Pro-abortion activists like to keep their rhetoric about the procedure shrouded in euphemisms and buzzwords because the more people know about abortion, the more they are repulsed by it.
NPR played audio of a woman getting an abortion at 11 weeks of pregnancy, with the narrator noting that most abortions in Michigan occur before 13 weeks. In other words, this is a normal abortion procedure. We are given inspired words from NPR reporter Kate Wells about how “it is often women guiding other women” through the procedure. Then you hear the vacuum start.
I almost didn’t want to tweet this but it’s something everyone needs to know. NPR on the radio this morning played audio of a woman getting an abortion. You can hear the vacuum turning on, crying, moaning, and the doctor telling her it’s done.

‘THEY HAVE BINKIES’: TIM RYAN PRESSED ON LATE-TERM ABORTION DURING OHIO SENATE TOWN HALL
Most of the procedure is cut out of the audio, and Wells talks over part of what is left, but the sound of the vacuum being used to remove pieces of the unborn child is unmistakable, as is the sound of pain from the woman getting the abortion. Then, you hear the celebratory praise from the abortionists after the abortion is over. The now-dead child has been vacuumed away. High-fives everyone!
Here is how the United Kingdom’s National Health Service describes an unborn baby at 11 weeks of pregnancy: “The head is still supersized, but the body is growing quickly. The fingers and toes are separating out. There are tiny fingernails and miniature ears.” The baby is also “kicking around inside your womb.”
Unless, of course, he or she has been vacuumed into a trash can.
Wells shadowed abortionists at a clinic in Michigan for nine days, and while she took umbrage with the idea that her account was biased, it is very clearly written with a pro-abortion slant. But she made one good point: “I’d argue that getting to see what’s actually happening in clinics right now isn’t biased, it’s factual.”
Hi Chris, thanks for your response. I have to disagree that doing a story inside an abortion clinic is somehow “pro-abortion.” Abortion is on the ballot in Nov. I’d argue that getting to see what’s actually happening in clinics right now isn’t biased, it’s factual.

I couldn’t agree more. No amount of euphemistic language and talking points trotted out by activists and Democratic politicians about “choice” and “the right to an abortion” can beat out the sound of the vacuum being turned on in the audio Wells captured. The more light that shines on exactly what abortions do to an unborn child, the stronger the pro-life position becomes.
If anything, Wells didn’t include enough audio or details about the procedure, as she describes the vacuum as using “gentle suction to remove the pregnancy tissue … through a thin tube.” Listening to the “roar of noise” that comes from the vacuum, listeners can imagine that it is nowhere near as gentle for the “pregnancy tissue” that has its own fingers, fingernails, toes, and ears.

That knowledge, combined with the knowledge of the development of an unborn child, makes people more squeamish about abortion. It should. It’s a barbaric practice with the express goal of ending the life of a human child. The more people know about it, the more they will realize that reality. NPR should do its journalistic duty and provide everyone with the full audio of such a procedure so we can see how people’s positions shift as the vacuum runs.
