Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 06:00:02 GMT

ST. LOUIS - The St. Louis Blues are in a bit of a fluid situation with their first-round draft picks heading into their season finale against the Dallas Stars. The Blues fell short of playoff contention for just the second time in the last 12 years this season. The season ends Thursday with the road end of a back-to-back games against the Dallas Stars. With every NHL playoff spot now clinched as of Wednesday night, the game might be viewed as essentially meaningless to some.

Greg Abbott has banned abortions after six weeks of gestation – only days after a woman’s elevated hormones are the only indication she is pregnant.Miller came to Colorado for the procedureThen she bravely shared her story with the Colorado General Assembly, begging lawmakers to protect her medical records from Texas prosecutors and abortion bounty hunters who can file civil lawsuits.Days after she testified, Miller gave birth to a healthy baby boy. We hope he grows up knowing his mother is a selfless champion for what is right.This is wh...
