Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear kicked off the 2024 Democratic National Convention on Monday night by claiming that following Jesus Christ’s famous command to “love your neighbor as yourself” means supporting Democrats’ radical abortion-for-all agenda.
Beshear opened his lie-filled screed by attacking former President Donald Trump and his vice presidential pick, Sen. J.D. Vance, for their sympathetic stance towards pro-lifers.
“Donald Trump appointed the Supreme Court justices who got us into this mess,” Beshear noted, taking aim at the high court’s 2022 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

While it’s true that Trump and Vance have pro-life track records, both have leaned into abortion positions in the 2024 election cycle that play into Democrats’ policy goals rather than adequately reflecting and acting on Americans’ feelings about the barbaric practice. Yet, Beshear still claimed the Republican candidates “simply don’t believe in your freedom.”
“Trump says people are absolutely thrilled that women have their basic rights eliminated. J.D. Vance says women should stay in violent marriages and that pregnancies resulting from rape are simply inconvenient,” Beshear declared.
In an MSNBC appearance the morning after his speech, Beshear appeared to wish he could make Vance “go through” a pregnancy resulting from rape.
Beshear’s assertions about Vance’s positions are all lies and certainly not rhetoric
