A leaked Department of Veteran Affairs video showed efforts to promote abortions and more "medically accurate" terminology such as "person who is pregnant" over pregnant women.
A "Reproductive Health Training" video from April 2023 advised staffers on how to counsel veterans considering abortion.
Before discussing counseling procedures, the video began with a "note" on language that clarified, "Not all people who seek abortions identify as women." Another note read, "’Person who is pregnant’ is inclusive and preferred to ‘pregnant woman.’"
"When ‘women’ is used in this presentation series, it’s because the studies cited only included ciswomen," the video also stated.
Another slide offered a "guide" to "language and abortion" to offer to veterans potentially seeking abortions. The language included using "embryo or fetus" instead of "baby or unborn child," "embryonic or fetal cardiac activity" instead of "fetal heartbeat," "veteran or person" instead of "mother" and "pregnancy options counseling" instead of "abortion counseling."
Additional videos obtained by The Post Millennial showed what appeared to be defenses for abortion as "essential, life-saving care" and safer than pregnancy. The videos also suggested that "pregnancy can endanger mental health" while abortion patients "rarely" feel regret.
In a statement to FOX News Digital, CatholicVote President Brian Burch said, "The Biden Administration’s Department of Veterans Affairs has shamelessly weaponized the U.S. military to advance a radical pro-abortion agenda that has no place infecting our defense agencies. CatholicVote has spent the past several months demanding that the VA stop holding military appointments hostage with its illegal, unconstitutional policy to fund abortion and abortion-related expenses for service members and their families, while expressing concern over the agency’s increasingly overt political bias."

“The German Cat”
As the Nazi’s consolidated power, even something as non-political as a magazine about cats had to promote Regime messaging. So the Cat Magazine of Germany started printing articles about the genetic superiority of the German Cat.
Thus, when even the VA is pushing abortion and male pregnancy onto their aging male veteran clients - it is “The German Cat”.
We’re paying for that.
