Abortions are going up thanks to THIS leftist loophole



In the background of the Supreme Court ruling that has given states the power to block Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood clinics is President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” which could hit the clinics even harder.

The bill includes language that would ban insurance plans offered under the Affordable Care Act from covering abortion care in certain states.

“I’m still optimistic that this will remain in the bill. There’s too much political support behind it, primarily from the American people, by the way,” Terry Schilling, president of the American Principles Project, tells BlazeTV host Jill Savage and Blaze media senior politics editor Christopher Bedford on “Blaze News: The Mandate.”

“Over 60% of Americans do not want tax dollars going towards funding abortion procedures,” he explains, adding, “I think Donald Trump has shown Republicans how to fight back in the culture war and how to win.”


“There’s been some good progress. We are cutting back taxpayer funding in the red states for abortions, we are restricting it, we are passing common-sense laws like in Texas and in Florida. Texas has a great law; it’s a heartbeat law, and they’ve essentially eliminated all of abortions,” he continues.

However, after the overturn of Roe v. Wade three years ago, abortions have gone up by 10% across America.

“What’s causing that is the blue states have passed what’s known as shield laws that allow them to recruit and advertise for abortion services in the red states and the border states,” Schilling explains. “It also allows their pharmaceutical companies and their doctors to mail out abortion drugs to the red states.”

“I do hope that in the future, we will bring more attention to the fact that these blue states have weaponized their laws to make sure that we’re aborting more babies,” he adds.

'Disgusting': Did DC outlet take BRIBES for positive coverage?



An alarming development from the depths of the media swamp has been brought to light by UnHerd’s Emily Jashinsky, who dropped a bombshell this week: Leaked documents expose Punchbowl News for offering corporations “editorial influence” — for the right price.

Jashinsky posted a brief overview of the expose on X, writing: “Breaking Points got ahold of a leaked pitch deck from Punchbowl News. The document reveals how they allow corporations to buy influence over editorial decisions.”

“WH told us several subscriptions were canceled by the Trump admin as well. We also have their numbers: They’ve charged corporate sponsors $210,000 for a week of email ads. You can see the pricing sheet, with subscriber numbers and open rates below,” Jashinsky continued.


Christopher Bedford, Blaze Media’s D.C. correspondent and senior editor for politics, isn’t surprised in the slightest.

“It’s the new journalism, same as the old journalism,” Bedford tells Matthew Peterson and Jill Savage on “Blaze News Tonight.”

“Punchbowl are essentially unregistered lobbyists,” he continues. “If Punchbowl was good at its job, then corporations wouldn’t actually need to hire lobbyists, they would be able to read that newsletter, maybe pay a premium.”

“What they often do, they push these different issues, advocacy things, they push their agenda, they spread Capitol Hill gossip, which is, you know, fun, but not necessarily that helpful, and they create all these false cliffs and these false deadlines,” he adds.

But that’s not all.

“Their reporting has been suffering,” Bedford explains. “Pedaling influence, selling influence, it’s kind of the game. And for so much of Washington, it’s really disgusting.”

No peace for Republicans? Democrat fans flames for Summer of Love 2.0



Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, who is unsurprisingly a Democrat, called for mass protests against President Donald Trump during a speech in New Hampshire this week.

Pritzker complained in his speech that the president and the individuals "he has elevated" are "an affront to every value this country was founded upon."

"Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for mobilization, for disruption — but I am now," he said, adding, "These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace. They have to understand that we will fight their cruelty with every megaphone and microphone that we have. We must castigate them on the soapbox and then punish them at the ballot box. They must feel in their bones … that we will relegate their portraits to the museum halls reserved for tyrants and traitors."


Blaze Media D.C. correspondent Christopher Bedford isn’t shocked, but he is more than a little disturbed.

“You have folks like Governor Pritzker over in Illinois, who’s just a wild man. I mean, it’s kind of insane to see somebody that wealthy attacking Trump for being wealthy, when he’s a governor himself,” Bedford tells Jill Savage on “Blaze News Tonight.”

“But that’s the way he operates. And he’s out there now saying, ‘We need to have resistance 2.0. There can be no peace for Republicans. They must be investigated. They must be harassed in the streets. They must be impeached,’” he continues.

“I think what we’re starting to see is Democrat frustrations bubbling over, but I don’t see any appetite for it in the streets. I just don’t. It doesn’t seem like the summer of riots that they’ve had in the past,” he adds.

However, that could change.

“As one reporter I was talking to earlier today said, ‘Seems like the United States is always one particularly grizzly police shooting away from that sort of thing changing,’” Bedford says, adding, “but right now those Democrats who are trying to just relive and run a sequel, it’s going straight to home video. It’s not even coming to theaters.”

Maryland Democrat proves loyalty to Kilmar Garcia; shirks constituents to visit him



Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) has been promoting his trip to El Salvador last week to meet Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the illegal immigrant who is currently sitting in an El Salvador prison.

President Donald Trump is not amused by Van Hollen’s leftist antics, and he made that clear in a Truth Social post, writing, “Senator Chris Van Hollen of Maryland looked like a fool yesterday standing in El Salvador begging for attention from the Fake News Media, or anyone. GRANDSTANDER!!!”

“I probably haven’t seen a public stunt face-plant as hard since my pal and friend Eric Bolling put ketchup on his hands to talk about how Obama had blood on his, and nobody got it,” Christopher Bedford, Blaze News senior editor for politics, tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight.”


“That he would go and leave his constituents,” he continues, “leave Maryland behind, go to a foreign country, post TikTok videos about it, post on Twitter about it, post on Instagram about it, go to a prison to demand the release of someone who’s not one of his citizens, someone who’s been affiliated with a gang, someone who an immigration judge and an immigration appeals court has found is affiliated with a gang.”

Meanwhile, Bedford notes that a Maryland mother of five was beaten to death by an illegal immigrant and only got a minor press release in response. Rachel Morin was only 37 years old when she was found dead near the Ma & Pa Trail in Harford County on August 6, 2023, a day after she left for a jog.

“Just to show you where his priorities are,” Bedford says, mocking Van Hollen, “‘I’m gonna fly all the way down to El Salvador, and you’re going to pay for it. And these are my constituents, the foreigners of the world.’”

“I’ve long written that Democrats care more about foreigners than Americans. Not all Democrats, but a lot of their politicians care more about foreigners than they do about their actual Americans,” he adds.

(RFK Jr.'s new autism investigation causes a media meltdown



RFK Jr. has announced his desire to get to the root cause of the autism epidemic — and strangely enough, Americans left of center are up in arms, as they appear not to want the truth.

The health and human services secretary created a firestorm when he claimed that people with autism won’t be able to pay taxes or hold down a job, as well as calling it a “preventable disease” caused by a mysterious environmental toxin.

Of course, while there are many children with autism who grow up to be productive members of society, RFK Jr. was speaking about those whose lives are completely upended by their diagnosis.


“I think half of everyone I know is on the spectrum,” Blaze Media senior politics editor Christopher Bedford tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson on “Blaze News Tonight.” “They’re intelligent and interesting and bring a lot of different skills to this, but that’s not the only kind of autism.”

“There are other people who I know who have to take their kids out of different schools they are in to try and find them the resources they need. Levels of autism so bad that children are non-verbal, that they don’t walk correctly, that they will never communicate correctly, that they will have extreme difficulty ever holding down any kind of a job,” he continues.

Meanwhile, the mainstream media are blaming RFK for trying to cure autism, as they believe it’s just something that makes those afflicted unique.

“That’s insane,” Bedford says. “Our environment over the last 50 years and 20 years in particular have made the rates of autism absolutely skyrocket in this country.”

“If you care about this, and you care about your kids, you’d want to investigate,” he adds.

Grieving mom obliterates MS-13-supporting Democrats at White House press briefing



Rachel Morin was a mother of five, but left behind her children when she was raped and killed by an undocumented migrant from El Salvador.

She was found near the MA & PA Trail in Harford County on August 6, 2023. Victor Martinez-Hernandez was found guilty of her murder on April 14 and had fled to the United States illegally after an arrest warrant was issued in El Salvador.

Patty Morin, the victim’s mother, took the stage as a special guest at a White House press briefing where Karoline Leavitt began by highlighting crimes committed by another illegal immigrant, Kilmar Garcia.


Not just an illegal immigrant but an MS-13 gang associate accused of violent crimes against his own wife, Garcia was deported by the Trump administration — while the Democrats have been fighting for his return.

But Morin is well aware of the danger these illegal immigrants pose to American citizens, and she bravely recounted the story of her own daughter's death to drive her point home.

“He attacked her. He dragged her 150 feet, blood gushing from her head. It left a 150-foot trail of her blood,” Morin said at the press conference. “He picked her up, he threw her against the wall of the tunnel, and he raped her. But before he did that, he stopped on that trail, and rocks still stained with her blood, he used them to hammer her head against those rocks.”

“She was so stoic,” Blaze Media senior politics editor Christopher Bedford tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight.” “It was incredibly brave, and she answered on the way out the door the question that I was intending to ask.”

“She felt betrayed by those people, those politicians, who just don’t seem to give a damn in Maryland and in Washington and all around the country,” Bedford says. “When she left, the press room was silent. There wasn’t the usual hubbub, there wasn’t the yelling of questions.”

“There was just silence, and that alone was witness to the testimony that she gave,” he adds.

The deep state cabal that LIED about Hunter Biden's laptop



House Republicans have uncovered documents revealing that the FBI knew the Hunter Biden laptop story wasn’t “disinformation” but rather used Big Tech to snuff out the story.

“The FBI wasn’t just quiet about the Hunter Biden laptop story before the 2020 election, they actually told their own people not to talk about it,” Jill Savage of “Blaze News Tonight” reports, noting that a top FBI lawyer even issued a gag order on an agent who accidentally confirmed the story’s validity.

Blaze Media D.C. correspondent Christopher Bedford isn’t surprised in the slightest.


“We always knew this is what was going on,” Bedford says. “We knew that this was crooked, we knew it was corrupt, we knew that top levels of the U.S. government and alumni of the intelligence community were involved.”

“So what we’re seeing now is actually unbelievably refreshing, because I covered this the whole time, and now we have the receipts,” he continues. “We’ll be able to look back in 50 years and say the entire thing was bogus, the corruption of the Biden family can begin to be exposed. How high the protection for them went can begin to be really exposed.”

Bedford believes that the Hunter Biden laptop story has always been “way bigger than Hunter Biden” and the “presidential family corruption” itself.

“Not only were they willing to suppress this in time for an election, but then in the months afterwards, Amazon web services was willing to rip out the actual internet servers beneath American companies that had done nothing wrong, because they were going along with this disinformation,” Bedford explains.

“This whole thing exposed just how corrupt the federal government was, the intelligence services were, the people who protect them were,” he continues, adding, “Never forget what they did.”

Trump SLASHES Education Department amid poor scores and LGBTQ+ agenda



Conservatives have been toying with the idea of abolishing the Department of Education for decades, but President Donald Trump is the one finally taking action.

“In a few moments, I will sign an executive order to begin eliminating the Federal Department of Education once and for all,” President Trump said in an address to the American people.

Terry Schilling, president of the American Principles Project, couldn’t be more thrilled with the president’s action.

“We’ve seen educational progress not just stall, it’s going backwards. Fifty percent of every dollar goes to administration costs. The Department of Education hasn’t helped us educate our children or, you know, get more people to the moon or expand America’s abilities,” Schilling tells Christopher Bedford on “Blaze News Tonight.”


“And only, by the way, a third of our kids can read at grade level, do math at grade level. It’s absolutely appalling,” he adds, noting that regardless of the facts, many Americans are unhappy with the president’s move.

“What a lot of Americans don’t understand is that when the Department of Education gives out money, every dollar has a string attached to it. You accept this dollar here, well, you have to start a new counseling program or an anti-bullying program or some type of after-school Satan club,” Schilling explains.

“The biggest losers in this executive order are the administrators, the superintendents, the school boards,” he continues, including those who have been instituting “new LGBTQ+ reading book programs.”

Not only that, but the Biden administration weaponized school boards against parents.

“If you’re a parent that shows up at a school board meeting under the Biden administration, you get investigated as a domestic terrorist for voicing your First Amendment rights about your own children, about your own children getting sexually assaulted in the bathroom where the school covers it up,” Schilling says.

“That is how bad the Department of Education got,” he continues, “to where the school boards were actually protecting the corrupt, protecting the abusers, and that’s one of the reasons why it’s so important to get rid of this thing and return power back to the parents and back to the states.”

CRINGE: Democrats' censure song and TikTok flops show messaging is DOA



After Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) was booted from President Trump’s congressional address last week, the Democrats thought it was a great idea to sing “We Shall Overcome” during Green’s censure vote.

Spoiler alert: It wasn’t a great idea.

“Didn’t seem like they knew the words,” Blaze Media D.C. correspondent Christopher Bedford tells Jill Savage on “Blaze News Tonight.” “They’re cosplaying. I mean, this is not a civil rights moment. You’re a member of Congress. This is Al Green getting in trouble for being a bad guy.”


That hasn’t been the only Democrat messaging fail this week, after the Democrats also posted a video to TikTok accompanied by the direction to “Choose your fighter.” The video shows several congresswomen, including Jasmine Crockett and AOC, bouncing up and down like a character in a video game waiting to be chosen.

“It’s just a funny look. Poor manners,” Bedford comments. “It didn’t work for the last White House. The last White House, basically their strategy was, ‘I know that the grocery bills are rising, but we just put out a super gay TikTok video and it didn’t actually seem to move the vote.’”

“I just don’t think when you’re a working-class party initially that is struggling with working-class voters and connecting with normalcy, well, this is not quite the path home,” he continues. “They’ve been downgraded to TikTok.”
