Democrats spend record $124 million on abortion ads in effort to keep control of Congress

9/23/2022

 
WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) – National Democrats appear to consider stoking fear about pro-life laws their best path to retaining control of Congress this fall, according to an analysis of advertising spending conducted by the Associated Press.

The AP 
reports that data from the research outfit AdImpact reveals Democrats have so far spent more than $124 million in 2022 on political ads mentioning abortion, a nearly twentyfold increase over the amount they spent on the same type of ads in the 2018 midterms. What’s more, the sum is larger than the Republican Party’s “combined national investment in ads relating to the economy, crime and immigration.”

YouTube announces crackdown on so-called abortion ‘misinformation’ likely to affect pro-life efforts

7/28/2022

 
(LifeSiteNews) – Google-owned video giant YouTube plans to begin censoring whatever it deems “misinformation” pertaining to the safety of abortion, which pro-lifers suspect will have the effect of suppressing truth rather than clarifying it...
Specifically, YouTube’s 
misinformation policy says it forbids content that “contradicts local health authorities’ or WHO guidance on the safety of […] Chemical and surgical abortion methods deemed safe by health authorities,” as well as “Promotion of alternative abortion methods in place of chemical or surgical methods deemed safe by health authorities.”
...
In fact, even when surgical abortions are committed by fully-licensed physicians, they are frequently anything but safe for the mother, as evidenced by the records of numerous abortion facilities across the country, including abortion chains embraced by abortion allies as leaders for their cause.
As for chemical abortions, under the Trump administration the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) had warned mail distributors of abortion pills that their flouting of the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) program requirements, which ensure that providers can “assess the duration of the pregnancy accurately, diagnose ectopic pregnancies, and provide surgical intervention in cases of incomplete abortion or severe bleeding, or to have made arrangements for others to provide such care” — and give women “access to medical facilities for emergency care” — could expose themselves to regulatory action potentially “including seizure or injunction, without further notice.”
That policy was reversed by the Biden administration, however, and many Democrats favor allowing doctors to dispense abortion pills to patients to take them without in-person medical supervision.

Evidence of the devastating effects COVID jabs have on male and female fertility (LifeSite News)

7/28/2022

 
  • The first COVID shots rolled out in December 2020, and it didn’t take long before doctors and scientists started warning of possible reproductive effects, as the jab may cross-react with syncytin and reproductive genes in sperm, ova, and placenta in ways that might impair reproduction.
  • According to one recent investigation, 42 percent of women with regular menstrual cycles said they bled more heavily than usual after vaccination; 39 percent of those on gender-affirming hormone treatments reported breakthrough bleeding, as did 71 percent of women on long-acting contraceptives and 66 percent of postmenopausal women.
  • Other recent research has found the Pfizer COVID jab impairs semen concentration and motile count in men for about three months.
  • Miscarriages, fetal deaths, and stillbirths have also risen after the rollout of the COVID shots. In November 2021, Lions Gate Hospital in North Vancouver, British Columbia (BC), delivered 13 stillborn babies in a 24-hour period, and all of the mothers had received the COVID jab.
  • Many countries are now reporting sudden declines in live birth rates, including Germany, the U.K., Taiwan, Hungary, and Sweden. In the five countries with the highest COVID jab uptake, fertility has dropped by an average of 15.2 percent, whereas the five countries with the lowest COVID jab uptake have seen an average decline of just 4.66 percent.

US Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade in historic ruling

6/24/2022

 
WASHINGTON (LifeSiteNews) – The United States Supreme Court finally issued its ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization Friday, upholding Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban, overturning Roe v. Wade, and delivering the pro-life cause its most transformative victory since Roe unleashed nationwide abortion-on-demand in 1973.

Justice Samuel Alito delivered the opinion of the Court, which was joined by Justices Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett. The ruling declares 
Roe “egregiously wrong from the start.”
“Its reasoning was exceptionally weak, and the decision has had damaging consequences,” Alito wrote. “The Constitution makes no reference to abortion, and no such right is implicitly protected by any constitutional provision.”

Missouri Right to Life Opposes“Ranked-Choice Voting”

5/9/2022

 
The main purpose of “ranked-choice voting” is to undo the current party system of voting.
 
In ranked-choice voting, all the candidates for an office are listed on a single ballot in the primary and then the top vote getters run against each other in the general election. The voters rank each of the candidates from most favorable (1st) to least favorable. If the candidate with the most votes does not get over 50% in the first round, the candidate with the least votes is eliminated and the votes get recalculated until a winner is determined.
 
This process is very confusing and could be easily manipulated and therefore raises issues with election integrity. From an election authority standpoint, it is a more complicated and time-consuming process with re-tabulating and recounting. Experience has shown that election results in ranked-choice voting cases have resulted in less popular candidates winning elections.
 
Missouri Right to Life sees “Ranked-choice voting” as an attempt by progressives to break down our conservative pro-life majorities in Missouri. 

For these reasons, MRL is opposed to the initiative petition to put “ranked-choice voting” on the ballot. We encourage you to not sign the ranked-choice voting initiative when approached by any person asking for your signature.
 
In addition to Missouri Right to Life’s opposition to ranked-choice voting, other groups opposing this initiative as well are: National Right to Life, Missouri Republican Party, and Concerned Women for America.
