A jailed pro-lifer who was held in prolonged solitary confinement last fall suffered a stroke while awaiting sentencing in May.

LifeSiteNews was notified today that Heather Idoni, a defendant in the Washington, D.C. FACE (Freedom to Access Clinic Entrances) Act trials, was rushed to the hospital this week after suffering a stroke while being held at Northern Neck Regional Jail in Virginia. She is reportedly stabilized and will be taken back into custody to await sentencing on May 17.

Idoni and eight other pro-lifers have been charged by the Department of Justice with violating the pro-abortion FACE Act and “conspiracy against rights” for peaceful civil disobedience in a traditional pro-life rescue at a late term-abortion facility in Washington, D.C., in October 2020.

But “they” tremble at the thought of who’s coming for them.

Now the Left is coming for the Jews. It’a only a matter of time they go to Christian churches, and take the membership rolls and start arresting them. In Canada, pastors can’t preach about certain sins or they will be arrested for hate speech. The Progressive Left is the greatest threat to American Democracy

Prayers up.

God bless and keep Heather.

And, may righteous justice rain down on those who’ve jailed her, for defending the innocent.

The left has already won the right to murder babies, not they’re going for the Jews. Damn Nazi biatches.

This elderly woman was brought to court, in an orange prison jump suit, her legs hobbled, her hands shackled to her waist.

She spent 22 days in solitary...wait for it...for sharing her food with other prisoners.

She faces, essentially, a life sentence for peacefully protesting the murder of in utero babies.

The Xiden regime has weaponized the F.A.C.E. Act to crush the ProLife community, while ignoring the destruction, vandalism and violence against ProLife pregnancy centers and ProLife advocates, which accounts for 99.9% of violations of the F.A.C.E. Act.

This pogrom against the ProLife community is being headed by Kristin Clarke, Assistant AG in the DOJ.

Past time to flip the script on them, but we just let the pot continue to reach a boil.

The American peasants do not give a crap about things like this...

Crime, looting, migrant invasion, inflation, thought control, phony elections, and DEI are things that our communist masters have stated are good for us...

Good peasants just have to:
Bow down... Obey... Snitch...

peaceful civil disobedience in a traditional pro-life rescue

Now had she been a college age rioter wearing an Arab head scarf and breaking a window to force a door open to illegally enter and occupy a locked campus building to trash the place and then chant for deaths to Jews and death to America.....she would have been fine with the authorities for a long time. Maybe having an overnight wrist slap sentencing with release in the early morning.

Prayers up for Heather’s full recovery. Prayers also for her freedom as well as for the other eight who have been charged. In Jesus’ name. 🙏

The Supreme Court has on three occasions rejected challenges to the Face Act since the law was inacted in the early 1990s. Bills in Congress to repeal the Face Act has received little support.
