President Donald Trump and pro-life legislators have promised to defund Planned Parenthood, and as taxpayers, it is our duty to hold them to this promise. Planned Parenthood is the country’s number one abortion business. But they also target children with “sex ed” in schools, push hormones to gender-confused teens, and have recently created a program to target youth in prisons. And they do it all with money from donors, grants, and taxpayers.

When contrasting the abortion numbers to other causes of death, including cancer, HIV/AIDS, traffic accidents and suicide, abortions far outnumbered every other cause. By contrast, an estimated 10 million people died from cancer in 2024, 6.2 million from smoking, 17 million from disease, and 2 million died of HIV/AIDS. Deaths by malaria and alcohol are also recorded.

With 67.1 million people dying last year from a cause other than abortion and 140 million people dying in total from abortion and all causes, that means abortions accounted for almost 52% of every death around the world last year.

The bill would be similar to SB 3499, a bill that was filed by Senator Linda Holmes in February 2024. This is not the first time that the assisted suicide lobby has tried to pass killer legislation during a Lame Duck or even Special Session. That is how assisted suicide was legalized in California in 2015.

After decades of forcing couples to have just one child — going as far as to forcibly abort children — and convincing generations that one was the right number of children to have, the Chinese government amended its population control policies in 2016 and then again in 2021, but those changes are not having an effect. According to Newsweek, in October, China’s State Council created a new group of measures aimed at increasing the birth rate.

But by attending a suicide party or ceremony, we validate the decision and, in so doing, become complicit in that death. This matters because even the most ill suicidal persons can, with proper prevention interventions, change their minds. By supporting the suicide choice, we may be robbing our loved one of a last chance at further life that he or she might have found satisfying and worth living.

The United Kingdom (UK) is considering legalizing assisted suicide, and Politico interviewed various experts on the issue to examine the overall trend of legalized assisted suicide and euthanasia throughout Europe. Martin Buijsen, professor of health law at the Erasmus University Rotterdam, told the outlet that while it might take time, legalization in every country across the continent was “inevitable.” Another expert, Theo Boer, professor of health care ethics at Protestant Theological University, noted there are implications not often acknowledged in legalizing assisted suicide.

People are absorbed by unrealities, such as artificial intelligence and social media, marriage rates are at record lows, and the American mental health crisis continues. Of course, the anti-life character is most evident in abortion laws throughout the country. Public support for abortion is high, and seven states passed pro-abortion amendments this past election. What is more, late-term abortions are common and little-restricted.

“In every single dose of an MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) shot, there are literally, literally millions of pieces from the cultured cell line of an aborted fetus in every single injection,” Siri explained to a stunned Carlson. “I could literally pull up right now the CDC’s own ingredient list for the MMR vaccine.”

Police detained a pro-life father and husband outside an Ohio abortion clinic for sharing the Gospel and offering to adopt abortion-minded women’s babies. Still, he plans to return to the clinic this weekend.

Zack and Lindsay Knotts have spent the past three Saturdays outside Northeast Ohio Women’s Center in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, an hour drive from their home in Youngstown. The Christian couple takes turns using amplified sound to preach the Gospel, plead with mothers to choose life, and offer women free resources. They even volunteer to adopt the women’s babies themselves.

Abortion increased 90% in the nation’s abortion capital of New York, one report shows. Outlawing abortion in pro-life states certainly reduces abortion incidences, but just in those states. Those restrictions do not appear to have the same effect nationwide. 2023 is the first full year in a post-Roe America. According to a recent article, the Guttmacher Institute claims New York’s 2023 numbers are up 90% over 2022 to a whopping 130,000. That’s the highest number ever recorded for a single year since NY legalized abortion in July of 1970.

For the third consecutive year, Virginia governor Glenn Youngkin has proposed a budget amendment that would eliminate taxpayer-funded abortions for fetal anomalies. According to Virginia Mercury, current state law allows state insurance to cover abortions for cases in which a doctor has diagnosed “gross and totally incapacitating physical deformity or with a gross and totally incapacitating mental deficiency.” Youngkin’s proposed budget amendment would explicitly remove this, with language saying “no expenditures from general or non-general fund sources may be made out of any appropriation by the General Assembly for providing abortion services, except otherwise as required by federal law or state statute.”

The mother of Colorado Buffaloes football star Travis Hunter said that while others called her pregnancy with Hunter a “mistake,” he has instead been her biggest blessing. Hunter’s mother, Ferrante Edmonds, made the remarks during an interview about her son’s recent Heisman Trophy win.
