Amy Coney Barrett: Roe v. Wade is Not a “Super-Precedent” That Can’t be Overturned
Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett says she doesn’t consider the Roe v. Wade decision that allowed abortion on demand a “super-precedent” that can’t be overturned. Judge Barrett said Roe is not in same category as the Supreme Court’s 1954 Brown v. Board of Education ruling, which declared segregated public schools unconstitutional because there is still a massive debate about whether Roe is legitimate. Barrett says no one talks about overturning the Brown decision but explained that significant disagreement over it “indicates Roe doesn’t fall in that category.” She says it’s “not a case that’s universally accepted.” “Well people use super precedent differently. The way that it’s used in the scholarship and the way that …

Senate Democrats Trash Amy Coney Barrett: The Right to Kill Babies in Abortions “is at Stake”
Democrat senators backed by the pro-abortion movement blasted U.S. Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett as a threat to Roe v. Wade on Monday during her Senate confirmation hearing. Planned Parenthood favorites Sens. Kamala Harris, of California, and Cory Booker, of New Jersey, especially tried to drum up fear by claiming women’s rights are at stake. And by women’s rights, they mean abortion on demand. Barrett believes in “the value of human life from conception to natural death.” “People are scared right now … because they know what a future without the protections of Roe v. Wade looks like,” Booker said at the hearing. “Without Roe v. Wade, our country looks like people being denied the ability to make decisions about their …
Judge Amy Coney Barrett: “I Believe in the Power of Prayer.” Thank You for “Praying for Me”
Judge Amy Coney Barrett delivered her opening remarks to the Senate Judiciary Committee this morning and she made two major points. First, she talked about the proper role of the courts, saying they are not supposed to make law and legislate from the bench. She also refused to back down to attacks from Senate Democrats on her faith, saying she strongly believes in prayer and thanked the many Americans who are prayer for her amid those attacks on her Christian faith. “I believe in the power of prayer and it’s been uplifting that so many people have been praying for me,” Judge Barrett told members of the judicial panel. “Nothing is more important to me, …

WV makes nationwide news again with pro-life leadership
The Christian Post’s national headline reads: “W.Va. governor signs law requiring doctors to help babies born alive after abortion.” It’s newsworthy that our WV legislators succeeded in bipartisan passage of the very thing federal lawmakers can’t even bring to the floor: actionable protection for babies who survive abortionists’ best efforts to kill them. The Mountain State’s leadership continues to be noticed, and we’re genuinely influencing other states with pro-life values. One of my WV friends responded with, “This is good, but how about we outlaw abortion…period!” That’s definitely the goal. Legal challenges are certain, however, and they would wind up at the U.S. Supreme Court’s door. So long as we lack a majority of justices …

Mom Regains Custody of 10-Month-Old Son Who Was Taken By CPS ‘Because She Left the Hospital Too Quickly’
Judge: “There is nothing in the record which would lead this court to believe that the mother is unwilling to provide the appropriate care for the child.” A Minnesota mom whose 10-month-old son was taken from her by child protective services because she didn’t stick around the hospital for a second opinion on his cough finally regained custody—four months and six court dates later. The judge ruled that the nurse who claimed Amanda Weber’s actions left her child, Zayvion, in “danger of dying,” had engaged in “disinformation.” According to Fox 9: It all started in May when Weber brought Zayvion to Children’s Hospital for a cough. Doctors determined Zayvion was fine and stable, and after a long …
Supreme Court to review Louisiana abortion regulations, could mean the end of Roe
The U.S. Supreme Court announced Friday it will take up the case of Louisiana’s admitting privileges law, which could have the potential of upending the high court’s most recent pro-abortion precedent. The court announced Friday it has decided to review June Medical Services LLC v. Gee, NPR reports. The case concerns Louisiana’s Act 620, which requires abortion centers to make arrangements for admitting women to hospitals within 30 miles in cases of life-threatening complications. The abortion industry’s attorneys argue the law is no different from the Texas law the Supreme Court struck down in 2016’s Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt; pro-lifers argue that not only was Hellerstedt wrongly decided, but that the Louisiana law is different from the Texas one. Read more …

VIDEO: CBS interview with National Right To Life’s Karen Cross
CBS News had the following to say about their interview with Karen Cross, who articulated well some key facts about abortion, the US Constitution, and the warped view of the 1973 SCOTUS that invented “out of whole cloth” a so-called “constitutional right” to abortion for any reason, at any time up until birth: “Anti-abortion advocate on plan to challenge Roe v. Wade“ “CBS News spoke to Karen Cross, the political director of National Right to Life, the oldest anti-abortion rights group in the country.
