Tim Walz has, on several occasions, implied that he and his wife used IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment to have their first daughter, Hope.
And by several occasions, I mean several occasions.
Tim never says outright that he and his wife used IVF, he simply implies it so that later when you call him on his lie he can say he never lied.
Respect, Tim, that's a gangster move.
Well, here's the news from today:
Minnesota first lady Gwen Walz was forced to clarify late Monday that she used a different fertilization procedure — intrauterine insemination — to conceive their two children.
Both IVF and IUI are assisted reproductive technologies, but IUI is when sperm is injected into the woman's uterus around the time of ovulation, while IVF entails the fertilization of an egg and sperm in a lab dish.
IUI is a completely different procedure which doesn't result in the trashing of multiple embryos.
IVF takes and fertilizes eggs outside the woman's body, then inserts some of them back in with the hope that at least one embryo will survive. Millions of embryos - unique little human beings - are discarded in the process (there are over one million frozen in storage as well).
There's a big difference there!!
So it turns out Tim was bending the truth — a lot — in order to gain a few votes.
But I guess that's just what Democrats do.
For the record, Tim, IVF is banned in literally one state (Alabama). Abortion is now a states' rights issue, so if that makes you mad, I don't know what to tell you.
