Two years after the fall of Roe v. Wade—and in the heat of a presidential election year—the most powerful politicians on both sides of the aisle seem prepared to more or less wash their hands of protecting preborn children. But nobody's happiness can ever come at the cost of another person's life. The hands-off approach of both major political parties says, effectively, that the death of the preborn is an acceptable price to pay for less political noise—or greater electoral success.

Most viewers of the NFL might not realize how short halftime actually is. As a former player let me tell you, at just 13 minutes you have only enough time to run up the tunnel to the locker room, where coaches make some quick in-game adjustments, and run right back out on the field to start the second half. It's a blur. When it comes to the pro-life movement, I've compared the overturning of Roe v. Wade to halftime.

OPINION: The home is the world’s oldest and most vital institution. Civilization’s other two great institutions, the church and the government, find their roots in the nurturing influence and subsequent trajectory of its members.

OPINION: The tell was when they changed the wording to something that better reflects the brutal reality. In September, the Ohio Supreme Court ruled that the language of Issue 1 – a radical proposed amendment to the state’s constitution that would legalize abortion until birth for almost any reason – must be updated.
