INDIANA ABORTIONS CRASH TO NEAR ZERO
“They have no case,” the defense attorney said of a victim named Baby Boy A, “because it was killed in utero.” Kermit Gosnell injected a poison into the woman’s abdomen, his attorney argued, “to prevent a live birth. That was the goal of Dr. Gosnell with [the mother’s] consent: to kill the baby in utero.”
That was the heart of Gosnell’s defense. The attorney, John McMahon, built his closing arguments around those claims. It didn’t work. Gosnell, a late-term abortionist, was convicted of killing babies and causing the death of one mother. I will have more to say later this week about Gosnell, who died on Monday, but for now I want to point out something.
Search the internet for those quotations from Gosnell’s attorney: “Every one of those babies died in utero” and  “that was the goal of Dr. Gosnell … to kill the baby in utero.”

Paul Revere's Midnight Ride (1775)April 18, 2026
American patriot Paul Revere was a member of the Sons of Liberty and a participant in the Boston Tea Party, but he is chiefly remembered for his late-night horseback ride to warn the Massachusetts colonists that British soldiers were setting forth on the mission that, as it turned out, began the American Revolution. Two others also rode out with the news, but it is Revere who is celebrated as the midnight rider, despite having been captured before reaching his final destination. Why is this?

James McCune Smith (1813)April 18, 2026
Smith was the first African American to obtain a medical degree and operate a pharmacy in the US. Denied admission to American colleges due to racial discrimination, he studied in Scotland, obtaining a series of degrees. After returning to New York, he became the first professionally trained black physician in the country. He wrote forcefully against common misconceptions and false notions about race, science, and medicine and once used statistics to refute what argument about slaves?

Zimbabwe Independence DayApril 18, 2026
Like much of Africa, the area that is now Zimbabwe was long controlled by Europeans. In 1922, the 34,000 European settlers chose to become a self-governing British colony, Southern Rhodesia. In 1923, Southern Rhodesia was annexed by the British Crown. A fight for independence took place in the 1970s. An independent constitution was written for Zimbabwe in London in 1979, and independence followed on April 18, 1980. Independence Day is celebrated in every city and district of the nation with political rallies, parades, traditional dances, singing, and fireworks.

The Percy-Neville FeudApril 18, 2026
The Percy-Neville Feud was a string of skirmishes between two prominent northern English families and their followers that helped provoke the Wars of the Roses—a series of dynastic civil wars between supporters of the Houses of Lancaster and York in the 15th century. Six months after the Nevilles allied themselves with Richard, Duke of York—rival of the Lancastrian King Henry VI—the Percys met the Nevilles and the Duke in the first battle at St. Albans. What was the original reason for the feud?
