Best Republicans and even some pro-life organizations praised the Republican National Committee’s launch as a unified message that will help former president Donald Trump win in November. Buried in the pregnancy portion of the 16- site record, nevertheless, is permission for the murder of millions of newborn babies via abortion and in vitro fertilization.
It’s no secret that the Trump campaign collaborated with the RNC to “gut” the group’s previous commitments to carry the pregnancy business account and preserve life wherever possible. Sure enough, when the GOP made its 2024 vow public on Monday, its commitment to “proudly have for families and existence” fell short of fulfilling the tried and tested protections for newborn babies.
The platform committee in Milwaukee may review the weak commitment next week, but it’s doubtful that many will shift.
The RNC framed the 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson selection as affirming that “power has been given to the states and to a vote of the people,” to satisfy demands that abortion be been done by Republicans to be a hands-off,” state issue.” Unfortunately, the solution uses the 14th Amendment, which gives states the right to decide whether infants live or die, as justification for denying the government existence, liberty, or property without due process.
The GOP’s deliberate failure to carry over its 2016 commitment to” support a mortal existence amendment to the Constitution and policy making clear that the Fourteenth Amendment’s protections apply to children before birth” would allow states governed by extremism to remain executing 99 percent of newborn babies currently murdered by abortion.
Even though the RNC resolution technically accuses opponents of “late-term abortion,” it does nothing about supporting a federal law that would at least uphold the moral and constitutional obligation to protect life and most likely upholds the moral and constitutional duty to protect life.
Additionally, the resolution makes dozens more states vulnerable to deceptive abortion ballot measures that, if passed, would allow for any reason to guarantee birth control in even the most red states.
The RNC affirmed unwavering support for a practice that routinely discards and abandons millions of little lives in addition to granting states a free pass on abortion.  ,
Hundreds of thousands , of IVF cycles yield big batches of embryos every year. Yet,  , only an estimated 7 percent , of these test tube babies survive the treacherous journey from petri dish to freezer to womb. The remaining embryos are discarded or abandoned in freezers after undergoing eugenics- esque genetic , grading.
Supporting policies that could easily be construed as offering a broad range of reproductive tech available to anyone and everyone,  , including accused pedophiles, who want to create , potentially motherless and fatherless , children by whatever means necessary, is simply not pro- life.
Instead of implementing the party’s “life begins at conception” policy, which it claimed back in 2016 by calling for the addition of a human life amendment to the Constitution, the GOP has effectively rubber-stamp-stamped states by adding abortion through all nine months of pregnancy and possibly even a “right” to reproductive technology to their constitutions.
The RNC’s new platform for IVF and abortion has n’t just stiffened the pro-life voters who helped elect Trump and so many other Republicans to office. It has effectively ensured that Republicans, not unlike Democrats, will go against voters ‘ wishes on abortion.
