Mary Ziegler is a law professor at Florida State University College of Law and serves as the “intellectual thought leader” on abortion law and policy (on the pro-abortion side). In light of Arkansas’s recent near-total abortion ban, Ziegler penned an op ed that ran on CNN this week and contains many themes that will likely be echoed by other abortion

Unfortunately, Thursday’s presidential debate failed to mention the issue of court packing; the American people were once more denied full transparency when it comes to knowing just how much Joe Biden would transform the courts. We’ve written plenty before about Democratic proposals to pack the Supreme Court, though, because there is plenty at stake. It doesn’t help that Joe Biden

Brenna Lewis | October 20, 2020
The 1973 Supreme Court case that legalized abortion on demand through all nine months and for any reason (alongside its companion case, Doe v. Bolton) is known as Roe v. Wade. The only reason abortion up until birth is not the law of the land in every state is thanks to states’ abilities to enact their own abortion limits… though late-term abortion is the

One might think that an event called the Women’s March, where its speakers and attendees claim to be speaking for women, all women would be treated with respect. Angry protesters, however, couldn’t handle the presence of a viewpoint which dared to challenge their pro-abortion narrative. They couldn’t help themselves from committing harassment, assault, and vandalism. Our team members were pushed,

Brenna Lewis | October 15, 2020
Whether or not Judge Amy Coney Barrett would reverse Roe v. Wade inevitably came up during Day Two of her confirmation hearings. Senators had this on their minds, as well as to what Judge Barrett’s personal views were on the decision, if she had discussed ruling on the decision with President Trump, and, most importantly, how Roe v. Wade is not a

Senator Cory Booker Easily Wins Award for Most Hysterical Fear-Mongering on Roe v. Wade
Brenna Lewis | October 12, 2020
Judge Amy Coney Barrett has not even been confirmed to the Supreme Court, yet Democrats are already in hysterics over the fate of the Roe v. Wade. Perhaps the most absurd warnings came from Senator Cory Booker. He used his time to explain how “people are scared right now… because they know what a future without the protections of Roe

Democrats Don’t Know What “Court Packing” Means
Brenna Lewis | October 12, 2020
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have engaged in quite the show of mental gymnastics with their non-answers on the integral question about if they will pack the Supreme Court by adding more members to the Court than the typical nine. The new talking point is even more bizarre, with Biden and other Democrats claiming that it’s Republicans who are
