Harris liked to brag about using “a huge stick” as a prosecutor in San Francisco, where she regularly threatened poor parents with jail time in her efforts to craft social policy — which wasn’t her job. It’s true that Harris threw a lot of people in jail to bolster her political fortunes. Some of them likely innocent. And judging from her disposition, she would throw a lot of more people into jail, if she could. When pro-life journalist David Daleiden published videos of Planned Parenthood executives nonchalantly discussing the selling of body parts, Harris had his home raided, seized evidence...

New York Times national religion correspondent Elizabeth Dias and national politics correspondent Lisa Lerer joined The Daily Show temp hosts Desi Lydic and Jordan Klepper on Comedy Central on Wednesday to promote their new book, The Fall of Roe: The Rise of a New America. It was a mournful time for all as they mused about “radicalized” Republicans and how “horrified” they are about the book's subject. Lydic claimed that, “we enjoyed your book very much and also were thoroughly horrified by all of it, obviously. But so many Americans felt, kind of, blindsided when Roe v. Wade was overturned,...

Since the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization overturned Roe v. Wade, states have been allowed to pass their own abortion laws. As certain states began to pass stronger protections for preborn human beings, other states began to eliminate protections — and ‘abortion travel’ became a hot-button issue. Some companies began funding abortion travel as a “benefit” to employees, and abortion funds began to pay for airfare, hotels, and the like in order to assist women living in pro-life states to obtain abortions in states where abortion was more available. Since that time, the Guttmacher Institute...

The Mayor of Monroe North Carolina, has done the Lord’s work by issuing a proclamation recognizing the anniversary of the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Mayor Robert Burns, who also “encourages all citizens to reflect on the significance of this decision” explains “It’s my honor to release a Proclamation on the momentous occasion that happened two years ago: the overturning of Roe V. Wade…I believe and hope for a day when abortion will ultimately end, but until that day, I will be a voice for the voiceless in and out of the womb. “ In a message on X, Mayor...

Joy Reid, host of MSNBC’s The ReidOut, was joined by abortion activists Shannon Brewer and NARAL president Mini Timmaraju to discuss the second anniversary of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade. While the three lamented the decision and its effects throughout the country, Timmaraju outrageously claimed that the U.S. had consequently become a “segregated society.” To open the segment, Reid played a video of Vice President Kamala Harris audaciously proclaiming, “In the case of the stealing of reproductive freedom from the women of America, Donald Trump is guilty.” She then cited...

Monday June 24, 2024 marked the two year anniversary of the Dobbs decision when the Supreme Court of the United States decided to overturn Roe v. Wade. On Monday, both pro-lifers and pro-aborts gathered in front of the Court to share their opinions. The pro-aborts, in partnership with the Women’s March, put on an event called DC Women’s Strike. They demanded that abortion was part of "reproduction" and "healthcare." MRCTV spoke to some attendees. They insisted that those who thought abortion was murder, who know that life begins at conception and who care about both babies and their moms are...

On Monday, the country marks two years since the Supreme Court overturned half a century of legalized abortion nationwide, a tumultuous two years that has held both wins and losses for the pro-life movement. Since the landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision reversed Roe vs. Wade in June 2022, a total of 24 states have passed bans on abortion at 15 weeks or earlier. The Dobbs case dealt with a 2018 Mississippi law banning most abortions after 15 weeks. Bans or restrictions on abortion are currently in effect in 21 states, namely Texas, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina,...

Two women shared this week their stories of how overturning Roe v. Wade saved their babies ahead of the second anniversary of the Supreme Court’s ruling next week. The two mothers joined Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America for a video press call on Thursday ahead of June 24, the anniversary of the landmark Dobbs decision, which reversed nearly 50 years of legal abortion nationwide. One mother, Ashley, described how she and her husband, Dusty, struggled to have children but were able to adopt their one-year-old son, Jacob, after his birth mother decided against having an abortion. Jacob’s birth mother had...

John Mannion, a New York state senator, is currently running for congressional office. And in a new campaign ad, he made an incredible claim about his mother allegedly being forced to carry a stillborn baby for two months prior to Roe v. Wade. In the ad, titled “Mother,” Mannion spoke about a tragic stillbirth his mother experienced in the 1960s. “Before she passed away, my mother shared her most painful memory,” Mannion said in the ad. “See, before I was born, she lost her pregnancy at seven months. That was before Roe v. Wade. So, she was forced to carry...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in a new interview criticized her fellow Democrats for their response to the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade, arguing they could have “done more.” “We didn’t take it seriously, and we didn’t understand the threat,” Clinton said in an interview with The New York Times, published Saturday. “Most Democrats, most Americans, did not realize we are in an existential struggle for the future of this country.” “We could have done more to fight,” she added. (snip) The former presidential nominee also slammed the conservative justices on the high court who handed down...

An abortion advocacy group has released a report claiming that the number of abortions in the United States has increased since Roe v. Wade was overturned. A pro-life researcher, however, believes the data might be wrong. The Society of Family Planning's latest #WeCount report, released earlier this month, estimates that, despite restrictions in some states, there were, on average, 86,000 abortions performed per month in the U.S. in 2023, exceeding levels reported before the June 2022 U.S. Supreme Court ruling Dobbs v. Jackson, which overturned Roe. SFP started its #WeCount effort to assess the number of monthly abortions by state...

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said on Friday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that if the Supreme Court can overturn Roe v. Wade, then “democracy can fall.” Jeffries said, “It’s important for the American people to understand that if Roe v. Wade can fall, anything can fall. Social Security itself can fall. Medicare can fall. The Affordable Care Act can fall. Democracy can fall. Brown v. Board of Education can fall, as Justice Thomas made clear in his concurring observation and opinion yesterday. So, everything we care about is going to be on the ballot in November. Including getting the federal...

On his Real Time show on HBO, Bill Maher bluntly agreed that abortion is murder, and he favors it, since there are eight million people on Earth already. As they brought up Arizona and how that’s going to be a disaster for Republicans, Maher described pro-life Americans this way: “They think it’s murder, and it kind of is. I’m just okay with that. I am. There [are] 8 billion people in the world, I’m sorry, we won’t miss you. That’s my position on that.” British journalists Gillian Tett and Piers Morgan told Maher his view was "harsh." They agree on...

Back when there were still two Germanys, one a parliamentary democracy aligned with the West and one a Soviet satellite surveillance state, I had trouble remembering which was the Federal Republic and which the Democratic Republic—until I realized that the one calling itself democratic wasn’t. Even today, North Korea’s official name is the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. The least democratic regimes in the world pretend to be the most democratic. Then as now, Marxists and those who have learned from them often justify abuse of language by redefining the key term. Words come to mean their opposite. To the...

It's been one whole year since Roe v. Wade was overturned, which means they've been making abortion illegal all over the place. So these are dark times, as NPR and InsiderNews have reported: https://www.npr.org/2022/10/22/113072... Because now that Roe v. Wade is overturned, a woman can get pregnant just by having sex. "I find myself in this really bizarre state where I'm asking guys about things like their values and trustworthiness before sleeping with them." "Before a girl would have sex with me, but now she's asking me all these dumb questions like, "Do you love me?" and "What happens if...

“The bear is more predictable.”“You don’t understand the point of the question.”“You are uncompassionate.”“You have internalized misogyny.”“You’ve never experienced trauma, and it shows.”“Remove the bear from the equation and what’s left?” Signed, the people who picked the bear.I am a 50 year old woman. I keep thinking of how when I was growing up, it was mostly acknowledged (except for a few angry feminists that roamed college campuses) that we had won the feminist revolution. We were all happy and no longer felt the need to fight men anymore. Women were just as personally responsible for their failures or their...

As arguments surrounding exceptions to laws protecting preborn children from abortion continue to rage, all the way to the Supreme Court, abortion advocates have been claiming that pro-life laws are a drastic threat to women’s lives — and one op-ed claims this danger is engineered on purpose. The extremely pro-abortion Ms. Magazine featured an article by Tess Graham in response to the case currently being heard by the Supreme Court regarding Idaho’s laws protecting preborn children from abortion. In Idaho vs. the United States, the Supreme Court is hearing a lawsuit from the Department of Justice (DOJ) claiming the state’s...

A recent study released by the University of Pittsburgh and Boston University has found that the number of individuals choosing permanent sterilization methods has continuously risen over the past few years. While the study focused on the sharp rise in sterilization following the Supreme Court’s overturn of Roe v. Wade with the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, it also notes that sterilization was already on the rise prior to Dobbs — reinforcing the trend in population decline seen worldwide. Per the report, which was published in the JAMA Health Forum, there was an immediate jump in tubal ligations...

President Joe Biden suffered another gaffe during a speaking event as he tried to paint his opponent, former President Donald Trump, as untrustworthy. Biden, at 81 years old, the oldest president in American history, appeared before supporters at a community college in Tampa, one week before Florida bans abortions past six weeks. He called out Trump, his 2024 general election opponent, as the sole person responsible for the 'cruelty and chaos' that's occurred after the overturn of Roe v. Wade. However, when he did so, he accidentally asked: 'How many times does he have to prove we can't be trusted?'...
