Xavier Becerra Tried to Lock Me Up For the Crime of Journalism —
Even the Left Called it ‘Disturbing’
New York Post - Published online Oct. 20, 2026
by David Deleiden, Center for Medical Progress
excerpts from the article below
California gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra says his campaign is a “break the glass” moment for the state. I should know. During his time as California Attorney General, Becerra tried to put me in jail for exercising my basic First Amendment rights.
Specifically, he charged me with the “crime” of undercover video reporting on the harvesting and sale of aborted baby body parts. In other words: He tried to make journalism illegal.
Becerra’s predecessor in that office, Kamala Harris, launched the unprecedented case under California’s law restricting video recording of “confidential” conversations. It was the first and only time that law has been used against news gathering. On her watch, in 2016, the state launched an armed raid on my home to seize my undercover footage.
But it was Becerra who, in one of his first acts in office, made the decision to file 15 felony charges against me under the video recording law.
Even left-leaning outlets called Becerra’s filing of charges “a disturbing overreach” to protect a politically-favored interest group, namely Planned Parenthood. As the case dragged on, half the charges against me were thrown out. Two Southern California companies exposed by my undercover reporting admitted illegally selling body parts in a nearly $8 million settlement with local law enforcement.
But Becerra persisted, even arguing that exceptions in California’s video recording law for gathering evidence of crimes did not apply because legal abortion, in his view, meant that partial-birth abortions and even infanticide of an infant born alive during an abortion were not crimes against a “person.”
It was not until the Congressional release of some of the Harris-seized tapes, and the reelection of President Donald Trump, that Becerra’s successor, Rob Bonta, finally negotiated the dismissal of the case.
Xavier Becerra doesn’t want journalists to report on what he actually does. When he sat down with a journalist in May, he tried to tell her what she was allowed to ask him. “This is a profile piece, this is not a gotcha piece,” he instructed.
Take it from me: Becerra won’t stop there in his attempt to control the narrative. He’s right about one thing: This really is a “break the glass” moment. The First Amendment is at stake in this election.

Democrats are Lying About Miscarriage to Promote
Unlimited Abortions
LifeNews.com | Maria Gallagher
Oct. 20, 2026 | Washington, DC
The Pennsylvania Democratic Party is misleading voters in a mailer about miscarriage.
The Democrats are falsely claiming that a woman experiencing a miscarriage died because of a Texas pro-life law.
The mailer, authorized by pro-abortion Democrat Congressional candidate Janelle Stelson, says, “When Joselli was 28 she had a miscarriage. Because of an abortion ban, she died 3 days later.”
But, as Ashley Solano of Texas Right to Life noted in National Right to Life News Today, “Texas’ Pro-Life laws allow for medical intervention in cases of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. In a miscarriage, the baby dies naturally and must be removed from the mother’s womb due to possible risks of infection like sepsis.”
The scare tactics launched by Stelson and her Democrat allies are unconscionable. Miscarriage treatment is not an abortion; women should not be told otherwise.
Stelson is involved in a race to defeat pro-life incumbent GOP Congressman Scott Perry.
Perry notes that Stelson has repeatedly lied about his remarks and his record. CLICK HERE to read the rest of the story.

Why Has America’s Fertility Rate Dropped to Historic Lows?
LifeNews.com | Dan Hart | 10-20-26 | Washington, DC
With America’s and the globe’s fertility rate currently sagging to a historic low, a new survey data analysis has found that supportive friends and family, the influence of pro-natal celebrities, and an active religious life are all major contributors to boosting birth rates and helping couples achieve their desired family size.
In an extensive new report released Tuesday by the Institute for Family Studies (IFS), authors Lyman Stone, Peter Foreshaw Brookes, and Jason S. Carroll analyzed survey data taken from 10,000 respondents across over a dozen countries, asking about “a wide range of family attitudes” including peer and family influence, desirable family size, celebrity influences, religious practices, and other factors.

Virtual Abortion Pill Dispensary Disregards Accuracy and Safety
LiveAction.org - by Carole Novielli - 10-15-26
Though virtual abortion pill dispensary Abuzz Health attempts to use humor to advertise abortion drugs on social media, its lack of accuracy and seeming disregard for the safety of women and minors just aren't funny.
Key Takeaways:
-
Abuzz Health, which dispenses abortion pills, tells minors that "even if [they] don't have support from your parents," they can get the abortion pill — and refers them to places providing it.
-
Despite the FDA's limit of 10 weeks for the abortion pill, Abuzz refers to providers who give it to women up to 12 weeks and 6 days.
-
Abuzz FAQs make incorrect claims about the safety and effectiveness of the abortion pill.
-
Abuzz also tells women they don't need to disclose they've taken abortion pills if they experience complications. CLICK HERE for the entire article.
Why Do They Oppose
Killing Christa Pike But Support Killing Terri Schiavo?
LifeNews.com | Bobby Schindler | 10-13-26
The events in Tennessee surrounding the recent failed executions of two death-row inmates once again raise questions about how our society defines cruelty.
In May, officials spent more than an hour attempting to establish an IV line for death-row inmate Tony Carruthers before calling off the execution. Witnesses described him showing signs of pain and discomfort as medical personnel struggled to gain IV access.
On September 30, officials administered two doses of pentobarbital to Christa Pike, yet she survived. As a result, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee halted the state’s remaining executions for the year and ordered an independent investigation. At last report, Pike is recovering and speaking after being unconscious and on a ventilator.
Because of how Pike’s procedure was botched, a debate is once again raging over whether her execution amounted to unnecessary pain and suffering, and whether such a procedure can meet constitutional standards prohibiting cruel and unusual punishment under the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
This is not new. Since the 1960s, death penalty opponents have fervently argued that capital punishment constitutes cruel and unusual punishment. Their efforts appeared partially effective when a 1986 U.S. Supreme Court ruling prohibited the death penalty for those who were severely mentally ill, a protection expanded in 2002 to include individuals with intellectual disabilities.
However, the zeal to protect human life ends at the prison gates. Although persistent efforts are made to ensure that executions do not violate constitutional protections, medically defenseless Americans are routinely denied food and water through the withdrawal of feeding tubes in hospitals, nursing homes, and hospices across our country, leaving them to die from dehydration and starvation.

Mormon Church Donates
$1 Million to Stop
Abortions Up to Birth in Idaho
LifeNews.com | Madison LaClare
Oct. 13, 2026 | Boise, Idaho
On Friday, October 9, 2026, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints donated $1 million to the “Too Extreme for Idaho PAC,” a political action committee working to defeat Idaho’s Proposition 1. Current Idaho law generally prohibits abortion, with limited exceptions, including for rape and incest.
However, Proposition 1 allows abortion up to fetal viability, which it redefines, allowing abortion for any reason into the eighth month of pregnancy. Proposition 1 eliminates Idaho’s parental consent laws. Proposition 1 also says any “health care provider” can perform abortion.
The donation is notable not only for its size but also for the Church’s limited history of making political contributions of this kind. One comparable example was the Church’s involvement in opposing California’s Proposition 8 nearly two decades ago, when it reportedly spent more than $100,000 in support of the effort.
Following the Idaho donation, the Church issued a statement explaining its involvement: “While The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints remains neutral toward political candidates, it actively addresses ballot initiatives it believes carry significant moral consequences. Accordingly, the church has joined a coalition of like-minded organizations and individuals in Idaho to dedicate resources toward defeating Proposition 1.”

Three Strikes and You're Dead
Euthanasia Prevention Coalition-Blog
Oct. 14, 2026
by Amy Hasbrouck, Past President, EPC
her substack article: Euthanasia via advance request
for people with dementia
The Liberal government defeated the private members bill that would have prohibited MAiD for people whose requests were based only on a “mental disorder,” (either because it was sponsored by a conservative, or they didn’t want to bother amending the language) even as it announced a policy that would achieve the same end. This was just the latest in the Liberals’ highly (un)democratic moves undertaken with regard to state-sponsored killing of ill and disabled people.
At the same press conference, the Carney administration announced that while people with mental illness will be protected against the coercive effects of the MAiD regime, people with dementia will be thrown under the bus. Because the same prejudice that drives stigma and discrimination against people with a psychiatric disability applies equally (albeit with a slightly different flavour) to people with dementia; “You’d have to be out of your mind to want to live like that.” Euthanasia via advance request creates a motor coach sized loophole for abuse.
Under advance requests, people with dementia have three strikes against them. CLICK HERE to read the full article with all of the details for the "3 Strikes."
CANADA WILL EUTHANIZE MENTALLY INCOMPETENT PEOPLE HERE'S HOW
LifeNews.com | Alex Schadenberg
Oct. 8, 2026 | Ottawa, Canada
Justice Minister Sean Fraser and Health Minister Marjorie Michel stated on October 7, 2026 that the federal government will introduce legislation, that will prevent the implementation of euthanasia for mental illness as a sole criteria.
However, the government legislation will also permit euthanasia by advanced request.
Euthanasia by advanced request is a very dangerous concept as it permits doctors and nurse practitioners to kill someone who has become incompetent, based on an advanced request. CLICK HERE for the full story.

JUDGE DENIES
LINDSAY CLANCY'S REQUEST
TO BE FOUND NOT GUILTY
LifeNews.com | Steven Ertelt
Oct. 1, 2026 | Washington, DC
A judge on Thursday refused to find Lindsay Clancy not guilty of murder in the strangulation killings of her three children, Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months.
Plymouth Superior Court Judge William F. Sullivan denied a defense motion for a required finding of not guilty. The request, renewed after a hung jury, asked the court to clear Clancy of murder in the children’s deaths at the family’s Duxbury home on Jan. 24, 2023.
The first trial ended in a mistrial Sept. 4.
“The Court finds that the evidence, when viewed in the light most favorable to the Commonwealth and with the reasonable inferences permitted to be drawn, was sufficient to have satisfied any rational trier of fact beyond a reasonable doubt as to the essential element of the defendant’s criminal responsibility,” Sullivan wrote.
Prosecutors said Clancy ordered food from a restaurant in Plymouth that night and sent her husband, Patrick Clancy, to pick it up and to stop at CVS. GPS data and surveillance footage showed he was out of the house, and Sullivan wrote that Clancy was the only person home when the children were killed.

Physician-Assisted Suicide:
A Perversion of Mercy
by Kevin Jorrey
article excerpts below
In recent years, the push for Physician-Assisted Suicide (PAS) has been framed as a compassionate choice, a way to end suffering and uphold “personal dignity.” Yet the Catholic Church, rooted in Scripture and Tradition, makes clear that such practices gravely misunderstand both human dignity and authentic compassion.
In Canada, PAS has been legal for several years, and the consequences are devastating. In 2023 alone, over 15,000 Canadians died under what is called Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), a phrase that hides the harsh reality of euthanasia. When physicians abandon their oath to “do no harm” and instead participate in killing, the foundations of healthcare itself begin to collapse. CLICK HERE to read the FULL article.
Note from Tiffin Right to Life -- Be Aware: House Bill 835 was introduced this past Spring in the Ohio House to try to enact MAiD legislation for the State of Ohio. We must speak out against this to demand that MAiD does not become the law in Ohio.
THE REALITY OF
ELECTIVE ABORTION ON DEMAND
For many people, abortion is an abstract idea concerning personal freedom. They fail to grasp the true reality of what happens when a more powerful person chooses elective abortion (also known as abortion on demand). Elective abortion is a violent and fatal assault on an innocent human being growing and developing in his or her mother's womb with the sole intention of killing the growing child. Elective abortion is spoken about in euphemisms to hide the brutal reality of what occurs. This is why it is necessary to bring the truth forward.
EVEN IF AN ACT IS LEGAL
IT DOES NOT NECESSARILY MAKE IT MORAL
Ask yourself this question, "If Ohio law said it is legal to steal less than $500 from a bank, and you will not be prosecuted for doing so, would that make it morally right to steal?"
Many people incorrectly assume, "If it's legal, it must be moral."
When thinking rationally, people understand that ELECTIVE ABORTION ON DEMAND is now legal in many states, but
IS NOT and WILL NEVER BE a moral act.
Rational-thinking people further understand the science that medical care after a spontaneous miscarriage is NOT elective abortion because in a spontaneous miscarriage the baby in the womb is already deceased and medical care is necessary to prevent physical harm to the woman.
Rational-thinking people understand that "Elective Abortion On Demand" is NOT health care.
