In Boulder, Colorado, women can abort their child into the third trimester of pregnancy.   RISE Collective, an abortion clinic, opened its doors in October and is offering late term abortions up to 34 weeks’ gestation, just six weeks shy of the average delivery time.  “At RISE Collective, we believe that any reason you have for needing abortion care is yours—and it is the right one,” the facility’s promotional video states.   RISE, standing for Reproductive Health, Inclusive Care, Support and Empowerment, opens after abortionist and founder of Boulder Abortion Clinic Dr. Warren Hern retired earlier this year. The late-term abortion clinic operated for more than 50 years before closing its doors. Now, former Boulder Abortion Clinic staff work at RISE Collective.   “Abortion at any stage of pregnancy is legal and protected in Colorado. You may safely come to Colorado for care from any state or country, and your privacy will be protected,” RISE Collective writes on its website.   Colorado has historically been one of the most pro-abortion friendly states in the nation and in 2024, the people of Colorado voted to enshrine a “right” to abortion into the state’s constitution.   “The RISE Collective’s mission is to provide the highest standard of later abortion care and is grounded in the tenets of compassionate empowerment, sustainable access, and equity,” according to the group.   In addition to performing abortions, RISE Collective also advertises “gender-affirming healthcare” services. The abortion clinic has raised nearly $20,000, according to its GoFundMe campaign, and is aiming to raise an additional $30,000.   At just about six weeks of pregnancy, a baby’s heartbeat can be detected and by eight weeks, all of the babies’ major organs are developing. Around 20 weeks, a baby can hear and by 22 weeks, a mother can begin to feel her baby move inside her. A baby is considered viable outside the womb around 24 weeks, though babies born as early as 22 weeks have survived. Between weeks 31 and 34, a baby’s bones are still soft, but they are fully developed, according to Mount Sinai.  As of 2022, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that 97% of abortions occurred during the first 13 weeks of pregnancy and 7% occurred at 14 weeks gestation or later.   Over one million babies were aborted in 2024, according to Guttmacher. Today, over 60% of abortions are conducted using the abortion pill.   The post New Colorado Clinic Offers Late-Term Abortions for ‘Any Reason’   appeared first on The Daily Signal.

A high-profile police search in Germany has triggered outrage over what many see as part of an alarming encroachment on free expression. Jürgen Todenhöfer, the author and former member of parliament, was investigated by police after publishing social media posts that likened Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s treatment of Palestinians to Nazi crimes during World War II. Police reportedly searched his apartment and seized all electronic devices following weeks of surveillance. The 84-year-old, once a prominent figure in the center-Right Christian Democratic Union before founding his own Justice Party in 2020, revealed on X that he had been investigated, citing the message that led to the police investigation: “Mister Netanyahu, does your conscience never actually protest when you do to Palestinians the same thing that the cursed Nazis did to the Jews?” Authorities have yet to comment publicly, but the incident falls under Germany’s strict anti-incitement laws, which forbid statements perceived as diminishing the Holocaust. Todenhöfer has never been shy about challenging Germany’s foreign policy. His books on conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria earned him a reputation as a persistent voice against militarism. Despite his party’s lack of electoral success, his police attention has amplified his message.

Because standing up for peace and freedom in Palestine is our duty.” This is not his first confrontation with law enforcement. Todenhöfer said police had previously investigated him after he accused former Chancellor Olaf Scholz of treason for allegedly permitting the destruction of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

President Donald Trump has sent Hamas a final warning just days after finalizing his historic peace deal in the Middle East.Trump brokered and finalized his landmark peace deal between Israel and Hamas on October 13, over two years after the brutal conflict was ignited by the October 7 terrorist attack. Since the signing, skirmishes have broken out in Gaza, with Israel briefly resuming strikes and pausing aid in the region, killing dozens of Palestinians.'They have to be good, and if they're not good, they will be eradicated.'Israel justified the strikes by claiming two IDF soldiers were killed by Hamas militants. At the same time, other reports claimed the United States had intelligence that an Israeli bulldozer mistakenly ran over undetonated ordnance, prompting pressure from the White House to halt the strikes and continue providing aid to the region. In the aftermath of the violent flare-ups that took place over the weekend, Trump cautioned Hamas that our allies in the region remain ready to eradicate the group. RELATED: Trump has unequivocal response to whether US troops will help 'eradicate' Hamas if group continues to 'behave' badly "Numerous of our NOW GREAT ALLIES in the Middle East, and areas surrounding the Middle East, have explicitly and strongly, with great enthusiasm, informed me that they would welcome the opportunity, at my request, to go into GAZA with a heavy force and 'straighten out Hamas' if Hamas continues to act badly, in violation of their agreement with us," Trump said in a Truth Social post Tuesday."The love and spirit for the Middle East has not been seen like this in a thousand years!" Trump added. "It is a beautiful thing to behold! I told these countries, and Israel, 'NOT YET!' There is still hope that Hamas will do what is right. If they do not, an end to Hamas will be FAST, FURIOUS, & BRUTAL!"Trump's repeated calls to eradicate Hamas have raised questions about the extent of America's involvement in the conflict. Last week, Trump said, "We will have no choice but to go in and kill [Hamas]," if Hamas didn't adhere to the term of the ceasefire. After violence broke out over the weekend, Blaze News asked Trump to clarify who "we" is.RELATED: 'Who the hell cares?'

"Does that include American boots on the ground?""No. It won't be on the ground at all," Trump replied from the Cabinet Room Monday.Trump told Blaze News that allies in the region would voluntarily "eradicate" Hamas so long as the United States signed off on it."I mean, we've had countries calling me when they saw some of the killing with Hamas, saying, 'We'd love to go in and take care of the situation ourselves,'" Trump said. "In addition you have Israel would go in in two minutes if I asked them to go in. I could tell them, 'Go in and take care of it.' But right now we haven't said that. We're gonna give it a little chance, and hopefully there will be a little less violence, but right now, you know, they're violent people. Hamas has been very violent.""They have to be good, and if they're not good, they will be eradicated," he added.Like Blaze News?
