Pro-Death Pelosi Declares ‘One of the Darkest Days Our Country Has Ever Seen’ By Billy Hallowell for Faith Wire
GNN Note – I’m so old I remember Nancy Pelosi proclaiming how “catholic” she is before the world.
Pelosi is pressed on whether Democrat rhetoric is fueling attacks on crisis pregnancy centers.
She refuses to condemn attacks – and says “politicizing all of this is uniquely American.”

Reactions are pouring in after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the contentious 1973 verdict that legalized abortion nationwide.
While pro-lifers such as Franklin Graham and Lila Rose cheered the ruling, Democrats like former President Barack Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi unveiled fiery and emotional responses.
The Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision — a case centered on Mississippi’s law precluding abortions after 15 weeks — will ban abortion in around half of the states in America and return such decisions to the people.
Justice Samuel Alito wrote in the opinion that it is time to return judgments around abortion to the “people and their elected representatives.”
“We end this opinion where we began. Abortion presents a profound moral question. The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion,” he wrote. “Roe and Casey arrogated that authority. We now overrule those decisions and return that authority to the people and their elected representatives.”
What Pro-Lifers Had to Say
Pro-lifers immediately heralded the decision. March for Life President Jeanne Mancini released a statement noting that the victory has been 50 years in the making.
“For nearly fifty years, the Supreme Court has imposed an unpopular and extreme abortion policy on our nation, but as the annual March for Life gives witness to, Roe’s allowance of abortion-on-demand, up-until-birth has never represented where most Americans stand on life!” she said.
