A bill passed in the Kansas Senate Thursday that would forbid the use of telemedicine to prescribe the abortion pill. The vote on Senate Bill 5, which “would prohibit the prescribing of drugs intended to cause an abortion” via telemedicine passed with a supermajority—27-12. “The bill also restricts the governor’s power to alter such laws during a state of emergency,” Rebekah Chung of KSNY reported. The bill now moves to the Kansas House of Representatives. Click for Full Text!

Just last year the Supreme Court overturned the faulty Roe v. Wade abortion decision from 1973 and said, since the Constitution does not contain that "right," voters in the states could regulate it. Now another stunning decision has been released. Click for Full Text!

Pro-life Delegates Prevent Radical Right to Abortion Amendment from Passage in Virginia House of Delegates

After a week of debate on the house floor devoted to changing to the rules of the House of Delegates in Virginia, an effort led by pro-abortion Delegates to force a vote on the previously defeated “Right to Abortion” Amendment, has been defeated. Pro-abortion extremists in the House used the week of floor speeches to spread more manipulative and dramatic scare tactics to make their case for enshrining Roe v. Wade in Virginia’s Constitution. This amendment would allow abortion through all nine months of pregnancy, require tax funding of abortion, and prevent any reasonable protective pro-life laws in the future. Click for Full Text!

New Book Describes Crazy Leftist Uprising at NYT After Cotton Op-ed

A promo line for media critic Steve Krakauer’s Uncovered: How the Media Got Cozy With Power, Abandoned Its Principles, and Lost the People says, “The fourth estate is supposed to be a conduit to the people and a check on power. Instead, we have a bunch of geographically isolated, introspection-free, cozy-with-power, egomaniacal journalists thirsty for elite approval.” We’ve known that for some time. But Krakauer, a report on the newly published book says, proves it in spades by disclosing the mass hysteria inside The New York Times after it published Senator Tom Cotton’s op-ed Send In the Troops. Cotton, a Republican from Arkansas, argued that the Floyd Hoax Riots ...
'America Has Lost the War on Drugs,' The New York Times Says, but Should Keep Fighting It Anyway

In 2014, more than a century after The New York Times began warning readers about the insanity-inducing, violence-provoking properties of "a harmless-looking plant" known as "marihuana," the paper published an editorial endorsing legalization of a drug it had once blamed for causing madness, mayhem, and murder. That reversal happened 18 years after California became the first state to legalize medical use of cannabis, two years after Colorado and Washington became the first states to legalize recreational use, and a year after Gallup reported that most Americans already favored repealing pot prohibition. The Gray Lady's cannabis conversion followed decades of ...
My Daughter's School District Warns That Nicotine Vapers Could Be Unknowingly Inhaling Fentanyl

This week I received a "Drug Awareness and Prevention Alert" from my daughter's school district. As is typical of these communications, the message from the Plano, Texas, Independent School District (ISD) mixes sensible advice with alarmist rhetoric and misinformation. That is a risky combination, because skeptical students and parents who recognize the anti-drug nonsense may be inclined to dismiss all of the warnings, including those that have a basis in fact. The alert mentions "fake pills laced with fentanyl," which is a real thing, then adds that fentanyl "can be disguised as candy in order to lure younger kids," which is not a real thing. But this ...
FTC Investigating, but Not Thwarting, Amazon Acquisition of One Medical

Yesterday Amazon closed its $3.9 billion deal to acquire the parent company of concierge health care provider One Medical without being halted by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which failed to sue in time to block the deal. The agency says it will continue investigating the transaction. "The commission will continue to look at possible harms to competition created by this merger as well as possible harms to consumers that may result from Amazon's control and use of sensitive consumer health information held by One Medical," said FTC spokesman Douglas Farrar earlier this week.

Biden Renominates Gigi Sohn, Net Neutrality Advocate, to the FCC

President Joe Biden has renominated Gigi Sohn to fill the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) now-vacant fifth seat. This is the third time Sohn has been nominated. Should she gain the Senate's approval, she will break the agency's current 2–2 Democrat-Republican logjam and allow the agency to re-enact Obama-era net neutrality regulations, which are economically nonsensical and largely unnecessary. The FCC's 2015 regulations forbade internet service providers from blocking content or discriminatorily slowing specific content and banned the practice of paid prioritization—i.e., a company paying an internet service provider (ISP) to favor its content.

California should stop relying on taxation by citation
Post Date: 2023-02-24 05:01:17 by Charles_Byrd

Across the country, state and local governments use fines and fees as a source of revenue to fund public services. But reliance upon this taxation by citation is not only a threat to individual liberty, it can also undermine public safety and result in fiscal instability. A new Reason Foundation policy brief shows why using fines and fees to generate government revenue undermines justice and fiscal responsibility in California. Fines and fees are commonplace throughout the justice system. In many cases, fines are considered desirable because they are an intermediate form of punishment. Slapping someone with a fine is less severe than incarceration but is tough punishment for many low-level ...

North Carolina lawmakers ask court to allow them to join litigation to defend state restrictions on abortion pills

Faced with the certainty that pro-abortion Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein will not defend a North Carolina’s law requiring a woman to make an in-person visit to obtain mifepristone, the first of two drugs making up the chemical abortion technique, “Lawyers for Senate leader Phil Berger and House Speaker Tim Moore filed papers in federal court asking to enter the case as new defendants, saying someone must be in place to rigorously defend state abortion laws,” Gary D. Robertson reported for the Associated Press. Under North Carolina law, abortionists must provide mifepristone in person “at a particular type of facility after a 72-hour waiting period and, in some ...

After millions of dollars dumped into Nevada to elect pro-abortion legislators in the 2022 cycle, it is no surprise that the Democrat Senate Majority Leader Nicole Cannizzarro used her FIRST bill as a thank you to the abortion industry. On February 20, SB131 was heard in the Commerce and Labor Committee which is fitting as the bill hopes to bolster Nevada as an abortion tourism destination while disregarding the health and safety of women, children, and unborn babies.

Senator Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) urged the current regime to ignore an anticipated federal court opinion that would bar the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from distributing an abortion drug. Federal Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk is hearing a case in which plaintiffs claim the FDA wrongly approved the abortion drug mifepristone. Observers expect Kacsmaryk’s opinion to be handed down before a February 24 filing deadline. Click for Full Text!

On Tuesday, the GOP-controlled Senate in the state of Mississippi passed House Bill 1125, which will ban “gender reassignment” surgery and hormone replacement therapy for minors. The bill has completed its legislative journey, with the Mississippi House of Representatives having already passed the bill in January. Governor Tate Reeves, a Republican, has already vowed to sign the bill when it hits his desk. In 2021, Reeves signed a law prohibiting so- called transgender athletes from competing in girls’ sports in the Magnolia State. Click for Full Text!

Ballot Initiative to Enshrine Abortion Up until Birth Coming to Ohio

On Tuesday, February 21, the abortion lobby released their ballot initiative’s language to enshrine abortion into Ohio’s constitution. The language would allow for abortion with no restrictions and possibly remove all pro-life protections for the preborn currently enacted, including parental consent. In the language they announced, it states that it would permit abortion to be prohibited after fetal viability; however, it then states that fetal viability can only be determined on a case-by-case basis, allowing for abortion through all nine months.

Former “Transgender” Clinic Worker Blows Whistle: What’s Done to Kids Is “Morally and Medically Appalling”

Jamie Reed didn’t want to speak up. After all, she understood the possible career ramifications for exposing the malpractice at the pediatric “transgender” clinic for which she once worked. She also knew that what gave her revelations added credibility wouldn’t protect her. To wit: Reed describes herself as a “queer,” 42-year-old woman who’s “married” to a “transman” (a female masquerading as male). But she finally felt compelled to blow the whistle because her former employer’s medical practices are, as she puts it, “morally and medically appalling.” In fact, the doctors at the Washington University Transgender Center ...

Reason is going to court to try to pry free records about whether women who died in federal prison received adequate medical care.
