Eight Babies From Tim Walz’s State “Were Left to Die” After They Survived Abortions
National | Joshua Mercer |
During Tuesday night’s presidential debate, ABC’s Linsey Davis “fact-checked” former President Donald Trump’s comments regarding children who survive abortions.
A chorus of journalists immediately questioned Davis’ “correction” of Trump, expressing that the Republican nominee made a valid point about some states’ pro-abortion policies.
Davis, who co-moderated the debate alongside her ABC colleague David Muir, claimed: “There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born.”
The moderator made the claim after Trump answered her question regarding his stance on abortion.
In Trump’s answer, he said that the Democrats take a “radical” position on the issue, adding: “They have abortion in the ninth month.”
Trump had also referred to a 2019 interview of then-Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat, who said that a “discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother” if a baby was born alive following a failed late-term abortion. Trump initially incorrectly referred to Northam as the former governor of West Virginia.
Minutes after Davis attempted to debunk Trump’s response, the Media Research Center took to X (formerly Twitter) with a “fact check” of its own.
“Babies are regularly murdered after they are born in botched abortions,” wrote the watchdog group.
The Daily Signal’s Mary Margaret Olohan wrote in an article last month, “data from the Minnesota Department of Health shows that at least eight babies who survived abortions” in Minnesota “were left to die.”
Signal Managing Editor Tyler O’Neil posted a link to Olohan’s piece on X shortly after Davis’ “fact check” at the debate.
Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz has been the Governor of Minnesota since 2019.
“Under a 2015 Minnesota law, the state formerly was required to report whether abortions resulted in the live birth of a baby, what actions were taken to preserve the life of that baby, and whether the baby survived,” Olohan continued:
Those reporting requirements exposed that between Jan. 1, 2021, and Dec. 31, 2021, physicians performed five abortions that resulted in a baby’s live birth.
No measures were taken to help the first baby, who reportedly had “fetal anomalies” that resulted “in death shortly after delivery.” Two of the babies were given “comfort care measures” as they died. No measures were taken to “preserve life” of the last two babies, who were previable.
Previous data from the Minnesota Department of Health reveals that physicians have been leaving babies to die after failed abortions for years.
“Not true, ABC News,” wrote Family Research Council (FRC) President Tony Perkins on X Wednesday afternoon, responding to Davis’ “fact check.”
“In 12 states, children born alive after a failed abortion have no legal protection, and in three more states children born alive after an abortion had legal rights that governors—like Tim Walz—repealed,” Perkins wrote, citing the FRC’s data.
“Medical personnel have testified of babies being left to die or gruesomely killed after being born alive following a failed abortion,” he added.
Perkins posted a map to X showing each state’s level of protection for babies born alive following failed abortions. The map is also available on the FRC website.
Compact Magazine founder and editor Matthew Schmitz wrote on X Wednesday: “In 2022, years before Tim Walz emerged on the national scene, I pointed out that babies who survived abortion procedures were being left to die in Minnesota.”
Schmitz referred to a July 2022 post by pro-life journalist Micaiah Bilger.
In the post, Bilger enclosed what Schmitz referred to as a screenshot from the Walz administration’s Minnesota Department of Health.
“FIVE babies were born alive in abortions and left to die in Minnesota in 2021,” Bilger wrote, underlining nearly identical language in the screenshot. “FIVE – in one state!”
As always the democratic party is the party of death! They love to destroy lives from abortion to trans surgeries which destroys the mental and physical lives of trans people. If we don’t return to God, He will surely judge America. Rh
Trump’s Abortion Pivot Sparks Outcry: ‘This Is Wrong … And We Cannot Be Silent’
By Suzanne Bowdey
The shock hasn’t worn off for pro-lifers, who continue to watch with dismay as Donald Trump and his Catholic running mate, Senator J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), seem to publicly disavow years of conservative principles on the unborn. Reaction is still pouring inover the former president’s tweet that his administration would be “great” for “reproductive rights,” a euphemism for abortion that many see as a devastating surrender in itself. It would be one thing, the editors of National Review wrote, “for a Republican candidate for national office to say that a federal law against abortion is unattainable, or even undesirable,” given the current political realities. But at this point, they continue, “pro-lifers have to wonder if there’s any difference left between the parties on abortion.”
Of course, as veterans of the movement know, the warning signs loomed large well before July’s Republican National Convention, when Trump’s inside circle hinted that abortion would no longer be an issue of common concern but a political inconvenience that the former president would try to avoid at all costs. The ensuing party platform cemented those fears, shredding paragraphs of pro-life vision and values in exchange for four sentences that promised merely to “oppose Late Term Abortion” and support mothers.
Even that seems to be in doubt after Vance’s Sunday interview, in which he walked back any support for a 15-week federal threshold for abortion, which is past the point unborn babies can feel pain. Asked whether or not he would commit to not “impos[ing] a federal ban on abortion,” Vance replied, “I can absolutely commit that.” He continued, “I think it’s important to step back and say, ‘What has Donald Trump actually said on the abortion question, and how is it different from what Kamala Harris and the Democrats have said?’ Donald Trump wants to end this culture war over this particular topic.”
In what appears to be a big departure from Trump’s first term as president, Vance wouldn’t even commit to the 45th president’s former positions — which, until recently, were considered the bare minimum of bipartisan federal policy: blocking taxpayer-funded abortion at home and abroad, stopping the military’s war on the unborn, and ending the shipment of abortion pills to pro-life states.
It is terribly troubling the “new stance” of Trump on abortion. We all knew it was coming but still deeply concerned of a move away from Moral Conservative values. We always have to compromise. We are used to it, but still not happy about it. Rh
Free Abortions Offered to DNC Attendees – Pro-Lifers Criticize the ‘Shout Your Abortion’ Agenda
Can the Democratic Party get any lower on the morality pole than this? I wonder if the powers that be in the Democratic socialist party of America, have any exceptions to abortion on demand? What if a baby is born alive, would you save the life of that child? About 92% of all abortions performed in America are done for convenience, not because of the life of the mother being in danger, rape or incest.
Unfortunately, the Republican Party is taking a similar track. It barely mentioned pro life in their platform for 2024. And in fact, the standard bearer of the Republican Party Donald Trump, has blamed pro-lifers for the defeats of some of the candidates. He endorsed in the midterms in 2022. He seems to want to make it a state issue. Well I would agree with him on that if we were not for the fact that when you take the life of a child, it is called murder. This country should never allow a baby to be ripped apart and killed in the process of abortion.
I pray that America will soon return to its spiritual roots and rebuild the foundation of a nation born on Judeo Christian values. God help us all if we do not. Rh
‘Evangelicals for Harris’ Targets Conservative Christians with New Media Spot
By David Brody CBN News
Let me just say this….if you are an Evangelical and you vote for Kamala, you need to repent. Flat out get to an altar. Rh
CBN News has learned that a newly formed group, Evangelicals For Harris, will drop their first media spot Wednesday in an effort to win over some “on-the-fence” Conservative Evangelicals in swing states who are lukewarm when it comes to Donald Trump.
The videos will start on social media and eventually make their way to TV in certain swing states. Specifically, and most interestingly, Evangelicals For Harris will be targeting conservative Christian media websites. The group already has over 200,000 Evangelical Christians who have signed a pledge to volunteer and vote for the Harris/Walz ticket.
Donald Trump won a hefty majority of the conservative evangelical vote. However, typically elections are won at the margins, especially in the seven key swing states. Evangelicals for Harris is using this strategy in hopes of eventual victory. If history has something to say, it may work.
In 2008, Barack Obama received 26% of the White Born Again Evangelical Vote and won. In 2016, Hillary Clinton received 16% of the White Born Again Evangelical Vote and lost. In 2020, Joe Biden received 24% of the White Born Again Evangelical Vote and won. So if Kamala Harris gets 20% or more of the White Born Again Evangelical Vote, Trump could very well lose the General Election to Harris.

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

State AG: Why many are refusing to follow Biden’s abortion agenda
Bob Unruh WND
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.”
