She highlighted the recent Golden Globe Awards where actress Michelle Williams used her acceptance speech as an opportunity to shout her pro-abortion beliefs.

Her speech was met with thunderous applause and a standing ovation — a true sign of the times, said Ellison.

“The louder we shout to justify our abortions, the more you drown out your heart,” she said. “You want your heart…
