” There is no position in this land where it is legal to kill a child after it’s born”, said ABC debate moderator Linsey Davis, as she smugly “fact-checked” the Republican nomination. ” Madam vice chairman, I want to get your response to President Trump”.

” Well, as I said, you’re going to notice a bunch of sits”, joyfully agreed Kamala Harris. Finally she began to tell a lot of rests.
But in this transfer, the second lie was told by ABC’s Linsey Davis. And either surprisingly or ironically, one of the places where babies may lawfully be killed post-birth is in the state of Minnesota— where her running mate, Tim Walz, is now governor.
At least eight children who survived abortions and were thus born alive were afterwards killed or left to die, according to a report from The Daily Signal, which looked at several years of data from the Minnesota Department of Health.  ,
In fact, during the narrow period of January 1, 2021, through December 21, 2021 ( one year ), five babies were born post-abortion activity. Of those five babies:
No single tried to save the second child, who was reportedly born with “fetal inconsistencies” and died shortly thereafter.
The second and third babies were given unspecified” comfort care measures” on their first ( and last ) birthdays. Neither girl survived.
The fourth and fifth babies were deemed “previable”, which is defined as the level of fetal age when there’s a much lower incidence of survival outside of the uterus, but thanks to medical advances, the range of previability is shifting, it’s generally considered a “gray zone” for social decision-making. Despite, no efforts were made to protect either girl.  ,
The Daily Signal also uncovered Minnesota’s records from January 1, 2019, through December 31, 2019 ( one year ): Three babies were born alive after an attempted abortion, and three times these children were allowed to die.

One suffered from “fetal anomalies”, but had “residual respiratory activity” —  , medical jargon for a beating heart —  , for two good minutes. Alas, the physicians opted to abandon any attempt to save the mother’s life: According to the information,” the child did not survive”.
Of the last two, one girl passed away while being given” comfort treatment steps”. The other was deemed previable, no attempt was made to support the child.
It’s questionable if 2019 and 2021 are the only two times where Minnesota’s health information is also publicly accessible.
Nevertheless, the American people will always hear about this again thanks to the tireless efforts of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Outlets like The Daily Signal ( and their reporter, Mary Margaret Olohan, who broke this story ) wo n’t be writing about botched abortions or government-protected infanticide anymore…
…because, in 2023, Governor Tim Walz repealed the republican estimate that kept track of the number of born-alive children and required specialists to defend an child’s “life and health”.
Problem solved!
Minnesota’s pregnancy laws were once strict. Finally, Governor Walz passed a new law that makes abortion legal throughout the ninth quarter in 2023. ( Or, apparently, even after. )
However, unless I’ve missed a letter, Minnesota is a state in the United States of America. So why did Linsey Davis decide to join the national discussion, proper and scold one of the candidates, and sighed declare that” no position in this region is where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born”?

It’s not just Minnesota either: According to Axios, six states— plus Washington, D. C. — have completely unrestricted abortion. No state in this country is the answer, regardless of how you look at it, according to other organizations.
Either Linsey Davis or ABC News deliberately defrauded the American people by trying to trick them into voting for their preferred candidate, or they defrauded of an astonishing level of incompetence and flubbed a crucial fact during a presidential debate.
If the former is true, then they’re airheads who deserve to be fired. But if the latter is true, then they’ve become the literal embodiment of Fake News and misinformation. This is approaching Goebbels-level propaganda.  ,
Telling lies to conceal the deaths of innocent babies is a little difficult to defend. ABC, we await your response.
