INTERVIEW | Pro-Life Pediatrician Reveals Full Story Behind Cyberattack

Published: May 5, 2023, 7 a.m.

The American College of Pediatricians scored a major victory last month when a federal judge ruled in its favor and halted the Food and Drug Administration\u2019s approval of mifepristone, a drug used in chemical abortions.\nJust weeks later, the organization endured a cyberattack carried out by hackers intending to cause major damage. As if that wasn\u2019t enough, news of the hack was then leaked to a hostile journalist in a fleeting attempt to damage the organization\u2019s reputation.\nSince the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year, pro-life institutions and individuals have faced sustained attacks. The militant group Jane\u2019s Revenge vandalized pregnancy resource centers, the FBI arrested a pro-life father in Pennsylvania, and a deranged pro-abortion man plotted an assassination attempt on Justice Brett Kavanaugh.\nThese unrelenting attacks show no sign of abating. Look no further than the latest assault on the American College of Pediatricians, also known as ACPeds.\nDr. Jill Simons, executive director of the American College of Pediatricians, joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to explain what happened and why she\u2019s not backing down from her mission to defend life and protect the most vulnerable in our society.\n Hosted on Acast.
