SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 2 EDITOR’S NOTE: There will no LOOP on Monday, September 4, in observance of Labor Day. Have a great weekend! BIDEN ADMIN TARGETS UNDERAGE GIRLS FOR ABORTIONS  The Department of Health and Human Services is giving $23 million dollars to several organizations, including the abortion provider Planned Parenthood, to promote abortions among minors. The new funding targets “youth in foster care, youth in juvenile justice, rural youth, expectant and parenting teens, [and] younger adolescents in middle school” – all young girls in vulnerable situations.  READ TED CRUZ BLASTS DOJ FOR TARGETING PRO-LIFERS  Sen. Ted Cruz, R-TX, called out the Biden Justice Department over its failure to prosecute pro-abortion attacks on pregnancy resource centers and its decision to instead go after the pro-life movement. “At least 88 crisis pregnancy centers have been firebombed, vandalized, or set ablaze in the wake of the Dobbs decision,” Cruz wrote. But the DOJ has “only prosecuted one FACE Act case against these criminals.”  READ DEVASTATING FIRE AT OREGON CHURCH WAS ARSON  A suspect is in custody for causing the fire that ravaged St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Salem, Oregon, this week. What began as a dumpster fire in the early hours of the morning of August 31 soon escalated, spreading to the roof of the church building. On the same day, the Salem Police Department announced the arrest of a suspect, Billy James Sweeten, in a statement shared with CatholicVote.  READ DISTRICT SETTLES WITH MOM AFTER ‘TRANSITIONING’ DAUGHTER  A California public school district awarded a $100,000 settlement to a single mother after she sued them for secretly “socially transitioning” her 11-year-old daughter to think of herself as a boy. “Parents, please be bold,” the mother said after winning the settlement. “Stand up for your children and fight for them. Fight for your rights.”  READ PARENTS OF MICHIGAN GIRLS SUE OVER ‘TRANS’ POLICY  The parents of four female students sued a Michigan school district for a pro-“trans” policy that allowed boys to use the girls’ bathroom at school. According to National Review, the suit accuses “the district, its superintendent, assistant superintendent, and two principals of seven civil rights and Title IX violations.”  READ DOJ HIDES RACHEL LEVINE INFO FROM LAWSUIT  The Biden administration moved to shield Rachel Levine from having to take part in an Alabama lawsuit over the state’s ban on so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors. Republican Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall had requested Levine’s records, since the Health Department official is “the leading public-facing official in the United States government when it comes to transitioning treatments for minors.”  READ JUDGE STRIKES DOWN LAW PROTECTING KIDS FROM PORN  A federal judge blocked Texas’ age-verification law for pornography, stating that it violated the First Amendment. The Thursday ruling struck the law down the day before it was to go into effect. “This is insane,” observed commentator Matt Walsh. “Every adult oriented product has age verification requirements. But if the same basic standard is applied to internet porn suddenly it’s a First Amendment violation?”  READ BIDEN USED PSEUDONYM TO DISCUSS WH HIRE WITH HUNTER  Then-Vice President Biden apparently used a pseudonym to discuss a future White House hire with his son, Hunter Biden, according to 2014 emails from Hunter’s laptop. In an email on June 23, 2014, Hunter emailed "Robin Ware" from his company email at Rosemont Seneca Partners. "Before you fill position pls talk to me----- J. McGrail very much wants to serve as detail fr treasury," Hunter wrote.  READ FIRST UNBORN CHILD TO BE BEATIFIED  On September 10, Pope Francis will beatify the Ulmas, a Polish family of nine who were murdered by the Nazis for hiding Jews. Their upcoming beatification bears a twofold significance for the Church: The Ulmas are not only the first family to be beatified together, but also their youngest child will be the first unborn baby to be directly honored in this way.  READ EXCAVATIONS FIND NO ‘MASS GRAVES’ IN CANADA  Two years after reports that there were mass graves of indigenous children on the properties of Catholic schools in Canada, excavations are finding no such graves. “Trudeau made Pope Francis apologize on behalf of the Catholic Church over these fake graves,” wrote Mary Margaret Olohan of The Daily Signal. “Around 56 Canadian Catholic Churches were vandalized and burned to the ground.”  READ LOOPCAST  A 7th-grader said “Don’t tread on me” and got kicked out of school for wearing a Gadsden flag on his backpack. Catholic lefties declare war on the most dangerous Catholic in America: Scott Hahn. And the LOOPcast dips its toe into the coffee wars: Is it a sin to buy from Starbucks?  WATCH WORKING FROM HOME WITH KIDS  Many of us spend a lot of time thinking about, discussing, striving for, and even fighting about work-life balance. And for those of us who work from home, there’s an even more immediate competition. But maybe “balance” is not the right word: it implies equal parts, and it also implies separation and compartmentalization. Here are four ways the two can actually come together and co-exist in peace.  READ LABOR DAY DESSERTS  Most likely, you’ll be throwing hot dogs and hamburgers on your grill this Labor Day Weekend. And that’s a tasty and easy way to feed a crowd. But you can really show the spirit of the day in your desserts.

Good news: Disney isn’t the only production studio out there. Here is a list of animated movies produced by Studio Ghibli, featuring the work of Hiyao Miyazaki. The movies are beautifully animated and positively feature family and communal life. Check it out!  READ SOULMATE vs. ‘ONLY ONE’ The concept of a soulmate, or the idea that there is one person out there who is “meant for you,” is super pervasive. If you don’t subscribe to this concept, you may still think it’s just a silly or sweet sentiment. But this idea can lead to deeply painful consequences. That doesn’t mean that you can’t call your spouse (or intended spouse) your “only one.” Here’s the big difference.  READ COMMENTS NEEDED  The Biden administration just issued a NATIONWIDE MANDATE to force employers to accommodate employee abortions. CatholicVote is calling on YOU to submit a comment objecting to the new rule.

The trial of five pro-life activists facing federal charges for allegedly violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act continues on.

The pro-lifers face up to 11 years in jail if convicted.And now the Judge in the case has denied clear evidence of infanticide at abortion mill in a trial that could change everything.

Lauren Handy, Will Goodman, John Hinshaw, Heather Idoni, and Herb Geraghty are facing up to 11 years in federal prison if convicted of violating the FACE Act.

Be a hero save a whale, save a baby go to jail

The charges stem from a sit-in that took place at the D.C.-based Washington Surgi-Clinic late-term abortion facility back in October of 2020.

The five pro-life activists named in this trial, and another five pro-lifers, made plans for a sit-in protest at the facility. They sang, they prayed, and they locked arms in front of the facility’s staff entrance, and then peacefully attached themselves to rope and chains to block doors in the building to try and “delay the murder of kids.”

Police arrived and removed the pro-lifers who were arrested and indicted on the claims that they conspired to obstruct the “right to reproductive health services.”

In other words, they peacefully gathered to try and stop the murder of innocent children.

CBN News reported, that Handy, who is the lead defendant in the case, made headlines last year after she found the fully formed bodies of 5 aborted babies that authorities later recovered. 

Handy, a pro-life activist with the group Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU), and another pro-life activist named Terrisa Bukovinac, obtained a box containing the aborted babies outside of the Washington Surgi-Clinic in March 2022. 

Five of those babies were full-term 

While Handy is currently on trial for a completely different case, her supporters argue the five unborn babies’ bodies should be seen as evidence that her actions at the facility in 2020 were justified.

But U.S. District Court Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly refused video evidence her legal team claim revealed her primary motivation for choosing WSC as a place for her activism. This despite a Live Action undercover investigation from 2012 that shows Dr. Cesare Santangelo, who runs WSC, admitting any children accidentally born alive during abortions would not receive any medical assistance to survive.

This neglect is not just abhorrent but is also illegal under federal law. 

After seeing that Live Action video, Handy left her full-time job to become an activist dedicated to defending preborn babies. 

But Kollar-Kotelly claimed, without any evidence at all that the video was “heavily edited,” claiming the abortionist’s video confession is just “gossip from propagandists.”

The judge has also barred Handy from sharing photos of the 5 babies with the jury, calling them “incendiary.” 

She also suggested at one point that Handy’s defense team was trying to make the case about the morality of abortion.

President and Founder of Live Action, Lila Rose, blasted Kollar-Kotelly’s strong pro-abortion bias.

“We are seeing a horrific abuse of our justice system that five pro-life activists are potentially facing eleven years in prison for peaceful pro-life activism. If members of the Department of Justice actually cared about doing their job, they would investigate and bring Cesare Santangelo to justice for the children he has mutilated and killed. Instead, the Biden DOJ is nothing more than an abortion interest group, albeit one with the power of ruining lives by bringing unjust decade-long prison charges,” Rose said.

She continued, “It is also scandalous that this judge has refused to admit as evidence into the trial the Live Action video which inspired Lauren Handy’s pro-life activism regarding this specific abortion facility. Live Action reporting holds itself to the highest standards of journalistic integrity and excellence. Live Action reported the facts, straight from the mouth of the notorious late-term abortionist Cesare Santangelo, and our organization always releases and posts the full, unedited raw footage of every investigation. When Santangelo told our reporter that he would ‘not help’ a child born alive during a failed abortion attempt, we should take him at his word. We have inspired thousands to take action to defend innocent human lives and end the ongoing tragedy of abortion in America.”The additional five pro-life activists who took part in the October 2020 sit-in face the same charges, but will have separate trials.

George Soros is one of the biggest donors to the Democrat Party.

Now Soros is sounding the alarm bells about the upcoming election.

And George Soros made one prediction about the 2024 election that you won’t believe. In remarks to the international media group Project Syndicate, Soros explained that elections are not decided on economic factors alone, but also the emotions that issues affecting voters’ lives stir up.

“This will certainly be true for the 2024 Presidential election,” Soros stated.

Soros added that he believed the Democrat lawfare project to try, convict, and jail Donald Trump would succeed and that Trump would be sitting in a jail cell on Election Day.

“I expect that Trump will be found guilty at least in some cases and will be in jail by Election Day in November 2024,” Soros added.s said he believed Trump would lose, but that if he won, he would plunge America into a Constitutional crisis.

“If I am right, he is unlikely to win the election,” Soros continued. “But if I am wrong, the U.S. will face a Constitutional crisis that is likely to bring on an economic crisis as well.”

Soros’ statements confirmed what Donald Trump and many of his supporters believe in that the point of these criminal cases against Trump was to interfere in the election.

“Deranged Jack Smith & his team of Thugs, who were caught going to the White House just prior to Indicting the 45th President of the United States (an absolute No No!), have been working on this Witch Hunt for almost 3 years, but decided to bring it smack in the middle of Crooked Joe Biden’s Political Opponent’s campaign against him. Election Interference! Today a biased, Trump Hating Judge gave me only a two month extension, just what our corrupt government wanted, SUPER TUESDAY. I will APPEAL!” Trump wrote about the Obama judge in the 2020 election case scheduling his trial on March 4, 2024, one day before the Super Tuesday Primaries, claiming it was designed to tank his campaign. Trump warned Democrats that their scheme to weaponize the justice system could backfire and help him win the election.

“These Indictments and lawsuits are all part of my political opponents campaign plan. It is Election Interference, and they are going to use the DOJ/FBI to help them, which is illegal. Crooked Joe pushed this litigation hard to get it done. This is a new low in Presidential Politics. To the Democrats, I say, “be careful what you wish for,”” Trump added.
