The preliminary hearings for pro-life heroes David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt concluded this week Wednesday in San Francisco. The pair are hopeful that sworn testimony over the past weeks demonstrates that those who trafficked aborted-baby body parts are guilty of crimes, not the whistleblowers who exposed it. Judge Christopher Hite’s ruling on whether the case will proceed to trial is expected within a month.

Below is our previous report of this matter:
Quote The Radiance Foundation:
More censorship from Apple Inc. After approving LifeSiteNews.com on the company’s news platform, they were abruptly banned for showing “intolerance”–code for embracing reason and faith. This is totalitarian tech. They are working together to make sure there are no ideological barriers to their “progressive” agenda. As we ramp up to the 2020 elections, we will find more purging, more censorship, and more demonization of those with Christian and/or conservative worldviews that clash with those who control the flow of information in this country. #BigTechBigBias #TheRealCollusion
Pro-life groups/ads have been blocked by Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, et al. As reported by IrishCentral and Lifesite: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg admitted that Facebook deliberately banned pro-life ads from the US during the Irish abortion referendum after the Irish government told them they had no laws either way to cover such foreign advertising.
The depth of their bias is being revealed. As reported by Mat Staver (Liberty Counsel): a senior software engineer at Google stepped out of the shadows to confirm that Google is “very politically biased.” Greg Coppola has a Ph.D. in computer science. This executive, who was with Google for five years, went on camera with Project Veritas to issue these explosive charges: “I’m very concerned to see Big Tech and the Big Media merge, basically, with a political party, with the Democrat Party…. We…are seeing tech use its power to manipulate people…. We have tech that really, first of all, is taking sides in a political contest.” Coppola, who works on artificial intelligence and Google Assistant—or at least he did, until the tech giant put him on “administrative leave” insists, “We’re just at a really important point in human history.” Coppola declares, “It’s time to decide. Are we going to just let the biggest tech companies decide who wins every election from now on?”

Nik had his limbs ripped off by an abortionist, but he is determined to live life to the fullest despite the brutal attack.
“I knew that I was supposed to be an aborted baby and it failed. It makes me angry because I would never want for that to happen to any kid. Anybody can become anything, and getting rid of a kid like that isn’t right to me.”

More than two years after its debut, a graphic suicide scene has been cut from the first season of 13 Reasons Why, Netflix announced Monday.
AFA has repeatedly urged Netflix to remove 13 Reasons Why from its lineup since the death of Anna Bright, a 14-year-old who mimicked the suicide scene after binge-watching the first season episodes.
Netflix has come under stronger scrutiny since a report last April showed suicides among U.S. kids aged 10 to 17 spiked to a 19-year high in the month following the release of 13 Reasons Why.
During April 2017 alone, 190 U.S. tweens and teens took their own lives. Their April 2017 suicide rate was .57 per 100,000 people, nearly 30 percent higher than in the preceding five years included in the study. An additional analysis found that the April rate was higher than in the previous 19 years, said lead author Jeff Bridge, a suicide researcher at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio.
By pulling the graphic suicide scene, Netflix has finally acknowledged the harmful influence that 13 Reasons Why is capable of inflicting on teens. Along with AFA’s repeated warnings, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention joined the cause by advising Netflix to remove the scene. Finally, they may be listening to common sense.
Netflix is clearly at a critical moment. It has the opportunity to distance its close association with teen suicide by completely removing the series altogether. We hope it will…before another child is lost.
TAKE ACTION
If you haven’t yet, please sign the petition to Netflix. Then,…
Help me warn as many parents as possible about 13 Reasons Why.Despite pleas from pro-family groups to cancel 13 Reasons Why, Netflix is already planning to release Season 3 soon.
Please copy and paste the information below into an email and send it to everyone in your address book, especially those who have teenagers in their home.
I wanted to let you know about a petition that I signed to Netflix CEO Reed Hastings. Through the American Family Association (AFA), I learned of a show called 13 Reasons Why that is airing on Netflix right now.
13 Reasons Why is extremely dangerous and has become a lightning rod for critics who say it glorifies suicide and may even make it an attractive option for teenagers who are enduring difficult times in their lives.
I’m warning my family and friends about 13 Reasons Why and am asking you to learn more at www.afa.net/netflix. I hope you will take time to read about 14-year-old Anna Bright, who is just one of many who committed suicide after binge-watching 13 Reasons Why.
Then, join me in signing the petition to Netflix, urging them to pull 13 Reasons Why before another teen decides to end their life through suicide.
Thank you for standing for righteousness and for fighting with us on this important issue.
Sincerely,
Tim Wildmon, President
American Family Association
From LifeNews.com: “In recent years, Georgia has become something of a second home for Hollywood as the state has opened itself up to filmmakers. But ever since the state took a stand to defend the lives of the unborn, the liberal elites on the other side of the country have demanded Georgia bend to their will or face a boycott. The CBS Evening News and NBC Nightly News not only hyped the boycott Thursday, but they also touted that their parent companies might join in.” Click to read more!
