VP Pence Meets With Pro-Life Students, Praises
Their �Courage, Character, And Conviction�
Pro-lifers should be able to rest comfortably
by now in knowing they have a friend in the
Trump administration.
Last week, as feminists prepared to don their
vulgar hats in service of an incoherent march,
pro-lifers were preparing to mourn the anniversary
of Roe v. Wade with the March for Life.
According to Kristan Hawkins, President of
Students for Life of America, Vice President
Mike Pence spoke with more than 13 student
group leaders of the organization last Thursday,
where he praised them for their �courage,
the character, and conviction.�
LifeNews reports that Pence and his wife were
�moved� by student leaders.
Hawkins called it �an incredible feeling�
as Pence made remarks on the March for Life
while �actually holding one of the children
that one of our students so courageously chose
life for, she was pregnant in high school.�
Hawkins was referring to Maddie Runkles, �a
teen whose private Christian high school tried
to kick her out and then barred her from attending
their graduation ceremony after she became
pregnant,� according to LifeNews.
Israeli President Reuven Rivlin warmly welcomed
Vice President Mike Pence to Jerusalem during
his trip to the Middle East on Tuesday.
�You are very proud, always, to stand very
firm behind your words, in words and in action,�
said Rivlin.
�And for that, we have only one word to
describe you: You are a mensch.�
Before heading to a bilateral meeting, the
two leaders sat down for a press conference
� and Rivlin had nothing but praise for
both Pence and President Trump, particularly
for the decision to move the U.S. embassy
to Jerusalem.
�Now, in America, probably they know what
is the meaning of mensch,� said Rivlin.
�But for those people in Israel who doesn�t
know American, or Yiddish, I would say, a
mensch is a real human being.
And we are very proud to have you along with
us.�
Rivlin spoke about growing up in Jerusalem
before praising the United States� decision
to recognize the city as Israel�s capital.
The Algemeiner reports: Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu warmly welcomed the arrival
in Israel on Sunday of US Vice President Mike
Pence.

of Israel will arrive in Israel, a true friend,
US Vice President Mike Pence,� Netanyahu
