DC’s Waste Woes Show People Want Clean Water. The FDA Should Listen.
Mary Mobley | February 17, 2026
Washington, D.C. is commonly referred to as a cesspool. Most of the time, people don’t mean that literally — but now, they may have to. What was once an idiom has now morphed into reality thanks to a massive January sewer pipe collapse — the largest wastewater spill in U.S. history — that’s caused up to 300 million tons of wastewater to flood the Potomac. Obviously, that amount of wastewater isn’t healthy for anyone. In fact, the spill has

New York Now Allows Assisted Suicide to Kill Preborn Babies and Their Mothers — And Other States Are Following Suit
Olivia D'Angelo | February 17, 2026
If Democrats can’t kill babies through abortion, they will use assisted suicide to kill babies — and their mothers. New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed into law this month the state’s Medical Aid in Dying (MAID) Act, which allows those with terminal illnesses and a prognosis of 6 months or less to live to request to be killed by their doctors. The governor’s office claims in a news release that this was done

‘Pro-Choice’ Isn’t Pro-Woman: Students for Life Action’s Mary Kate Horlander in Townhall
Mary Mobley | February 16, 2026
The abortion industry loves to paint itself as a compassionate care provider for women and children. Of course, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Data abounds on the abortion industry’s failure to meet even basic standards of care. For proof, one needs to look no further than the New York Times’ stunning expose on Planned Parenthood from last year, which described a “Planned Parenthood in crisis” — rushed ten-minute appointments, failures to log STD tests, misplaced IUDs, staff’s inability

Mary Mobley | February 16, 2026

This tour focuses on an ugly truth, that human lives are sacrificed every day because women are sold the lie that

What Do Animal Rights Activists and Pro-Lifers Have in Common? More Than You Might Think
Mary Mobley | February 12, 2026
If you’ve been listening to the pro-life movement for any length of time, you may have heard the Endangered Species Act come up. And it should, as endangered species are harmed by abortion pills. No, that’s not some clever way of trying to convince liberals to care about preborn babies (though if it works, maybe it’s worth a try). Believe it or not, the concern is real — and even for those who support abortion, it may present a reason to
