President Joe Biden\u2019s handlers want you to believe he values life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a few days before Christmas, the White House announced, through an\u00a0online written statement<\/a>, that all but three people on federal death row will have their sentences commuted from a death sentence to life without the possibility of parole. The move saves the lives of 37 of the 40 prolific killers facing the federal death penalty, freeing them from unsettling thoughts about their last day at the hands of an execution team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden is on a high-profile virtue-signaling roll. Last week Biden had a phone call <\/a>with Pope Francis \u201cto discuss efforts to advance peace around the world during the holiday season,\u201d the White House handlers wrote in a statement, conspicuously leaving out the Christ-based name of the holiday: Christmas. \u201cThe President thanked the Pope for his continued advocacy to alleviate global suffering, including his work to advance human rights and protect religious freedoms. President Biden also graciously accepted His Holiness Pope Francis\u2019s invitation to visit the Vatican next month.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we know Biden does not care about human rights. He has worked to expand<\/a> abortion access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Just last month in the White House, he awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation\u2019s highest civilian honor, to Cecile Richards, former president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America and of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund. During her period of leadership (2006 to 2018), more than 13.3 million unborn babies were killed in the United States, as The Federalist previously reported<\/a>. Richards earned $500,000 a year and facilitated more deaths than there were in the Holocaust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Killing voiceless, innocent babies does not stir Biden\u2019s conscience, but killing killers does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMake no mistake: I condemn these murderers, grieve for the victims of their despicable acts, and ache for all the families who have suffered unimaginable and irreparable loss,\u201d read Biden\u2019s four-paragraph online statement (which was coherent and thus likely prepared by a staff member). According to the statement, the decision to commute these death sentences was \u201cguided by [Biden\u2019s] conscience,\u201d and he is \u201cmore convinced than ever that we must stop the use of the death penalty at the federal level.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement came from the opulent White House, currently decorated with sparkling Christmas trees traditionally used to celebrate the birth of Christ. But in today\u2019s American culture, the unborn Jesus we anticipate in Advent would be at risk of death by abortion. His story would never be told.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden\u2019s administration has committed to saving killers and killing saviors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because in so many ways, all children are saviors to the people who love them. Babies change everything. They come, whether parents are ready or not, in all sorts of complicated ways: before marriage; before graduation; in a car on the way to the hospital; in a lowly, starlit manger far from home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pregnancy and birth are the start of a story that will include hardships and the most incredible rewards. Having children changes you. Even the most flawed parents can have hope that their children will do better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden\u2019s Christmas reward for death-row murderers does nothing for the victims or the inmates. It will hopefully be the last time this vapid president squanders an opportunity to move the nation in a more loving direction.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than protecting the agents of death, Biden could have led an effort to change our culture into one that recognizes the humanity of the unborn. He could have developed policies that encourage women in complicated pregnancies to allow their babies to live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, Biden and his handlers leave a dark legacy that celebrates evil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
