In reality, if there were tests to tell if your kid would be gay, the majority of gay children would be born to Christians since apparently they’re the only ones who think it’s wrong to murder your kids.

*Announce to the entire planet you just did that bad thing.*

*Announce you are being victimized by the entire planet. Cry.*

Bill Maher: "I don’t have Trump Derangement Syndrome."

John Kennedy: "I know. But to some extent, Bill, you are yelling at the wind. Just like you are who you are, I have known president Trump for ten years. Like him or not , he exists loudly."

[Susie Wiles @SusieWiles47]

After an accomplishment filled week by President Trump, I have the pleasure of reading a piece of Friday fiction, courtesy of the Daily Mail.

To be crystal clear, I am not going anywhere. I am honored and proud to serve President Trump, proud of our team and remain fully committed to advancing his agenda on behalf of the American people.

Some in the media have spent a decade trying to manufacture drama around President Trump and people who work for him. They were wrong then, and they are wrong now.

See you Monday.

Union Leaders Convicted of Racketeering, Fraud, and Embezzlement of Union Dues

“The Boilermakers Union members were supposed to get representation out of their hard-earned money used to pay union dues,” said @AAGDuva. “What they got instead is their money wasted on lavish trips and dinners, and unearned vacation payouts for the union leadership. Union dues must be handled with care and used for the benefit of the dues paying members. Union leadership that steals from the American worker will face prosecution, conviction, and prison time.”

The picture below is the hotel in Paris, France, where the defendants held an executive council meeting for the Kansas-based Boilermaker Union.

Shouldn’t a murder suspect living in the home be enough to trigger a DSS visit?

[9mmSMG @9mmsmg]

The left is truly deranged because they call "retard" the "R word", but see nothing wrong with ripping a baby apart into pieces with forceps because they might have down syndrome or be disabled. They won't be their picture perfect accessory.

These are evil people.

[Anna Lulis @annamlulis]

Pro-life Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy credits her baby girl with Down syndrome, Valentina, for “perfecting their family.”

This child, with an extra chromosome, is valuable and worthy of life. ❤️

[Collin Rugg @CollinRugg]

The YouTuber and his wife, who aborted their baby because the child had Down syndrome, say they've seen "the darkest side of humanity" because of how people are reacting.

"We've seen the darkest side of humanity through this process."

The "darkest side of humanity" is killing an unborn child because the baby has Down syndrome.

Annelise Camp is scheduled to undergo brain death testing — over her family’s objections — today at 9AM CST.

“Because of the lack of high-quality evidence on the subject,” the American Academy of Neurology’s (AAN) brain death guideline was based, not on science, but on 3 rounds of anonymous voting.

Hmm…We’ve been declaring people to be “brain dead” for nearly 60 years…wouldn’t you think there’d be some high quality evidence for it by now?

In the absence of evidence, the AAN guideline was based on the shared biases of a panel of experts which was screened to exclude anyone who might disagree. About 30% of these experts reported a specific conflict of interest with the transplant industry.

The brain death examination consists of a series of bedside tests, because the guideline states that all ancillary tests (EEG, brain blood flow studies, brain scans) have shortcomings, and are not 100% sensitive and specific for brain death.

First, the patient is checked for unresponsiveness, because doctors have no tests for inward awareness: we can only test whether people are able and willing to respond, which is not the same thing. This is not really a fair test because many brain-injured people have cord compression and are unable to respond. Also, a recent NEJM article found covert consciousness with advanced testing in 25% of people who doctors believed to be unconscious.

Second, there should be no motion after a painful stimulus. But certain motions (lifting a limb off the bed, reaching with both hands toward the throat, opening eyes when the nipples are brushed) are allowed as “reflexes.” The guideline admits that it can be difficult to distinguish between volitional and reflex movements, and actually advises asking a friend if you are in doubt, showing the subjective nature of this assessment.

Third, whereas the legal definition of brain death requires the irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including the brain stem, the brain death guideline just checks a few brain stem reflexes. The guideline also explicitly states that brain death may be declared in the presence of ongoing brain function, in defiance of the law in most states.

Fourth, the patient is disconnected from their ventilator and observed for breathing. The guideline states that parameters for this test are ARBITRARY because there is no scientific data to justify the parameters recommended by the guideline.

So, today for Annelise, (and daily for many other patients around the world) life and death decisions will be made on the basis of an unverified and arbitrary exam for which there is no high-quality evidence.

Brain death is based on pseudoscience. It is an ethical choice masquerading as a medical fact.

This attention whoring couple of ghouls who killed their baby because that little one may have had Down Syndrome are a prime example of why people who seek out and go through with abortions should be charged with the murder of their baby. Both of them should face murder charges, along with the Mengele like freak who performed the deed.

[Catholic Arena @CatholicArena]

This sheer hatred of Down Syndrome people is disgusting.

You can literally brag about murdering them online, your own flesh and blood no less, and expect pity.
