“I turned my life around. I have completely redeemed my life,” Angela Stanton-King, Candidate for US Congress
Angela Stanton-King
Carlos Garcia writes for The Blaze. Voices for Life shares his report on Alveda King’s goddaughter, Angela Stanton-King who is running against Rep. John Lewis (D), Georgia She opposes the Democrat’s pro-abortion policies.
“I turned my life around. I have completely redeemed my life,” Stanton-King said. “This A former reality show celebrity and author who was pardoned by President Donald Trump will face one of his loudest foes in Congress as she runs to replace Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.).
Stanton-King was convicted in 2004 on charges related to a car theft ring and she spent more than two years in prison for the crime, according to the Atlanta-Journal Constitution.
The president pardoned her in February.
“Today, (Stanton-King) is a national best-selling author, widely acclaimed television personality, and proponent of criminal justice reform,” read a statement from the White House.
“She works tirelessly to improve reentry outcomes for people returning to their communities upon release from prison, focusing on the critical role of families in the process. This pardon is supported by Alveda King,” the statement added.
Stanton-King is the goddaughter of Alveda King, the pro-life activist.
The best-selling author said that she respects Lewis’ record of fighting for Civil Rights, but she opposes the Democratic party’s pro-abortion policies.
“I have the utmost respect for the contributions that he has made to black America,” Stanton-King said, “However, this isn’t the Selma bridge, and our babies are dying. It is time for war.”
Lewis has also been an outspoken opponent of Trump, and went as far as boycotting a Civil Rights event in 2017 because the president would be in attendance as well.
“This isn’t about replacing John Lewis, this is about picking up the torch and continuing the fight for Justice,” she tweeted.
Len Deane is a staunch supporter of the sanctity of life, especially unborn babies. He tells his personal story of his mother’s decision to chose life for him against the advice of her doctor to abort him.
My Family and Friends, I wanted to share with you why I’m passionate and committed to speak and work on behalf of the unborn. As a young boy, age 11, I asked my mom “what is abortion?” I guess she explained it to me that some mommies don’t want their babies and they are aborted. And then she told me a story about my birth.
My sister was born 10 months before my birth and the doctor told my mom that she should have an abortion, because the baby (Len) may not live or would not be very healthy. My mom rejected the doctors advise and I was born on July 29 1941. I wasn’t a real healthy baby and the doctor told my mom, I would have a very short life.
Well 78 1/2 years later, I’m a healthy “old man” with two wonderful adult children (Holly Lynn and Brian Allan) and three incredible healthy, beautiful and intelligent grandchildren (Arbour Leigh, Quinn Caroline and Ethan John). Abortion affects generations to come; in my case two children and three grandchildren.
The word of God is clear: Proverbs 24:11-12 “Rescue those who are being taken away to death; hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter…” Psalm 139:13-16 “For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made…” Isaiah 49:1 “…Before I was born the Lord called me; from my mother’s womb he has spoken my name.”
I’m asking you to join me as we fight for the life of the unborn in our community, schools, colleges and the market place. This is why I can’t support pro-abortion candidates. Below…2020 Democrat Presidential Candidates position on abortion.
Blogger’s note: Below are current Democrat presidential candidates and those who have recently withdrawn form the race. It’s important to note that everyone holds extreme views on abortion.
Nancy Pelosi and Democrats Defeat Bill to Stop Infanticide, Care for Babies Born Alive After Abortions – “The blocking of a vote on a bill to stop infanticide come even as national polling hows Americans — including people who are “pro-choice” on abortion — oppose abortion up to birth and infanticide.” Life News report about Nancy Pelosi’s remarks on thedefeat of infanticide bill
Mike Bloomberg Told Pregnant Employee to Get Rid of Her Baby in an Abortion: Just “Kill It” – “Bloomberg, who was the Mayor of New York 2002-2013, is known for his extreme pro-abortion stance. In recent years he donated $250,000 to the abortion giant, Planned Parenthood. He has also supported the censorship of pro-life groups.” Life News article on Mike Bloomberg’s supportof abortion and Planned Parenthood
Joe Biden Will Force Americans to Fund Abortions and Planned Parenthood’s Abortion Agenda – “Biden will repeal the Hyde Amendment and use executive action to on his first day in office withdraw the Mexico City ‘global gag rule’ and Donald Trump’s Title X restrictions,” Life News article regarding Joe Biden’s proposedpro-abortion actions
The Democratic Party has grown increasingly radical and out of touch with most voters on abortion. The party platform supports abortion without limits and calls to force taxpayers to pay for them.
Below is a Life News report by Micaiah Bilger. She covered remarks from Vice President Mike Pence condemning Democrats for “refusing to protect babies still in their mother’s womb”
Vice President Mike Pence denounced Democrats this week for rejecting bills to protect babies from abortion and infanticide.
“As Republicans continue to support important pro-life policies, Democrats are bowing to the most radical elements of their party & refusing to protect babies still in their mother’s womb,” Pence wrote Tuesday on Twitter.
Because of Democrat lawmakers’ love affair with the billion-dollar abortion industry, the U.S. Senate narrowly blocked two pro-life bills Tuesday that would have banned late-term abortions and provided protections for infants who survive them.
The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act and the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act both failed to obtain the 60 votes necessary to overcome Democrats’ filibuster.
Pence slammed Democrats for opposing such basic, common-sense protections for babies during a speech Tuesday in Michigan, The Oakland Press reports.
“Democrats in the Senate actually voted down legislation that would protects the lives of children that survived abortions,” he said. “I’m proud to serve as vice president to a president who stands for the right to life. He’s the most Pro-Life president in American history.”
He welcomed all pro-life Americans to join the Republican Party, responding to Democrat leaders growing rejection of pro-life voters.

“President @realDonaldTrump is the most pro-life President in our Nation’s history & our Administration will always fight for the innocent lives of the unborn,” Pence added on Twitter.
The Democratic Party has grown increasingly radical and out of touch with most voters on abortion. The party platform supports abortion without limits and calls to force taxpayers to pay for them.
All of the top Democratic presidential candidates also support abortions through all nine months of pregnancy and want to force taxpayers to pay for them. Two of the candidates, Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg, recently even refused to welcome pro-life Democrats into the party.

This week, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops also released a series of videos to encourage Catholics to vote pro-life. The bishops urged voters to make protections for unborn babies a “preeminent priority” at the voting booth this fall.
It’s no secret that the Democrat party supports abortion. In their 2016 platform, they included language supported extreme measures such as: no limits on abortion up to the third trimester and taxpayer-funded abortions. Below is an urgent report from the US Conference of Catholic Bishops posted in Life News and authored by Micaiah Bilger,
Frustration with the Democratic Party’s extreme pro-abortion agenda is growing.
On Wednesday, Rhode Island Catholic Bishop Thomas Tobin joined a crowd of voices in questioning the party’s allegiance to the abortion industry, rather than its own voters, Breitbart reports.
“As the presidential primary shifts to New England, it’s sad to note that all of the major Democratic candidates are pro-abortion, supporting even partial-birth abortion,” Tobin wrote Wednesday on Twitter.
Nearly 1 million unborn babies are aborted every year in America, and Democrat political leaders are pushing for more. All of the top Democratic presidential candidates support abortions without restriction through all nine months of pregnancy and want to force taxpayers to pay for them. Some candidates even have refused to welcome pro-life Democrats into their so-called party of inclusion.
This radical pro-abortion stance is alienating voters, and pro-life leaders who are Democrats have been vocal about their disgust with the party for ignoring Democrat voters’ opinions and advocating for the billion-dollar abortion industry’s agenda instead.
“Where are pro-life Democrats supposed to turn? Or are pro-life voters not welcome in the Democratic party?” Tobin asked Wednesday.
The Democratic Party platform does not even align with moderate voters. In 2012, party leaders removed the word “rare” from the abortion platform, and, in 2016, added language calling for taxpayer-funded abortions. The platform does not support any limits on abortion, even in the third trimester when babies are viable.
Polls consistently show that most Americans, including a large number of Democrats, do not support such extremes. A recent Gallup poll found that 59 percent of Democrats want at least some restrictions on abortion and 29 percent identify as pro-life.
Kristen Day, executive director of Democrats for Life of America, has threatened to withdraw support from candidates who would exclude pro-life Democrats from the party.
In a recent exchange between Pete Buttigieg and Kristen Day of Democrats for Life, the presidential candidate admitted the pro-life position was not welcome in the Democrat party. Below is a report from Thomas Williams, Ph. posted in Breitbart News about this encounter and its ramifications.
“We’ve had enough,” Ms. Day told Catholic News Agency (CNA) this week following an encounter with presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg who said he would be willing to live without the support of pro-life voters in order to maintain his total support for abortion-on-demand.
As Breitbart News reported, Buttigieg told Ms. Day that there is no room for the pro-life position in the Democrat Party and that he would never support any restrictions on abortion.
“I am pro-choice, and I believe that a woman ought to be able to make that decision,” Buttigieg said in a Fox News town hall in Iowa when questioned by Day regarding the party’s diversity and inclusion of pro-life people.
In her interview with CNA, Day expressed her dismay over the Democrats’ utter subservience to the abortion industry, noting that pro-life Democrats are simply “fed up.”
These presidential candidates “are so afraid of the abortion lobby” that they will make no room for pro-life Democrats, she said, because “they’re afraid that they’re going to lose all their money and support.”
“I just wanted to know if he [Buttigieg] thought there was room for us in the party. And he doesn’t,” she said.
Ms. Day said that pro-life Democrats need to show more muscle when dealing with the party leadership.
“We need pro-life Democrats all over the country to go to these candidates and ask the question: Do you want pro-life Democrats in the party? Because if not, we won’t vote for you,” she said.
Day also told CNA that Democratic activists are very vocal about their support for abortion but do not faithfully represent the rank-and-file, which is more divided on the issue.
When it comes down to the details of abortion policy, many Democrats cannot be classified as “pro-abortion,” she said.
While many describe themselves as pro-choice, regarding legal abortion for all nine months of pregnancy or the removal of safety regulations of abortion clinics, “when it comes right down to it, most people agree with me,” Day said.
The party’s “abortion extremism,” she said, “is not going to be a good long-term strategy for them.”
Ms. Day had already condemned her party’s radical pro-abortion platform prior to the 2016 presidential elections, which saw pro-abortion Hillary Clinton defeated by Donald Trump.
Day said that some Democrats had phoned her to say they would not vote for Hillary Clinton because of her extreme pro-abortion stance.
“This platform’s language just says (to pro-lifers) you are no longer welcome,” Ms. Day said at the time. “This has been the general message pro-life Democrats are receiving across the country.”
The following is from Deep Roots at Home blogger Alli. She writes a very lengthy expose’ regarding the Girl Scouts and how they are connected with Planned Parenthood especially with Girl Scout Cookie Season upon us.
Revealing the background of the Girl Scouts is like peeling an onion–each layer exposes a different “truth”. Lots of troops DON’T follow this doctrine. Good for them! But a portion of their Girl Scout cookies sales still gets kicked to corporate, and they very clearly DO follow this doctrine.
“Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.” ~Ephesians 5:11
Sales of Girl Scout cookies are under-way, and it is time to expose what the dollars that are earned from their sales really goes to. Please be aware that some of what is exposed here will shock and disturb you!
I’ve reached out to several women I know and trust who have been involved with or are currently involved with Girl Scouts of the USA. None of these women were aware of the master plan of the WAGGGS and GSUSA agenda.
Unlike Colorado’s new transgender troops, my relatively conservative mountain town has not yet experienced the symptoms of the liberal ideals espoused by the GSUSA. These women were certainly unaware that millions of dollars, including their daughter’s dues and Girl Scout cookies funds, are being paid to the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts to provide for their comprehensive sexual freedom education, abortion protection, and sexual rights for youth advocacy.
These mothers were not informed that their daughters were enrolled to promote “safe” sexual promiscuity, “guiltless” sexual immorality, “responsibility-free” pregnancy, “inconsequential” sexual exploration and murder of the innocent unborn.
Girl Scouts is an organization that promises to promote honesty and courage, responsibility and charity, yet the soul of the organization is Godless and vile. How can we continue support of an organization run and operated by abortionists and homosexuals intent on programming our youth to accept these atrocities as “rights?” How can we continue to encourage our children to emulate the values these pro-abortion, pro-LGBT adults actively fight to enforce? How can we offer our young girls to a society of role models who have made careers of promoting and fundraising the pro-choice, pro-homosexuality, anti-Christ movement?
As Christians, the truth is simple. We can’t.
We cannot endorse an organization that has such a wretched center. We cannot commend an institution that refuses to protect parental rights and the innocence of youth. We cannot be enticed by the promises of character-building as we clearly see the wolf’s eyes peering out through the feigned fleece.
GIRL SCOUTS USA REVEALED
32 REASONS NOT TO BUY GIRL SCOUT COOKIES
The Planned Parenthood Federation of America is signaling its intention to dominate the national sex education agenda:

FIGHT OR FLIGHT
“Train up a child the way the way she should go, and when she is older she will not depart from it.” ~Proverbs 22:6
As Christians and as parents it is our responsibility to ensure that our children are in the world but not of it. We are to protect their innocence and promote Godly values. We need to protect the sanctity of life and the beauty of sexual morality. We need to either take a stand and fight for real purity and honest integrity within the Girl Scouts and its chosen affiliates or we need to remove our devotion and dedication to the Godless entity.
So are your Girl Scout cookie cravings under control? What will you allow to fill your spirit, mind, and body?
“They enjoyed the sweet taste of wickedness, letting it melt under their tongue.“ ~Job 20:12

Former Clinic Director of Planned Parenthood: AbbyJohnson.org
The talk of the town in the past two days has been Michelle Williams. Truthfully, Rick Gervais deserves a Golden Globe for his epic speech to scare the elite liberals of Hollywood.
One speech that has offended many women that evening came from actress Michelle Williams. In her acceptance speech, she cowardly made the false correlation between her professional decisions and her personal decisions claiming that “Because as women and as girls, things can happen to our bodies that are not our choice.” She continues, “I’ve tried my very best to live a life of my own making and not just a series of events that happened to me, but one that I could stand back and look at and recognize my handwriting all over—sometimes messy and scrawling, sometimes careful and precise, but one that I had carved with my own hand. And I wouldn’t have been able to do this without employing a woman’s right to choose: to choose when to have my children, and with whom.”
Clearly, this line is in the guise of a woman’s right to choose an abortion to fulfill a selfish need. I beg to answer the question that has she ever met women who once had an abortion and later in life regretting that fateful decision that has left them scarred, broken, and filled with a hole in their heart.
Leah Darrow
A woman that I believe Williams can learn from is a former runway model who is now an evangelist and sought-after speaker, Leah Darrow. Like Williams, Darrow is a celebrity. She was a contestant for America’s Next Top Model. She recalled how she had a road to Damascus experience, which led her back to the Catholic Church. She shares more about it also in her ground-breaking book, The Other Side of Beauty.
After hearing about the news of Williams and ready to give birth to her fifth child, Leah took it to Instagram to slam Michelle Williams for not only her speech but also how being a mom does not keep women from achieving their dreams. Instead, Leah shares the fact that authentic womanhood makes women better moms every time they give their yes to life.
As of today, Leah is now a proud mom of five beautiful children and the wife of a veteran and firefighter. Leah’s “yes” can teach women that choosing to be a mother to one, two, or even fifteen children does not derail us from our dreams and ambitions. Rather, you are willing to sacrifice the things of the world for the sake of your salvation and your family.
The things of the world cannot help you make achievements. Instead, they leave a deeper hole in our hearts. God calls us to something that is bigger than what the world proposes. He calls us to love those around us and to sacrifice the things that give us pleasure for his greater glory.
On behalf of Voices for Life, we congratulate Leah Darrow and her family on the birth of Valor Joseph who was born on the feast of the epiphany. We thank you for your testimony and hope you inspire other women to follow Christ and her mother by saying “yes” to his will.
At 5:00 pm on October 27th, Justice Kennedy is receiving this prestigious award. The presenters of this award cite Kennedy’s decisive vote, on June 28, 1992 in Casey v. Planned Parenthood to keep killing children in the womb as a ‘constitutional right’ as a primary reason for this award. Kennedy’s decision has resulted in the intentional killing of millions of innocent children in the womb by abortion.
Thus, this award is a celebration of killing children n the womb by abortion. This award also celebrates Kennedy’s bizarre and deadly opinion in Casey that distorted liberty into license by arguing, ‘at the heart of liberty is the right to define one’s own concept of existence..,” which effectively means, Might makes Right. Christopher West’s devastating critique of Kennedy’s reasoning in Casey is available here.
This public witness will feature abortion victim photos, speeches and literature distribution.

Pro-Abortion PA Governor Tom Wolf and Former Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards Visit Warminster Planned Parenthood on April 20, 2017
Below are excerpts from a Health Department report from an on-site inspection at Planned Parenthood in Warminster, PA. This is public information. Thanks to a long time pro-life prayer warrior and sidewalk counselor for bringing this report to light.
Initial Comments: This report is the result of an unannounced onsite survey conducted on August 14, 2019, at Planned Parenthood Keystone – Warminster (PPKey – Warminster). It was determined the facility was not in compliance with the requirements of the Pennsylvania Department of Health’s Rules and Regulations for Ambulatory Care Facilities, Annex A, Title 28, Part IV, Subparts A and F, Chapters 551-573, November 1999.
Observations: Based on review of facility documents, medical records (MR) and staff interview (EMP), it was determined the facility failed to meet the minimum Medicare standard 416.47(b) Standard: Form and Content of Record for compliance, that is established by the facility’s accrediting organization by failing to ensure the name of the physician and dosage of medications administered for a paracervical block (regional anesthesia causing a loss of sensation in a region of the body which results from the injection of a local anesthetic on each side of the cervix) was documented for one of six surgical abortion medical records reviewed (MR6); failing to ensure the maximum recommended dose of Lidocaine (an anesthetic) was not exceeded when administered as a paracervical block for one of six surgical abortion medical records reviewed (MR10).

The following article was posted on Breitbart and authored by Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.
ROME — The bishop of Tyler, Texas, has praised a brother bishop for refusing to give Holy Communion to Catholic politicians who support abortion legislation.
In a tweet Monday, Bishop Joseph Strickland came out in support of Bishop Thomas Daly of Spokane, WA, in reaction to an article chronicling Bishop Daly’s hardline stance against pro-abortion politicians.
The article was titled: “Catholic Bishop Will Deny Pro-Abortion Politicians Communion Until They Repent of ‘Evil.’”
“Thank you bishop Daly for standing strong,” Bishop Strickland wrote. “Our society needs to wake up to the reality that when unborn & completely innocent children are not safe from their own mothers, life has no value and the tragic violence we see is simply a consequence of our disregard for life.”
“Efforts to expand access to abortion, allowing murder of children up to the moment of birth is evil,” Daly is quoted as saying earlier this year. “Children are a gift from God, no matter the circumstances of their conception. They not only have a right to life, but we as a society have a moral obligation to protect them from harm.”
“Politicians who reside in the Catholic Diocese of Spokane, and who obstinately persevere in their public support for abortion, should not receive Communion without first being reconciled to Christ and the Church,” he wrote.
“The Church’s commitment to the life of every human person from conception until death is firm. God alone is the author of life and for the civil government to sanction the willful murder of children is unacceptable. For a Catholic political leader to do so is scandalous,” the bishop stated.
At last spring’s annual meeting of the U.S. bishops in Baltimore, Bishop Strickland urged his brother bishops to be valiant in calling Catholic politicians to account.
“I would ask us all the question of how we can call our politicians that claim to be Catholic, that want to be part of the Catholic community, to faithful citizenship, because until we bring them into the truth and living it with all the challenges that we face, I think many of the faithful don’t really see a consistent message,” he said.
Bishop Strickland later explained his position to the National Catholic Register, underscoring the importance of non-negotiable life issues.
“What I really tried to say as I intervened and talked about the sanctity of human life from conception until natural death — those are the grave issues, as far as I’m concerned. That’s what we need to focus on,” he said.
