Abortion advocates love to hide behind euphemisms and slogans, while avoiding the horrific truth of what abortion truly is. Congressman Brand Gill from Texas went viral on social media last week for grilling a pro-abortion advocate during a judiciary hearing. Gill asked Jessica Waters, a scholar at American University, what her favorite kind of abortion is. When she refused to give a clear answer,...

A remarkable story from Dubai is reminding the world that even the smallest babies can fight for life. Baby Talia was born at just 22 weeks and five days gestation, weighing only 400 grams, less than one pound. Doctors say she is the youngest premature baby ever recorded to survive in the United Arab Emirates.   Born at the very edge of viability, Talia spent 129 days in intensive care f...

The U.S. Supreme Court has handed down a unanimous decision protecting free speech and donor privacy for a pro-life pregnancy center in New Jersey. In  First Choice Women’s Resource Centers v.

A new documentary is sounding the alarm on a growing global crisis: declining birth rates.

Christians have been shown to adopt children at more than double the rate of the general population. Unfortunately, during the Biden administration Christian families faced bureaucratic hurdles aimed at preventing them from fostering or adopting.

Maison DesChamps, a pro-life activist, and friend of mine, known as “Pro-Life Spiderman,” has been sentenced to two months in jail for climbing the sphere in Las Vegas.   He did the daring climb to raise money to help a pregnant woman choose life for her unborn baby and keep her off the streets as she faced homelessness. Because of Maison’s climb a...

The abortion industry has consistently repeated the lie that dangerous abortion drugs are “safer than Tylenol.” This deception has led many women to take the drugs not knowing that 1 in 10 women who do so will find themselves in the emergency room. Now, Senator Jim Banks is requesting the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the drug companies pushing the dangerous pill.&#...

A new report out of Canada should make the hair on your neck stand up. Polling data from the Angus Reid Institute found that 28% of Canadians support allowing euthanasia for individuals whose sole condition is mental illness.   It is good to note that 50% of respondents still oppose it, but more than a quarter of people supporting euthanasia for those w...

Despite the false claims of the abortion industry, multiple states with strong pro-life protections have actually seen their maternal mortality rates drop in recent years.

A nearly 900-page report from the Department of Justice now proves that the Biden administration used the federal FACE Act to disproportionately target pro-life activists, even though most threats and violence were coming from abortion activists. The report found that:  “The Biden DOJ violated the rights of Americans by its biased enforcement of the FA...

Planned Parenthood has become one of the nation’s largest providers of cross-sex hormones.

In a strong stand for life, President Trump has released his proposed fiscal year 2027 budget that would once again defund Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider. The budget includes a new provision in the Labor-HHS appropriations bill explicitly blocking federal taxpayer dollars from flowing to abortion businesses like Planned Parenthood. It also eliminates the $101 million Te...

In a surprising but welcome move, Disney’s new wordless animated short film “Versa” is receiving strong praise for its powerful pro-life themes.

This is what happens when human life is considered disposable. In Texas, 21-year-old Cody Arnold impregnated 16-year-old Katelynn Stone, then conspired with his 25-year-old girlfriend Chelsea Shipp to murder the pregnant teen and hide what he had done and avoid the sex offender registry.   While Katelynn slept, Shipp shot her in the head killi...

In 2025, the Netherlands reported 10,341 euthanasia deaths—a record high and 6% of all deaths in the country. Behind these numbers are alarming trends: almost 500 people with dementia, 475 with age-related conditions, and 174 with mental disorders were killed, including individuals no longer mentally competent to consent. Even more troubling, seven cases failed to meet the nation’s own “due care”...

Planned Parenthood recently announced the closure of two more abortion facilities, this time in Indianapolis.

A recent paper published in the University of Chicago Press journal  Ethics  argues that abortion should be considered “adequate care” for pregnant minors. The authors contend that doctors have a moral duty to ensure underage girls undergo abortions, even if the girl or her family objects.   The paper suggests that, in some cases, abortion could be carried out using sedation or...

The latest report highlighted by Guttmacher Institute reveals a troubling reality: abortion numbers in the United States have risen, driven in large part by the spread of mail-order abortion pills and telehealth access.   Even as some states have enacted protections for unborn life, the mail out distribution is bypassing those safeguards and expanding access nationwid...

In Massachusetts, a disturbing trend is emerging that should alarm anyone who values human life. New data show that abortions in the state more than doubled in just one year, jumping from about 24,000 in 2023 to nearly 50,000 in 2024.   What’s driving this surge? The widespread use of abortion pills like mifepristone, which now account for more than 80 percent of...

Pro-life education like this changes ...

Those with Down syndrome have tragically been targeted by abortions for years, but this story goes even further.

She chose life.  Suggesting that a precious child deserves to be abandoned, left to di...
