"An Abortion Story Too Good to Confirm" ???

That was the title the Wall Street Journal thought was appropriate to add to a piece questioning the existence of a ten year old rape victim?

And it was "too good to confirm" because they, what, didn't bother to try to confirm it?

Yost, a Republican, told Fox News host Jesse Watters that his office had not heard "a whisper" of a report being filed for the 10-year-old victim.

"We have regular contact with prosecutors and local police and sheriffs — not a whisper anywhere," Yost said on the show.

Yost doubled down on that in an interview with the USA TODAY Network Ohio bureau on Tuesday, saying that the more time passed before confirmation made it "more likely that this is a fabrication."

"I know the cops and prosecutors in this state," Yost said. "There's not one of them that wouldn't be turning over every rock, looking for this guy and they would have charged him. They wouldn't leave him loose on the streets ... I'm not saying it could not have happened. What I'm saying to you is there is not a damn scintilla of evidence."

On Wednesday, once news of the arraignment of the Columbus man accused in the child's rape came, Yost issued a single sentence statement:

"We rejoice anytime a child rapist is taken off the streets."

What an asshole.

Amazingly they (finally) added an editors note to explain that the story was confirmed but DIDN'T CHANGE THE HEADLINE.

Turns out the rape suspect is an illegal alien so now everyone believes it happened. He also confessed, so there's that.

Apparently, Ohio Republicans can't keep children safe.
 
Elon Musk should start marketing Space X abortions. Also, the federal government can offer abortions on the moon.

Yep.

Of course it’s Biden’s fault, doncha know, because of the convenient lie of his “open borders”.




And of course the ever honorable Jim Jordan jumped on the disbelieving and passionately wrong bandwagon…


The case was first reported on 1 July with few details in the IndyStar. As other news outlets struggled to confirm the story, prominent conservatives began to question its veracity.

Among the sceptics was congressman Jim Jordan, an Ohio Republican, who had tweeted on Tuesday that the story was "another lie".

As news of the court appearance emerged on Wednesday, Mr Jordan appeared to have quietly deleted that tweet.

A new one was posted in which the lawmaker called for the suspect to be "prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law".
 
So Republicans are against aborting anchor babies?
 
 
This turn by republicans to try redefine what an abortion is and is not is really weird.
