Posted on by Posted in Nationwide ProLife News Leave a comment

Quote The Radiance Foundation: Well. That didn’t last long. Latest#PlannedParenthood president’s job gets aborted; fired in secret meeting because she’s not…pro-abortion enough! How did all that shilling work out for ya, Dr. Leana Wen? She wanted the abortion giant to be more medical. They want to be political. They’ve ALWAYS been political…and corrupt. Having an actual physician (willing to deny basic science) lead the abortion chain was good for PR.

“Kavanaugh debate was about abortion” – Ben Shapiro – Election Special – Abortion Segment

Posted on by Posted in Culture War, Legal-Courts, Nationwide ProLife News, Politics, Worldwide ProLife News Leave a comment

“The word ‘abortion’ is itself is a euphemism,” Shapiro says. “The procedure of abortion isn’t an anodyne polyp removal. It involves doing terminal violence to an unborn child. Ignoring that fact allows abortion advocates to avoid looking reality directly in the face…. This is a picture of a 19-week-old baby. This is a human child. This is not a ball of goo. This is not a cluster of cells….”
