Business Insider even published a piece classifying Rubio\u2019s questions as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/weird-email-marco-rubio-sent-asked-lindsey-grahams-abortion-bill-2022-9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201ccombative.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemocrats get away with murder, literally. They are never pushed to answer specific questions about where they stand on the taking of human life,\u201d Rubio said in a statement. \u201cThe truth is that every single Democrat supports taxpayer funded abortion without any restrictions up until the moment a child is born. That is the truth, but Democrats never have to explain their radical position, because the press is all too willing to cover for them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rubio is right. The corporate press is not just failing to ask tough questions. Media outlets are deliberately refusing to ask key questions because they know doing so will expose Democrats\u2019 abortion views for what they are: unpopular, unjust, and extreme.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no benefit to asking Democrats tough questions because their readers\u2014the people that pay their salaries\u2014don\u2019t want to hear it. Besides, they agree with the Democrats anyway,\u201d Rubio continued. <\/p>\n<p>Democrats\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/08\/18\/these-vulnerable-dems-wont-say-if-they-support-unpopular-unfettered-abortion-but-theyve-backed-it-before\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">radical track record when it comes to abortion<\/a> is no secret. They want to push unlimited abortions in all 50 states and will stop at nothing, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.texastribune.org\/2022\/06\/30\/joe-biden-filibuster-roe-wade\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">including the filibuster<\/a>, to ensure it happens.  <\/p>\n<p>Yet, while voters are busy trying to cover their increasingly expensive grocery bills, wondering how they will pay for electricity this month, and thinking about which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxbusiness.com\/politics\/inflation-drives-voters-polls-november\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2022 midterm candidates<\/a> will help lower prices at the pump, the press is aiding Democrats in their mission to make their radical abortion campaign national by ignoring the vilest, most obvious premise of that campaign. <\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not just a dereliction of duty, that\u2019s purposeful enabling of the left\u2019s abortion propaganda without remorse. <\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<p>\n  Jordan Boyd is a staff writer at The Federalist and co-producer of The Federalist Radio Hour.
