An attorney for the state argued that Congress “did not use clear rights-creating language in any qualified provider provision” in the Medicaid Act’s any-qualified-provider provision.

The Supreme Court heard arguments on Wednesday in a case out of South Carolina stemming from an executive order signed by Governor Henry McMaster directing the state’s Department of Health and Human Services to remove abortion clinics like Planned Parenthood from the state’s Medicaid provider list.

While federal law prohibits Medicaid funding from going toward paying for abortions, many Medicaid patients in the state seek out the clinic for care such as cancer screenings, pregnancy testing, and contraceptives, per the Associated Press. In South Carolina, there are just two Planned Parenthood clinics.

An attorney for the state argued that Congress “did not use clear rights-creating language in any qualified provider provision” in the Medicaid Act’s any-qualified-provider provision and that it did not use the word “right or its functional equivalent, nor does it use words with a deeply rooted rights-creating pedigree.”

Abortion horror stories reveal malpractice and the pain inflicted on mothers and unborn babies– www.lifesitenews.com

Excerpt:

Priscilla Dray, a 35-year-old mother of three, walked into the Pellegrin University Hospital in Bordeaux, France on July 22, 2011, to procure an abortion. Within the week, she developed a serious infection; within a month, she developed necrosis. Before the year was out, both of Dray’s legs, her left hand, and her right forearm were amputated.

This abortion nightmare is at the center of a case that unfolded in France last month, as the two doctors responsible for the abortion and her subsequent maiming faced charges of having caused Dray involuntary injuries “through clumsiness, imprudence, inattention, negligence, or failure, (which) voluntarily or involuntarily caused incapacity for more than three months.”

Dray alleges that she begged one doctor for antibiotics and that she was refused on July 23, the day after her baby was aborted. Another doctor allegedly delayed medical examinations despite what is described as “worrying blood tests.” Dray went to the emergency room but was sent home. By July 24, Dray says her legs felt like “pieces of wood,” and returned to the emergency room. She was given antibiotics after a five-hour wait.

“They didn’t believe me, I had to beg,” Dray told the judges at the Bordeaux Criminal Court. “They took me for a bourgeois who was putting on a show.” That night, Dray ended up in the resuscitation room, and days later intensive care; the infection progressed so swiftly that her limbs became gangrenous and were amputated on August 25, scarcely a month after the abortion. As Dray stated on the M6 programme Zone Interdite: “I trusted (them) and this is the state they put me in. I should have died.”

Pro-Abortion Man Who Tried to Assassinate Justice Brett Kavanaugh Will Plead Guilty– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

A California man accused of plotting to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2022 intends to plead guilty, his attorneys said Wednesday.

Nicholas John Roske, 28, of Simi Valley, California, was arrested in June 2022 near Kavanaugh’s Maryland home, armed with a handgun, a knife, and zip ties, according to federal authorities. Roske allegedly threatened to kill Kavanaugh because he was upset that the justice may overturn Roe and allow states to protect unborn babies from abortion

The arrest came shortly after the leak of a draft Supreme Court opinion indicating the court would overturn Roe v. Wade, which allowed abortions up to birth across America.

Seattle affirms ‘sanctuary city’ status for ‘2SLGBTQIA+ rights’ and abortion– www.lifesitenews.com

Excerpt:

(LifeSiteNews) — The city of Seattle officially believes that there should be no limits on the prescription of transgender drugs and surgeries to minors, according to recent legislation.

The state of Washington already allows for abortion through all nine months of pregnancy and opposes any limits on transgender drugs and surgeries for minors. The state allows abortion until “viability” but then leaves open the vague “life” or “health” exception as a reason to have an abortion at any time. The state also will take away kids from parents if they are not supportive of them getting permanently damaging drugs and surgeries to look like the opposite sex.

However, this is not enough for the Seattle mayor and city council.

A new resolution, signed Monday on the so-called “Transgender Day of Visibility,” reaffirms the city’s “sanctuary status” for those who identify as “2SLGBTQIA+.” The acronym stands for “Two-Spirit” – a made-up sexual orientation which proponents claim has roots in Native American history – as well as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning (or queer), intersex, asexual, and anything else.

According to the resolution, Seattle “unequivocally supports the rights of individuals to engage in free speech or expression supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ rights, embrace and express their own authentic gender and sexuality, and define their own gender and sex with or without regard to biological sex at birth.”

According to ShoutYourAbortion.com (yes, that is a real website), women who want children are the abnormal ones. For example, Syd, who identified herself as a convert to Catholicism, wrote, “Thanks to my abortion, I will have a future.” Another wrote, “Abortion gave me a chance to focus on my own life.” An anonymous college student stated, “My future was worth it, and I am more than just a vessel to produce new life.” She then compared her baby to a tumor standing between her and her career.

On Monday the Senate Education Committee passed a good bill to help educate public school students about unborn children.

S.B. 450 by Sen. Breanne Davis (R — Russellville) and Rep. Kendra Moore (R — Lincoln) makes it possible for public school students to see a recording of a high-definition ultrasound video as part of human fetal growth and development education courses.

The bill also contains provisions letting students learn important facts about how unborn children develop in the womb.

Ultrasound images and similar educational resources can help show students that unborn children are human beings.

Very few medical advancements have done more to change hearts and minds on abortion than ultrasound technology. In fact, research has shown that some women are less likely to have an abortion if they see an ultrasound image of their unborn child.

S.B. 450 is a good bill, and it now goes to the entire Arkansas Senate for consideration.

 

Abortion Activists Freak Out Because Gen Z is Becoming More Pro-Life– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

You have to put it altogether to appreciate why the pro-abortion website rewire news group would run a story under the stern headline “Anti-Abortion Advocacy Is Rising on College Campuses.”

We already know that as a generalization, Gen Z—18 to 29— is the most conservative age group in decades. We also know that pro-abortion Vice President Kamala Harris barely beat President Trump, 52% to 46% among Gen Z voters but that 57% of men under 30 voted for Mr. Trump.

Newsweek’s Adeola Adeosun reported

Recent AtlasIntel polling shows President Trump’s approval rating among 18–29-year-olds has climbed to 52.7 percent in February, marking a substantial improvement [23 percentage points] since his January inauguration.

This demographic transformation challenges long-held Democratic Party assumptions about younger generations forming an “ascendant majority” that would secure their electoral future.

The conservative trend among Gen Z voters—especially young men—appears to be solidifying during Trump’s second term, potentially reshaping American politics for years to come.

Planned Parenthood Oral Arguments Will Further Expose Abortion Giant’s Filth– thefederalist.com

Excerpt:

This Wednesday, the United States Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, a case that exposes how Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest provider of abortions, has become increasingly cavalier with taxpayer dollars. The court will look at how Medicaid funds are funneled toward promoting and performing abortions, all while putting the lives of vulnerable women at risk.

In 2016, Dr. Phillip Hawley, hospice physician and former assistant professor of clinical pediatrics at the University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine, wrote: “Reason alone tells us that human life is special and we have a duty to protect one another. And that duty is especially strong when dealing with those in a weakened and vulnerable state.”

But for Planned Parenthood, human life is not special. It is merely a commodity to be disposed of in order to make money — and lots of it.

Meanwhile, there is a growing amount of evidence showing how Planned Parenthood has used the massive government funding it receives to promote abortion and “gender transitions” while financially starving its “clinics” and making them unsafe for both the woman and her preborn child.

National Right to Life today released The Status of Abortion in the United States, 2025. The twelfth annual edition summarizes key legislative developments on the state and federal level since Dobbs, and analyzes the limited data on the annual number of abortions in the United States.

“Since the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, we have seen the status of abortion in the U.S. change dramatically,” said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. “Many states have enacted laws to protect unborn children and their mothers from the tragedy of abortion.”

Tobias continued, “Pro-life education and legislative efforts are making an impact on our culture and in the lives of women facing unexpected pregnancies. But there is still much to be done.”

State representatives in Minnesota, one of the bluest states in the union, have just encouraged more abortion by voting against key bills that would have protected unborn babies and helped keep pro-life alternatives available for women.

To understand the full impact of the failed legislation, Blaze News spoke with Jessica Chastek, a member of the board of Options for Women East, a licensed pro-life medical clinic in St. Paul that offers an array of health care services for men, women, and babies from pregnancy until three years after birth.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has announced the arrests of a woman and man for allegedly operating an illegal abortion network.

“Individuals killing unborn babies by performing illegal abortions in Texas will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, and I will not rest until justice is served,” Paxton said in a press release. “I will continue to fight to protect life and work to ensure that anyone guilty of violating our state’s pro-life laws is held accountable.”

On March 17 Paxton announced the arrest of 48-year-old Maria Margarita Rojas — known as “Dr. Maria” — for “providing illegal abortions and illegally operating a network of clinics” near northwest Houston. The next day, he announced the arrest of 29-year-old Jose Manuel Cendan Ley for “the unlawful performance of an abortion and the unlicensed practice of medicine.” Rojas also faces charges for “practicing medicine without a license.”
