Gretchen Whitmer / PHOTO: AP ( John McCann , Headline USA ) A pro-abortion Michigan judge has preserved abortion practices in the state through an injunction, while local prosecutors have vowed to ignore what critics call a flawed and biased injunction and said they will prosecute abortionists in accordance with state law.
Michigan’s legislation on abortion has a twisty past. Prior to the Roe v. Wade ruling, the Wolverine state had passed a law back in 1931 effectively banning the practice. After the Roe ruling in 1973, this law went dormant. Now that Roe is gone, many prosecuting attorneys in the state have argued that the old law is back in place.
These attorneys face opposition from Michigan state Judge Elizabeth Gleicher and Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer . After the Dobbs ruling , Judge Gleicher granted a preliminary injunction to keep the 1931 from becoming active. The suit was filed by Planned Parenthood of Michigan, according to Townhall.
Gleicher’s injunction stated that the 1931 law “likely violates the Michigan constitution.”
It’s no surprise she reached that conclusion, critics argued. Gleicher has a lengthy track-record regarding abortion advocacy, and has been a regular donor to Planned Parenthood.
Somehow, however, despite this clear bias Gleicher was allowed to preside over the injunction suit. Whitmer has also filed suit in order to keep abortion legal in the state.
Despite these headwinds, local attorneys are determined to curtail the judge’s ruling and follow the 1931 law.
“I do not believe it proper for me to simply ignore a law, any law, that was passed by the Michigan Legislature and signed by the Governor,” Grand Rapids public prosecutor Christopher Becker said in a statement.“I have always held it would be improper for me to pick and choose the laws I wish to enforce that have been validly passed and signed.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
