With overwhelming support from white evangelical Christians, former President Donald Trump repeatedly touted his allegedly pro-life stance.

In a 2020 letter to Pro-Life Voices for Trump, the former President awarded himself the distinction of being "the most pro-life President in our nation's history." He's frequently promoted hysteria regarding abortion and stem cell research. He's blatantly lied that Democrats support abortion after birth, also known as infanticide.

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, the case arguing the constitutionality of a Mississippi ban on abortions long before the viability period established in Roe v. Wade. With a strong conservative majority, the Court—which includes three Justices appointed by Trump—seems poised to effectively or directly overturn Roe v. Wade.

With these arguments capturing national attention, video soon resurfaced of Trump in an interview with the late Tim Russert in 1999, boasting about his pro-choice stances.

Watch below.

Trump, who was considering a run for President at the time, says in the video:

"I'm very pro-choice. I hate the concept of abortion. I hate it. I hate everything it stands for. I cringe when I listen to people debating the subject. But I just believe in choice. ... I am strongly for choice and yet I hate the concept of abortion."

Trump even went on to say that he wouldn't take steps to ban the extremely rare practice of partial birth abortion.

People weren't surprised at the contradiction.





Some said Trump's pro-choice conversion was yet another grift.




Sadly, the future looks grim for bodily autonomy.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
