| Abortion Pill Expansion Put 'Women's Health and Safety Last': Researcher |
| by Ben Johnson |
| Nearly two out of three abortions carried out in the United States last year took place via abortion pills - a method post-abortive mothers have said inflicted "the worst physical pain of my life" and forced them to "experience the trauma again every time I used the bathroom." The abortion pills have produced so many fetal deaths and seriously harmful side effects for women that one researcher told The Washington Stand the growing number of chemical abortions represents "a tragedy." |

| Youngkin Feels the Heat over Same-Sex Marriage Betrayal |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| More than a week after Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin's (R) surprise signature on a controversial same-sex marriage bill, people everywhere are still trying to make sense of the decision. No one is quite sure what the openly religious businessman was trying to achieve, since the law has no practical effect except outraging the governor's conservative base. And while there's never a good time to insult your staunchest supporters, the move seemed especially tone deaf in a country moving away from the extremism he endorsed. |

| 'Standards of Care' for Transing Minors Disappear from WPATH Website |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| A guidance document recommending gender transition procedures for minors disappeared on Tuesday from the website of the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), after leaked files revealed the activist organization's awareness of the dangerous and experimental nature of these procedures. The web link for the 8th edition of WPATH's transgender "Standards of Care" (SOC) remained vacant on Wednesday, generating a "Page Not Found" error message, although the 7th edition, released in 2011, was accessible. |

| Biden's Blarney: The Irreconcilability of the President's Policies and His Faith |
| by S.A. McCarthy |
| On St. Patrick's Day, much of the Western world pretends to be Irish - green t-shirts and shamrock socks, green beer and shepherd's pie, often topped off with bagpipes and marching bands in the local parade. On this traditionally Catholic feast day, honoring the Apostle of Ireland and first bishop of Armagh, very few pretend to be Catholic, but that's exactly what President Joe Biden did. |

| Democrats Introduce Bill 'Celebrating' Abortionists |
| by Ben Johnson |
| No longer content with rhetorically opposing pro-life laws, Democrats have introduced a bill in Congress to "celebrate" the work of abortionists, with one member of the Squad insisting, "I will never stop fighting to protect" those who take the lives of unborn children. Senator Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) introduced a measure for Congress to recognize each March 10 as "Abortion Provider Appreciation Day" in order "to celebrate the courage, compassion, and high-quality care that abortion providers and staff offer to patients and their families across the United States." |

| Poll Finds Religion's Influence Declining: 'Great Opportunity for Christians' to Be Salt and Light |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| A recent Pew Research Center poll revealed that "8 in 10 Americans say religion is losing influence in public life." On its own, this information isn't startling. Biological sex, human dignity, and science are within the list of topics becoming increasingly subjective. Truth, which is what religion is supposed to convey, seems to carry little value to many in this current climate, and biblical mandates are violated continuously. So, when "80% of U.S. adults say religion's role in American life is shrinking," the highest percentage Pew has recorded, it makes some sense. But what's surprising is that a majority of people are unhappy about it. |
