Do Democrat officials want abortions up until the moment of birth? According to former Vice President Kamala Harris’ comments from a 2023 “Face the Nation” interview, that’s an absurd claim.
But fast-forward to 2026, and Massachusetts just signed it into law.
In the 2023 interview, Harris was asked about the repeal of Roe v. Wade, the infamous 1973 Supreme Court case that interpreted protections for abortions under the Fourteenth Amendment through a so-called “right to privacy.”
In 2022, the decision was overturned by Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.
“Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan asked Harris about Republicans’ claim that her party doesn’t want any cutoff date in a pregnancy for when an abortion can take place.
“Republicans say the lack of a precise date in cutting it off — you know this — they say that allows Democrats to perform abortions up until, you know, birth,” Brennan told her.
Harris shot back that the claim was “ridiculous,” calling it “a mischaracterization of the point.”
Do you think Harris wanted abortion to the moment of birth even while she was saying that claim is ridiculous?
Two years ago, Kamala Harris and the Democrats called it “ridiculous” that Republicans accused them of wanting abortions up until birth.

The current situation proves this is not so “ridiculous” after all.
Monday saw Massachusetts Democratic Gov. Maura Healey sign into law the “Prioritizing Patient Access to Care Act.” The previous law in the state allowed abortions up to 24 weeks, but now there are no limits.
Healey appeared before cameras, making it official as a crowd of moronic liberal women was elated at the idea of infanticide.
Will the Catholic-in-name-only gov of Massachusetts be denied Holy Communion this Sunday?🤔
These women, clapping & flapping like moronic circus seals, applaud the ability to slaughter their own children. This image is beyond dystopian; it’s purely demonic. https://t.co/J60msrVC7N

Harris made the claim to Brennan that the Democrats were “not trying to do anything that did not exist before June [2022] of last year.”
They just keep lying.
It’s about unlimited access to child murder.
Decades of conditioning through feminist propaganda have led us here. There are women who genuinely believe this is a noble cause. Over 64 million lives were lost from 1973-2025, according to Christian Life Resources.
The Nicene Creed, the statement of faith for all Christians, contains a line about Christ’s second coming:
“And He will come again with glory to judge the living and the dead.”
This is a day we should all look to in continuing the fight against child murder.
He will come again. He will judge us for this great evil.
