| Stacey Abrams, the Democrat who is running for governor of Georgia, recently observed that abortion is an "economic issue," and essentially said that having children is boosting inflation woes. |
| Her comments came off as flippant and callous, and she refused to address in more concrete terms how she would go about helping families deal with high costs – other than continuing to advocate for abortion access. |

| We're only one week away from the election (thank goodness), and voters remain most concerned about the economy and inflation. |
| Yet Democrats are still laser-focused on abortion rights, hoping they can divert attention from the economic troubles they've overseen the past two years. |
| Polls are showing momentum for Republicans in these final days, and as I discuss in one of my latest columns, I think Democrats have overplayed their hand on running on abortion. |
| Soon, we'll know. |

| ►Imagine if former President Donald Trump had tried to pawn off to Congress an executive action he took. I guarantee widespread outrage would have ensued. |
| ►COVID certainly seems like the most disruptive event in the past few years, and schools that refused to open in a timely manner are seeing the worst consequences. |
| ►Even die-hard Oregon liberals have gotten fed up with spiking crime, rampant homelessness and increased drug use. |
| ►The fact that an elderly man suffered a horrible assault took a quick backseat to those all too willing to drive a divisive conversation that advanced their point of view. |
