Remember this summer when the Biden administration’s “Operation Fly Formula” was importing baby formula from Switzerland?
“pro life” but no baby formula on the shelves? yeah okay.

Who’s in charge again? The White House suggested that new parents ask for free samples of baby formula from their pediatricians.
Now there’s also a diaper shortage, and Yahoo Finance wants you to know that the anti-abortion crowd isn’t helping matters any:

Sandra Salathe reports:
“It’s very disturbing that a pool of funds like Temporary Assistance for Needy Families is not going directly towards needy families,” [Equity Forward Director Ashley] Underwood said. “It’s going towards funding these propaganda machines. That’s the best way to describe these anti-abortion centers.”
Underwood stressed that there needs to be a proper system that supports both parenting and individuals who are currently pregnant.
“Instead of funneling money into these programs that have been more propaganda than services, we really need to be taking a close look in how we can create an infrastructure that supports parenting and supports pregnant people, and supports people to be able to make the reproductive decisions that are best for them,” she said. “We just don’t have that.”
The whole thing was a hit piece against Heartbeat International using one source: Equity Forward, “an accountability organization that produces investigative research related to gender equity and sexual and reproductive health.” After the piece was published, of course, Yahoo Finance updated it to include comment from Heartbeat International.
This has to be a joke

Single woman with no children thinks you should kill your babies to lower the demand of diapers
— Mostly Peaceful Memes (@MostlyPeacefull) October 15, 2022
What the hell is wrong with you?
To answer a supply chain issue by saying not enough people are killing their offspring is a ghoulish take.

Truly heinous. Product shortage? Just kill those who need the product!
— Rightly Wicked (@RightlyWicked4U) October 15, 2022
Not reading your clickbait trash, just understanding you think slaughtering children is a solution to any product shortage is demonic.

Salathe is an editor for Yahoo Finance and evidently a horrible person who shouldn’t be in journalism.
