Outcry Grows over Nearly 5-Year Prison Sentence of Pro-Life Activist

Lawmakers, legal experts, and analysts are decrying the nearly five-year prison sentence levied on a pro-life activist as an example of the weaponization of the federal government against citizens with disfavored political views.

On Tuesday, pro-life activist Lauren Handy was sentenced to 57 months in prison for leading a group of other activists in blockading the entrance to a Washington, D.C. abortion facility in October 2020. Handy was prosecuted by the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Civil Rights Division along with nine other co-defendants and became the first person ever to be sentenced for violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. The FACE Act was originally designed to protect both pregnancy resource centers and abortion facilities, but the Biden administration has notably used the law to justify the prosecution of pro-life activists on numerous occasions ever since the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022.

“Today’s outrageous 57-month sentence for a progressive pro-life activist is a stark reminder: Biden’s DOJ is fully weaponized against pro-life American citizens, and they are using the FACE Act to do it,” said Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) in a statement following Handy’s sentence. “House Republicans should defund the DOJ weaponization, repeal the FACE Act, and stand up for the freedoms that we campaign on.”

On Wednesday, Peter Breen, who represents Handy in the case and serves as executive vice president and head of litigation at Thomas More Society, pointed out on “Washington Watch with Tony Perkins” that in addition to the FACE Act charge, the DOJ unearthed an obscure “conspiracy against rights” law to prosecute Handy.

“[T]he traditional way you deal with folks doing civil disobedience is they get a trespass charge — you get a slap on the wrist and they move on,” he noted. “I mean, [look at what] we’ve been through in the last five years or so. [O]ur cities have been burned and people weren’t even charged. And now we’re looking at people that peaceably came into a late-term abortion facility where we think we’ve got evidence of illegal abortions [as well as] actual homicides of little children that were born. And our folks are getting five years in a federal penitentiary for that. That makes no sense.”

There truly is a death culture in the United States. The radical feminist and democratic socialist have jumped into bed with a Luciferian doctrine of death to the vulnerable. Why in this modern world can we not come together on this one thing, life to the unborn? Why the need to kill? Women who have been given the precious ability, by God , to bring forth life are always at the forefront of pushing the extremes of killing babies. America has become a bloody nation. How long will God hold back his anger and judgement? God have mercy on us! Rh

Now the real reason for allowing the southern to remain wide open rears its ugly head. Amir Tsarfati reporting

House Dems just voted UNANIMOUSLY to give illegals representation in Congress AND the Electoral College. House Seats and Electoral College votes WILL BE added to areas with the most illegals (including all Biden illegals) unless Senate passes the bill. Invasion by design.

As I have said before many times, the reason the southern border is open is because it is a way to bring illegals in and register them as Democratic voters. I am fearful for what is about to happen to our country. We are losing it and we have no one in D.C. that is willing to defend it. Where is the Speaker of the House? Why is no one trying to stop this? Have they been compromised? Rh

Coalition of Republican Senators Urge Biden Admin to Not Give WHO Authority Over US

By CBN News Talia Wise


A coalition of U.S. senators is demanding the Biden administration withdraw its support of two international agreements that would grant greater authority to the World Health Organization (WHO) and potentially weaken America’s sovereignty.

As CBN News reported, the White House submitted 13 amendments for a pandemic-related treaty last May that essentially give the WHO the right to tell the U.S. what to do in a pandemic. Opponents warn the treaty essentially gives up control of the country’s health care system.

The treaty, which includes 300 proposals to increase the WHO’s emergency powers, is being considered later this month during the World Health Assembly (WHA).

The treaty would allow the W.H.O. to declare a health emergency in the United States, require the U.S. to report to an international “Compliance Committee” on whether it was obeying W.H.O. directives, and would create an enforcement mechanism to essentially punish nations that don’t follow the W.H.O.’s directives.  

U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) joined Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) and a host of other Republican senators and pointed out the organization’s response to the pandemic was “abysmal.”

“The WHO’s failure during the COVID-19 pandemic was as total as it was predictable and did lasting harm to our country,” the letter reads. 

“The United States cannot afford to ignore the latest WHO inability to perform its most basic function and must insist on comprehensive WHO reforms before even considering amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHR) or any pandemic-related treaty that would increase WHO authority,” the group warns.

Idaho Senator Jim Risch outlined in another letter the specific missteps taken by the WHO.

“(Their) track record over the last three years is nothing short of abysmal. When the Chinese government lied to the world in the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, the WHO parroted and praised China’s officials,” he explained. 

“When it became clear China was covering up truths about the deadliest health emergency in a century, the WHO did nothing to hold it responsible,” he added. “The WHO has failed in its core mission to protect global health time and again.”

The senators concluded, “Should you ignore this advice, we state in the strongest possible terms that we consider any such agreement to be a treaty requiring the concurrence of two-thirds of the Senate under Article II Section 2 of the Constitution.”

The W.H.O. Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has denied the arguments that the organization is trying to gain power, adding that the W.H.O. could not override the sovereignty of member nations.

“W.H.O. is an expression of member states’ own sovereignty and W.H.O. is entirely what the sovereign 194 member states want W.H.O. to be,” Tedros said. 

Travis Weber, vice president for Policy and Government Affairs at the Family Research Council, told CBN News that even if the International Health Regulations had a treaty to enforce their rule, the U.S. Constitution should have the final say in how America responds in another pandemic and not the W.H.O.

“That means even with a treaty that we are party to that the Senate has given advise and consent to, it does not trump the Constitution, even in the case of a treaty. It’s similar to a statute passed by Congress in its level of authority,” Weber told CBN News. “The Constitution still trumps that.”

This would be the final straw against the sovereignty of our great nation to allow a socialist organization to be able to supersede American laws and the Constitution. Please, please call your Senators and representatives to tell them to stop this egregious move on our freedoms! Rh.

State AG: Why many are refusing to follow Biden’s abortion agenda

Steve Marshall serves as the attorney general for the state of Alabama, and in an interview with the Washington Stand is explaining why his state, and more than a dozen others, are refusing to go along with Joe Biden’s latest abortion promotion.

In this case, the Biden administration has actively hijacked a definitively pro-life law and turned it around to direct support to the nation’s lucrative abortion industry.

Marshall, joining “Watchington Watch,” explained the law involved is the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, which was written to protect expectant mothers from unfair discrimination.

But Joe Biden’s Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has added to the congressional action a rule that turns it into a scheme that benefits abortionists.

He explained the original bill, bipartisan in its support was to “make sure that we accommodate pregnant women in the workplace because we want to have healthy pregnancies and children that come to birth.”

The EEOC then pushed forward an abortion rule that would “make sure that states like Alabama would have to violate state law to somehow or another accommodate a woman who wants an abortion.”

He explained even Democrats noted that the idea wasn’t to promote abortion.

“One of the Democratic sponsors of this bill made it very clear on the floor of the Senate that this bill had nothing to do with abortion [and] assured his colleagues on both sides of the aisle the intention of this bill. And yet, despite its clear language, what we see is [the] Biden administration co-opting a valid, appropriate law to be able to enforce this pro-abortion agenda.

“I know we shouldn’t be surprised, but it’s one of the reasons why I’m so proud of my colleagues across the country on many pro-life issues, because we’re standing in that gap that we need in this country to make sure that we can push back on an administration that’s just simply gone too far,” he told the Stand.

There are 17 AGs who have joined in a lawsuit over Biden’s newest abortion plan, opposing the bureaucrats in the EEOC.

“This is an unelected, unaccountable group. … We’ve seen this on multiple fronts with this administration, whether it be attacking pro-life states like Alabama. We’ve seen it with this radical gender ideology that’s being pushed through multiple federal programs. It’s why, uniquely, attorneys general in this important time in our nation have the opportunity to be able to hold [the administration] in check.”

Arizona rancher will not be retried for murder following hung jury in deadly shooting of illegal alien: ‘Nightmare is over’

The elderly Arizona rancher whose murder trial recently resulted in a hung jury will not be retried, prosecutors said.

In January 2023, 48-year-old Gabriel Cuen-Buitimea, a Mexican national who had been deported from the U.S. multiple times after he crossed the border illegally, was found shot to death on the property of 75-year-old George Alan Kelly. Kelly owns 170 acres of land near Nogales, Arizona, which is across the border from Nogales, Mexico. 

Kelly was the person who found Cuen-Buitimea’s body and called police to report it. Kelly admitted to firing several warning shots into the air earlier that day after he spotted a group of men armed with AK-47s invading his property but insisted that none of the warning shots could have possibly hit anyone, Daniel Horowitz, host of “Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz,” reported shortly after Kelly’s arrest.

Kelly was ultimately charged with second-degree murder. He had previously refused a plea deal that would have convicted him of one count of negligent homicide.

At Kelly’s trial earlier this month, his attorney, Brenna Larkin, noted that the bullet which killed Cuen-Buitimea was never recovered and argued that Cuen-Buitimea’s unzipped backpack and broken buckle suggested that he had been the victim of robbery gone wrong, the Arizona Daily Star reported.

Most jurors seem to have been persuaded by Kelly’s defense. After two days of deliberations, they could not come to a unanimous decision in the case, and on April 22, Santa Cruz County Superior Court Judge Thomas Fink officially declared a mistrial. Of the five men and three women on the jury, seven had voted to acquit, leaving “one, lone holdout” voting to convict, a statement from Kelly’s defense team said.

Outside the courthouse, Kelly told reporters the “nightmare is over” and expressed condolences to Cuen-Buitimea’s loved ones.

Finally justice has been served. We must be allowed to protect our property and our lives from illegals coming into our country. Rh
