Exactly right. The Durbin dust-up is peanuts compared with the abortion drug approval.
If you were outraged at Cupich’s attempt to honor Durbin and by Pope Leo’s temporizing, you should be 1000 times more outraged by this. Because unlike their actions, this one will result in hundreds of thousands of murdered unborn children https://t.co/6ljPaJDrj4 via @dcexaminer

Glad to see some leadership in the Senate. Now pro-life orgs need to follow. It's time to be less scared about America First networking and more scared about meeting God having not spoken up for the most vulnerable. It's not time for joint statements. It's time to march.

First time I heard the name Cam Skattebo was when a friend sent me this clip of a Texas player asking if he could pray for him after a game. He accepted, knelt with him, and I thought, that's a grown man right there. Completely secure in his faith and manhood. Glad we got him.

Pro-life groups and Christian media have no leverage to pressure Trump-Vance on mifepristone because they became pro-Trump pamphleteering outfits. It's now impossible to tell the truth and save face. Values-based groups should never grow attached to any single politician.
Under Biden, the FDA removed in-person requirements—no doctor, no oversight, no safeguards. The result? Women facing ER visits, hemorrhaging, infections, and worse. The Senators call this the biggest threat to unborn life in America today.

The Democrat candidate for Virginia Governor refused to pull her endorsement of this guy. Insane.
The Democrat candidate for Virginia Governor repeatedly REFUSED to pull her endorsement of the guy who fantasized about MURDERING his political opponent. He wished death upon CHILDREN. She needs to drop out. Now.

Trump could reinstate the lax Obama-Trump abortion pill rules if he wanted to. His administration has so far chosen to keep the even more liberal Biden abortion pill rules in place.

President Donald Trump's FDA approved a generic version of the abortion pill mifepristone, betraying his pro-life base.

To be honest, I didn't even know Vancouver Parks and Recreations had avowed me, so the disavowal hasn't been much of a blow. Next time, send me a certificate of avowal, wait until I've proudly framed it, hung it over my PC and taken a selfie with it, THEN revoke it.

Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo are also going to have a multi-hour meeting after this game but it's just going to be them hitting wrestling finishers off the couch on each other

Wait patiently. God's timing is always better than your own plans.

Now isn't the time for joint letters. It's time to march. What happened to the pro-life movement? When did it stop believing in its power? Of course, there's risk in crossing America First. Everyone wants to be invited to the next gala, asked to speak at the next panel. But

Remarkable quote.
I wonder what Rep. Henry Hyde (RIP) would make of this sort of blatant pro-abortion behavior from top leaders in the GOP—especially Vance, the convert to Catholicism. I’ll never forget his unapologetic defense of the unborn (see quote below):

This sycophancy enabled Trump-Vance to advance the culture of death out of political expediency.
Reagan, both Bushes, and their Vice Presidents all hid in the White House during the March For Life and refused to be associated with it. Trump has now sent both of his Vice Presidents to appear, and appeared himself in 2020. Most pro-life president we’ve ever had, by a mile.

Jakub Grygiel argues in our In Focus section that selling Tomahawks to Ukraine is the only way to end the war. I think he's right. @j_grygiel @HooverInst @CatholicUniv @HumanEcologyCUA

President Donald Trump should supply Ukraine with Tomahawk cruise missiles. Putin will only end the war when Russia feels pain.

The shrill loudmouths who insisted during the campaign that there was nothing for pro-lifers to worry about or that in any event we should wait until after the election to raise criticisms seem strangely silent of late.
@FeserEdward You beat me to it. I was going to say Dr. Feser is proven right again.
