If you are a person who considers herself pro-choice because she knows a woman in a difficult situation, you are in the majority of those who describe themselves as pro-choice. I suspect we could find a lot of common ground in helping women and families. You’d be heartened by touring the many women’s pregnancy resource centers around the country. I would think we have more in common than you would with Gavin Newsom or Kathy Hochul or a lot of the other abortion enthusiasts we are hearing from in the wake of the Supreme Court leak in the Mississippi abortion case.
California governor Newsom and New York Governor Hochul are in a gruesome competition to make their respective states the abortion capital of the country. (New York is currently in the lead.)
In a tweet, Newsom erases pro-life women and seems to unintentionally acknowledge the demonic nature of abortion:
Our daughters, sisters, mothers, and grandmothers will not be silenced.
The world is about to hear their fury.
California will not sit back. We are going to fight like hell. https://t.co/EhwSWXiZhx

For not the first time, Hochul invoked the Statue of Liberty as a symbol of her goal to make New York an abortion destination:
New York will always be a place where abortion rights are protected.
Just as the Statue of Liberty lifts her lamp tall in our harbor, New York will never stop fighting for what’s right — unafraid and undeterred.

And then, to again confirm the hellishness of abortion, she insists on her newly born granddaughter’s right to kill her children.
I refuse to let my new granddaughter have to fight for the rights that generations have fought for & won, rights that she should be guaranteed.
For anyone who needs access to care, our state will welcome you with open arms. Abortion will always be safe & accessible in New York.

That’s why this debate is so insane. Because we are at war with science, law, history, family, the innocent, the human person, and, yes, women with legal abortion. If Roe is overturned, there will still be abortion. But we will have more of a fighting chance of protecting women and children in the states.
