Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) explained last week while giving an address at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s “Road to Majority” conference that the Republican Party does not want to implement pro-life solutions. Paul explained how his amendment to de-fund Planned Parenthood in 2018 was rejected by Republican leadership because they prioritized massive government spending over protecting life. “You have Republicans that are more concerned with spending money than protecting the unborn,” Paul said to the audience. The Republican leaders wanted to curry favor with the Democrats in order to pass a bill to further add to the debt and deficit, and they protected Planned Parenthood to create a bipartisan consensus by the profligacy.

Paul explained how the Washington D.C. swamp works: “Last year, I tried to attach to a spending bill a prohibition to have any money spent by Planned Parenthood. You know what happened? They sat me down, and one of the senior Republican senators said, “We cannot have the vote today.” I said, “Why?” He said, “We might win.”’ Paul’s amendment, had it been passed, would have cut off federal funds from Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers and given federal funds instead to community health centers that do not perform abortions to provide care. His comments can be viewed here: Paul’s comments certainly explain why Republicans always pay lip service to the issue of life on the campaign trail, but rarely do anything to protect it after they are elected into office. Right-to-life is an invaluable wedge issue to use as a fundraising tool, and the GOP intends to prevent a workable solution so they can continue using it as such.

Its real simple folks. The GOP is controlled by the globalists. The globalists want abortion, and they want increased Fed Spending, increased Fed Debt !! WE ARE BEING SCAMMED !!!!
The Republicans talk a good game, but when push comes to shove, they will always back down. Vic has been saying this for year at this site.
The fake Christians don't mind it when a (R)epublican president signs onto funding Planned Parenthood and selling the fresh dead baby parts. Hillary would have done the same.
One of the key reasons I am not a Republican is that they are utter liars, frauds. Democrats are unabashedly pro-abortion. Republicans actually gave us abortion through the Supreme Court, and keep it in place, but dupe the rubes and get their votes by pretending they are pro-life.
