In one of their publications, the pro-abortion group NARAL states:

“Eggs and sperm are alive; so are bacteria and all plants and animals. Of course, embryos and fetuses are alive. That doesn’t mean, though, that abortion should be illegal or that it constitutes murder. The Supreme Court has said…that legal personhood begins with birth.”

Conservatives Would Be Outraged’ If Dems Tracked Speech — But They Did!– www.newsbusters.org

On Thursday’s CNN This Morning, the panel reacted with alarm to reports that the Department of Homeland Security is compiling data on anti-ICE activists. Host Audie Cornish played a clip in which an ICE agent, in what she described as a “tossed off” remark, told a protester she was now considered a “domestic terrorist.” Cornish claimed that such language, once written into a report, “becomes a real problem for someone.”

Republican panelist Kristen Soltis Anderson urged viewers to “think about what would have happened during the Tea Party era, when the shoe’s on the other foot, about how upset conservatives would have been at the idea of the government tracking their speech in any kind of way. And so I always just think it’s useful to imagine, like, what if the parties were flipped here? And I think a lot of conservatives would be in, would be unbelievably outraged, and rightly so, if a Democratic administration was trying to track them.”

A manhunt is underway in Idaho for the dangerous individual who tried to blow up a building that houses Department of Homeland Security (DHS) offices in the city of Meridian, Wednesday.

During a press briefing Thursday, Meridian Police Chief Tracy Basterrechea said the suspect stole an ambulance from a bay at St. Luke’s West hospital and drove it through the parking lot to retrieve gas cans that were staged in nearby vegetation.

The alleged domestic terrorist then crashed the ambulance into the North Portico building, where the DHS offices are housed, Basterrechea said.

Following the anti-ICE disruption at City Hall on Wednesday night, a Portland City Council member proposed allowing councilors to open carry firearms in the chambers. Loretta Smith, a Democrat, called the incident a “mini insurrection” and believes councilors need to take greater precautions to protect themselves from leftist agitators.

Smith, who represents District 1, drafted a city ordinance that would allow lawmakers to open carry while conducting official city business. Smith told OPB that she has never carried a firearm before, but now feels the need to do so. “It’s a defensive mechanism,” she said. “If people know that you’re a serious person and you’re going to protect yourself, they’re not going to be as quick to mess with you.”

Drones are increasingly violating American airspace. We know that tens of thousands of drone sightings on our southern border are connected with the Mexican drug and human trafficking cartels. But dozens of other drone sightings at sensitive military installations suggest hostile nation-state actors, most likely China.

As drone operations in Russia’s war on Ukraine show, the threat is no longer hypothetical — it is active and escalating. Unfortunately, a dangerous combination of bureaucratic inertia and misplaced priorities has left our borders and military installations vulnerable.

Washington Dems Plug Socialist Debt Hole with Police, Firefighters’ Pensions

pgnewser February 19, 2026 1

Democrat “lawmakers” in the insurrectionist state of Washington passed legislation that essentially raids the pensions of police and firefighters to the tune of $4 billion. They hope to use the stolen funds to plug a deficit in their budget caused by their own bloated socialist programs.

One recipient of that stolen money will be the “Climate Commitment Account,” which is a de facto DNC-CCP political slush fund that helps arm its street fighters we see across America on a regular basis, terrorizing cities and burning down businesses. They will receive over half a billion dollars, or 12.5% of the Police and Firefighters pension fund.

Washington Democrats Raid Police & Firefighter Pensions $4 Billion Pension Surplus to Fund Their Spending Spree, ALL REPUBLICANS VOTED NO –  gellerreport.com

Washington State House Democrats have crossed a dangerous line. Billions stripped from those who serve — millions redirected to political pet projects.

In a brazen vote, they moved to siphon $4 billion out of pension funds meant for law enforcement officers and firefighters — the very people who risk their lives daily — to plug a deficit of their own making.

Every single Republican in the state House voted no.

But Democrats didn’t stop there. While draining retirement security from cops and first responders, they’re planning to funnel $569 million into the so-called Climate Commitment Account — a pet political project wrapped in green rhetoric.

Mamdani’s Hold on NY Highlights DNC Islam in Practice

If you want to get a sense of what DNC Islam rule is like, New York’s new Mayor, DNC Islamist Zohran Mamdani, is putting to flesh those policies. Already, Israeli companies are being forced out, the Muslim call to prayer is polluting New York airspace, and Mamdani is threatening to raise property taxes by 9.5% if New York state doesn’t give Mamdani the bloated budget he wants (a budget that is almost as much as the entire state of Florida).

Now, Mamdani is also bringing in violent radical Islamists into his government which includes a former CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) staffer. CAIR is considered a terrorist organization by Americans, though our own government so far has failed to recognize this reality. The operative, Faizi Ali, will now be New York City’s chief immigration officer. Expect an army of violent Islamist radicals to be imported to their new American caliphate HQ, New York City, a fallen city.

Puerto Rico’s Unborn Child Law Takes Effect

pgnewser February 19, 2026 0

Puerto Rican Governor Jenniffer Gonzalez signed an amendment to Senate Bill 823 that recognizes an unborn child as being a human being. The bill is seen as an assault on the abortion industry, which it thankfully is. The Governor declared an unborn child is legally a person, and now, that declaration is codified into Puerto Rican law.

She said at the signing that the law “aims to maintain consistency between civil and criminal provisions by recognizing the unborn child as a human being.” Puerto Rico joins 38 states that recognize the unborn as a person and 27 states that provide protection of the unborn throughout the prenatal period of human development.

Why Puerto Rico’s Double Homicide Law Involving Pregnant Mothers Terrifies the Abortion Industry – standingforfreedom.com

Puerto Rico just passed a law recognizing unborn babies as human beings under the penal code, impacting cases that involve the murder of pregnant women and revealing society’s contradictions regarding life and abortion.

On Thursday, Puerto Rico Gov. Jenniffer González signed into law a measure that recognizes unborn babies as human beings under the territory’s penal code. The amendment to Senate Bill 923 alters the legal definition of murder to include the killing of a fetus, establishing consistency between Puerto Rico’s civil and criminal provisions.

The legislation was named after Keishla Rodríguez, a pregnant woman murdered in April 2021, whose killer — former boxer Félix Verdejo — received two life sentences for the double homicide.

NYU Hospital Drops Trans Surgeries for Kids

Another hospital is being forced to stop its Moloch practice of sacrificing children to the transgendered god. NYU Langone Health has announced it is cancelling its transgender treatment program for kids out of fear of losing federal funding.

The hospital appeared to be clueless to the violent pedophilic crimes it has committed, confessing it ended the program due to the “current regulatory environment,” and not because mutilating children to satisfy your transgender ideology is pure evil, as normal human beings can clearly see and understand.

It stated, “Given the recent departure of our medical director, coupled with the current regulatory environment, we made the difficult decision to discontinue our Transgender Youth Health Program. We are committed to helping patients in our care manage this change. This does not impact our pediatric mental health care programs, which will continue.”

Last week, the Republican-controlled House passed the SAVE (The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility) America Act on a mostly party-line vote. Texas’ politically vulnerable Rep. Henry Cuellar was the lone Democrat voting for the measure.

“Eric Swalwell’s erotic poetry,” however, is unfortunately a very real thing.
