Comedy is incompatible with leftism. For evidence of this maxim, one need look no further than the most recent iteration of the White House Correspondents' dinner.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has said, while he respects those who have "absolute moral clarity" on the issue, he believes the decision to abort a child in the eighth month of pregnancy is morally "nuanced and complex."
When people ask Mike Johnson (R-La.) what it's like to be speaker, he puts it this way, "I feel like a triage nurse on the battlefield. They wheel a bloody body in and yell, 'Stop the bleeding!' And I will, and then turn around and there's another bloody body." Now imagine a patient who doesn't appreciate the work the nurse is trying to do, and you have a pretty good picture of some House Republicans too.
The Biden administration has asked the Supreme Court to overturn a state pro-life protection by arguing that a federal law designed to protect the "unborn child" requires doctors to carry out abortions. In arguments before the Supreme Court, the administration's top legal advocate asked justices to strike down an Idaho law protecting most children from abortion on the grounds that it conflicts with the Emergency Medical Treatment & Labor Act (EMTALA).
Illegal campus occupations have entered their second week while hapless administrators at supposedly elite universities squirm like four-year-olds trying to gain control of a runaway tractor. The protests "don't appear to be dying down at all," Family Research Council Action President Jody Hice noted on "Washington Watch" Friday. As finals and then elections loom, "many people are asking and wondering if the violence is going to spill over into the summer months."
As the Biden campaign continues to push abortion as its primary focus ahead of the November elections, the administration made yet another move to ensure that abortion remains front and center by moving to insert the issue into the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act earlier this month - a move that earned a strong rebuke and lawsuit from a group of 17 Republican state attorneys general.
