Yesterday The Daily Wire<\/a> posted an article that illustrates how words can be misused to create a false narrative.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

NBC\u2019s Chuck Todd pressed Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves (R) to accept vaccine mandates as \u201cpro-life\u201d actions, while simultaneously suggesting that access to abortion should be protected as an individual liberty.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reeves made an appearance Sunday on \u201cMeet the Press,\u201d joining Todd for a discussion on the emergence of a new coronavirus variant<\/a> and Mississippi\u2019s vaccination rate as well as the 15-week abortion ban that will face the scrutiny of the Supreme Court in the coming weeks.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Governor Reeves pointed out that there is nothing in the U.S. Constitution that prevents states from limited abortion.<\/p>\n

The article also includes some of the Governor’s comments on vaccine mandates:<\/p>\n

Todd then attempted to use Reeves\u2019 own comments about his opposition to vaccine mandates<\/a> to argue that a vaccine mandate was actually a \u201cpro-life\u201d position.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a power grab by the federal government. We\u2019ve seen this time and time again by the Biden administration, and now we\u2019re seeing their strong desire to trying to make decisions on behalf of individual Americans. We believe in freedom and individual liberty,\u201d Reeves said of the vaccine mandates.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Freedom and individual liberty,’\u201d Todd repeated. \u201cWhy should the state of Mississippi tell a woman what they should do with their body? Why shouldn\u2019t they have that individual freedom on their body, particularly in the first 20 weeks?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWell, this is a prime example, and the far left loves to scream, \u2018My body, my choice.\u2019 What I would submit to you, choice, is they absolutely ignore the fact that in getting an abortion there is an actual killing of an innocent unborn child that is in that womb,\u201d Reeves replied. \u201cHere is what we know about babies that are 15 weeks. We know that they have a heartbeat. We know that those babies at 15 weeks actually can open and close their hands. We know that they have developing lungs, and we know that those babies at 15 weeks can feel pain, and so when you talk \u2013 the difference between vaccine mandates and abortions is vaccines allow you to protect yourself. Abortions actually go in and kill other American babies. Let\u2019s just put this in perspective \u2013\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

‘My body, my choice’ totally falls apart when you realize that an abortion involves another body with an entirely different DNA. We can expect more of this sort of twisting words in the near future when the Mississippi case comes before the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
