At Michigan State University, it wasn’t enough that conservatives had to listen to their marketing professor’s abortion extremism — they were forced to finance it. In a story that one attorney calls one of the worst instances of classroom abuse he’s seen, a member of the marketing faculty, Amy Wisner, was charging students a $99 “membership fee” on top of their regular tuition to join an online group called The Rebellion Community.

Planned Parenthood proclaimed in a tweet that “any reason is the right reason” for an abortion. The tweet linked to a brief video in which a self-described transgender person said that having an abortion was “one of the best decisions” she had made.

By most standards, 19-year-old Cindy Collins was a naïve college student when she faced an unplanned pregnancy. It was 1973 and she was unaware of anything outside her immediate sphere of daily living.

Lawmakers in the Nevada Assembly passed a bill on May 24 allowing assisted suicide. The bill, which passed the Senate in April, now heads to the desk of Republican Governor Joe Lombardo, who needs to sign it in order for it to go into effect.

Demography nerds assiduously follow the data popping up about fast-ageing societies, their loss of dynamism and prospects of population collapse. With each successive generation significantly smaller than the last, we know where we’re headed. While population collapse is an environmentalist’s dream, it is an unfolding nightmare for humanity at large. The world’s economic engine, the Global North, is already shrinking.

In recent weeks, Austin and past defense secretaries have fired off missives warning of readiness problems. How much Tuberville’s hold affects readiness is hotly debated. Here is what cannot be debated: The greatest threat to military readiness is the actions of a commander-in-chief who imposes unlawful policies and undermines the sanctity of civil-military relations that are the bedrock of well-functioning armed forces. He should be ashamed to put a political agenda ahead of the purpose and mission of the armed forces and the support and well-being of those that serve.

“Literally half of the country has acted to protect unborn children and also to serve their mothers, while the left again has battled [against] every single step, every single inch, and against every single limit, no matter the gestational age of the unborn child,” Dannenfelser said. “This is what it looks like when democracy starts to get to work on such a profound human rights battle and the one of our time.”

Abortions in these states have dropped significantly, according to recent data. WeCount, a pro-choice research group, released a report that found from July 2022 to December 2022, abortions fell by 32,260 in states with active abortion restrictions. On the other hand, pro-abortion states such as New York, Virginia and New Jersey saw a slight increase in abortions per month following the Supreme Court’s decision.

The doctors came in with that serious expression on their face and said my now eight-year-old had an elevated risk of a trisomy disorder, the most famous of which is Down Syndrome, of course,” she said. “They sat me down, and they said ‘Maybe you should consider abortion.’ I said ‘Absolutely not. I’m here to be a witness to you that every single human life is precious, and that’s something that I’ve consistently maintained throughout my career, and I’m going to choose life come what may.’” Foster, who previously had an abortion at the age of 19, did not follow her doctor’s advice. Yet she said that pressure to have an abortion from doctors happens frequently, particularly when the child is believed to have a disability.
