Leftist Lawyers Try To Protect Killing The Unborn By Calling It A Religion

Published

on

The Supreme Court’s decision last summer in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that “the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion” did not stop the attacks on legal protection for the unborn. Going forward, most challenges will make familiar arguments but shift the venue from federal to state courts. Abortion lawyers are also launching less conventional attacks, including that pro-life laws violate the right, under state constitutions or statutes, to freely exercise religion.

Last year, for example, a Jewish congregation in Florida and clergy from other religious bodies challenged Florida’s ban on abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy. Jewish congregations in Ohio challenged that state’s ban on abortions after a fetal heartbeat can be detected. And several Jewish women challenged Kentucky’s near-total ban on abortion. In each of these cases, the argument is that the law prohibits abortions that the plaintiffs’ religion allows.

A similar suit in Indiana, brought by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) on behalf of such clients as Hoosier Jews for Choice, asserts that the Jewish faith actually requires an abortion under certain circumstances. The plaintiffs claim that Indiana’s ban on almost all abortions violates its Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), which prohibits the government from “substantially burden[ing] a person’s exercise of religion” unless it is the “least restrictive means” of furthering a “compelling governmental interest.” Indiana’s law is modeled on the federal RFRA, enacted in 1993 — and its legal standard, known as “strict scrutiny,” is the toughest in any area of law.

Congress overwhelmingly passed RFRA, and President Bill Clinton signed it into law in reaction to

SCOTUS Threats Suggest Democrats’ Attacks On The Court Encourage Politically Motivated Terrorism

Published

on

A 76-year-old Alaskan man is in custody after he allegedly threatened to assault, kidnap, lynch, torture, murder, and assassinate six of the nine Supreme Court justices. The names of the justices targeted, however, were withheld by the Department of Justice — likely because they confirm Democrats’ incendiary rhetoric against the conservative members of the court is working.

The DOJ announced on Thursday that Panos Anastasiou faces nine counts of making threats against a federal judge and 13 counts of making threats in interstate commerce after he sent more than 465 messages pledging harm against justices via “a public website the court maintained.”

Attorney General Merrick Garland acknowledged in the Thursday press release that the communications were rooted in Anastasiou’s desire to “retaliate against them for decisions he disagreed with.” Yet, neither he nor the Department of Justice memo announcing the arrest identified exactly which of the nine SCOTUS members and their family members were terrorized.

In fact, the DOJ went out of its way in its 11-page September 18 indictment of Anastasiou to disguise which high bench presiders were in danger for upholding their constitutional duties by reducing the justices to numbers “1-6.” Six of the nine sitting SCOTUS justices were nominated to the high bench by Republican presidents.

The document accusing the Alaskan of several felonies, however, shows Anastasiou’s threats were well timed not only with a Democrat-manufactured ethics scandal, but also decisions secured specifically by the court’s conservative majority.

In May, as corporate media ramped up Democrat-manufactured

NFL Get-Out-The-Vote Initiative Partners With Democrat Activist Groups

Published

on

Are you ready for some football?! How about some leftist-led get-out-the-vote (GOTV) games? 

Well, you get both with the NFL Votes campaign. 

The all-powerful National Football League says the “League-wide, nonpartisan initiative supports and encourages civic engagement among NFL players, and legends, club and league personnel, and fans.” Launched in 2020 as a joint effort between the NFL and NFL Players Association, NFL Votes “focuses on three key components of the electoral process: voter education, voter registration, and voter activation,” according to the league’s website.

Sounds noble enough.

But if you’re scoring along at home, the NFL’s teammates include some of the most left-wing activist organizations on the election field today. Starting on the campaign’s roster is Rock the Vote, Voto Latino, and I am a voter

Rock the Leftists

Rock the Vote has been around since 1990, when music executives partnered with MTV and celebrities on the “Censorship is Un-American” campaign after foul-mouthed rap acts such as N.W.A and 2 Live Crew brought out an indignant wave of speech silencers.

It was a simpler time, when MTV actually played music videos. 

Thrilled by its accomplishment of activating “millions of young people” to turn out to the polls, the leftist nonprofit has parlayed its GOTV successes into a multitude of leftist causes over its 30-plus years in operation — even as targeting the young adult vote remained central to its efforts.

“The group claims to be nonpartisan, but has produced videos throughout the years using celebrities who largely endorse a

Oprah’s Prime-Time Special With Kamala Harris Was A Shameless Tongue Bath

Published

on

Oprah Winfrey’s glitzy hour-long special with Vice President Kamala Harris Thursday night was not a feature of a serious presidential campaign, but instead a celebrity-obsessed public relations program intended to win what’s become a popularity contest.

If anyone tuned in to hear a few substantive questions about why Harris has changed so many of her policy positions, it should have been obvious what to expect by Oprah’s first question.

“Can you feel the joy rising in here?” she asks after screaming Harris’ name.

The virtual rally in Michigan marked one of Harris’ few media appearances since she became the nominee. She had only previously done one joint interview with her running mate on CNN, one brief 10-minute interview on a Pennsylvania television station, and one daytime forum with journalists at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ).

On CNN, Harris barely got pushed on anything; in Pennsylvania, she barely got asked anything; and at the NABJ conference in Philadelphia, she was merely warmed up for the town hall about girl power with Winfrey. Her first question at the NABJ summit was also about how “joy” makes Harris feel all sweet, cute, and cuddly inside.

“Why is joy important to you to insert into this election?” was literally the first thing moderators
