'Women and those with other gender identities who are able to get pregnant have the right to decide to terminate a pregnancy within 14 weeks of gestation,' the bill states.
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, December 12, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — The lower house of the Argentinian Congress voted to legalize abortion in the fourteenth week of pregnancy Friday, setting the stage for a bitter confrontation in the nation’s Senate.
The bill, which declares that “[w]omen and those with other gender identities who are able to get pregnant have the right to decide to terminate a pregnancy within 14 weeks of gestation,” passed 131-117, with six abstensions, Reuters reports.
The vote follows intense debate between pro-life Argentines adorned in blue, who flooded the streets in more than 500 cities last month in protest, and pro-abortion activists, who wear the green scarves that have come to symbolize the movement and have the support of international organizations such as Amnesty International.
“This is a fundamental step and recognition of a long struggle that women’s movements have been carrying out in our country for years,” said Elizabeth Gómez Alcorta, the government’s Women, Gender and Diversity minister. “We are going to continue working so that the voluntary termination of pregnancy becomes law.”
“They don’t want to show what an abortion is,” responded Mariana Ledger, a pro-life demonstrator carrying a cross and a dummy of an aborted baby. “This is it, and they don’t want to show it. They are hiding the truth, we are not foolish people.”
The pro-abortion measure, which has the support of President Alberto Fernández, now moves on to the Argentinian Senate, where the vote is expected to be close. Numerous prior attempts to legalize abortion have died in the Senate over the past several years.
Advocates of repealing the country’s pro-life protections argue that they fail to prevent half a million abortions a year, and have only made illegal abortions the country’s leading cause of maternal death.
Americans United for Life (AUL) disputed such claims in a 2012 report on the state of abortion in Latin America. Citing statistics from Argentina’s National Ministry of Health, it found that illegal abortions represent a small percentage of maternal deaths, 74 out of 306 in 2007.
Further, the report quoted the World Health Organization as acknowledging that “hospital structure” was the “most important variable” to determining maternal deaths. “The availability of essential obstetric care, active emergencies and experts” must be addressed to save women’s lives, AUL concluded, rather than legalizing abortion.
— Article continues below Petition — PETITION: Defend our right to "Choose Life"! Show Petition Text 11454 have signed the petition. Let's get to 12500 ! Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition States are blocking pro-lifers from sharing the simple message “Choose Life” on their vehicles! Please SIGN this joint petition between LifeSite and The Children First Foundation to make "Choose Life" license plates available in every state! Tell governors and state officials to allow this pro-life freedom of speech. Advertising industry statistics show that, for the typical vehicle, a “Choose Life” plate and its simple, powerful message will be seen by other drivers 30,000 to 80,000 times a year. And, across the U.S., “Choose Life” vehicle license plates (or tags) have raised more than $28 million for pro-life pregnancy centers, maternity homes, safe havens, and adoption centers, varying with each state. The potential for expanding the “Choose Life” license plate program to new states and new members is incredible – but only if citizens are allowed to have the plates! It is appalling that seventeen U.S. states do not allow their citizens the right to put “Choose Life” license plates on their vehicles. The plates have been called pro-life “scare tactics” by Planned Parenthood and unlawful or hateful “private speech” by pro-abortion lawyers. The “Choose Life” message, however, is one of pure love that scares nobody except those who profit from death. It is unacceptable that we are blocked from our God-given and Constitutional right to spread the message of love and life for vulnerable unborn and newborn children. Your signature on this petition – no matter where you live – will help to get the “Choose Life” license plate program in states where it is not yet permitted! Please SIGN and SHARE this petition to make a real difference in persuading these state governments and Departments of Motor Vehicles to “Choose Life.” Consider, for example, our experience in New York, where Governor Andrew Cuomo is a nationally-recognized advocate of abortion and has been a relentless opponent of the pro-life movement. Cuomo has blocked the approval of “Choose Life” license plates in NY, despite widespread support for these truly positive messages of love and life. A headline in the New York Post declared, “The DMV Acts Like We Live in Pyongyang.” And, in nearby New Jersey and Connecticut, similar hurdles were faced. But we took the fight to the government officials and even to federal court. And, with the help of petitions, we were able to get “Choose Life” license plates on the road in both states. It is high time for us to convert EVERY state in America to choose life. Your signature on this petition - no matter where you live - will help make that happen by placing “Choose Life” license plates on tens of thousands more cars. For love, for life, for the babies, please SIGN and SHARE our worldwide petition to tell state officials and politicians to stop blocking approval of the “Choose Life” license plate!

“The polls say that 60% of Argentines do not approve of abortion,” pro-life José Carmuega tells LifeSiteNews’s Jonathon Van Maren. “The Catholic Church, the Evangelical and civil organizations are united to stop the law, and … the pro-life community will continue to grow on a continental level.”

OTTAWA , Ontario , December 12 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — The Canadian House of Commons has sent Bill C-7 , which would expand provisions for assisted suicide in Canada , to the Senate for review after the contentious bill passed the third reading yesterday .
A total of 213 Members of Parliament ( MP ) voted in favor of the bill , with 106 votes against it .
15 Conservative Party of Canada ( CPC ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all the rest ( 103 ) voting against it , including CPC leader Erin O ’ Toole .
All NDP , Green , and Bloc Quebecois MPs voted for the bill .
Most Liberal MPs save for two voted in favor .
Former justice minister Jody Wilson-Raybould , who now sits as an independent , voted against the bill .
Canada ’ s Senate will now debate the bill starting early next week .
Bill C-7 , should it become law , will take away “ safeguards ” currently in place in Canada @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prerequisite that the person who is looking to take their own life with assistance be terminally ill , and able to provide their consent at the time of death .
Also , Bill C-7 would take away the requirement that two witnesses be present to demonstrate that the person who is seeking to kill himself indeed wants to “ die ” with medical aid .
The CPC had been filibustering the bill for days until today ’ s third reading passage , due to concerns that the bill does not properly protect disabled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into assisted suicide rather than seeking help .
During the recent debate of the bill , CPC MP Marc Dalton said that Bill C-7 is “ poor legislation ” and he will not be voting for it .
“ Madam Speaker , I will not be voting in favour of Bill C-7 .
It is poor legislation that will negatively impact many of the most vulnerable Canadians .
If passed , there certainly will be more court challenges that will only dilute the few protections that are currently in place , ” said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Canada ’ s Justice Minister David Lametti , who introduced Bill C-7 , said he was “ pleased that we have cleared this hurdle , ” but added that he is “ disappointed that this is happening later than it should have.
” Interestingly , two of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ’ s Liberal Party MP ’ s voted against the bill , one being Thunder Bay-Rainy River ’ s Marcus Powlowski , and the other Nathaniel Erskine-Smith from the riding of Beaches-East York .
Powlowski is also a medical doctor .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ he would not vote in favor of Bill C-7 .
“ My biggest concern , as someone who has spent my whole life trying to avoid accidentally killing people , is that we don ’ t end up using MAID for people who don ’ t really want to die , ” he said in a CBC report .
Powlowski added that with “ time , ” people might “ come around to the fact that there are reasons they want to live.
” “ I don ’ t like voting against my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ medical background and somebody who has dealt with this issue over the years a lot , I think morally it ’ s incumbent upon me to stand up when it comes to issues of health and life and death , ” he added .
Euthanasia was legalized in Canada by the Trudeau Liberals in 2016 with Bill C-14 .
In an analysis of Bill C-7 , Alex Schadenberg , executive director of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition , said the bill will further expand Canada ’ s euthanasia laws , allowing for the lethal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to properly consent .

“ Bill C-7 is really bad ; it ’ s really , really crazy .

Bill @ @ @ @ @ @ @ acceptance of a Quebec court decision last September .

The Calgary-based Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms ( JCCF ) has said that Bill C-7 poses a great risk to the elderly , especially now with COVID-19 lockdowns in place .

“ Bill C-7 would allow those who are not terminally ill to commit suicide , even for reasons of increased mental and physical suffering during lockdowns @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confined as a long-term care resident .
State execution of patients in such circumstances would be a gross and heinous violation of protection of the right to life under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

lifesitenews--2020-12-12--Supreme Court refuses to hear Texas case. Other cases are still pending

LifeSiteNews is facing increasing censorship .
Click HERE to sign up to receive emails when we add to our video library .
December 12 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — Let ’ s start by stating what the Supreme Court ’ s decision not to hear the Texas case does not mean : It does not mean that the 2020 presidential election is over .
Those who tried to steal the election have not won .
President Trump still has a pathway to victory .
The U.S. Supreme Court set aside the Texas case not on its merits , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have “ standing ” to sue other states for violating their own election laws .
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton had assembled a massive amount of evidence showing the “ rampant lawlessness ” of the elections that were held in Pennsylvania , Georgia , Wisconsin , and Michigan .
The Supremes refused to review it .
Rudy Giuliani , President Trump ’ s personal attorney , said Friday on Newsmax TV ’ s “ Stinchfield ” that President Trump will continue to fight .
Giuliani said , “ The case wasn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was rejected on standing .
So the answer to that is to bring the case now to the district court by the president , by some of the electors , alleging some of the same facts where there would be standing and therefore get a hearing.
” “ Basically , the courts are saying they want to stay out of this and they don ’ t want to give us a hearing ; they don ’ t want the American people to hear these facts , ” Giuliani continued .
“ I think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mistake .
These facts will remain an open sore in our history unless they get resolved .
They need to be heard , they need to be aired , and somebody needs to make a decision on whether they ’ re true or false .
Some court ’ s going to have to have the courage to make that decision.
” To the disappointment of many , that court was not SCOTUS , which said in rejecting the suit : “ The State of Texas ’ s motion for leave to file a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of standing under Article III of the Constitution .
Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections .
All other pending motions are dismissed as moot.
” Justices Alito and Thomas were the only two Supremes who voted to hear the case , while Trump appointees Gorsuch , Barrett and Kavanaugh simply said no with the other seven .
In response , President Trump said this morning , “ The Supreme Court had ZERO interest in the merits of the greatest voter fraud @ @ @ @ @ @ @ America .
All they were interested in is ‘ standing ’ , which makes it very difficult for the President to present a case on the merits .
75,000,000 votes !
” I think everyone can understand the President ’ s frustration here .
Trump attorney Jenna Ellis pointed out that SCOTUS is not supposed to decline to hear a case of original jurisdiction — when one state sues another — and that claiming that states don ’ t have standing to do just that is “ a ridiculous political posture.
” And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not “ judicially cognizable ” ?
Is it not “ self-evident ” — to borrow a term from the Declaration of Independence — that everyone , not just in Texas but in the entire United States of America , is harmed by allowing a fraudulent election to stand ?
Any American citizen should be able to file suit in federal court against those states that allowed ballot-stuffing and electronic voter fraud to disenfranchise the rest of us .
After all , we all have to live with the results .
As far as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ here , Giuliani said , “ The president ’ s reaction is to look at other options .
I mean , … originally , we thought about this as possibly four or five separate cases .
So that is the option we are going to have to go to .
There ’ s nothing that prevents us from filing these cases immediately in the district court in which the president , of course , would have standing , some of the electors would have standing in that their constitutional rights have been violated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Believe me.
” In addition to cases that will be filed by the Trump legal team , there are a number of other cases already filed on behalf of people from within those key swing states whose “ standing ” is not in question .
They are claiming that their rights were violated by the failure of state officials to carry out a free and fair election according to the laws set out by that state ’ s own legislature .
One such set of lawsuits has been filed by the great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out : “ Pay attention !
We made emergency filings in the Supreme Court tonight for Georgia and Michigan .
Will be filing Arizona and Wisconsin shortly .
These cases raise constitutional issues and prove massive fraud .
Our plaintiffs have standing .
We the People will not allow rigged elections.
” Lin Wood and others also have lawsuits pending in state and federal courts .
Today , for example , the Wisconsin Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case on whether laws enacted by the state legislature were followed .
Each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hearings is an opportunity to bring to light more cases of voter fraud , many of which will be added to the ongoing lawsuits , and help to show that the election was stolen .

December 12, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — Let’s start by stating what the Supreme Court’s decision not to hear the Texas case does not mean: It does not mean that the 2020 presidential election is over. Those who tried to steal the election have not won. President Trump still has a pathway to victory.
The U.S. Supreme Court set aside the Texas case not on its merits, but on the grounds that Texas did not have “standing” to sue other states for violating their own election laws. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton had assembled a massive amount of evidence showing the “rampant lawlessness” of the elections that were held in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Michigan. The Supremes refused to review it.
Rudy Giuliani, President Trump’s personal attorney, said Friday on Newsmax TV’s “Stinchfield” that President Trump will continue to fight. Giuliani said, “The case wasn’t rejected on the merits, the case was rejected on standing. So the answer to that is to bring the case now to the district court by the president, by some of the electors, alleging some of the same facts where there would be standing and therefore get a hearing.”
“Basically, the courts are saying they want to stay out of this and they don’t want to give us a hearing; they don’t want the American people to hear these facts,” Giuliani continued. “I think that’s a terrible, terrible mistake. These facts will remain an open sore in our history unless they get resolved. They need to be heard, they need to be aired, and somebody needs to make a decision on whether they’re true or false. Some court’s going to have to have the courage to make that decision.”
To the disappointment of many, that court was not SCOTUS, which said in rejecting the suit: “The State of Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot.”
Justices Alito and Thomas were the only two Supremes who voted to hear the case, while Trump appointees Gorsuch, Barrett and Kavanaugh simply said no with the other seven.
In response, President Trump said this morning, “The Supreme Court had ZERO interest in the merits of the greatest voter fraud ever perpetrated on the United States of America. All they were interested in is ‘standing’, which makes it very difficult for the President to present a case on the merits. 75,000,000 votes!”
I think everyone can understand the President’s frustration here. Trump attorney Jenna Ellis pointed out that SCOTUS is not supposed to decline to hear a case of original jurisdiction — when one state sues another — and that claiming that states don’t have standing to do just that is “a ridiculous political posture.”
And what on earth does SCOTUS mean by not “judicially cognizable”? Is it not “self-evident” — to borrow a term from the Declaration of Independence — that everyone, not just in Texas but in the entire United States of America, is harmed by allowing a fraudulent election to stand? Any American citizen should be able to file suit in federal court against those states that allowed ballot-stuffing and electronic voter fraud to disenfranchise the rest of us. After all, we all have to live with the results.
As far as where the legal team will go from here, Giuliani said, “The president’s reaction is to look at other options. I mean, … originally, we thought about this as possibly four or five separate cases. So that is the option we are going to have to go to. There’s nothing that prevents us from filing these cases immediately in the district court in which the president, of course, would have standing, some of the electors would have standing in that their constitutional rights have been violated. … We’re not finished. Believe me.”
In addition to cases that will be filed by the Trump legal team, there are a number of other cases already filed on behalf of people from within those key swing states whose “standing” is not in question. They are claiming that their rights were violated by the failure of state officials to carry out a free and fair election according to the laws set out by that state’s own legislature.
One such set of lawsuits has been filed by the great Sidney Powell, who last night tweeted out: “Pay attention! We made emergency filings in the Supreme Court tonight for Georgia and Michigan. Will be filing Arizona and Wisconsin shortly. These cases raise constitutional issues and prove massive fraud. Our plaintiffs have standing. We the People will not allow rigged elections.”
Lin Wood and others also have lawsuits pending in state and federal courts. Today, for example, the Wisconsin Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case on whether laws enacted by the state legislature were followed.
Each and every one of these cases and hearings is an opportunity to bring to light more cases of voter fraud, many of which will be added to the ongoing lawsuits, and help to show that the election was stolen.
One point that the Texas lawsuit brought to light, for example, was the hyper-improbability of the “midnight express” ballots that flooded into Philadelphia, Atlanta, Detroit, and Milwaukee counting centers the night after the election. A statistical analysis included in the suit calculated that there was only a 1 in a quadrillion chance — that means, in layman’s terms, not a snowball’s chance in hell — that this happened without massive fraud.
The other thing the Texas lawsuit did was force politicians at all levels of government, and the states themselves, to declare themselves. Much like the line in the sand that Colonel Travis drew in the courtyard of the Alamo, it divided those who were willing to fight for the survival of our constitutional republic from those who wanted to flee.
Now we know who really represents the 75 million plus citizens of the United States who voted for President Trump. They are the 126 members of Congress who signed a letter in support of Texas, along with the 17 states which did the same.
The battle lines have been formed.
As for Trump himself, he says he says that he will carry on. “The Supreme Court let us down! No Wisdom, No Courage! So, you’re the President of the United States, and you just went through an election where you got more votes than any sitting President in history, by far — and you purportedly lost … A Rigged Election, fight on!”
And then there’s this, from this morning: “WE HAVE JUST BEGUN TO FIGHT!”
His words echo those of Revolutionary War hero John Paul Jones who, when asked to surrender, replied: “I have not yet begun to fight!”
It’s not over until it’s over.

lifesitenews--2020-12-12--Yes, Bill Gates said that. Here’s the proof

December 12 , 2020 ( Children ’ s Health Defense ) — Some chiseler altered Bill Gates ’ June 2020 TED Talk to edit out his revealing prediction that we will all soon need digital vaccine passports ( slide 1 ) .
But after considerable effort , we tracked down the original video ( slide 2 ) .
Gates ’ minions on cable and network news , his public broadcasting , social media and fact-checker toadies all now insist that Gates never said such things .
They say he never intended to track and trace us with subdermal chips or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as “ conspiracy theories.
” Well , here it is from the horse ’ s mouth .
In 2019 , according to a not-yet-purged Scientific American article , Gates commissioned the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to build an injectable quantum dot dye system to tattoo stored medical info beneath children ’ s skin .
The tattoo was designed to be readable by an iPhone app .
Gates ’ company , Microsoft , has patented a sinister technology that uses implanted chips with sensors that will monitor body and brain activity .
It promises @ @ @ @ @ @ @ payments when they perform assigned activities .
Gates also invested approximately $ 20 million in MicroCHIPS , a company that makes chip-based devices , including birth-control implant chips with wireless on/off switches for remote-controlled drug-delivery by medical authorities .
In July 2019 , months before the COVID pandemic , Gates bought 3.7M shares of Serco , a military contractor with U.S. and UK government contracts to track and trace pandemic infections and vaccine compliance .
To facilitate our transition to his surveillance society , Gates invested $ 1 billion in EarthNow , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ video surveillance satellites .
EarthNow will launch 500 satellites allowing governments and large enterprises to live-stream monitor almost every “ corner ” of the Earth , providing instantaneous video feedback with one-second delay .
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation also acquired 5.3 million shares of Crown Castle , which owns 5G spy antennas including more than 40,000 cell towers and 65,000 small cells .
Please make your own copy of these clips — as Gates ’ power to disappear inconvenient facts is expanding every digital day .

Concerns over the health and safety of the human test subjects in Pfizer's European COVID vaccine study have caused two eminent doctors to launch a petition calling for an immediate halt to those studies.
On December 1, 2020, Dr. Michael Yeadon, an ex chief of research at Pfizer and Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg, a lung specialist and former department head of public health lodged an appeal to the EMA, the European Medicine Agency responsible for approving drugs across the EU, asking them to suspend the ongoing Pfizer/BioNtech COVID vaccine study on BNT162b (EudraCT number 2020-002641-42).
LifeSite is joining Drs. Yeadon and Wodarg in their call for an immediate suspension of this study and we are encouraging people to co-sign their petition to the EMA which is to be found in the petition section on this page.
Please SIGN and SHARE this important petition, and then please contact the EMA at the address listed below, in the 'For More Information' section.
In their application to the EMA, Drs. Yeadon and Wodarg give the following reasons why the Pfizer study could pose dangers to the health and safety of the study participants:
First, the doctors say that the study design must be improved as the highly inaccurate PCR test is currently being used to detect the presence of COVID in the study participants. This means that the efficacy of the vaccine is in doubt. The doctors recommend changing from the PCR test to Sanger sequencing.
Second, and more important, the doctors advocate animal testing of the vaccine to exclude the possibility of the risks to the life and health of human participants from known side-effects of other similar studies on corona viruses.
These side-effects can include: an exaggerated immune response when the subject comes into contact with the "real world" virus; possible infertility of an "indefinite duration" for women; severe allergic responses to polyethylene glycol which is contained in the mRNA vaccine being tested by Pfizer; and, other latent, serious side effects which, because of the short duration of the study, may only become known well after the conclusion of the study.
Because of these unacceptable risks to the life and health of the Pfizer/BioNtech COVID vaccine study participants, we are joining with Drs. Yeadon and Wodarg as co-signers of their petition to the European Medicine Agency, asking for an immediate halt to these studies.
Thank you for SIGNING and SHARING, today!
And, after you have signed this petition, please send the sample email in the section below to the official European Medicine Agency email: [email protected]

Subject: Please act on the petition of Dr. Wodarg and Dr. Yeadon and stay the Phase III clinical trial(s) of BNT162b
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am hereby co-signing the petition of Dr. Wodarg and Dr. Yeadon to support their urgent request to stay the Phase III clinical trial(s) of BNT162b (EudraCT Number 2020-002641-42) and other clinical trials.

lifesitenews--2020-12-12--FDA approves emergency use of Pfizer vaccine tested on cell line of aborted baby

WASHINGTON , D.C. , December 12 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — The U.S. Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) announced Friday that it has approved the emergency use of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for individuals over 16 years of age .
Although the Pfizer vaccine was not developed using a cell line derived from an aborted baby , it was tested — that is , the laboratory phase which verifies the quality of the vaccine on cell tissues — using such a cell line , HEK-293 , reports Children of God for Life .
The U.S. government is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the two-shot Pfizer vaccine by March .
A shipment of about 2.9 million doses of the vaccine , which must be stored at a frigid -60 to -80 degrees Celsius , will be delivered around the United States over the next week , according to The New York Times .
It newspaper also reported that , according to an unnamed “ senior administration official , ” White House chief of staff Mark Meadows told FDA commissioner Dr. Stephen Hahn on Friday morning , in the words of the New York Times , “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if he didn ’ t get the emergency approval done on Friday.
” Hahn subsequently directed FDA vaccine regulators to issue an Emergency Use Authorization ( EUA ) for the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine by the end of Friday , stated the Times .
The FDA press release noted that “ the issuance of an EUA is different than an FDA approval ( licensure ) of a vaccine.
” The federal agency “ expects manufacturers whose COVID-19 vaccines are authorized under an EUA to continue their clinical trials to obtain additional safety and effectiveness @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” stated the release .
In contrast to Britian ’ s health regulators , the FDA took “ an unexpected step ” and left open the possibility that pregnant and breastfeeding women can take the vaccine , The New York Times noted , adding that the vaccine was not tested on pregnant and breastfeeding women .
Pfizer has to submit regular reports on the safety of the vaccine , including its use in pregnant women , it reported .
In the U.K. , government-produced safety instructions for the Pfizer vaccine state that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or breast-feeding mothers and children , and that women should avoid becoming pregnant for the first two months after their shots .
The Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine “ contains messenger RNA ( mRNA ) , which is genetic material , ” the FDA release explained .
“ The vaccine contains a small piece of the SARS-CoV-2 virus ’ s mRNA that instructs cells in the body to make the virus ’ s distinctive ‘ spike ’ protein .
When a person receives this vaccine , their body produces copies of the spike protein , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ triggers the immune system to learn to react defensively , producing an immune response against SARS-CoV-2.
” An FDA “ Fact sheet for recipients and caregivers ” lists a number of possible side effects of the vaccine , including tiredness , headache , fever , chills , and muscle pain , and also notes that there “ is remote chance ” the vaccine “ could cause a severe allergic reaction.
” Moreover , “ these may not be all the possible side effects ” of the vaccine , according to the fact sheet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may occur .
Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine is still being studied in clinical trials.
” The United States has now joined Canada , the U.K. , Bahrain , Saudi Arabia and Mexico in approving the Pfizer two-dose vaccine .
However , the FDA announcement comes amid rising concerns over the speed at which the Covid-19 vaccine was produced and approved , and the potential for adverse effects .
French Professor Eric Caumes announced earlier this week that he has never seen as many undesirable effects with a vaccine as with the Pfizer injection that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ France starting in January .

Pfizer has to submit regular reports on the safety of the vaccine, including its use in pregnant women, it reported.

Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition **Photo credit: Shutterstock.com Mainstream media sources are promoting offensive suggestions by some doctors that people who refuse a vaccine for COVID-19 should be "punished" by the government and by business - effectively coercing them into taking the vaccine. One group of doctors writing in 'USA Today' suggested that the government impose special taxes (i.e., fines) on people who refuse the vaccination and that business simply refuse to serve them. [see story below]
Another doctor writing in an online publication called 'The Conversation' shamelessly suggested that people who refuse a vaccine should be given a psychoactive drug to induce compliance. [see story below] But, these suggestions are plain political posturing, and have nothing to do with science or with the recent trends of the disease. And, in case they haven't noticed, we live in a democracy not a medical dictatorship! Please SIGN this urgent petition which asks policy-makers and business people, at all levels, to pledge to respect the rights of those who, in good conscience, decide not to vaccinate themselves or their children. People should not have to live in fear of governmental or corporate retribution for refusing a vaccine which is being rushed to market by Big Pharma and their fellow-travelers in NGOs, like the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. It would be intolerable and immoral for the government or business to coerce someone, and their family, to take a COVID vaccine against their will to avoid a fine, or just so they can do their weekly grocery shopping. Medical freedom must be respected in principle and also in practice. So, it is now time that our policy-makers listen to all voices involved in this vital conversation, and start to represent those who will not tolerate being punished for refusing a vaccine. Simply put, legislatures must begin to act as legislatures again. Questions must be asked. Hearings and investigations must be held. And, the legislatures of each state and country must return to the business of representing the people who voted for them, assuming their rightful place as the originator of legislation. We can no longer accept the dictates of executive branches without question, especially now that, statistically speaking, the initial brunt of the COVID crisis has passed. Neither can we accept the dictates of doctors who seem detached from reality and from science, and who only seem to be attached to the idea of promoting ideas which contribute to the agrandizement of power and control of political interests, and wealth of those who stand to make a lot of money from the sale of a COVID vaccine. Please SIGN this urgent petition which asks government and business leaders to pledge to respect the rights of those who refuse a COVID vaccine, and not seek to punish them for doing so.

Deaths after taking the vaccine?
Significantly, Dr. Kelly Moore, associate director of the Immunization Action Coalition, told CNN last week nobody should be “surprised” to see reports of “multiple people dying” at long-term care facilities a day or two after having received the COVID vaccination, which has not been tested on the “frail elderly.”

Side effects during vaccine trial
Just days after Pfizer announced its new “90% effective” coronavirus vaccine in November, reports emerged about “severe” side effects volunteers for the vaccine trial experienced, including fevers and headaches.
Also in November, a group of doctors from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) told the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that they must give advance warning of the potentially serious side effects associated with receiving a new coronavirus vaccine, and that getting the vaccine “will not be a walk in the park.”

lifesitenews--2020-12-12--Cdl. Müller on McCarrick’s legacy: Pro-abortion politicians are not denied Holy Communion

LifeSiteNews is facing increasing censorship .
Click HERE to sign up to receive emails when we add to our video library .
December 12 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — It is blasphemy for pro-abortion Catholic politicians to receive Holy Communion , and that bishops and priests are not refusing them the Eucharist is part of the legacy of disgraced former cardinal Theodore McCarrick , said German Cardinal Gerhard Müller .
The one-time head of the Vatican ’ s powerful Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith ( CDF ) , Müller discussed with LifeSite ’ s John-Henry Westen the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ McCarrick , whose swift fall in 2018 came after decades of homosexual predations , all the while wielding power and influence in the Church .
Among the damage , and of particular significance to the pro-life movement , was that McCarrick headed up a 2004 commission of American bishops to study the question of whether or not Catholic pro-abortion politicians should be denied Holy Communion , Westen noted .
“ Rome intervened , ” he said , when then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger as head of the CDF sent the bishops the letter “ Worthiness @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stated that pro-abortion Catholic politicians must be denied the Eucharist .
However , when McCarrick received it , “ he hid it from the rest of [ the ] bishops , and in fact , he falsely said that the Vatican was fine with bishops themselves deciding on the question , ” Westen said .
Müller reiterated in his response that pro-abortion Catholic politicians can not receive Holy Communion .
“ Nobody can accept full communion with Jesus Christ , a sacramental Communion , if you are in the basic moral things absolutely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” he told Westen .
“ You can not say to Jesus , ‘ Lord , Lord , ’ … and on the other hand not to do His will , ” he added .
“ That is a contradiction , and you can not follow this contradiction in the receiving of the Holy Sacrament .
That is what John Paul II and Cardinal Ratzinger , in this time , they were saying , this is [ the ] basis of our Catholic faith , the link between your life and your faith.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ and bishops must have the courage to refuse a pro-abortion public figure Holy Communion , no matter how high-profile he or she may be .
“ Everybody is equal before God , and they are not princes or presidents or emperors or kings , ” said Müller .
St. Ambrose of Milan told “ the powerful Emperor Theodosius , you can not kill and come to Holy Communion .
He excommunicated him .
This was courage , ” he pointed out .
“ We must also … in our times say very clearly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kill persons and if you are continuing so , you can not receive the Holy Communion and if you receive the Holy Communion this is blasphemy ’ , ” the cardinal added .
Hiding the CDF letter was just part of the harm McCarrick caused the Church , Müller said .
“ I think the former Cardinal McCarrick made several big damages against the Catholic Church , not only in the States but all over the world , ” with “ problems he provoked with his life against the commandments of God.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith is only one part of his dishonest behavior and his damaging as a judge making his own politics , ” Müller observed .
“ He was more linked to politicians and to power than to [ the ] truth of the Catholic faith and that is very , very sad.
” “ I don ’ t want to be [ the ] public accuser of him ; I will speak only about these facts and about the effects of his behavior , ” added the cardinal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ alone can judge him , and we are not judges of other people , but we [ have the ] full right to speak of the negative effects for the Catholic Church.
” Westen and Müller also discussed Pope Francis ’ call to vice president and pro-abortion Catholic Joe Biden after the U.S. election , even though the electoral college will cast the deciding vote only on Monday .
The Vatican reported that the two men spoke about climate change but not abortion , Westen noted .
“ Therefore , I hope that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , that it is very important , not a matter of politics but a matter of morals and the basis of our anthropology … Everybody gets his rights from God , and no one has the right to kill another person , ” he said .
“ A politician who names himself a believing Catholic , he can not go into politics promoting abortion as a human right , because as Pope Francis says , it ’ s killing a person , a living person , ” he noted .
“ You can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the other side , they are not doing enough for the immigrants and therefore we can counterbalance with this , ’ that ’ s not the order , ” Müller added .
“ The basics of human rights is the right to live , and the other points are coming later.
” The “ most important thing is to speak of God , [ of ] Jesus Christ as the Savior of everybody , of eternal life , ” said the cardinal .
“ Jesus didn ’ t found the Church for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ importance , but of the main importance , and that is [ that ] everybody will live in grace and will come to eternal life , ” Müller said .
“ That is the mission of the Catholic Church , and the Pope and the bishops … have this mission by means of their sacramental ordination , to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to mediate the grace in the sacraments .
”

PETITION UPDATE (3/15/21) -
Reports suggest that the U.S. Catholic Bishops' Conference (USCCB) is preparing a vote on what to do about pro-abortion Joe Biden (and, presumably, other abortion-promoting politicians) who continues to present himself (themselves) for Holy Communion.
Public excommunication would be a suitable response for Biden's obstinate, public and grave sin of scandalously promoting abortion.
Please continue to SIGN and SHARE this important petition.
__________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (2/4/20)
Since Joe Biden was sworn-in on the 20th of January, he has wasted no time in signing Executive Orders to destroy the protections which former President Trump offered to the unborn and to the innocence and modesty of children of the United States.
In one executive order, Biden rescinded the Mexico City Policy prohibiting the federal government from spending taxpayer monies on abortion and the promotion of abortion.
And, in another executive order, Biden seeks to force girls' athletic programs, restrooms, and locker rooms to accept gender-confused males.
Since the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops was shamefully silent throughout the presidential campaign on the pre-eminent issues of abortion and gender ideology, and what Biden vowed he would do as president, it is cold comfort that their pro-life office is now speaking up about this Administration's wilful disregard for human life and for God's design of human nature (i.e., two biological sexes).
Stated plainly, Joe Biden is as bad as he said he would be, and the bishop, acting in unison (as the USCCB) have an obligation to the Lord (first) and to the faithful (second) to refuse Holy Communion to this grave public sinner.
With all due respect to these bishops, they diminish the Holy Eucharist and their high office, as well as cause grave scandal to the faithful, by dialoguing with a man who is promoting mass murder of the unborn against the constant teaching of the Church.
A man who continues to use the church as a backdrop for statements about how "Catholic/religious" he is, but, at the same time, is now doing everything in his power to protect the murder of the innocent, needs to publicly repent before dialogue can begin.
The bishops should not dialogue with or congratulate someone who has publicly betrayed the Church's teaching and who is leading others astray.
It's an embarrassment and a scandal for the bishops to continue to allow him to receive Holy Communion.
Please SIGN and SHARE this petition today!
________________________________________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (12/10/20)
Prior to the election on November 3, the U.S. bishops did not address Joe Biden’s anti-Catholic position regarding faith and morals as a unified body.
The USCCB, the organization to which every U.S. bishop belongs and which is staffed and led by bishops, remained disgracefully silent in the run-up to the election.
What were the bishops afraid of, losing their charitable tax status with the IRS, or being deprived of fat checks from the HHS (immigration programs) and USAID (foreign aid programs)?
Or, were they just too cowardly to clearly declare Christ's law to be above man's law and risk the ire of a Joe Biden as president?
Either way, the bishops’ lack of clarity in this regard is a terrible scandal in itself and probably greatly contributed to the possible election of a pro-abortion, anti-Catholic Catholic to the presidency.
Given the fact that exit polling shows Catholics split their vote 50-50 for Trump and Biden, even a slight deviation in the heavily-Catholic swing-states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania could have produced different results.
The bishops could have spoken out against Biden’s pro-abortion stance collectively, but, again, they were overwhelmingly and shamefully silent.
Because of this, they will be at least partly responsible for the policies advanced by a Biden administration, in the event that Biden is sworn into office.
However, the bishops can, even now, mitigate the damage done by their inaction by taking the following steps: 1) Speak with one voice, as the USCCB, and plainly condemn Biden's pro-abortion stance; 2) Publicly advise Biden not to present himself for Holy Communion because of his scandalous position on abortion and homosexual "marriage;" and, 3) Tell Biden to publicly repent of publicly promoting the wilfull murder of the preborn, sins against nature, and diminishing the natural family.
Thankfully, some individual bishops have spoken out forcefully on Biden's scandalous behavior, and his standing in the Church.
On November 9, Archbishop Strickland of Tyler, Texas tweeted: “A dark cloud has descended on this nation when the USCCB and Planned Parenthood speak in unison in support of a Biden-Harris administration that supports the slaughter of innocents by abortion for all 9 months of pregnancy.”
Additionally, Archbishop Samuel Aquila of Denver, Colorado and Archbishop Charles Chaput have both declared publicly that Joe Biden “should not receive Holy Communion."
But, to add insult to injury, Cardinal Wilton Gregory of Washington, D.C. has said that he will give Holy Communion to Biden because “it’s a matter of the responsibility that I have as the archbishop to be engaged and to be in dialogue with him, even in those areas where we obviously have some differences.”
And, Bishop W. Francis Malooly of Wilmington, Delaware and Bishop McElroy of San Diego also congratulated Biden in statements, but they have not indicated whether or not they would administer Holy Communion to him.
With all due respect to these bishops, they diminish the Holy Eucharist and their high office, as well as cause grave scandal to the faithful, by dialoguing with a man who is promoting mass murder of the unborn against the constant teaching of the Church.
A man who uses the church as a backdrop to make sickening political advertisements about how "Catholic/religious" he is, but, at the same time, says that he will do everything in his power to protect the murder of the innocent, needs to publicly repent before dialogue can begin.
The bishops should not dialogue with or congratulate someone who has publicly betrayed the Church's teaching and who is leading others astray.
It's an embarrassment and a scandal for the bishops to continue to allow him to receive Holy Communion.

PETITION UPDATE (9/29/20)
Cardinal Raymond Burke has stated that Democratic candidate Joe Biden should not receive Holy Communion because of his support for abortion.
In an interview for Thomas McKenna's Catholic Action for Faith and Family podcast, Cardinal Burke states the following (starting around 5:00):
First of all, I would tell him [Biden] not to approach to receive Holy Communion, out of charity toward him, because that would be a sacrilege and endanger the salvation of his own soul.
But, also, he should not approach to receive Holy Communion because he gives scandal to everyone, because if someone says, 'I'm a devout Catholic," and, at the same time is promoting abortion, it gives the impression to others that it's acceptable for a Catholic to be in favor of abortion.
Of course, it's absolutely not acceptable, and never has been, and never will be.
We give thanks for Cardinal Burke's frankness and clarity. And, we call on every U.S. Catholic bishop to follow Cardinal Burke's lead and call out Joe Biden for his bloody-minded hypocrisy on the issue of abortion.
To reiterate: You cannot be a Catholic and support abortion.
Thank you for continuing to sign this urgent petition.
___________________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (8/17/20)
The Democratic presidential candidate, Joe Biden, keeps claiming to be Catholic but has said he will do everything in his power to support abortion.
And, with his pick of California Senator Kamala Harris as his running mate, Biden has just cemented abortion into the Democrats' 2020 presidential ticket.
Indeed, Harris is vehemently pro-abortion.
During her time as attorney general of California, Harris played a key role in defending Planned Parenthood over its sale of aborted baby parts (which violated multiple federal laws, according to undercover video of abortion industry personnel).
And, last year, Harris unveiled a plan to essentially force pro-life states to seek permission from the federal government before pro-life laws can take effect.
Additionally, Harris has dangerous views on religious liberty and freedom of speech.
Harris displayed anti-Catholic bigotry in the confirmation hearings of Judge Brian Buescher. Harris cited his membership in the “all-male society” the Knights of Columbus and its stances against abortion and same-sex “marriage” as grounds for rejecting Buescher for a federal district court in Nebraska.
And, David Daleiden, head of the pro-life investigative group Center for Medical Progress, wrote that from his firsthand experience, he considers Harris the “greatest threat to First Amendment civil rights our country has ever seen.”
Joe Biden has seriously erred by taking on Kamala Harris as his running mate, further distancing himself from the truths of the Catholic Faith, especially that every life is sacred from conception till natural death.

And, please continue to SIGN and SHARE this petition.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Of course, these two things are incompatible: you cannot be Catholic and pro-abortion.
And, a "Catholic" politician's responsibility in this regard is absolute: On pain of serious sin, he or she can never promote abortion because abortion is the wilful murder of innocent preborn human beings, and also because doing so causes grave scandal to the Church and the faithful.
Please SIGN this urgent petition asking the bishops of the United States to refuse to give Holy Communion to Joe Biden until he publicly repents from his scandalous promotion of abortion.
Biden recently promised to “codify Roe v. Wade” as president, adding, "my Justice Department will do everything in its power to stop the rash of state laws that so blatantly violate a woman’s protected, constitutional right to choose."
And, since starting his latest run for the presidency, Biden also flip-flopped against the Hyde Amendment, saying that he would allow federal funds to be spent on abortion - a position he claimed to be against for more than 40 years.
In short, Joe Biden will do everything in his power to enable and defend the wilful murder of innocent preborn human beings.
So, this should not be a hard decision for our U.S. bishops. In fact, in another circumstance, it was already done by an Illinois bishop.
Indeed, Bishop Paprocki, of Springfield, Illinois, invoked Canon 915 of the Code of Canon Law to withdraw Holy Communion from two Illinois state politicians who had worked to enact radical new abortion legislation in 2019.
Canon 915 states: "Those who have been excommunicated or interdicted after the imposition or declaration of the penalty and others obstinately persevering in manifest grave sin are not to be admitted to Holy Communion."
Of course, no-one, least of all the bishops, wants anyone to be deprived of Holy Communion.
A politician who publicly and obstinately advocates for the murder of innocent preborn babies puts himself out-of-communion with the Church and her teaching.
Pro-abortion politicians should not think that they can advocate for the murder of the unborn and receive the Body of Christ at the same time. This would be to defile the Eucharist while giving scandal to the faithful.
Depriving politicians of Holy Communion is not just meant to prevent scandal; it is also designed to bring a grave public sinner to repentance. In this way, such an action is meant to be for the good of their souls, too.
Thank you for SIGNING this urgent petition which calls on the U.S. Catholic bishops to refuse to admit Joe Biden to Holy Communion until he publicly repents from his scandalous promotion of abortion.
