This Grandma Can’t Celebrate Thanksgiving With Her Family Because Biden Put Her in Prison for Protesting Abortion

This week our country has a lot to be thankful for as we look ahead to the re-ushering in of the Trump administration. We look with eager anticipation at his promises to improve the economy and create a safe, sustainable country for us all to live in. And most importantly, we look forward to putting the failures and governmental overreach of the Biden-Harris administration in the rearview mirror.

But not every American can do that this holiday season, some are still feeling the sting of the current government’s weaponization against them. It appears President Donald Trump was not the only American that Biden’s government targeted with lawfare.

This holiday, grandmothers like Paulette Harlow, will be forced to report to federal prison instead of her family’s Thanksgiving table, all thanks to Biden’s Department of Justice. Despite serving home detention, the federal government is now demanding this 75-year old Catholic nurse report to prison just days before Thanksgiving.

Ms. Harlow is not the only one spending her holidays and years to come in federal prison. The Biden-Harris administration has grossly abused the FACE Act and targeted pro-life Americans over the course of its reign. Under the FACE Act, pro-lifers were thrown in federal prison for protesting abortion. This DOJ seems to go in only one direction for FACE Act violations. In 2022 the DOJ charged 26 pro-life individuals with violations, yet there have been no FACE Act indictments against those who attacked pro-life centers besides four radical individuals charged in Florida. All while at least 88 pro-life groups and 436 churches have been attacked since the Supreme Court’s leaked decision to reverse Roe.

Eva Edl survived a Soviet prison camp but now faces a potential death by imprisonment from the current Biden-Harris administration. For 89-year old Michigander Ms. Edl, her potential sentence of 10 years in federal prison for peacefully demonstrating outside an abortion facility is pending.

I recently connected with one of the pro-life prisoners behind bars. I unexpectedly received a collect call from a federal prison, and it was from Lauren Handy. Ms. Handy is the pro-life protester who demonstrated outside of a Washington, D.C. abortion center. The now-infamous center that may have violated federal law with illegal abortion procedures on the bodies of the DC Five. These are five children who were killed through late-term abortion, thrown in a box, and sent to medical waste. Ms. Handy was given the box from the medical waste provider, opened it, and was horrified to discover the formed bodies of five late-term abortion victims. Ms. Handy explained to me what happened that fateful day and how there’s still no investigation from the federal government, despite repeated calls from Congress.

It’s important to note that these imprisoned pro-lifers each have different life stories but they all have one thing in common – they are victims of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ politicized DOJ. Rather than fixing rampant crime in American cities, the Biden-Harris Department of Justice spent the past four years hyper-focused on weaponizing its government against peaceful protestors, including grandmas and young moms who were praying at abortion facilities.

This holiday will not be comforting for those Americans who have been unfairly targeted for their political and personal beliefs. But there is a new administration on the horizon and if they can hold on to hope, I suspect there’s reason for great optimism.

President Trump was recently informed of grandmother Paulette Harlow’s tragic sentencing and he issued a statement. He said, “Paulette is one of many peaceful pro-lifers who Joe Biden has rounded up, sometimes with SWAT teams, and thrown them in jail…we will rapidly review the cases of every political prisoner who’s unjustly victimized by the Biden regime, including Paulette, so we can get them out of the gulags and back to their families where they belong.”

Even though Americans, like Paulette, will spend their holidays in prison simply because they have deeply held views that are different from the current regime…I still see room for hope. That’s because President Trump has signaled that he will not forget them this holiday season.

And sometimes, hope and a promise are the best kinds of gifts we can receive. In this case, that gift comes in the form of a pledge.

As President Trump put it, “We’re going to get that taken care of immediately — [on the] first day.”
