JD Vance told the truth about the abortion in Minnesota and Walz, along with the media, are bald-faced liars

Truth

In 2023, Minnesota repealed protections for infants born alive during botched abortions, meaning that doctors and mothers can let a fully-developed baby die without health care—which is exactly what President Trump and JD Vance have been saying. There are no limits in Minnesota, and a handful of other states, as to how late an “abortion” can be performed. Here’s what Vance said, verbatim:

As I read the Minnesota law that you signed into law, the statute that you signed into law says a doctor who presides over an abortion where the baby survives, the doctor is under no obligation to provide life-saving care to a baby who survives a botched late-term abortion.

To this, Walz said, “That’s not true.’

Well, either Walz has no idea what he signed, or he is just a congenital liar, and either people posing as journalists who refused to fact-check him have never read the Minnesota law, or they don’t care about the truth and are also congenital liars.

Here’s the NBC “fact-check” scramble to cover Walz’s record, pretending the new language is no different than the old:

Passage of the 2023 law led to the removal of certain language from Minnesota statutes, including language that required physicians to ‘preserve the life and health’ of an infant ‘born alive.’ State statutes now say that ‘all reasonable measures consistent with good medical practice … shall be taken by the responsible medical personnel to care for the infant who is born alive.’

“Reasonable measures consistent with good medical practice….” Somehow, I don’t exactly trust the discernment of a person attempting to butcher a fully-developed baby; if someone is willing to tear a baby to pieces, I don’t think their judgment on “reasonable measures” and “good medical practice” are exactly sound.
