A national 15-week abortion ban has now been proposed by U.S. Republican Senator Lindsay Graham

The proposal, dubbed the “Protecting Pain-capable Unborn Children from Late-term Abortions Act” comes despite backlash towards the Supreme Court’s recent overturning of Roe v. Wade.

“America’s got to make some decisions,”
Lindsay Graham, U.S. Senator

New polling shows 57 per cent of Americans disapprove of this decision, with 62 per cent believing abortion should be legal in all or most cases.

Graham’s proposal comes just 60 days before the nation’s midterm elections.

The proposed Act has almost no chance of becoming law, even if the Republicans do win back control of the Senate and the House come November.

To oppose this legislation takes you out of the mainstream of the world.

The Democrat desire for abortion on demand up until the moment of birth puts us in a club of seven that includes North Korea and China.

Meanwhile, the Democrats will likely use this to fire up their supporter base.

The proposed Act follows a number of Republican states see recent attempts at tightening abortion bans falter.

However, Graham is sticking by his agenda.

Disney invests $1 billion in OpenAI for AI-generated videos featuring iconic characters, enhancing fan interactions and launching in 2026.

Disney is taking AI to the next level, investing $1 billion in OpenAI to create a licensing deal that allows users to generate videos featuring more than 200 characters from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar. This partnership could redefine how fans interact with their favorite characters.

The deal will let users stream short AI-generated videos directly on Disney+, and ChatGPT will also produce images of Disney’s licensed characters. However, the agreement excludes talent likenesses or voices, keeping human performances separate.

Set to launch in 2026, the collaboration also gives Disney warrants to purchase additional OpenAI equity and use AI tools for product development, opening doors to new creative opportunities.
