Tim Walz Isn't Just Pro-Abortion, He's Pro-Infanticide
[AMP America] During the debate on Tuesday, one of the ABC News moderators corrected former President Donald Trump’s claim about babies who survive unsuccessful abortions, stating that they are not killed. However, recent records from Minnesota indicate that eight babies have survived such procedures but subsequently died after being denied critical medical treatment.

Donald Trump claimed that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who is Kamala Harris’s vice presidential pick, supports abortion up until the ninth month and even condones "execution" after birth, which Trump argued is unacceptable.

ABC News’ Linsey Davis countered Trump’s assertion, clarifying, "No state in the U.S. permits killing a baby after birth."

However, data from Minnesota reveals a more complex situation. Under Governor Walz’s administration, five infants who were "born alive" during failed abortions in 2021 did not receive life-saving care, though two were given "comfort care," according to a report from the Minnesota Department of Health on July 1, 2022. Additionally, three infants "born alive" in 2019, Walz’s first year in office, also died without life-saving treatment, as reported by the same agency on July 1, 2020.

Minnesota was one of the few states that required public reporting of "born-alive" abortions, providing a significant statistic for pro-life and anti-abortion advocates. However, in 2023, Governor Walz collaborated with the newly Democrat-controlled Legislature to remove both the reporting requirement and the state’s mandate for doctors, nurses, and medical professionals to provide life-saving care to infants born alive during abortion procedures.

In 2023, the House of Representatives approved the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act with a vote of 220-210. If enacted, this legislation would mandate that healthcare professionals provide care to any infant born alive following a failed abortion.

This would most be rescinded with a radical Harris/Walz Administration. Walz has a long history of being on the forefront of the murder of American infants.

Governor Walz enacted a law that secures abortion rights by removing nearly all state-imposed restrictions and offering safeguards for patients traveling from states with stricter abortion laws. During a visit in March to a Planned Parenthood clinic in St. Paul, he joined Vice President Harris, who praised Minnesota’s progressive stance on abortion rights. This visit marked what the Vice President’s office described as the first tour of an abortion provider by a sitting President or Vice President. The new legislation abolished several restrictions, including a mandatory 24-hour waiting period and the need for parental consent.

Read that again slowly. Tim Walz wants children to be able to access abortion on demand with no parental consent required.
This is the only part of the debate I watched. I remember wondering how and why Linsey Davis was so quick to "fact check" what Trump said. I remember wondering who checks the checkers?
And then you found this article, just one of the many fact checks put out by America’s loyal conservative opposition. Skills are sharpening all over the right side of the field, now that we aren’t waiting for the politicians to get to it.

#1 and, as I understand it, per Gov directive, MN will no longer keep records of post birth infant consequences
