Abortion is one thing, however the extent to which Democrats have reached has left even many pro-choice Americans in shock after this dark move.
President Donald Trump slammed Democrats on Monday evening for refusing to support legislation that would prevent innocent newborn babies from being killed if they were born alive after surviving an abortion.
“All but three Democrats voted against a procedural motion on the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, denying it the necessary 60 votes to proceed,” The Mercury News reported. “The final vote count was 53 in favor and 44 opposed.”
“Senate Democrats just voted against legislation to prevent the killing of newborn infant children,” Trump tweeted. “The Democrat position on abortion is now so extreme that they don’t mind executing babies AFTER birth.”
“This will be remembered as one of the most shocking votes in the history of Congress,” Trump continued. “If there is one thing we should all agree on, it’s protecting the lives of innocent babies.”
The Mercury News added: “Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has sought to put Democrats – and 2020 candidates in particular – on the record on the issue after recent comments made by Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam of Democrats. McConnell also plans to hold a vote in the coming weeks on the Green New Deal climate-change legislation as he has cast the Democrats as extreme.”
Below are excerpts from the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act (formatting adjusted):
To amend title 18, United States Code, to prohibit a health care practitioner from failing to exercise the proper degree of care in the case of a child who survives an abortion or attempted abortion. […]
To amend title 18, United States Code, to prohibit a health care practitioner from failing to exercise the proper degree of care in the case of a child who survives an abortion or attempted abortion. […]
Congress finds the following:
(1) If an abortion results in the live birth of an infant, the infant is a legal person for all purposes under the laws of the United States, and entitled to all the protections of such laws.
(2) Any infant born alive after an abortion or within a hospital, clinic, or other facility has the same claim to the protection of the law that would arise for any newborn, or for any person who comes to a hospital, clinic, or other facility for screening and treatment or otherwise becomes a patient within its care. […]
“(1) DEGREE OF CARE REQUIRED; IMMEDIATE ADMISSION TO A HOSPITAL.—Any health care practitioner present at the time the child is born alive shall—
“(A) exercise the same degree of professional skill, care, and diligence to preserve the life and health of the child as a reasonably diligent and conscientious health care practitioner would render to any other child born alive at the same gestational age; and
“(B) following the exercise of skill, care, and diligence required under subparagraph (A), ensure that the child born alive is immediately transported and admitted to a hospital.
“(2) MANDATORY REPORTING OF VIOLATIONS.—A health care practitioner or any employee of a hospital, a physician’s office, or an abortion clinic who has knowledge of a failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (1) shall immediately report the failure to an appropriate State or Federal law enforcement agency, or to both.
“(b) Penalties.—
“(1) IN GENERAL.—Whoever violates subsection (a) shall be fined under this title, imprisoned for not more than 5 years, or both.
“(2) INTENTIONAL KILLING OF CHILD BORN ALIVE.—Whoever intentionally performs or attempts to perform an overt act that kills a child born alive described under subsection (a), shall be punished as under section 1111 of this title for intentionally killing or attempting to kill a human being.
“(c) Bar To Prosecution.—The mother of a child born alive described under subsection (a) may not be prosecuted for a violation of this section, an attempt to violate this section, a conspiracy to violate this section, or an offense under section 3 or 4 of this title based on such a violation.
“(d) Civil Remedies.—
“(1) CIVIL ACTION BY A WOMAN ON WHOM AN ABORTION IS PERFORMED.—If a child is born alive and there is a violation of subsection (a), the woman upon whom the abortion was performed or attempted may, in a civil action against any person who committed the violation, obtain appropriate relief.
“(2) APPROPRIATE RELIEF.—Appropriate relief in a civil action under this subsection includes—
“(A) objectively verifiable money damage for all injuries, psychological and physical, occasioned by the violation of subsection (a);
“(B) statutory damages equal to 3 times the cost of the abortion or attempted abortion; and
“(C) punitive damages.
“(3) ATTORNEY’S FEE FOR PLAINTIFF.—The court shall award a reasonable attorney’s fee to a prevailing plaintiff in a civil action under this subsection.
“(4) ATTORNEY’S FEE FOR DEFENDANT.—If a defendant in a civil action under this subsection prevails and the court finds that the plaintiff’s suit was frivolous, the court shall award a reasonable attorney’s fee in favor of the defendant against the plaintiff.
“Senators who could not bring themselves to vote to pass the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act should reconsider whether or not they have what it takes to serve,” March for Life President Jeanne Mancini said in a statement to Fox News. “Senator Sasse’s common sense bill would merely require doctors assist a newborn struggling to survive after a failed attempt on her life. Anyone who lacks the basic level of human compassion needed to vote in favor of this should quickly find another job. We look forward to a vote in the House of Representatives so that Chamber can get on record as well.”

We should Return 1 immigrant for every baby murdered by the Democrats & Republicans that have agreed to this murder of infants! These people want to replace our citizens with immigrants! NO MORALITY AT ALL! THEY CAN ONLY DESTROY THE USA, OPEN BORDERS, ANARCHY AND SOCIALISM!
RE: ABORTION LEGISLATION This is absurd nonsense reflecting complete ignorance of how late-term abortions are done. It is an insult to the medical profession and to women whose lives depend on these procedures, and it panders to fear-mongers and misogynists. The concern about the care of these babies simply highlights the hypocrisy of people who are quite comfortable with denying children healthcare, decent food and housing, and – as we have seen on our southern border – even the comfort of their parents. You should heed the quote from a Catholic Nun
Just because you’re opposed to abortion, that doesn’t make you Pro-Life.
“In fact, I think in many cases your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born, but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed.
And why would I think that you don’t. Because you don’t want any tax money to go there. That’s not pro-life. That’s pro-birth.” –Sister Joan Chittister

ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF RELIGIOUS HYPOCRISY AT A NATIONAL LEVEL…
Let’s see them cringe when God does “US” in for this devilish action – guaranteed!
Diane says Trump sent by God
It is time to pay attention to what the Democrats really are. They do not blink at
murdering babies. So what will they do to the rest of us if they will kill babies? It
is time to vote out every Democrat/Socialist in Congress. They are a threat to our
country and our safety.
The Devil is in the Democrate! Need I say more? I firmly believe in God and therefore they all have a really big surprise coming!
Whatever happened to birth control or even better keeping your legs crossed/abstinence!
This just proves that there are many in Congress that are in collusion with the Pizza Gate theory . . . where the body parts of the young are fed upon as a part of some devilish ritual act! Along with Hillary and Poneta, there must be a huge underground that supply’s these baby body parts . . . exactly what happens to the aborted babies anyway?!?
Wake the puck up America . . . the truth is darker than we could ever imagine . . . and the leaders of our country are the guilty ones!!!
FOR REAL CAMPAIGN REVOLUTION . . . NEVER AGAIN VOTE FOR THE INCUMBENT . . . UNLESS YOU KNOW, BEYOND A SHADOW OF DOUBT, THEY ARE DOING THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE . . . AND THEN FOR ONLY ONE MORE TERM!!! WE HAVE TO IMPOSE TERM LIMITS ON CONGRESS . . . IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO REGAIN THE PEOPLES RIGHTFUL PLACE AS THE TRUE BOSS OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ! ! !
OUTSTANDING, should be done until a Constitutional Third Party is created!
