Planned Parenthood’s latest annual report covering its “services” for the 2022–2023 fiscal year should be eye-opening for many.The largest abortion chain in the U.S. received nearly 700 million of our tax dollars.It committed 392,715 abortions.And it claimed that “863,000 users accessed abortionfinder.org — an authoritative source for abortion information from Planned Parenthood
and independent clinics — from Planned Parenthood’s websites between July 2022–June 2023.” This means that Planned Parenthood helped nearly one million women find abortion services when it could not provide them.Seventy percent of the report is focused on abortion: killing a preborn baby as “healthcare” or a “right,”...

UK actress and disability advocate Liz Carr is making headlines this week for her new documentary “Better Off Dead,” which reveals some of the dangers of assisted suicide and euthanasia (often referred to as ‘MAiD’, or medical assistance in dying). A
clip from the film shows Carr’s highly unsettling interaction with Dr. Ellen Wiebe, an abortionist and euthanasia doctor in Canada. Wiebe, who has previously said that euthanasia is her “most rewarding work,” doubles down on that statement as she appears gleeful in discussing her role in killing human beings. “I love my job,” she says of helping people to...

WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) — Below is the full statement of pro-life advocate John Hinshaw before being sentenced to 21 months in prison on Tuesday for blocking access to late-term abortionist Cesare Santangelo’s Washington Surgi-Clinic facility in the nation’s capital. It

to Joe Biden’s politicized Justice Department, pro-life advocate Herb Geraghty has been sentenced to 34 months in prison under the FACE Act just for engaging in a peaceful protest inside an abortion center. Like fellow pro-life advocate Lauren Handy, Darnel was found guilty on all counts the Biden administration brought against them for allegedly violating the FACE law. In a previous interview, Darnel called it an “honor” to be arrested for saving babies from abortions. “FACE is a crime, but it shouldn’t be a crime...

Some voters in battleground states are confused about the origins of the current abortion landscape in the United States, despite President Joe Biden making abortion the centerpiece of his reelection campaign. A
New York Times/Philadelphia Inquirer/Siena College poll of voters in battleground states — including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Wisconsin — found that nearly one in five registered voters (17 percent) think Biden is responsible for the end of the constitutional “right” to abortion. Fifty-six percent credit former President Donald Trump, and 13 percent say they do not know or refused to answer. Notably, Trump nominated three Supreme Court...

Biden's DOJ then raided Lauren's home, where they found something shocking: the bodies of 5 nearly full-term infants that had been thrown in the trash at Washington Surgi-Clinic. All 5 bodies showed clear evidence of partial-birth abortion and even post-birth infanticide. The
abortionist in charge of the facility, Cesare Santangelo, had previously admitted in a hidden camera investigation to leaving living babies to die.

Harrison Butker, placekicker for the Kansas City Chiefs and three-time Super Bowl Champion, delivered a powerful commencement speech at Benedictine College on Saturday.

address was a fervent call to action for the graduates. He reflected on the challenges posed by COVID-19 but quickly pivoted to broader societal issues influenced by bad policies and poor leadership under the Biden regime. He took aim at Joe Biden, denouncing his public display of Catholic...

How Pro-Abortion States Are Blocking Other States From Protecting The Unborn

The Federalist ^
| 05/13/2024 | Guzi He
So-called ‘abortion shield laws’ will prevent pro-life states and their citizens from holding abortionists accountable.Since the fall of Roe v. Wade
in 2022, pro-abortion states have begun devising measures to shelter abortionists whose operations were hampered by states that chose to protect unborn life. These so-called “abortion shield laws” — many of which are likely unconstitutional — will defeat any ability for pro-life states and their citizens to hold abortionists accountable for violating their health and safety standards. Diligently enforced, shield laws invite a new war between the states over not just the lives of unborn children, but also our...

In a bid to outflank Biden for the women's vote, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. came out in favor of abortion at any time and for any reason up until birth, saying "every baby's death is a tragedy. Many
of them leave permanent trauma on a woman. But I think, ultimately, I don't trust government to have jurisdiction over people's bodies." This announcement stunned RFK's running mate Nicole Shanahan who insisted "that is not Bobby's position, at least as far as I understand it. My understanding is that he absolutely believes in limits on abortion, and we've talked...

A staunch bishop criticized President Joe Biden for calling himself a “devout” Catholic while at the same time spreading his pro-abortion message. Bishop
Thomas Paprocki of the Diocese of Springfield, Illinois accused Biden of “making a mockery of our Catholic faith” after he made the Sign of the Cross while promoting abortion. In a video titled “Biden Mocks Our Catholic Faith,” the bishop noted several times when the president has acted against his faith in a sacrilegious manner to promote something evil. Biden made the Sign of the Cross at an abortion rally in Florida while lambasting fellow Catholic Gov....

Independent presidential candidate and former Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr. admitted this week that he supports “full-term” abortions. In
a sit-down interview with former ESPN reporter Sage Steele, RFK said that while he doesn’t think women should abort their children in the eighth month of pregnancy or beyond, he wouldn’t prohibit them from doing so. “Even if it’s full-term,” he said, later adding, “I think we have to leave it to the women rather than the state.” RFK’s position is extreme, no matter how you slice it. The majority of Americans believe there should be some restrictions on abortions; only...

Liberals are Getting Themselves Sterilized to Protest Abortion Bans

Abortion advocates are not content to just scream and shout about pro-life laws protecting babies from abortion. They
are taking their protests even further by sterilizing themselves. Last month, medical researchers published a paper analyzing data on “permanent contraceptive procedures” among 18- to 30-year-olds. As LifeNews has previously reported, liberal men are getting vasectomies in record numbers to protest abortion bans across the country in the wake of the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade. Liberal women are getting tubals as well to avoid having to deal with aboriton bans they oppose. And that likely means fewer abortions. Reports of...

the results are within the survey’s ±4 percent margin of error. The poll found that 29 percent of respondents oppose the amendment, and 10 percent are undecided.

CV NEWS FEED // Florida legislators are working to expand current Safe Haven policy in hopes of lowering the number of abortions in the state. All
states have a Safe Haven policy that allows for a mother to anonymously surrender her newborn up for adoption at participating hospitals and EMS and fire stations. Barring any signs of abuse or neglect, there will be no questions asked and no criminal charges. The specifics of the policies vary by state. In Florida, the newborn can be surrendered up to seven days after birth. The new legislation would expand the current Safe Haven...
