Biden Administration To Allow Abortion Pills by Mail

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Biden administration will temporarily lift a medication abortion restriction that requires abortion pills to be dispensed in person, reversing a Trump-era policy and handing abortion-rights groups one of their first major victories of the new administration.

In a two-page letter letter to the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists, a professional medical organization, acting FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock announced Monday evening that her agency would “exercise enforcement discretion” surrounding the FDA’s requirement that abortion patients using mifepristone to terminate a pregnancy obtain the pills in-person from a medical provider. The decision will allow providers in some states to prescribe via telemedicine and send the pills in the mail. . .

Monday evening’s decision reverses a Trump administration policy supported by the Supreme Court earlier this year. Last year, ACOG, which represents about 90% of obstetricians and gynocologists in the field, requested that the FDA lift its long-standing requirement that mifepristone (also sold as Mifeprex), the first pill of two used to induce a medication abortion, be dispensed by a doctor in-person. The medical group argued that not only was the in-person requirement medically unnecessary, but in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic placed patients and medical staff at risk of exposure to the virus.

DISGUSTING: Federal Government Caught Buying ‘Fresh’ Flesh of Aborted Babies Who Could Have Survived As Preemies

/1 Comment/in , /by

Last week, legal accountability group Judicial Watch dropped a bombshell: a nearly 600-page report proving the U.S. government has been buying and trafficking “fresh” aborted baby body parts. These body parts, purchased by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to “humanize” mice and test biologic drugs in scientific experiments, came from babies up to 24-weeks-old gestation, just weeks from being born. . .

Recent emails uncovered by Judicial Watch between FDA employees and the California-based Advanced Bioscience Resources (ABR) prove the agency spent tens of thousands of dollars buying aborted babies for unethical scientific experiments between 2012 and 2018. In 2018, the Trump administration terminated the contract, halting government fetal tissue research due to concerns the contracts were unlawful. Judicial Watch’s new FOIA Request adds 575 pages of records to its existing 2019 lawsuit against the agency.

This is not the first time ABR has been in the spotlight, as the company was under congressional investigation for its long-standing involvement in fetal tissue trafficking. One of the oldest fetal tissue procurement firms, the company makes millions every year by harvesting organs like lungs, livers, eyeballs, and brains from aborted babies and re-selling them at a profit.

Emails between FDA officials and ABR employees reveal disturbing conversations as they collaborate to buy and sell aborted fetuses. Records indicate ABR was paid $12,000 upfront per baby, some survivable out of the womb, between the gestational age of 16-24 weeks. Most purchases are for intact thymuses and livers shipped “Fresh; on wet ice.”

As if these casual orders weren’t horrific enough, more emails confirm that the FDA bought organs of babies who were aborted well after 20 weeks gestation, after the time a baby usually can survive outside the womb. If nothing else, this confirms the reality of late-term abortions in the United States, which pro-abortion cheerleaders have denied for decades.

Disturbing Report Confirms Feds Were Buying Baby Body Parts

/1 Comment/in , /by

Over the last few years there’s been an uproar over the abortion industry’s profiting from the sale of the body parts of unborn babies. . .

Now government watchdog Judicial Watch has found that the government is among the purchasers of body parts.

The organization on Thursday said it obtained several hundred pages of records from the Food and Drug Administration “showing the agency spent tens of thousands of taxpayer dollars to buy human fetal tissue” from California-based Advanced Bioscience Resources, or ABR.

The company was the subject of criminal referrals from both House and Senate committees. The purchases were used in the federal government’s program to “humanize” mice for “testing” programs.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said the “fetal organ trafficking documents shock the conscience and show potentially illegal use of tax dollars to purchase organs of the unborn killed through abortion.”

The records were communications between ABR procurement manager Perrin Larton and FDA research veterinary medical official Dr. Kristina Howard between January 2011 and April 2018. (Read more from “Disturbing Report Confirms Feds Were Buying Baby Body Parts” HERE)

Abortion War Returns to Supreme Court in 2021

/0 Comments/in , /by

For the first time since President Trump’s three Supreme Court nominees were seated, giving the court what is widely regarded as a 6-3 conservative majority, the justices will hear an abortion case.

The case is a bid by the Kentucky attorney to intervene in a lawsuit against a state abortion ban, which the current Democratic governor refuses to defend.

Politico reported “the court’s new conservative supermajority” will be watched for signs of whether it wants to revisit abortion and review cases such as the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision.

The Kentucky case, Cameron v. EMW Women’s Surgical Center, is about the state’s 2018 ban on an abortion procedure in which the unborn infant is dismembered.

The law was signed by Republican Gov. Matt Bevin, but federal courts blocked its implementation and Bevin’s successor, Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear, refuses to defend it. (Read more from “Abortion War Returns to Supreme Court in 2021” HERE)

Arkansas Governor Admits: I Signed Near-Total Abortion Ban as ‘Direct Challenge’ To Roe v. Wade

/1 Comment/in , /by

Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) declared Sunday that he signed into law one of the country’s most restrictive abortion bills as a direct challenge to Roe v. Wade. . .

Signed into law earlier this month, the Arkansas Unborn Child Protection Act bans all abortions in the state with just one exception — if the controversial procedure would save the life of the mother.

That means abortions on account of rape or incest are not legally permissible under the law. Those circumstances typically account for fewer than 1.5% of all abortions.

Speaking on CNN’s “State of the Union,” the Republican governor admitted the law contradicts current Supreme Court precedent, but expressed hope it will be the impetus that forces the Supreme Court to review abortion rights.

In fact, Hutchinson said the “whole design” of the law was to challenge abortion rights. (Read more from “Arkansas Governor Admits: I Signed Near-Total Abortion Ban as ‘Direct Challenge’ To Roe v. Wade” HERE)

Top Biden Nominee Claims Taxpayer-Funded Abortion Is Necessary For ‘Racial Justice’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s nominee for deputy budget director, Shalanda Young, believes that abortion is “a matter of economic and racial justice.”

News of Young’s position on abortion was made public after her nomination was advanced out of the Senate Budget Committee and Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee down party lines last week. . .

Despite having earned general bipartisan support on Capitol Hill, 15 of the 18 Republicans who sit on both committees ultimately voted against advancing Young’s nomination.

According to the New York Post, the Republican senators who voted against Young cited her perspective toward the Hyde Amendment, the law that prohibits federal tax dollars from funding abortions except in cases of rape, incest, or to save the life of the mother.

Young told senators that eliminating the Hyde Amendment is necessary to promote “racial justice.” (Read more from “Top Biden Nominee Claims Taxpayer-Funded Abortion Is Necessary For ‘Racial Justice'” HERE)

Is Biden Going to Force Christian Doctors to Perform Abortions?

/1 Comment/in , /by

Would President Biden force doctors to perform abortions and “sex-reassignment” surgeries against their religious beliefs?

White House press secretary Jen Psaki would not say when asked by a reporter from the Catholic network EWTN on Tuesday.

The reporter noted concerns that “pregnancy discrimination” measures in the Equality Act, which has passed the House, “would force doctors to perform gender transition surgeries and sterilizations, again, even if it violates their conscience.”

“What does the president, President Biden, say about those concerns?” the reporter asked.

“The president’s been a long supporter of Roe v. Wade. It has been his consistent belief that should be law, and he will fight to continue to protect that as being law,” Psaki replied. (Read more from “Is Biden Going to Force Christian Doctors to Perform Abortions?” HERE)

New Bill Would Grant Biological Fathers Veto Power Over Abortion

/1 Comment/in , /by

Tennessee lawmakers have proposed a bill that would enable a biological father to stop a woman from getting an abortion.

Republican state Sen. Mark Pody introduced SB0494 on Feb. 8 that calls for:

As introduced, permits a person to petition a court for an injunction to prohibit a woman who is pregnant with the person’s unborn child from obtaining an abortion; requires the petitioner to execute a voluntary acknowledgement of paternity that is not subject to being rescinded or challenged.

Once the injunction is issued, the court must hold a hearing with both parties within 14 days, The Hill reported. Should the woman violate the injunction and get an abortion, “The court may hold the respondent in civil or criminal contempt and punish the respondent in accordance with the law.”

“The voluntary acknowledgement of paternity may be executed without the signature of the child’s mother,” the bill states. “The voluntary acknowledgement of paternity must be proven by filing a certified copy with the court.” (Read more from “New Bill Would Grant Biological Fathers Veto Power Over Abortion” HERE)

State Passes Bill Banning Nearly All Abortions — and Democrats Throw a Temper Tantrum (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The South Carolina state legislature passed a major piece of legislation Wednesday banning nearly all abortions in the state — and now the bill is on its way to the governor’s desk to be signed into law.

The bill, known as the “South Carolina Fetal Heartbeat and Protection from Abortion Act,” passed the state House by a vote of 79 to 35 Wednesday afternoon, according to the Associated Press. Late last month, the state Senate voted 30 to 13 in favor of the proposal.

Under the legislation, doctors are required to perform ultrasounds on pregnant mothers seeking an abortion to check if the baby has a heartbeat. Should a heartbeat be detected, the abortion is outlawed except for in rare cases where the pregnancy was caused by rape or incest or the mother’s life is in danger. . .

The State reported that nearly every Democratic member of the House walked out of the chamber as the bill was taken up for debate on Wednesday. Only a few Democrats remained in the chamber for the debate.

One lawmaker, Rep. Jonathan Hill, even stormed out of the building while tossing his amendments to the proposal up in the air. As he left, Republican House Speaker Jay Lucas reportedly said, “If you want to engage in such childish behavior the sergeants will make sure you’re not here with us.”

Lawmakers Introducing Bill Protecting Children With Down Syndrome From Extermination

/0 Comments/in , /by

Members of Congress will be reintroducing a ban on abortion based on a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome on Friday, the same day as the virtual March for Life.

The legislation being introduced by Rep. Ron Estes, R-Kan., and Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., would permit relatives of aborted children killed based on a Down syndrome diagnosis to bring civil action against the abortion performers. The bill specifies that the mother of the child cannot be prosecuted.

Children with Down syndrome are being targeted and exterminated at alarming rates. In the United States, 67 percent of babies with a Down syndrome diagnosis are aborted. In European countries, it’s worse. A disturbing 98 percent of babies with this diagnosis are aborted in Denmark and nearly 100 percent in Iceland. . .

If passed, the upcoming bill, endorsed by Susan B. Anthony List, National Right to Life, and National Pro-Life Alliance, will help curtail the genocidal annihilation of some of the least powerful people among us.
