The National Association of Religious Broadcasters, an organization composed primarily of Evangelical Protestant media figures, is holding its annual convention in Nashville this week. Dr. Ben Carson has been attending these conferences for several years now. This year, Vice-President Mike Pence also visited, and spoke at a luncheon hosted by The Life Issues Institute. Pence reassured the audience that President Trump is "the most pro-Life president in history" and that---unlike previous GOP administrations since 1974---is proactively working to end the hideous practice of legal abortion.
Pence listed some of the Administration's accomplishments to date; many of which were ignored by the Corporate Media:
1. During Trump's first week in office, he issued an Executive Order prohibiting Federal funds from being dispersed to private organizations which promote or perform abortion in foreign countries. Not only did this policy take a major bite out of George Soros' profit-margins; it eliminated a huge cause of anti-American sentiments abroad.
What isn't widely known is that, since the Clinton years, the US Government often made foreign aid conditional upon accepting Cultural Marxist programs like abortion-on-demand. This naturally caused resentment in many foreign countries where abortion is either illegal or not culturally acceptable.
2. Related to Point #1, the Trump Administration suspended all further payments to the United Nations Population Fund. This group paid for abortions globally. Actually, Trump's decision was a measure of 'Swamp Draining' too. Because it was primarily American Leftists in this fund who were imposing abortion on other countries.
3. The President signed into law H.R. 354---one in which Pence cast a tie-breaking Senate vote. This Bill allows states to block unilaterally Federal Title X funding to abortion mills like Planned Parenthood. Unfortunately because of a pair of RINOs---Senators Collins and Murkowski---the Senate failed to pass a subsequent Bill which would have banned abortion after 20 weeks.
Most importantly, however, is that Trump has been appointing consistently pro-Life judges with the ultimate aim of repealing the infamous Roe vs. Wade decision of 1973. That year, by 7-2 majority, the Court ruled that state laws restricting abortion violated the 14th Amendment's Due Process Clause. The Court Majority that year was comprised of a number of Deep-State Swamp-RINOs, Left-Wing activists, and the legendary jurist William O. Douglas, who was in an advanced state of senility. Another legendary jurist---Byron White---dissented from the vote, noting the obvious objection that there were state laws against abortion long prior to the 14th Amendment's ratification. White also stated that:
"I find nothing in the language or history of the Constitution to support the Court's decision. The Court has simply fashioned and announced a new Constitutional Right for pregnant women and, with scarcely any reason or authority for its actions, invests that Right with sufficient substance to override most State abortion statutes. The upshot is that the people and legislators of all 50 States are Constitutionally disentitled to weigh the relative importance of the continued existence and development of the foetus on the one hand, against a possible spectrum of impacts on the woman."
We quoted this passage from the late Justice White to show that, contrary to pro-abortion propagandists, opposition to Roe vs. Wade was not and never was, an argument based solely on religion, but based on established legal precedent. White further said, "As an exercise of raw judicial power, the Court may have authority to do what it does today; but in my view, its judgment is an improvident and extravagant abuse of the power of judicial review which the Constitution extends to this Court...while I might agree with the Court's values and priorities, I see no Constitutional warrant for imposing such an order of priorities upon the people and legislatures of the States."
Also contrary to pro-abortion propagandists, Vice-President Pence also stated his belief that public attitudes are shifting against the abortionists, even---and especially---among the young. Given this Administration's record of successes, it's not wholly inconceivable that we could see the downfall of the Abortion Racket within a few years.
