Jury Refuses to Prosecute Pro-Life Advocate for Recording Planned Parenthood Video

A San Francisco jury deadlocked Friday in the bogus criminal case against pro-life advocate Anastasia Rogers


Their decision, a temporary victory for the pro-life woman, forces a mistrial after most jurors rejected prosecutors’ claim that a 14-second social media video she recorded outside a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic amounted to illegal intimidation.

The case stemmed from a brief Instagram reel Rogers posted contrasting her peaceful sidewalk outreach with the work of a clinic escort. Prosecutors charged her four months later under California’s Freedom of Access to Clinic and Church Entrances (FACE) Act and Penal Code 423.2(g), alleging she intentionally videotaped within 100 feet of the reproductive health facility without consent and with the intent to intimidate.

After nearly two weeks of trial and deliberations this week, jurors could not reach a unanimous verdict.

According to information disclosed following the mistrial, the jury stood 10-2 in favor of acquittal on Count 1 and 9-3 in favor of acquittal on Count 2. ---More...


Here’s What President Trump Can Do Today to Save Babies From Abortion

The second administration of President Donald Trump—once hailed as the most pro-life president ever—isn’t taking advantage of the opportunities presented by the Supreme Court opinion that overturned abortion precedent Roe v. Wade, a pro-life expert says.

“The pro-life movement has been frustrated with the Trump administration—at least this time around—because they have so many [fewer] restraints,” Gavin Oxley, legal operations and media relations manager for Americans United for Life, told the Daily Signal in an interview Tuesday. “They have a lot more freedom to enact pro-life policy, and they’re not acting on it.”

The newfound freedom comes as a result of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022. ---More...


No Matter What They Call It, Abortion Kills Babies

Reproductive Freedom for All, the organization formerly known as NARAL Pro-Choice America, the National Abortion Rights Action League, and the National Association for the Repeal of Abortion Laws, has changed its name more often than some people change passwords. Their own history page lists the name changes in 1969, 1973, 2003, and 2023. The wardrobe changes have not helped.

Same old abortion lobby. Same old hysteria. Same old need to pretend National Right to Life is hiding behind every curtain with a “criminalization playbook.” But give them credit for this. They understand who their chief foil is: “NRLC has helped shape the anti-abortion movement’s legal and legislative playbook for decades…” --- More...


Man Screams “Help Me” During Botched Euthanasia

On May 27 an article by Brian Williams and Sharon Kirkey that was published by the London Free Press on May 27, 2026 reported on the euthanasia deaths by Dr James MacLean.

Dr James MacLean is one of the few doctors to be sanctioned for unprofessional conduct related to his euthanasia deaths. One of the complaints included a euthanasia assessment that was done at a Tim Horton’s coffee shop while another concerned a “botched” euthanasia death whereby MacLean declared the man dead, when he wasn’t dead…

Sharon Kirkey wrote a difficult article that was published by the National Post on June 3, 2026 concerning euthanasia complications that challenges the “good death” paradigm that is sold by the euthanasia lobby. Kirkey wrote: ---More...


We Will Never Give Up Until Every Baby is Protected From Abortion

If every state in the country suddenly adopted laws that allowed abortion for any reason for all nine months of pregnancy, would we, the pro-life movement, shrug our shoulders, say, “Well, we tried” and move on to do something else?

Of course not! We basically faced that situation for almost 50 years under Roe v Wade. We didn’t give up. We didn’t back down. We kept fighting, using all the tools and every resource available.

We found ways to pass laws that saved babies. We found ways to educate our communities about the evils of abortion. We found ways to help women facing an unexpected pregnancy. ---More...
