In the last few years, more than a dozen states have enacted laws that ban almost all abortions. Some include exceptions for rape, incest, and to protect the life of the mother. But a small, vocal group of anti-abortion activists say even these exceptions are morally wrong. They want to see a ban not only on all abortions but also on some fertility treatments, including IVF. They believe an embryo deserves the same rights as any human.On this episode of The Sunday Story from Up First, NPR's Sarah McCammon takes us to a protest outside an IVF clinic and talks to activists who call themselves "abortion abolitionists." These activists say their goal is to turn their beliefs into policy and are heartened by the progress they've made.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Israel's assassination of Hassan Nasrallah — who led Hezbollah for more than 30 years — has been met with mixed reactions in the region. In Israel, there have been celebrations, even as people prepare for the possibility of retaliation.

Nasrallah's death raises questions about who will fill a power void at the top of what the US considers a terrorist organization.

How fortunate for Israelis that they are even able to leave.
I just couldn't even finish listening to this, it made me so angry. "Dude, man up. Can't afford to have a kid? Sell your gaming equipment." What an ignorant, sanctimonious moron. Because obviously that's the answer. And for those who don't play video games or where birth control failed? Is that what should be said to them? Shame on these people. Using their religion to cast aspersion on others. I'm sure Jesus is well-pleased with their judgment of others.
jobs report was BS. mostly government jobs at taxpayers expense. the rest part time minimum wage.. you people need to do your homework before posting such nonsense.
