Virginia's Amendment 1 is both extreme and deceptive.
It would allow abortion up to birth, abolish parental consent, and more.

Important new amicus brief on parental rights and gender ideology: "The brief shows that parents’ constitutional rights are rooted in the common law tradition. At common law, parents’ rights correlate with their broad duties to their children, and the law presumes that parents have their children’s best interests at heart—a presumption rebuttable only by an individualized finding." @ekniffin@maryricehassoneppc.org/publication/eppc-su…
40 years ago today, the Senate confirmed Antonin Scalia's Supreme Court nomination by a vote of 98-0.
In today's Confirmation Tales, the law clerk who assisted Scalia throughout the confirmation process provides an insider’s account of choking up, running, eye rolling, and a smoking warning.

This week, @thatazuresea reviews @noellem's No Contact, arguing that families aren't oppressive, authority isn't authoritarian, and disagreement isn't abuse—despite the claims of expressive individualism.
My thoughts on reforming and revitalizing American higher education. There is a lot that donors can do, but they need to be careful and strategic in their giving.

Earlier this month ProPublica tried to blame prolife states post-Dobbs for a big recent increase in ectopic pregnancy deaths.
@Mr_Jamie_B_Hall accessed the underlying CDC data, and it tells a very different story:
The big jump in ectopic-related deaths occurs a year before Dobbs. So hard to pin it on Dobbs.
It occurs in both pro-life and pro-abortion states. Though it is higher in pro-life states.
What could the explanation be?
The big jump occurs right after the removal of the last remaining in-person safeguard for the abortion pill, and women in pro-life states probably purchased online mail-order abortion pills at higher rates than in pro-abortion states.
Hence the jump occurring when and where and at the rates it did.
The removal of the in-person dispensing requirement for the abortion pill, not Dobbs, is most likely to blame.

Ed Whelan has written the definitive legal analysis of Virginia's Amendment 1 on the ballot this November. It has radical consequences on gender ideology, parental rights, and abortion. As Ed notes, it will:
Enable a child, without her parents’ knowledge or consent, to receive puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and sterilization surgery.
Make abortion freely available throughout the third trimester of pregnancy, all the way up to birth;
Abolish the right of parents to be consulted on, and to consent to, abortions sought by their young daughters;
Enable anyone to perform an abortion and to escape legal responsibility for botching an abortion.

What occurred on 9/11 is a testament to the reality of evil, the valor of fallen heroes, and the promise that no matter how secular the modern West may think itself to be, God has placed not only eternity on our hearts, but the cry for justice, too.

Today at @realDailyWire, I have an essay reflecting on what September 11, 2001, revealed about a nation already on a secular trajectory—and whether secularism could meet the challenges of that day or those we face currently. dailywire.com/news/september…
