Biden Rewards Planned Parenthood’s Baby Murder By Giving Its High Priestess A Presidential Medal Of Freedom
During the 13 years Cecile Richards led Planned Parenthood, more than 13 million babies were killed before their births in the United States.During the 13 years Cecile Richards led Planned Parenthood, more than 13 million babies were killed before their births in the United States.US government forces abortion on poor countries; ‘threatens them with extinction’
Abortion has been a major point of contention here in America, but it’s stayed under the radar as it’s slipped into poorer, non-Western countries.
Medical doctor and researcher Dr. Calum Miller calls it “abortion colonialism.”
“It’s the idea that this is a new form of ideological colonialism, the way that Western countries go to non-Western countries, and they say, ‘You have to promote abortion, you have to legalize abortion, you have to put it in your schools,’” Miller tells Allie Beth Stuckey of "Relatable."
If they refuse, they’re threatened with the withholding of something — like aid money.
“They’re basically going into these countries and saying, ‘Your culture, your values, don’t matter. We know better, and you have to change them, or we’re not going to support you,’” Miller explains.
One of the “most sinister” examples of abortion colonialism occurs in places like the Pacific Islands, where the people generally are afraid of climate change, fearing if sea levels rise that their countries will disappear.
“It’s a genuine existential threat to these countries,” Miller says. Rich countries then go to these countries and tell them they “are going to vote for these pro-environmental policies that will save your countries, but only if you support abortion.”
“So, you get these sort of green people and pro-environment people who are so cynical, that care so little about the actual environment and climate change, that they’re willing to base their support for climate change policies or not based on whether the Pacific Islands want to kill their babies,” Miller explains.
“They’re basically threatening these countries with extinction unless they support abortion,” he adds.
Stuckey notes that they’ve done the same thing with the LGBTQ agenda.
“Democratic administrations have said to countries like Uganda, if you don’t repeal your laws against homosexuality,” she says, “we’re going to withhold our aid or XYZ unless you conform to our ideological positions.”
In order to stop this, “It’s not enough to cut Planned Parenthood International’s budget from $100 million to $50 million,” Miller says.
“If we want to preserve these countries and protect their cultural values and give them the tools and resources to do that, we have to be proactive in reaching out to these countries, providing them support, sending pro-life missionaries, giving them resources, giving them political support, giving them education.”
“Because the reality is that even if the U.S. government money stopped going to all of these countries around the world, you would still have millions from the Gates Foundation, from Soros, from Packard, and a bunch of others, and it would still massively outweigh anything that pro-lifers have.”

Pro-abortion ad is SO STUPID you'd think it's a joke
California Governor Gavin Newsom has launched a new pro-abortion ad this week, and it’s so cringeworthy and full of nonsense that it's almost painful to watch.
“Alabama’s abortion ban has no exceptions for rape or incest. Now, Republicans are trying to criminalize young women’s travel to receive abortion care. We cannot let them get away with this,” Newsom wrote in a tweet on X that accompanied his ad.
The ad shows two young women attempting to cross state lines when they’re pulled over and asked to take a pregnancy test by a police officer.
“This isn’t parody, okay. This isn’t SNL. This is an actual ad released unironically from Gavin Newsom on abortion,” Sara Gonzales says, shocked.
“These people are not serious people,” she adds.
“What are you thinking, you colossal bunch of morons?” Matthew Marsden agrees, “but it’s California.”
The ad was released as Newsom is set to propose legislation to make it easier for women from Arizona to seek abortions in California and offer Arizona abortion providers an expedited way to get licensed in California.
“They’re preparing to accept an influx of patients from these women who are escaping these mean red states who are making it harder for them to kill their babies. Those mean conservatives who just want it to be like 'The Handmaid's Tale,'” Gonzales mocks.
“It’s just that, like, it’s a live human being inside of you, and we’d prefer it to be alive,” she adds.

6 pro-life activists convicted by Biden's DOJ face decade in prison for 'peaceful life-affirming gathering' at abortion clinic
Pro-life activists face more than a decade in prison after being convicted on Tuesday by the Biden administration's Department of Justice for allegedly violating a federal law. However, attorneys for the convicted activists are expected to appeal the decision, arguing that the pro-life demonstrators were participating in a "peaceful life-affirming gathering."
After a six-day federal trial, six defendants were found guilty of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act by a federal jury in Nashville, Tennessee. The defendants — Chester Gallagher, Heather Idoni, Calvin Zastrow, Coleman Boyd, Paul Vaughn, and Dennis Green — face a maximum of 10.5 years in prison and fines of up to $260,000.
The U.S. Department of Justice declared in a press release that the six defendants "engaged in a conspiracy to prevent the clinic employees from providing, and patients from receiving, reproductive health services, a civil right secured by the FACE Act."
The FACE Act was signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1994 as a "response to an increase in violence toward providers and patients of reproductive health services," according to the DOJ. The FACE Act prohibits "violent, threatening, damaging, and obstructive conduct intended to injure, intimidate, or interfere with the right to seek, obtain or provide reproductive health services."
Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division said this week, "These defendants are being held accountable for unlawfully obstructing access to reproductive health services. The Justice Department will continue to enforce the FACE Act to protect the rights of those who provide and those who seek access to such services."
U.S. Attorney Henry C. Leventis for the Middle District of Tennessee added, "These defendants knowingly chose to violate laws they disagreed with. The jury’s verdict today is a victory for the rule of law in this country and a reminder that we cannot pick and choose which laws we follow. It is also a testament to the outstanding work done in this case by the trial team and our law enforcement partners."
The FBI Memphis Field Office, Nashville Resident Agency investigated the case.
Pro-life activists staged a protest in March 2021 inside the Carafem abortion clinic in Mount Juliet, Tennessee.
As Blaze News previously reported, a 29-minute video shows the pro-life protesters lining the walls of the abortion clinic as they sang and prayed.
Officers with the Mount Juliet Police Department requested that the protesters to leave the clinic and noted that they could continue the demonstration outside the building.
After a brief negotiation with a pastor who spoke for the pro-life group, police gave the protesters five minutes to vacate the premises. Some of the protesters left, but a handful continued to stay inside the abortion clinic.
Several of the pro-life participants were arrested by local police and were later released after posting bail for misdemeanor trespassing charges.
The Thomas More Society described the incident as a "peaceful life-affirming gathering."
Steve Crampton — a lawyer with the Thomas More Society and an attorney for Paul Vaughn — said in a press release, "We are, of course, disappointed with the outcome. This was a peaceful demonstration by entirely peaceable citizens — filled with prayer, hymn-singing, and worship — oriented toward persuading expecting mothers not to abort their babies."
Crampton added, "Unfortunately, the Biden Department of Justice decided to characterize Paul Vaughn’s peaceful actions as a felony ‘conspiracy against rights,’ to intimidate and punish Paul and other pro-life people and people of faith."
The Thomas More Society said attorneys representing Vaughn are "expected to announce that they will appeal the conviction."
The convicted pro-life demonstrators are scheduled to have their sentencing hearing on July 2.

Cosmopolitan magazine promotes Satanic abortion to young women, insults dead mother of conservative Supreme Court Justice
Cosmopolitan magazine published an article promoting "Satanic abortions" to young women. In the process, the liberal magazine insulted the deceased mother of a conservative Supreme Court Justice.
Cosmopolitan – which deems itself to be the "biggest young women’s media brand in the world" – published an article on Nov. 16 titled: "The Satanic Abortion Clinic That’s Pissed Off Pretty Much Everyone...and Might Beat the Bans Anyway."
The article boosts the reputation of The Satanic Temple (TST) – which provides support to the so-called "Samuel Alito's Mom's Satanic Abortion Clinic." The abortion clinic was purposely named to stoke outrage and take a shot at Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito – who authored the opinion that ultimately overturned Roe v. Wade.
The abortion clinic attempts to mock Justice Alito by fantasizing about an alternate reality where his mother, Rose Fradusco Alito, aborted her son when he was an unborn baby.
The Cosmopolitan article conceded that Alito's mother was a schoolteacher and was "thrilled" with the birth of her son.
The article asked, "It’s unlikely that Rose ever considered abortion for herself (a few years before she passed away, she told reporters she opposed it). But what if her circumstances had been different — if her own life had been endangered by the pregnancy or if the fetus had a fatal anomaly or if Rose simply hadn’t been ready for a child? What if she’d had a choice and access to safe, legal abortion care?"
The Alito matriarch died in 2013.
The article admits that the Samuel Alito’s Mom’s Satanic Abortion Clinic does sound like "pure clickbait."
However, the article praises the clinic for providing young women with abortion pills offered at a "competitive price" and offered up until the 11th week of pregnancy.
According to Turning Point USA:
Chemical abortions are conducted using the drug Mifepristone, a synthetic steroid that blocks the naturally produced hormone progesterone, preventing the fetus from receiving any nutrition, and ultimately starves the unborn human until it passes away inside the mother’s womb. Once the unborn child is no longer viable, the second pill is taken to induce cramping, and bleeding, and ultimately expel the aborted fetus.
The clinic also offers "24/7 phone access to licensed medical personnel to anyone in need."
Cosmopolitan magazine commends The Satanic Temple for its "guerrilla street theater." The article lauds a 2016 demonstration where "temple members wearing adult diapers and baby masks disrupted a Christian-led anti-abortion protest with a BDSM stunt that involved flogging one another with whips, which one TST member said was a commentary on the Christian right’s 'fetishization of the fetal image.'" The article downplayed any outrage over the act by labeling it as "public mischief."
The author of the article applauds the clinic for going beyond "abortion activism to abortion care." The Cosmo piece confesses that the group behind the abortion clinic is a religion.
"Meaning its patients, who don’t have to be Satanists themselves, are participating in a religious ritual," the article stated. "That’s a key legal distinction TST hopes to leverage in its historic push to expand its clinic model beyond New Mexico — into states where abortion is otherwise banned."
The article describes women aborting their unborn babies with pills as a "religious ritual," adding, "That’s a key legal distinction TST hopes to leverage in its historic push to expand its clinic model beyond New Mexico — into states where abortion is otherwise banned."
The alleged "religious ritual" of chemical abortion is described as:
First, you find a quiet space. Bring a mirror if you can. Just before taking the medication, gaze at your reflection and focus on your personhood. Home in on your intent, your responsibility to you. Take a few deep, relaxing breaths. When you’re ready, read the following tenet aloud: One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone. Take the medication and immediately afterward, recite, Beliefs should conform to one’s best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one’s beliefs. Later, once your body expels the aborted tissue, return to your reflection. Focus again on your personhood, your power in making this decision. Complete the ritual by reciting a personal affirmation: By my body, my blood; by my will, it is done.
Cosmopolitan notes that 34% of its readership is between the ages of 18 and 24.

This is what a ‘biblical worldview’ gets you
The videos leaked to the press this week with testimony from several of Donald Trump’s attorneys will make for devastating Democratic ads next year if Trump is the Republican nominee for president. And it doesn’t matter one bit whether or not I think these prosecutions are legitimate. (I don’t.) I tried to tell you this a few weeks ago when too many others either ignored the truth or told you the opposite.
If you think they're handing out plea agreements to alleged co-conspirators because they gave prosecutors nothing, then you might be too dumb to vote. Or you've not watched even one episode of “CSI,” “Judge Judy,” or literally any cop or court show that's ever aired. “Night Court” was an Algonquin roundtable compared to what a lot of Americans believe. Because it was always going to turn out like this. People were never going to go to prison for Donald Trump.
Trump won't pay their legal bills, but they are supposed to do time for him? Who is taking that deal? Nobody. Meanwhile, the people you see on social media walking on rusty nails for Trump are all getting paid to do that. You’d think if the primary were truly over, as Trump Inc. repeatedly claims, that instead of spending $25 million to attack Ron DeSantis, you’d spend that money paying the legal bills for people before they turn on you.
Far be it for me, though, to tell a billionaire how to spend his money. I’m not a billionaire and will never be one. The closest I’ll ever come to such rich people problems will be nostalgically rewatching “Brewster’s Millions.” However, I do know a thing or two about a biblical worldview. That’s my show’s prime directive. That’s my life’s work and my ethical and intellectual plumb line.
Which brings me to House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who also claims a biblical worldview.
Truth is vastly worse than fiction when you’re aligned with a party that hates its own base more than its alleged competition.
Johnson is trying hard to sell out the country with this immoral budget that Democrats couldn’t wait to vote for. I never thought I’d say this, but we’d be better off at this point with soulless technocrat Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) than Johnson’s upside-down version of a biblical worldview. Because now we get all the same failures plus the blowback that comes with being too Jesus-y. Awesome!
So, in effect, McCarthy was the late-term abortion “ban” from the George W. Bush years that didn’t actually ban any abortions, and Johnson is your #ProLife license plate. Come get your slogan; wear it proud, as meaningless as it is. Absolutely nothing has changed in our political landscape since Trump won in 2016, despite all the time we’ve wasted claiming otherwise. The cake is still baked the same. The Trump-era GOP’s frosting is just zanier.
The Trump-era GOP still negotiates against itself, just as it did in the pre-Trump years. Johnson may know more Bible verses than the chain-smoking John Boehner and CrossFitting Paul Ryan, but when you open up the Republican Party hymnal, the song remains the same.
But hey, Johnson endorsed Trump for president and declared Trump had “the best economy in the history of the world” on TV this week, so the speaker has his fire insurance. He’s painted Trump’s logo over his door; thus the angel of accountability will now pass over his cushy corner office in the Rayburn Building. For Speaker Mike spoke Trump’s name, and it has been credited to him as righteousness.
Never mind that Johnson is enforcing a budget endorsed by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and will fund every demonic doctrine the Democrats genuflect to. As it says in 2 Self-Righteous 6:666: “You do you, bruh.”
In all seriousness, this is the most GOP thing ever. Take on all the backlash of having its national face declare his allegiance to a biblical worldview to a Romans 1 culture, but then get none of the actual blessings of applying that same biblical worldview. It’s just like when Republicans voted more than 50 times to repeal Obamacare in the minority, then refused to repeal the failed legislation when voters gave them the power to do so, only to get annihilated by those same voters in the next election when health care was the top issue.
You can’t make this stuff up, and you don’t have to.
Truth is vastly worse than fiction when you’re aligned with a party that hates its own base more than its alleged competition. And since this loveless marriage has permitted our enemies to desecrate every institution that made and sustained this once-exceptional country, we might as well go ahead and add “biblical worldview” to that long train of abuses while we’re at it.
Trump vows to work with Democrats on abortion to make sure 'both sides will be happy,' declares heartbeat bills a 'terrible thing,' says Biden isn't too old during 'Meet the Press' interview
Former President Donald Trump gave a wide-ranging interview to new "Meet the Press" host Kristen Welker. The interview hit on several topics, including the 2020 election, the possibility of Trump going to prison, President Joe Biden's age, and abortion.
Trump vows to work with Democrats on abortion
Trump criticized Republicans for speaking "very inarticulately" about abortion. He also vowed to work with Democrats to make sure "both sides will be happy."
Trump said pro-lifers "have the right to negotiate for the first time" because the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. WadeRoe v. Wade in June 2022.
The former president said the Democrats are the "radical people" on the abortion issue. He said Democrats are in favor of abortion "after five months, six months, seven months, eight months, nine months, and even after birth you’re allowed to terminate the baby."
Welker questioned Trump's assertion, and he pointed to controversial comments about third-semester abortions made in 2019 by then-Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam – a Democrat.
Trump stated that abortion is a "50/50 issue" with Americans.
Trump promised an abortion policy "where everybody comes together."
Trump then contradicted his previous remarks by saying, "Democrats don’t want to see abortion in the seventh month, okay. I speak to a lot of Democrats. They want a number. There is a number, and there’s a number that’s going to be agreed to."
He added, "Because Democrats don’t want to be radical on the issue, most of them, some do. They don’t want to be radical on the issue. They don’t want to kill a baby in the seventh month or the ninth month or after birth."
"I think the Republicans speak very inarticulately about this subject," Trump said of his own party. "I watch some of them without the exceptions, et cetera, et cetera."
When Welker asked Trump if he would sign a 15-week ban on abortion, he replied, "I would sit down with both sides and I’d negotiate something, and we’ll end up with peace on that issue for the first time in 52 years. I’m not going to say I would or I wouldn’t."
Trump then attacked Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for signing the Heartbeat Protection Act, which prohibits abortions once the unborn child has a detectible heartbeat or as early as six weeks of pregnancy.
When asked if he would support similar heartbeat bills, Trump proclaimed, "I think what he did is a terrible thing and a terrible mistake."
Trump told the "Meet the Press" host, "I have exceptions, by the way. I think people should have exceptions. I think if it’s rape or incest or the life of the mother, I think you have to have exceptions. It’s very important."
Trump avoided Welker's question of when he believes abortion should be illegal.
"It could be state or it could be federal," Trump said. "I don’t, frankly, care."
On the issue of abortion with Democrats, Trump told Welker, "I think they’ll — I think they’re all going to like me. I think both sides are going to like me."
He said of Republicans and Democrats, "We’re going to agree — no — we’re going to agree to a number of weeks or months or however you want to define it. And both sides are going to come together and both sides — both sides, and this is a big statement, both sides will come together."
Trump doesn't think Biden is too old to be president
Welker asked about calls for a "new generation of leaders in this country."
"Well, it’s always time for a new generation," Trump answered. "But, you know, some of the greatest world leaders have been in their 80s."
"I’m not anywhere very near 80, by the way," he continued. "And Biden’s not too old. I don’t think Biden’s too old. But I think he’s incompetent, and that’s a bigger problem. I don’t think 80 is old."
If elected president, Trump would be 78 on Inauguration Day – the same age that Biden was when he began his first term in 2021.
Trump claimed that he has genetics on his side because his father lived to 93 and his mother lived to 88.
Trump says he didn't listen to advice from his lawyers to not challenge the 2020 election results
Trump said he didn't listen to his lawyers about challenging the results of the 2020 election because he "didn't respect them."
Welker pointed out that Trump hired the lawyers, and he responded, "Sure. But that doesn’t mean – you hire them, you never met these people. You get a recommendation. They turn out to be RINOs, or they turn out to be not so good. In many cases, I didn’t respect them. But I did respect others. I respected many others that said the election was rigged."
"You know who I listen to? Myself. I saw what happened," he asserted. "I watched that election, and I thought the election was over at 10 o’clock in the evening."
Trump says he's not afraid of going to prison
When asked if he is worried about possibly going to jail, Trump said, "No, I don’t really. I don’t even think about it. I’m built a little differently I guess."
"I don’t even think about it. These are corrupt people that I’m dealing with," he stressed. "They’re destroying our country. I don’t even think about it. All I think about is making the country great, making America great. Look, these are political, these are banana republic indictments. These are third-world indictments."
