Jen Psaki has mocked the pro-life movement’s move to rebrand itself as “Pro-Baby”.

Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki has mocked the pro-life movement‘s move to rebrand themselves as “Pro-Baby”.

He told her MSNBC audience:

“I hate to break it to you but if you call broccoli candy, it’s still just broccoli. If you tie a really nice bow around a lump of coal, it is still coal under there.”

She’s not even going with “clump of cells”. Lump of coal is a new one.

But wait. Aren’t the Left anti-coal, as well as anti-babies?

Imagine thinking you’re dunking on the Pro-Baby movement by comparing unborn babies to lumps of coal. This is what happens when former White House staff get hold of Hunter Biden’s stash.

Out of interest, if I climbed into the nest of a bald eagle and destroyed all the eggs, would Psaki shrug and say, “No matter, it’s just a lump of coal”?

We all know the answer to that one.

Unreal

The smugness, condescension, and undisguised contempt for anyone who does not favour killing unborn babies on demand is clearly evident.

Jen Psaki seems to think she’s incredibly clever, and more than a little bit funny. But let’s face it, it’s an exceedingly low bar when it comes to clever for the progressive left.

These are, after all, people who believe that a penile inversion operation turns a boy into a girl.

I hate to break it to Biden’s former staffer, but if you call Bruce “Katie”, he’s still just Bruce. If you tie a really nice bow around a male coal miner, he’s still a male coal miner under there.

Anyway, the Democrats can call an unborn baby a clump of tissue, or a broccoli, or even a radish if they really want to… it’s still a baby.

Consider this report from Jen Psaki’s own news network, NBC. The headline read:

“Arkansas woman suing police after brief chase ends with her car flipped on its top.”

And then the journalist reported:

“Motorist Nicole Harper was two months pregnant and believed the crash had killed her lump of coal.”

Not really.

It actually said:

“Motorist Nicole Harper was two months pregnant and believed the crash had killed her unborn baby.”

Aha!

Do you get it yet?

The progressive left believes an unborn baby is an unborn baby when it suits, and a lump of coal when it doesn’t suit.

Or a piece of broccoli.

Whatever.

I’m curious as to how Psaki explains a lump of coal with a heartbeat.

One thing is for sure: her kids need to be careful around her. She seems to have enormous difficulty sorting living things from inanimate objects. ‘

Same problem when she worked for Joe Biden. But I digress.

Malice

It should be deeply unsettling to everyone, regardless of their political stripe, to see the sanctity of life being diminished to such an extent, especially from someone who was in such a prominent position.

By likening an unborn baby to a “lump of coal”, or to a piece of broccoli, Psaki does more than trivialise the deeply-held beliefs of pro-life advocates; she outright mocks them.

A former White House Press Secretary, who worked for a President who identifies as a devout Catholic, no less, ridicules people who dare to believe that an unborn baby is a human being.

It’s clearly not a lump of coal. Or a piece of broccoli.

You might hope for a higher standard of discourse on matters as serious and divisive as this.

But what point is there talking standards to someone who can see no substantive difference between a piece of coal and an unborn baby?

This is frightening.

Today, it’s unborn babies.

Tomorrow, it’ll be the elderly.

Next week, those with diseases requiring long-term care… they’re just too damn expensive, you see.

It’s a slippery slope, starting with the most vulnerable.

I hope we come to our senses and see comments like Psaki’s for what they really are. Evil. Pure evil.
