In this episode, Matt Anderson and I discuss the rhetorical and political difficulties of maintaining a consistent pro-life position in a conservative political milieu divided on questions of IVF and recent court ruling related to abortion pill access. We then explore the strategic and tactical approaches the emerging wings of the pro-life movement are taking as distinct “reformer” and “radical” coalitions take shape and vie for influence. In particular, we consider the self-proclaimed “abolitionist” movement and its adoption of a more militant anti-abortion position, contrasting it to the “radical” and “reform” wings of the original abolitionist movement that sought to end slavery in Great Britain and United States.In some ways, this is a heavy conversation as it touches on an issue that Matt and I both care about, and some of the developments are deeply troubling to us, particularly as Christian advocates for the unborn. Still, there's cause for encouragement and even optimism as we look to the future.Subscribe to Tim Talks Politics on Substack for the full show notes (30% off for podcast listeners)!

What does it actually mean to abolish abortion — not just restrict it? In this episode of Refining Rhetoric, host Robert Bortins sits down with Classical Conversations graduate and Students for Abolition president Pate Anglin to discuss why a biblical abolitionist framework goes further than the mainstream pro-life movement — and how student chapters across 8 states are taking that fight to college campuses, state capitals, and beyond. Pate Anglin grew up in a homeschooling household shaped by classical education, faith, and the intentional discipleship of his parents — and he credits that foundation with preparing him for what he encountered at East Tennessee State University. Entering college in 2021 on a full-ride leadership scholarship, Pate quickly found himself navigating pronoun mandates, ideological pressure, and a campus culture hostile to a biblical worldview. Rather than retreating, he leaned in — and what started as a small group of young men praying in a dorm room became Students for Abolition, a rapidly growing network now active on 14 campuses across 7 states and into Canada. In this conversation, Robert and Pate dig into what truly separates the abolitionist position from mainstream pro-life strategy. Pate argues that much of the pro-life movement — though well-intentioned — has unknowingly adopted a humanistic framework, opposing abortion because it "pollutes the water" or "hurts mothers" rather than because it violates God's law. He walks through the abolitionist acronym GATES (Gospel-centered, Aligned through the church, Engaged biblically, Sought immediately) and explains how rooting the argument in Scripture changes everything — including how the law can function as a tool for tutoring society, restraining evil, and even serving as a gateway to the gospel. They also tackle some of the most contested questions in the movement: Should mothers be criminalized? What would an equal protection bill actually look like in practice? Why do so many pro-life organizations oppose abolition legislation? And why does Students for Abolition intentionally place men in leadership roles on the front lines of this cultural battle? Whether you're a CC parent wondering how classical education prepares students for the real world, a student looking to get involved, or a Christian trying to think through the abortion issue with more biblical clarity — this episode will challenge and encourage you.

In this unfiltered and deeply confronting episode of The Real Deal Podcast, Abby Johnson and Regan Long pull back the curtain on the modern pro-life movement—and what happens when truth becomes too uncomfortable for the establishment. Abby shares the shocking response from the March for Life after screening her upcoming documentary Unthinkable—a film featuring three dozen former abortion workers risking everything to expose what really happens inside the abortion industry. While praised as “truthful” and “compelling,” the film was rejected for being too graphic. That rejection sparks a no-holds-barred conversation about compromise, money, politics, and why many major pro-life organizations may not actually want abortion to end. This episode dives into: Why graphic truth is being avoided—even in the pro-life movement How whistleblowers are risking prison to tell the truth The uncomfortable reality of “non-profits” that profit from the fight Why Abby is actively trying to work herself out of a job How politics, power, and optics are overshadowing urgency Why “lowering numbers” isn’t the same as ending evil The spiritual warfare behind exposing what’s hidden And why a new movement—or total collapse—may be inevitable This conversation isn’t polished. It isn’t safe. And it isn’t meant to be.It’s a call to wake up, stop compromising, and ask the hard question: If the goal is to end abortion, why are so many afraid of the truth? If this episode challenged you, share it.If it offended you, sit with it.And if you’ve been waiting for someone to finally say the quiet part out loud—this one’s for you.

1/16/26 - What does it really mean to defend life, and where, exactly, is the line being drawn? Jim Havens and Fr. Stephen Imbarrato offer a direct and unfiltered examination of the question many avoid asking: Why not personhood now? Moving beyond slogans and incremental talking points, they analyze specific clips and public statements from political leaders such as Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis alongside religious voices, including Pope Leo XIV, to expose how ambiguity, compromise, and strategic silence continue to shape the public conversation on abortion. Grounded in Catholic moral theology, natural law, and the Church's consistent teaching on life from conception, the discussion presses into whether delayed personhood is a prudential strategy or a moral failure. With concrete examples, hard distinctions, and pastoral urgency, we challenge Catholics to examine whether defending the unborn “eventually” is compatible with proclaiming their full dignity now.
The Civil War in the Pro-Life Movement Why did abortion survive the early 1980s, when momentum, political power, and Christian consensus seemed aligned?

10/17/25 - Virginia's governor's race has become one of the most consequential political battles in the country, not just for partisan control, but for the future of pro-life protections in the Commonwealth. At the heart of the race is a stark contrast between candidates who promise to increase abortion access up to birth and those who have pledged to defend the unborn with concrete legislative action. We go beyond soundbites to examine the real policies at stake: late-term abortion legislation, taxpayer funding for abortion providers, parental consent laws, and conscience protections for medical professionals. We'll unpack how this race could either strengthen Virginia's emerging pro-life momentum or cement its reputation as a haven for abortion extremism. Drawing from Catholic social teaching and the witness of the faithful, we'll look at what faithful citizenship demands in moments like these, why this particular race is being watched nationwide, and how Catholics can engage not just with a vote, but with prayer, public witness, and courage. This isn't just another election; it's a defining moment for life in Virginia.

Today's Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Frank Pavone joins Terry to discuss the latest news in the pro-life movement Gospel - Matthew 22:34-40 - When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together, and one of them, a scholar of the law, tested Him by asking, "Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?" He said to him, "You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments." Memorial of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary O Queen of Heaven, pray for us! Bishop Sheen quote of the day

In this episode, we dive into the dangers of a digitalized abortion industry, the pastoral and cultural challenges it creates, and the concrete steps every Catholic can take to witness to the dignity of human life.
