Ryan Bomberger, Somehow the “My Body, My Choice” crowd doesn’t understand the difference between an elective “choice” and essential health care. Likewise, federal judges who support abortion also don’t seem to understand the difference between constitutional and unconstitutional. Pandemics don’t change a lie. In ruling against Texas’ temporary ban on abortion procedures (as with all…
Marjorie Dannenfelser, Just when you think abortion extremists in Congress can’t sink any lower, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) threatened to make two sitting U.S. Supreme Court justices “pay the price” if they vote to uphold popular pro-life laws. Recently the Court heard oral arguments in June Medical Services v. Russo, the first major abortion…
David Harsanyi, On the day Chuck Schumer was threatening Supreme Court justices in front of pack of a cheering partisans, Representative Ayanna Pressley told the same crowd: “We have two alleged sexual predators on the bench of the highest court of the land, with the power to determine our reproductive freedoms.

James Gottry, From the stage of the Golden Globes to the homepage of The Washington Post, women are praising abortion. What does it all mean, and what are we to do? Last week, The Washington Post offered this headline: “Five years after an abortion, most women say they made the right decision.” Researchers questioned 667 women across the…
Kathryn Lopez, You may have seen the Michelle Williams Golden Globes speech by now. The actress credited abortion for allowing her to achieve her professional successes. Pro-life and pro-choice people said what you would have expected in response, but what seemed to be largely missed was the misery. When New York state expanded legal abortion…
