Ed Battagliano And then when Jacob, when he was giving out his blessings, if you think about it, then Joseph said, here's my sons, and he crossed his hands. No, no, no.

Over 60% of abortions happen through the abortion pill
Ed Vitagliano This June 24th marks three years since Roe versus Wade was overturned. But here's what you may not know. Abortion numbers have surged to a 10 year high. The battleground has shifted from the courtroom to our homes. Today, over 60% of abortions happen through the abortion pill. Taken in silence, often alone. PreBorn Network clinics are standing in the gap, meeting women in their most desperate hour. And here's what they're Young mothers, terrified and misled, are delivering their babies, tiny, perfectly formed, onto bathroom floors. These precious babies, once called just tissue, now lie lifeless. 11% of these women who take the abortion pill will suffer serious health complications. Countless others carry emotional scars for a lifetime. When you give to PreBorn, you're not just saving a baby, you're saving a mother, too. You're giving her hope, financial support, and the truth.

Caroline that's incorrect.
Ed Vitagliano Okay.
Caroline The very first scene filmed was when Charlton Heston came off of Mount Sinai.

Tim Wildmon How'd you know this, Carlos?
Caroline Oh, well, I'm just reading through the Bible. several. I try to go through it every year. Doesn't always happen, but I just finished Deuteronomy and I'm in Joseph and, talking about the division of the tribes, and that's the tribe that was split. Joseph.
Ed Battagliano Right.
Tim Wildmon Yeah.
Ed Battagliano And then when Jacob, when he was giving out his blessings, if you think about it, then Joseph said, here's my sons, and he crossed his hands. No, no, no. You're putting your hand on the wrong one. And Jacob might have been remembering back when he and his mom conspired to trick his dad.
Ed Vitagliano Yeah, but that's.
Ed Battagliano That's a whole lot, whole lot in those.
Tim Wildmon So you're reading through the Bible, every year?
Caroline it doesn't happen all every year, but yes, I tried. I read through it.

Tim Wildmon All right, hold on just a minute. Hurdy Gertie, that's not like an internal injury, right? That's.
Ed Battagliano No, here's the deal. Hurty Gertie is a second cousin twice removed of the Hokey Pokey. So it all goes back to roller skating, back when they was wooden floors and not that hard surface where you could really hurt yourself.

Ed Battagliano Your canary.
Ed Vitagliano Canary.
Ed Battagliano Yeah, yeah, yeah, That's. So it's kind of a dual purpose. You got a sweet little pet and OSHA approved.
Tim Wildmon Yeah. And the carinary falls over. You got problems.

PreBorn Network clinics are standing in the gap, meeting women in their most desperate hour. And here's what they're Young mothers, terrified and misled, are delivering their babies, tiny, perfectly formed, onto bathroom floors. These precious babies, once called just tissue, now lie lifeless. 11% of these women who take the abortion pill will suffer serious health complications. Countless others carry emotional scars for a lifetime. When you give to PreBorn, you're not just saving a baby, you're saving a mother, too. You're giving her hope, financial support, and the truth. PreBorn has already rescued over 350,000 babies. But there are so many more who need our help. Your tax deductible gift makes this mission possible to donate. Now dial £250 and say the keyword baby. That's £250, baby. Or go to preborn.com afr that's preborn.com afr.

Ed Battagliano That's no, Lockwood.
Caroline It is 14.7 pounds per square inch.
Ed Vitagliano 14.7.
Tim Wildmon Interesting.
Caroline Yeah, yeah, it's kind of interesting, you know, that God knew the pressure that.
Tim Wildmon Was going to be, put down.
Caroline On our body, so he made us able to withstand that pressure, otherwise we would explode.
Ed Vitagliano Ah, I've seen people.
Ed Battagliano We'd implode.
