Planned Parenthood claims 'any reason is the right reason' for abortion, features transgender person who says abortion was 'one of the best decisions' of her life



Planned Parenthood proclaimed in a tweet that "any reason is the right reason" for an abortion. The tweet linked to a brief video in which a self-described transgender person said that having an abortion was "one of the best decisions" she had made.

The organization contended in its tweet that people sharing their abortion stories helps to normalize abortions.

"When it comes to your abortion, any reason is the right reason. Telling your abortion story is important, and the more we talk about this essential form of health care, the more normalized it becomes," Planned Parenthood tweeted.

The tweet links to a video in which a woman who identifies as transgender says that she has had an abortion and that she receives "gender-affirming care from" the organization.

Lucky explains that she got into a "very, very difficult relationship" and learned that she was pregnant. She claimed that the "abortion was one of the greatest acts of compassion" that she "ever committed." She described it as an "easy decision" and "one of the best decisions" she had made in her life.

In addition to promoting abortion, Planned Parenthood is also pushing radical leftist gender ideology. In a tweet last week, the organization sought to promote and normalize the idea of "multigender" identity.

The tweet declares that "you and only you know how you feel about your gender identity, and you get to decide what identity fits you best. It's perfectly normal if that feeling and identity changes day-to-day or over time, so don't limit yourself to one gender if it doesn't feel right."

A slide posted with the tweet claimed that "feeling like you're multiple genders is totally normal and OK."

\u201cBottom line: you and only you know how you feel about your gender identity, and you get to decide what identity fits you best. It\u2019s perfectly normal if that feeling and identity changes day-to-day or over time, so don\u2019t limit yourself to one gender if it doesn\u2019t feel right. \ud83d\udc99\u201d

Oklahoma will now prosecute abortionists performing non-medically necessary abortions



On Tuesday, Oklahoma’s Republican Governor Kevin Stitt signed a bill into law that bans abortion in nearly all cases.

The legislation, SB612, which passed the Oklahoma House of Representatives last week and the Oklahoma Senate last year, makes performing an abortion a felony.

NBC News reported Stitt signing the bill into law as “part of an aggressive push in Republican-led states across the country to scale back abortion rights.”

The Oklahoma House voted to pass the bill 70-14, and it passed in the Senate 38-9.

Any individual convicted for carrying out or attempting to carry out an abortion would face up to 10 years in prison and up to a $100,000 fine.

At the time, Republican State Rep. Jim Olsen noted that the legislation is focused on punishing medical professionals who perform abortions and not the women who receive them.

He said, “The penalties are for the doctor, not for the woman.”

The bill specifically states that it does not “authorize the charging or conviction of a woman with any criminal offense in the death of her own unborn child.”

However, Olsen noted that the legislation would allow doctors to perform abortive procedures should it be necessary to save the life of an expectant mother.

“Obviously, I’m thrilled because we have the potential of seeing many lives of babies saved — part of that depends on future court rulings.”

Gov. Stitt announced via Twitter that he would sign SB612 into law.

He said, “I intend to make Oklahoma the most-pro life state in the country.”

I intend to make Oklahoma the most-pro life state in the country.\n\nThis morning I will sign SB612 into law. \n\nTune in live at 9:00am CT here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0gVm9l2Z-M\u00a0\u2026

Stitt said, “As Governor, I promised to sign every piece of pro-life legislation that hit my desk. Today I kept that promise by signing SB612 into law, once again showing the world that Oklahoma is the most pro-life state in the country.”

Pro-abortion political figures were quick to reprimand Oklahoma for the steps it took to protect life.

California’s Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom criticized Oklahoma for protecting the life of an unborn child who was conceived in rape and inaccurately said that the law makes it so that “doctors performing reproductive care should be bounty-hunted.”

Now law in Oklahoma:\n\n- A woman who is a victim of rape or incest must give birth to a child.\n\n- Doctors performing reproductive care should be bounty-hunted.\n\nShameful.https://apnews.com/article/abortion-oklahoma-law-87880e9f3c7bde2ae634cb2f02839e6e\u00a0\u2026

Molly Jong-Fast, a leftist author at the Atlantic, lamented that SB612 marks an end to easy abortion access. She said, “This is not a drill. This is the end of Roe [v. Wade].”

Planned Parenthood Action — a political advocacy group affiliated with the country’s largest abortion provider — referred to pro-life members of the Oklahoma legislature as “extremist politicians” who are “willing to turn their own constituents into medical refugees.”

JUST NOW: Oklahoma lawmakers passed a total abortion ban, pending the Governor\u2019s signature.\n\nThese extremist politicians are willing to turn their own constituents into medical refugees. \n\nAbortion is health care. And we'll keep fighting for your care, no matter what.pic.twitter.com/tRNgH9O89z
