One of Joe Biden's main agenda points on which his legacy likely will be based is his total advocacy for abortion.

He's sought numerous ways to try to promote the infant-destroying industry since the Supreme Court overturned the faulty Roe v. Wade precedent from 1973 and allowed states to regulate the procedures.

One of these schemes was a plan to have the federal government pay for members of the military to travel to states that still allow abortion when they wanted.

Now a plan in Congress would upend Biden's strategy.

Fox News explains legislation has been proposed by "dozens" of Republicans in the U.S. House to prohibit the Department of Defense from paying for that abortion-related travel.

Fox reported, "After the U.S. Supreme Court decision reversing Roe v. Wade, the Pentagon said it would help service members in states with strict abortion limits travel to other states and would reimburse them for expenses."

However, Reps. Ronny Jackson and Chip Roy, both Republicans from Texas, would ban that.

Should the federal government pay for members of the military to travel to states that allow abortions?

After all, Jackson explained that federal policy – for "decades" – already had forbidden those payments.

Jackson said, "The Department of Defense’s complete disregard for these longstanding pro-life provisions is unacceptable and must be stopped immediately. The DoD exists to protect our national security interests and to defend against our enemies, and it has no business using taxpayer dollars to contribute to the demise of the unborn."

Roy warned against the Biden administration using the military as a "political pawn" for his "social agenda."

Leftists in the military had suggested giving military service members both time and pay, plus travel expenses, to have abortions.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Long the world’s most Christian nation, America today is being taken over by a new “official” national religion, one being imposed on the entire populace by every major societal institution, from government, media and big tech, to academia, entertainment and business.

This new state religion is Wokeism. “Going woke” conjures up visions of someone claiming to be acutely sensitive (“awake”) to “systemic social and political injustice.” And not just alleged bigotry against blacks, but toward every other “minority” as well, from LGBT folk – especially everything transgender and “nonbinary” – to “undocumented immigrants.” All of them, being VICTIMS, intrinsically more virtuous than the shameful oppressor class: primarily heterosexual white males.

This new “woke” consciousness has turned America upside-down – from the nationwide Antifa and Black Lives Matter riots in 2020, to tearing down of historic monuments, to demanding multi-million-dollar reparation payments for blacks, to appointing transgenders as top government officials, to rampant reverse discrimination in every area of life, to the U.S. military imposing mandatory “diversity training” and transgender pronoun use on all personnel, causing recruitment to disastrously plummet.

Yet there is hope. Being “saved” – which in Wokeism is called being “woke” – is largely a matter of worshipping victimhood by becoming an “ally” and “defender” of all the many victim classes, and a determined enemy of the straight white male oppressor class. Thus, “joining the righteous” as an ally – even if one is cursed to be a straight white male – opens the door mercifully for salvation, even to the most wretched.

That is the power of the religion of Wokeism. And it’s explored as never before in the February 2023 issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine. If you’ve ever wondered, for example, exactly how the most radical elements in American society are successfully pressuring the biggest corporations into adopting the most outrageous and immoral policies imaginable, even when doing so permanently damages and devalues the company, the stunning answers are in this issue of Whistleblower, titled “WOKEISM: AMERICA’S OFFICIAL STATE RELIGION.”
