Maybe the DNC can get Charlie Christ to run as a Republican again.

Trump did try to help Crist just before the election by attacking DeSantis. Maybe he can endorse Crist like he endorses so many RINOs.

This story is an outright lie. If the circumstances they assert were true, she would be able to have an abortion.

I actually watched the video. This family knows they can legally leave Florida and get an abortion elsewhere. BUT they won’t because they are afraid of getting arrested. Lol...... You go figure out their logic.

So at least in this video, this couple claims she will carry the baby to birth.

Despite the placenta, the baby still needs its own functioning kidneys by late stages. I’m thinking they should check again as sometimes the early imaging doesn’t always pick up things that are still developing but do show up later.

I say this to people all the time. If you have a “crisis” pregnancy, and a fetus without kidneys would obviously be non-viable, YOUR DOCTOR DOESN’T SEND YOU TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD FOR TERMINATION. Situations like that will be handled by doctors, who diagnose a non-viable pregnancy, in an appropriate setting, not some abortion mill.

From the Cleveland Clinic:

https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/24161-renal-agenesis

What are the complications of bilateral renal agenesis? About 4 in 10 fetuses with bilateral renal agenesis die in the uterus before childbirth (a stillbirth). Or they arrive early (a premature birth) before the 37th week of pregnancy. Without kidneys to make urine and amniotic fluid, a fetus's lungs don’t develop properly. Most newborns die from respiratory failure a few hours after childbirth.

How is bilateral renal agenesis treated? Until recently, a newborn with no kidneys and underdeveloped lungs had little hope of surviving outside of the uterus for more than a few hours. But new experimental treatments offer a reason to have hope. The treatment involves injecting saline (saltwater) solution into the uterus during pregnancy to restore amniotic fluid levels. The fluid allows the fetus’s lungs to develop. After birth, the baby receives dialysis until a kidney transplant procedure can take place. This treatment is still experimental and not widely available.

“Whose to say that the love this baby has in the womb and the time on earth is not worth it. Love the child enough to give it life for as little or long as God plans”

AMEN!

So “abortion” is their answer? Will an abortion give the baby kidneys?

What is solved here with an abortion? The baby is not suffering NOW. Maybe a solution can be found. Dialysis until a transplant can be done? Possibility?

Yep, it is a lie.
An abortion isn’t merely a termination of pregnancy. An abortion is when you kill the baby, or attèmpt to kill the baby.

Indùcing a delivery allows the baby to be born, anď it may or may not survive. In an abortion, the main focus and central goal is to KILL THE BABY.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/02/health/florida-abortion-term-pregnancy/index.html

"...Her doctors told her it was too late to terminate the pregnancy in Florida, which bans nearly all abortions after 15 weeks. The only options were to go out of state to get an abortion or to carry the baby to full term, and Dorbert and her husband didn’t have the money to travel...."

I don't buy it.

Abortion IS the answer.
Now, what was the question?
