From the Washington Examiner: Vice President Kamala Harris deflected questions about the specific abortion restrictions she would accept as president, instead redirecting the conversation back to claims that former President Donald Trump has denied, alleging that he would enact an abortion ban.
“I support Roe v. Wade being put back into law by Congress and to restore the fundamental right of women to make decisions about their own body,” Harris told CBS Sunday Morning. “It is that basic.”
When pressed again by anchor Norah O’Donnell, Harris pivoted the conversation, saying they would not even be “debating” restrictions if former President Donald Trump had not nominated three justices to the Supreme Court that decided Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the majority opinions of which repealed the Roe abortion precedent.
O’Donnell also pushed Harris on her claims that Trump would introduce a federal abortion ban, despite his counter-claims that he would not. In response, Harris referred O’Donnell to Project 2025, policy proposals from conservative think tank Heritage Foundation, which the former president had distanced himself from.
Trump has repeatedly stated that neither he nor his campaign had anything to do with the “Project 2025″ proposal, but when O’Donnell reminder her of that, Harris sneered, “I am a former prosecutor. His DNA is all over it. All over it.”
Harris never would answer O’Donnell’s question about what restrictions she would support on abortion, leaving listeners to assume she supports abortions without any limits.
After Harris went on a long rant, O’Donnell tried again, asking, “So why not say what restrictions you would support as part of that?”
Harris snapped, “I’ve told you, let’s put back in place Roe v. Wade.”

Last week in an NBC News nterview, Harris was asked, “What concessions would be on the table? Religious exemptions, for example?”
Harris retorted, “I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body?”
Kamala Harris admits she would deny religious exemptions for abortions—forcing Christians to kill unborn children and seemingly doubling down on weaponizing the government to jail pro-lifers who pray outside abortion facilities.

Meanwhile, Michelle Obama spoke at a rally for Kamala Harris in Kalamazoo, Michigan Saturday night, and went on a tirade about abortion rights, in which she used graphic details of women’s health issues to try to convince men to vote for Harris, claiming they should should do so to protect the women they loved, and implied that the pro-life moment would take away women’s healthcare entirely.
