A Strange View of “Sacred”

Pro-life conservatives in Congress, led by Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), are courageously fighting the Biden administration's radical pro-abortion policies. Sen. Tuberville has been blocking military promotions in protest of the Pentagon's new policy that uses your hard-earned tax dollars to subsidize the travel costs of female personnel seeking abortions.

House conservatives recently approved an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act to defund these pro-abortion subsidies. But the Biden administration is fighting back.

White House spokesman John Kirby declared that female troops have a right to expect that the military "is going to take care of you," and that they can "count on the kinds of health care and reproductive care they need."

Kirby added that this "reproductive care," i.e. abortion, is a "foundational sacred obligation of military leaders," and, "It's just the right darn thing to do for people that raise their hand and agreed to serve in the military."

To describe the destruction of innocent children as a "sacred obligation" is a shocking and deeply offensive statement coming from someone like Kirby, whose job it once was to defend this country.

Kirby's remarks are grossly misleading, and he knows it. As a retired rear admiral, he surely knows that no woman volunteers to serve the military because of a government promise to subsidize abortions.

Kirby certainly knows that such a policy has never existed before and explicitly violates the Hyde Amendment — the federal law that prevents the government from subsidizing abortions.

But it speaks volumes of the Left that Kirby would defend abortion as a "foundational sacred obligation." Pregnancy is not a disease. Abortion is not health care. And there is nothing "sacred" about it.

A January Marist poll found that 60% of Americans overwhelmingly oppose taxpayer-funding of abortion.

JDFI applauds Sen. Tuberville's bold stand against this outrageous pro-abortion Pentagon policy. We urge Speakers Kevin McCarthy and other pro-life advocates in the House of Representatives to stand firm and hold the line in upcoming negotiations with the Democrat Senate.

From communist China to significant areas of the Islamic world, Christians are harassed by governments and threatened by mobs.

Biden’s Godless Thanksgiving

All of us at JDFI hope you enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends. Thanksgiving traces its roots back to the pilgrims in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Our first President, George Washington, issued the Thanksgiving Proclamation of 1789, which described in its opening sentence what the occasion was all about. President Washington wrote: "Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor…"

The Biden administration is continuing a government-wide effort to promote LGBTQ ideology and trans insanity. From the Department of Defense to Health and Human Services, from the Justice Department to the Department of Education, bureaucrats are working tirelessly, using all the power of our massive federal government, to force radical social change.
