Harris Rejects Religious Exemptions for Abortion

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 10/23/2024 2:12:43 PM

Vice President Kamala Harris said Tuesday night she would reject religious exemptions for abortion as president, effectively forcing health-care providers to perform the medical procedure in violation of their moral conscience. The Democratic presidential nominee has been adamant about passing a bill that would codify Roe v. Wade into law, despite the Supreme Court overturning that decision in 2022. In an interview with NBC News anchor Hallie Jackson, Harris indicated she would refuse to compromise with Republican lawmakers on the abortion legislation. “I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom

“I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body,” Harris said I thought freedom of worship was THE fundamental freedom the country was founded on. Democrats are only concerned with power over the people-the party of joy & inclusivity my @ss.

The question here is NOT what the woman who wants to do with her body. It's what the 'freaking' (grow up, Lucianne) DOCTOR wants to do with THEIR body! There are THREE bodies involved in an abortion - the woman desiring one, the doctor performing one and the baby dying as the result of one. The doctor has a body TOO - GD it.

All of us religious folk of any denomination need vote Trump unless we agree that the government can rule us in every facet of life and death. This was an easy out for her and would have conned many folk in and vote against Trump because he is….you name it…but her pandering to the extreme LEFT wouldn’t allow such….

Fundamental freedom to force physicians, who still take an oath to do no harm, to kill babies. If I hadn’t retired from practice at age 80, this evil regulation, if somehow approved, would cause it.

FTA: “I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body,” So Kam, if this is what you believe to be true concerning abortion, then that means we also have fundamental freedom to make our own decisions about vaccines/boosters we may or may not want to take.

Kamala seems to be prioritizing one fundamental freedom (abortion) above all other freedoms. Harris is totally disregarding the freedom of religion that we have in this country. Apparently, the "fundamental freedom" to kill an unborn child overrides a person's religious and/or personal disgust and disapproval of doing so. It seems to be a badge of honor for liberal women.

Once again. There is no "right" to abortion. Once again. There are two lives in a pregnancy, not just one. Once again. The Supreme Court has already ruled that the government does not have the right to approve or disapprove of abortion. Try to keep up, Kamala.

#5 makes an excellent point. Freedom of religion existed long before abortion became popular. Just in the last couple of weeks Harris has made her hostility toward religion well known. She doesn’t have the B’s to go after Muslims or Jews but it’s open season on Christianity. It’s the only policy she’s been really clear about.

Former President Donald Trump told his audience at a Turning Point Action rally in Las Vegas, Nevada, Thursday night that he is leading Vice President Kamala Harris “by so much” that he is expanding the electoral battleground. Trump shared that Harris is on a downward slide that was even worse than President Joe Biden’s, which forced him out of the race so she could ascend to the top of the ticket. “Now she’s imploding worse than him. She’s actually imploding, if you take a look, because look, I’m not supposed to say it, but we are leading by so much,” Trump said to thunderous applause. “We’re leading by a lot

The more you get to know Kamala Harris ... Two big media polls dropped today, and both of them look like bad news for Democrats -- especially Harris. Despite the shrieking hysteria coming from the campaign and the media (but I repeat myself!) about how dangerous Donald Trump is, voters like Trump more ... and Kamala less. Let's start with the Wall Street Journal poll, where Trump has "opened a narrow lead" among registered voters, who usually lean a bit more Democrat.

The Biden administration has considered creating a new “information czar” for national security to combat foreign disinformation operations about elections and other issues, according to White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan. Asked about creating such a post on the National Security Council on Thursday, Mr. Sullivan said the idea has been a topic of debate throughout the intelligence and defense agencies. Mr. Sullivan gave an audience at the National Defense University a rare glimpse inside the hidden debate about how to police foreign speech that the U.S. government finds abhorrent. “I think on the ’czar’ [proposal], that’s something we’ve been grappling with and thinking about across the national security enterprise,”

Don't take my word for it, here's what the Wall Street Journal reported yesterday about how markets seem to be preparing for a Trump win. Some large hedge funds and money managers, sensing a potential shift in momentum, are getting behind trades that could pay out if Donald Trump beats Kamala Harris in the presidential election. While most polling still shows a tight race, that shift has rippled across markets in recent weeks, boosting assets seen as likely to benefit from a Republican victory. For instance, private-prison operator GEO Group is up 21% in October, on pace for its best month since 2022, while bitcoin miner Riot Platforms has risen 34%.

Kamala Harris' Labour Party advisor's #1 priority is killing Twitter. We can't let the proles speak. Only the vanguard of the proletariat and their Pravda media propagandists can be allowed to have a say, lest the dirty dumb demos quit doing what they are told. Matt Taibbi and Paul Thacker have the scoop, and it is just as scary as you think. The campaign to destroy free speech is in full swing, and they are executing the plan. I have written a lot about censorship because, in the long run, it may present the greatest threat to our freedom. If we have free speech, we can at least fight back.

(And, she did find the opportunity to bring up that talking point - video at the bottom of this story.)

Maricopa County officials are asking people for “patience” as they tally up the final votes, which they say could take between 10 and 14 days. Deputy Elections Director Jennifer Liewer blames longer-than-usual ballots and the high interest in the 2024 election.
