The Democrats Number One Agenda: Fund Abortion

The murder of unborn babies is the Democrats’ top agenda! By their fruits you shall know them. The facts speak for themselves (see below). Make no mistake, this is ungodly, Satanic to its core and pure evil!

Democrats take control of House, immediately introduce bill to fund abortions worldwide

The federal government has been partially shut down since Trump, facing pressure from conservatives, decided at the last minute in December to reject a government funding bill that didn’t include $5 billion to begin constructing the southern border wall he campaigned on. While the media is filled with distress over the shutdown and uncertainty over whether Democrats or Republicans will blink first, most of the government was already funded and remains in operation.

Following her return to the office of House Speaker Thursday, Democrat leader Nancy Pelosi announced that her party would be “offering the Senate Republican Appropriations [Committee] legislation to reopen the government later today,” Fox News reports. The proposal would fund the Department of Homeland Security until February 8 and other federal departments until the end of September.

The bill has been a political non-starter because it lacks wall funding, however, and pro-lifers are warning that it would also repeal the Mexico City Policy (now called Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance) that Trump reinstated shortly after taking office and later expanded. That would make foreign entities that commit or promote abortions once again eligible for foreign aid.

The plan would also give $37.5 million to the United Nations Population Fund, from which Trump withdrew in 2017 over its participation in China’s forced abortion regime.

“This move shows the House Democrats are so radically pro-abortion that they are more concerned with pushing their abortion agenda on the American people than finding common ground to end the government shutdown,” Live Action president Lila Rose responded. While Trump and Senate Republicans “failed last session to pass a law preventing the American taxpayer from funding Planned Parenthood,” they “now have a duty to stand firm and block such outrageous attempts to have the American taxpayer fund and promote abortion programs across the globe.”

“News that abortion is the leading cause of death worldwide is a tragedy of international proportions, but asking U.S. taxpayers to pay for it is an offensive misuse of scarce resources,” Students for Life of America president Kristan Hawkins said. “Taxpayers have had enough of the abortion industry’s vision of abortion as the United States’ number one export. As a bipartisan matter, we should help women and children at home and abroad, without making ending life the goal of U.S. policy.”

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has already rejected the proposal as a “political sideshow,” declaring that the Senate “will not waste its time considering a Democratic bill which cannot pass this chamber and which the president will not sign.”

How the shutdown standoff will end remains unclear. Conservative pundit Ann Coulter, who was one of Trump’s earliest and most passionate supporters, predicted this week the president “will fold in the end,” though others argue he can satisfy supporters by funding the wall through other revenue sources not reliant on Congress.

In July 2017, Rep. Steve King (R-IA) suggested the federal funding that goes to Planned Parenthood be directed to the border wall instead.

As for abortion policy under the new Congress, pro-lifers are largely resigned to two more years without direct legislation to defund Planned Parenthood or otherwise restrict abortion, though they remain optimistic that Trump will continue to find incremental steps for life via executive action, and hope Republicans’ expanded Senate majority will enable the confirmation of judges with clear pro-life credentials.

Democrat opposition to Pelosi’s re-election as speaker falls flat

Pelosi is a self-declared “Catholic” with a 100 percent pro-abortion voting record, who has said that promoting “diversity” among Capitol Hill staff will be one of her priorities in the new Congress. On multiple occasions, however, she has also displayed the political acumen to deemphasize left-wing causes like abortion for the sake of winning over Americans on economic or healthcare grounds.

After the November midterms, the New York Times revealed that Pelosi helped Democrats return to power in part by counseling “restraint” against fighting over things like Planned Parenthood in favor of a focused message on more mainstream concerns. “Those things are in our DNA, but they are not in our talking points,” she reportedly said on multiple occasions.

In April, she defended her support of “pro-life” Democrats like Illinois Rep. Dan Lipinski on the grounds that his election would count toward a “pro-choice gavel when we win the Congress,” and during the campaign downplayed Democrat calls to impeach President Donald Trump. Conservatives suspect such assurances were merely meant to hide Democrats’ true intentions so as not to provoke GOP voter turnout.

The Hill reports that 15 House Democrats, most of whom were just elected, opposed Pelosi’s re-election as speaker, though they didn’t agree on a single alternative and their ranks were far short of the “dozens” who had previously distanced themselves from her.

“On day one of the new Congress, Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats are already trying to foist a radical pro-abortion agenda on the nation,” Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser said. “The House’s spending bill would…[make] taxpayers complicit in the exportation of abortion and destruction of countless unborn children around the world. This is unconscionable and we oppose the bill in the strongest terms.”

House Democrats seek to restore abortion group funding on first day of new Congress

The newly sworn-in Democrat-led House of Representatives plans to vote Thursday on a spending bill to end the federal government shutdown that includes a provision to provide funding to Planned Parenthood and other abortion groups.

Pro-life groups and prominent conservatives are speaking out against Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats for slipping language into the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2019 that would among other things restore federal funding to overseas organizations that provide and promote abortion.

Such funding was stripped from organizations like International Planned Parenthood by one of President Donald Trump’s first acts as president when he expanded what was known as the Mexico City Policy preventing foreign aid dollars from being used to fund organizations that perform abortions overseas.

Trump’s policy is called Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance and forces NGOs to agree as a condition of receiving federal funding that they will not “perform or actively promote abortion as a method of family planning.”

Abortion advocates lambasted the move and labeled it a “global gag rule.” But on the first day of the new Congress, the Pelosi-led House are trying to repeal that provision.

According to the Washington Examiner, the spending bill will also increase funding by $5 million for the United Nations Population Fund, which has been criticized by pro-life organizations and the Trump State Department who say that the entity participates in a program of “coercive abortion or involuntary sterilization.”

“On day one of the new Congress, Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats are already trying to foist a radical pro-abortion agenda on the nation,” Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the national pro-life grassroots organization Susan B. Anthony List said in a statement. “A strong majority of Americans oppose taxpayer funding of abortion. Acting on the clearly expressed will of the American people, President Trump and his administration have taken a bold stand for life by stopping billions of dollars in foreign aid from being used to push abortion overseas.”

Dannenfelser said that the House spending bill would again make “taxpayers complicit in the exportation of abortion and destruction of countless unborn children around the world.”

“This is unconscionable and we oppose the bill in the strongest terms,” she said.

Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, a former presidential candidate, slammed the House bill in a statement posted to his website. He assured that such a bill has “no chance” of actually becoming law.

“Apparently, Democrats in their first day as the House majority intend on pushing divisive, pro-abortion policies that would allow taxpayer dollars to flow to international organizations that promote and perform abortions,” Rubio stressed.  “This is nothing more than far-left wing theater as these policies have no chance of passing the Senate or being signed by the President.”

Rubio vowed to ensure that the bill is defeated.

Pro-lifers and conservatives were elated when Trump reinstated the Mexico City Policy in 2017 and many viewed it as a fulfillment of part of his campaign promise to advance pro-life policies.

According to the Christian conservative advocacy group Family Research Council, the House will vote on two spending bills Thursday. The second is a short-term continuing resolution to keep the government running until Feb. 8.

As the federal government has been in a partial shut down for 12 days over Trump’s desire to build a border wall, the House spending bill does not include funding for the wall.

Although the Democrats have the votes to pass the legislation, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has vowed to block the bill in the Senate.

“The legislation that House Democrats are reportedly planning to introduce would not be a serious contribution to these negotiations. It isn’t comprehensive. It ignores the needs of border security,” McConnell said in a statement.  “It’s exactly the kind of proposal you’d expect if the incoming House Democrats were choosing to stage a political sideshow rather than do the hard work of helping to govern the country. A total non-starter.”

“Will these new Democrats come to Washington ready to roll up their sleeves, work together, and make laws?” McConnell asked.  “Or are they going to waste time on partisan show votes that will do nothing to move the country forward? That’s the question: Political performance art or responsible governance? We’ll get an early signal in the next few days.”

  1. So i guess you are implying that one cannot be a “Democrat” and a Christian at the same time? That the two are diametrically opposed? Is the Kingdom of Heaven that simple? “My Kingdom is not of this World” … Should FreeWill be diminished? And should Salvation be put into that kind of container? Should not the tares and the wheat be allowed to grow together for this time until the End of Days be accomplished and fulfilled?

    • How bizarre and pathetic it is when a preacher of righteousness (like Noah, the biblical prophets, Yeshua and the apostles) calls evil evil and calls sinners to repentance and “Christians” attack instead of defend you for this. No wonder our country is in such bad shape morally and spiritually!

      Moreover, with all due respect Don, what you’ve written is an example of putting words in a person’s mouth and making assumptions. I never said that being a Democrat and being a Christian is mutually exclusive, nor did I imply this. However, if a particular political party stands for something that is as vile and unbiblical as abortion, it certainly would behoove a person to question whether belonging to that party was a righteous and godly thing to do or not.

      I will not back off from asking the hard questions and calling Bible believers to account for their actions. It is largely because Christians are not addressing these important issues in light of clear biblical truth why the US is the post-Christian mess that it’s in and sliding quickly into a dark spiritual black hole.

    • Good question!

      Instead of attacking me for calling the Democratic leaders to account for their wickedness, people should be asking the same question you’ve just asked. It just shows you how backslid and out of tune with the Word of Elohim and how Scripturally illiterate so many “Christians” really are!

      “And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, ‘These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.” (Rev 3:14–19)

  2. I have often thought to do a comparison study between snow white and the 7 dwarfs and the 7 churches of Revelation. any thoughts, Natan?

      • Ephesus, needed to return to their first love=grumpy?
        Sardis= “dead” =sleepy?
        Laodicea=lukewarm==dopey?
        Philadelphia=faithful=happy?
        Haven’t figured out the other three yet, just thinkin (maybe too much)

  3. Hello again Natan…a reliable genuine believer from Idaho sent me this video link re America ..Abortion…repercussions etc & many other important things that will happen..

    he is the author of several books search the scriptures for the detailed instructions there in dealing with Elohims instructions for his people in the End Times…A Remnant shall return..And The day of The Lord is at Hand…+ a few others….

    • I watched the video and approved its being posted on this blog, but I will comment on it.

      Even though the video correctly identifies the issues facing our society and world, it’s full of inaccurate hyperbole and fear porn and offers no hope for the viewer. Sad.

      At the same time, the video is from a website that I’ve followed for years that has a lot of good information especially related to health issues, but also puts out a lot of apocalyptic fear and conspiratorial scenarios (some of which seem logically reasonable and some of which are patently preposterous, in my opinion), often plays fast and loose with the facts, often paints with broad brushes and does a lot of adding two and two and getting five. (The left isn’t the only side guilty of these things; the right is too.) I’m not saying not to visit or follow this site. I’m saying, be aware of the things I’ve just mentioned, go in with a critical mind, and don’t believe everything you see, read or hear. This should be our approach to everything we encounter whether it’s coming from one side of the political, moral and religious spectrum or the other.

      Also, often these sites traffic in fear because fear sells. Nearly all advertising is based on fear. On the basis of fear, many advertisers sells their product in an effort to alleviate the fear they’ve just purposely induced in you. Similarly, this site has a lot of stuff to sell based on promoting fear.

      For example, ever notice how most of the folks promoting end of the world, post-apocalyptic scenarios also sell precious metals, survival gear, guns, and food for long term storage? Yeah. Fear sells!

      So beware. Get the info, separate the wheat from the chaff, don’t get sucked into the emotional drama coming out from either side of the political spectrum. Above all, keep your head on straight by keeping your focus perennially and unswervingly on Yeshua and let the truth of the Bible be your guiding light to follow through the spiritual black hole called this world. HalleluYah!

      • Thank you Natan..I do so appreciate your wisdom & insight …good advice & I do understand the point and direction you are coming from to find a balanced objective view of these end time
        issues ..I completely understand what u r saying.

        I would not have even seen the video had the link not been posted to me in an email..I would not have known it even existed..don’t normally look @ these links..they r not known to me as such…I think i would not look at them again..based on your wisdom..

        Shalom…& blessings from CC.
