    President Joe Biden's (D) Secretary of Education said during a White House event Tuesday afternoon that college students needed to have access to abortions to be able to be successful in life.

    The remarks from Secretary Miguel Cardona came during the second meeting of the administration's Task Force on Reproductive Health Care Access.

    Reuters reported that the meeting centered around how some women "cannot access abortion services" along with other issues surrounding the issue of reproduction.

    "As I share your grave concerns about maintaining access to contraception and reproductive health services on our college campuses and ensuring there's accurate and reliable information for students and for educators," Cardona said as he sat next to Biden. "Students need access to health care to thrive in school and in life, and that includes reproductive health care."

    "Thank you also to Vice President Harris. In August, we met with college leaders grappling with new sweeping restrictions to their states. Our work together is ongoing," he added. "It's clear the Dobbs ruling has sown fear and confusion on our college campuses."

    During the meeting, Biden urged colleges not to add additional restrictions on students, saying, "My message to any other colleges considering enacting policies like this: Don't. Please don't."

    "Folks, what century are we in? What are we doing? I respect everyone's view on this, personal decisions they make, but my Lord, we're talking about contraception here," Biden claimed. "It shouldn't be that controversial, but this is what it looks like when you start to take away the right of privacy."

    At the end of the press conference, Biden appeared to be annoyed by reporters who were trying to ask him questions as they were being shuffled out of the room.

    "Among the only press in the world that does this," Biden smirked as his staff talked over reporters. "Seriously."

With Roe v Wade (originated in 1973) overturned by the US Supreme Court, thereby allowing decisions on abortion legislation completely returned to the states: Where do you find your position on such a "Life and Death" issue for the American People?

  Yes, I approve of the US Supreme Court's decision to reinstate this "medical" issue back to the states' legislative responsibility to regulate.

  No, I believe that every woman should have complete access to abortion on demand.

  This issue is far beyond my intellectual capacity to understand.

With respect to the leaked opinion not yet written for ratification regarding the U.S. Supreme Court's revisiting the original decision of Roe v Wade, whence now nonstop protests have erupted in neighborhoods where U.S. Supreme Court justices live, exhibiting the firm intent to intimidate these officers of the highest court in the land: What action should the federal authorities take?

  Do nothing ... Protests are a fixture of a free society.

  Enforce the law ... Federal codes exist to prohibit any intimidation through the pubic harassment of federal judges, especially Supreme Court justices.

  I have no idea, however, northern Virginia School Board Members must be shielded from protests at all costs.
