In the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade on Friday, the ugly mask worn by the liberals of CNN slipped to show the ugliness underneath as CNN Newsroom host Alisyn Camerota and faux “Republican” commentator and co-host of The View, Ana Navarro made the ghoulish argument that kids in foster care and relatives with cognitive disabilities should show the obvious need for abortion. These disgusting arguments came as the two tag-teamed against Republican strategist Alice Stewart who was defending the pro-life movement. “I can tell you, having worked and advocated in the pro-life community for many...

LifeSiteNews) — Thousands of foster children (most of them Black and Hispanic and poor) were force-fed HIV drugs known to be toxic to adults i to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s scathing new book about America’s beleaguered COVID czar. As many as 14,000 babies and children in at least seven U.S. states were conscripted by Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, Genentech and other companies, and forced to take deadly antiretroviral drugs during an AIDS research spending frenzy overseen by Fauci as director of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). Many of them died. Pfizer HIV experiments Kennedy dredges up this dark,...

Adoption agencies that fail to prioritize mothers and fathers in child placements are bowing to social pressure, not the best interests of children.Adoption agencies that fail to prioritize mothers and fathers in child placements are bowing to social pressure, not the best interests of children. Bethany Christian Services, the nation’s largest Protestant adoption agency, made headlines this week when they began serving LGBTQ adults after years of rebuffing government pressure to place children with same-sex couples. To see which way the evangelical winds were blowing, Bethany commissioned the Barna Group to survey Christians on the question of LGBTQ adoptions. The...

Forget what’s best for foster kids. According to the ACLU, all that matters is diversity. On any given day, an estimated 438,000 kids are in foster care. In 2016, nearly 700,000 American kids spent some time in foster care. That same year about 23,000 kids aged out of the system—they turned eighteen and were released from the custody of the state. Twenty percent of them instantly became homeless. Only half will be gainfully employed by age 24. Less than three percent will ever graduate college, and 25 percent will still exhibit symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. In other words, our...

The 70 foster kids spent five days bracing the impact of Hurricane Irma in emergency shelters. But after the storm was over, their foster care community had lost power and they had nowhere to go. "At noon yesterday, we got a phone call from the SOS Children's Village Florida saying we need help," millionaire Marc Bell told CBS 12. “‘We've been evicted from our shelters and we don't know where to bring the kids, and we're not getting any help from the county, what do I do?’ And I said ‘bring them here.’” Bell, a former executive of adult magazine...

Hodgkinson had a history of violence that did not rise to the level to prohibit him from legally owning a firearm. He was the foster father of at least two girls. The first, Wanda Ashley Stock, 17, committed suicide in 1996 by pouring gasoline on herself and setting herself on fire after a few months of living with the Hodgkinsons, the Belleville News-Democrat reports. The Hodgkinsons gave an interview to the paper after her suicide, calling her a “very practical, level-headed girl.”

This is the heart-warming moment three young children found out they could stay with their family 'forever and ever' as they unwrapped their adoption papers on Christmas morning. The video shows American couple Michael and Sarah Perks giving their foster children the good news as they sit down to open the gifts piled underneath the tree. The eldest child, a boy, breaks down in tears when he opens a box and sees the adoption papers for him and his two biological siblings.

HOUSTON, Texas--The federal government is in dire need of U.S. citizens willing to house the thousands of illegal immigrants who enter the country each week, and they are willing to pay them to do so. The Texas-based nonprofit Catholic Charities is currently seeking out foster families for the migrants, most of whom come from Central America. Ruth Braiser, a spokeswoman for the organization, told Breitbart Texas that foster families can receive monthly payments for housing adult immigrants who are under 23-years-old. "Most of our children are 15 to 17-years-old," she said. "But some stay in our program until they are...

Miguel Padilla ran away from a licensed group home in April 2008, but he didn't go far. Unknown to anyone at the time, the 17-year-old amputee made his way to a stand of trees near the main driveway. Using his one arm, he climbed into the branches, tied a makeshift noose to a limb and hanged himself. Nine days passed before a staffer found his body at the sprawling LeRoy Haynes Center in LaVerne, coroner's records show -- and then only by chance. "To our knowledge there was no search by LeRoy's or any other authority," said Dave Rentz, the...

WASHINGTON - Standards for enlisting foster children in federal medical experiments vary widely among the states, and the Bush administration is examining how best to protect "the most vulnerable in our population," a top government health official says. "Foster children are certainly vulnerable and failing to protect them will not be tolerated," Health and Human Services Deputy Assistant Secretary Donald Young said in testimony prepared for delivery Wednesday to a congressional panel investigating the use of foster children in federal research. The House Ways and Means human resources subcommittee called the hearing to examine the practice after The Associated Press...
