across the country. “In the spring of 2025, the federal Title X family planning program withheld grant payments to 144 Planned Parenthood sites in 20 states,” the June 8 report stated. The report also cites the Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic Supreme Court decision in June 2025...

In 1972, Singapore's Health Minister called having a fourth child irresponsible. Newspapers ran it on their front pages. Then came the poster. Two girls under one umbrella, sharing one apple. "Girl or Boy, Two is Enough." It was on buses, in hospitals, in primary schools, on television. They stripped income tax relief from any fourth child. Hospital delivery fees went up on a sliding scale punishing each additional birth. If you refused to stop having kids, your family dropped in the public housing queue. Nurses at Kandang Kerbau Hospital chided women carrying a third child as if they'd committed a...

A baby born at just 23 weeks gestation is in the hospital indefinitely after the infant’s grandfather allegedly slipped his teenage daughter an abortion pill that sickened her and resulted in an emergency caesarean section. The alleged perpetrator, 39 year-old Jamelle Kelly, faces two felony charges, attempted first-degree feticide and domestic abuse/battery of a pregnant victim, after the Carencro Police Department determined he poisoned his 17 year-old with abortion pills that sent her to the hospital. Louisiana prohibits both surgical and chemical abortions and classifies mifepristone, the most popular abortion pill on the market, as a controlled dangerous substance. The...

Claire Brosseau survived multiple suicide attempts. Now, she wants the Canadian health care system to help facilitate her death. Brosseau is seeking what The New York Times referred to as “medical aid in dying” (MAID), “an end-of-life option that allows certain eligible individuals to legally request and obtain medications from their physician to end their life in a peaceful, humane, and dignified manner,” according to Death With Dignity, an advocacy group. At age eight, Brosseau made a journal entry that she wished to die. At age 14, her lifestyle included drinking, doing drugs, and having sex while a student in...

Over the years, I’ve read a lot of stories written from the pro-abortion perspective. How? Primarily by understanding the mechanisms they use to shield themselves from what they are doing to hapless unborn babies. It’s a very grim reminder of what we are up against. It’s not unusual to be lectured that snuffing out the lives of preborn babies is liberating/fulfilling/empowering. But “What I Learned From My Four Abortions” takes aggressive self-deception to a new level. You would expect nothing less from the Rewire News Group. It specializes in pushing abortion advocacy to the outer limits under the guise of...

YouTuber Jesse Ridgway, who announced June 3 that he and his wife had aborted their unborn son because the baby tested positive for Down syndrome, addressed his pro-life critics and people using “God and Jesus as their weapon.” The Ridgways have gone viral and made national headlines because of their decision. “A lot of the pro-life people are wishing death upon me and my wife, which is hypocritical,” he said in a video posted to X June 10. “And a lot of them use God and Jesus as their weapon and their justification, but like, it doesn’t matter to me...
