The Raw Report is reporting that Carol Everett has been awarded a 1.65 million dollar grant for her Heidi Group that seeks to dissuade women from having abortions.

Why we don’t support media trolls
It’s not like we don’t see people reminding us in comments on videos asking Aron if he is going to respond to something a media troll said.

People have been able to get safe, legal abortions in the U.S. for over 40 years now. Ever since, Roe Vs.

Secular Pro-Life (Anti-choice) Claim: Planned Parenthood Cheats Donors
Apparently, Secular Pro-Life is so irked by Planned Parenthood that they are willing to make unfounded charges about what they do with donations. True Pooka investigates… Now that you’re done reading I’m going to show you a magic trick I call; “Proper research done without confirmation bias followed by conclusions drawn based on experience and […]
Secular Pro-Life “Fetus Worshippers”?
Should we defend freethinking spaces from anti-choicers like Secular Pro-Life? I wanted more information on this organization as I have seen them at conventions. Lucky for me, I know you-tuber True Pooka, who as he will tell you, shares the same concern. He has more experience investigating anti-choice groups than I do. He has shown […]
