Pro-Life Advocacy Group Banned from Pinterest, Placed on ‘Pornography Blocked List’

Pro-Life Advocacy Group Banned from Pinterest, Placed on ‘Pornography Blocked List’



Pro-Life advocacy group Live Action has been banned from Pinterest for spreading “medical misinformation and conspiracies.”


According to CBN News, Live Action – a pro-life organization founded by 30-year-old Lila Rose – was first suspended from the social media platform when its URL was added to a “pornography blocked list.”


The organization’s director of external affairs Alison Centofante shared the news on Twitter noting that Pinterest appeared to have “intentionally added ‘LiveAction.org’ to a list of blocked pornography sites.”


She wrote, “Pinterest received an appeal and doubled down, keeping ‘LiveAction.org’ on their pornography blocked list.”


“It appears Live Action is the only pro-life group on this list, at this time,” she added.


Other conservative and non-pornographic sites are on the list, however, including ZeroHedge.com and pjmedia.com.


Centofante included a link to a Project Veritas video in her tweet. The video seemingly shows Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe speaking with a whistleblower from Pinterest. The undisclosed person reportedly…

The Cartoon Network is the latest company to celebrate LGBT Pride Month, and it’s using one of its most popular animated shows to do it. 


The network’s Facebook and Twitter accounts posted a message June 2 alongside a picture of the Powerpuff Girls telling viewers, “We want to wish everyone a HAPPY PRIDE and encourage all of our LGBTQ+ fans to stand proud all year long!”


Powerpuff Girls consistently ranks as one of the most-liked shows among viewers. The social media posts showed eight characters from the show standing underneath a rainbow with the message, “Happy Pride.” The Twitter message includes the hashtags “#pride #happypride #powerpuffyourself #pridemonth #powerpuffgirls.” 


Christian Post and CNS News also reported the network’s activism.


Viewers who closely follow the network’s shows likely weren’t surprised. 


The former series Clarence included a character with two moms. Steven Universe, which is still on the air, showed a same-sex marriage proposal in 2018 between two characters, Ruby and Sapphire.

Texas Governor Signs ‘Save Chick-fil-A’ Bill into Law

Texas Governor Signs ‘Save Chick-fil-A’ Bill into Law



The “Save Chick-fil-A” bill was signed into law on Monday by Texas Governor Greg Abbott.


As Christian Headlines previously reported, the bill – SB 1978 – will protect businesses from being discriminated against by government entities because of their “membership in, affiliation with, or contribution, donation, or other support provided to a religious organization.”


The legislation came about in the lone star state after San Antonio’s City Council voted in March to exclude Chick-fil-A from the airport, in part due to the company’s donations to the Salvation Army and Fellowship of Christian Athletes.


District 1 City Councilman Robert Treviño shared that he believed excluding the Christian affiliated Chicken restaurant was the right call because “we do not have room in our public facilities for a business with a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior,” the Washington Times reported back in March.


Texas state Rep. Jessica Gonzalez (D-TX) – who is an openly gay woman – regarded the bill as a personal attack. According to CBN News, Gonzalez said, “Of course this bill is aimed at me. 


She continued, “It’s about reminding those of us who have never belonged not to get too comfortable.” 


Another Texas state Rep. Celia Israel (D-TX) went as far as to say the law is all about “hatred.”


Supporters of the bill, however, see the exclusion of Chick-fil-A on the…

Illinois Governor Signs Pro-Abortion Bill: ‘Fetus Does Not Have Independent Rights’

Illinois Governor Signs Pro-Abortion Bill: ‘Fetus Does Not Have Independent Rights’



Illinois Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker signed into law Wednesday a bill he said protects women’s rights but that pro-lifers said rolls backs protections for the unborn by declaring abortion a “fundamental right.”


The so-called Reproductive Health Act (S.B. 25) declares the “fetus does not have independent rights” and changes the definition of viability so as to protect fewer unborn babies. It also requires health insurance plans to cover abortion and forces parents to pay for their minor daughter’s abortion — even if they opposed her having one.


The pro-life group Live Action called it a “dark day” and said the law was “worse” than the controversial law passed in New York earlier this year.


The law “legalizes abortions through all nine months of pregnancy, up to the moment of birth, for any reason,” said Illinois Right to Life.


Pritzker said the law puts the decision-making in the “hands of women and their doctors.”


“In a time when too many states across the nation are taking a step backward, Illinois is taking a giant step forward for women’s health,” he said. “… The Reproductive Health Act ensures that women’s rights in Illinois do not hinge on the fate of Roe v. Wade, or the whims of an increasingly conservative Supreme Court. In this state, women will always have the right to reproductive health…
