Is the "pro-life" community really pro-life? [View all]
My letter to the editor ran in today's issue of The Morning Call: Where are "pro-life" voices on deadly administration?
The following actions all have two things in common. Can you guess what they are?
The Trump Administration cut 83% of U. S. Agency for International programs which distribute medicine and food to vulnerable communities. By 2030, the cuts are expected to result in 14 million deaths.
Between Sept. 2nd and Oct. 26th, the Trump Administration has killed at least 43 people in strikes on Venezuelan boats in international waters. No evidence of illegal narcotic trafficking has been presented as justification for these attacks and no due process has been extended to the sailors.
Director of Health & Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has fired 20,000 employees and cut billions of dollars from services to inspect restaurants and monitor wastewater and from programs to prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer and infectious diseases like tuberculosis and HIV.
So, what do these three actions have in common?
First, the pro-life community has not risen up en masse to protest any of them and second, each action received significantly less coverage from some media outlets than that time President Obama wore a tan suit to a press conference.
