I grew up fundie. The story of the post-birth abortion is based in this factual story of a baby in 1982 whose parents denied treatment to a live-born baby based on severe abnormalities. https://embryo.asu.edu/pages/baby-doe-rules-1984
The case made national news. Laws were changed. I remember a song written about this event. I bring this up because we want to write off the "abortion after birth" rhetoric as nonsense, but this history is instructive about the origin and why it is nonsense. #politics
@CarmenSlamdiego nah, he and his cult have been saying this for years. The evangelicals got a big part of what they wanted in Dobbs and then realized that it was harder to make Dems into monsters when 80% of America believed in the established lines from Roe.
