Thread by which I will likely commit career suicide by confronting the #1 clicked on website in "conservative media" -- yet I'm so mad at what's being done to #AlfieEvans I don't care.
So @DRUDGE_REPORT has been the #1 website in conservative media for years. There is NOTHING on its front page about Alfie losing his latest appeal to stave off execution by the state.
Nothing.
Not a damned thing.
But Drudge does have the following headlines trending:

I'm torn on the #AlfieEvans case. On the one hand, it's clear that he managed remarkably better than all the doctors expected when he was taken off ventilation (nine hours breathing by himself). The consensus was the deprivation of support would lead to rapid deterioration. 1/n
On the other hand, when you read the medical evidence from the court case (from both "sides") it's clear that their is no cognitive brain function in Alfie and little chance it will return. Any "responses" from him are not even reflex. 2/n
It's clear the only path forward is palliative - even the Italian and German hospitals offering care accept this. The question is really where will #AlfieEvans die and how soon? It's a sobering thought. 3/n
Right up until #AlfieEvans was born, the Left would insist his mother had the absolute right to choose if he'd live or die.
Now, when she's pleading with the State to let him live, they insist she has no right to choose life.

NEW: My thoughts on #AlfieEvans and the Christian Leaders who ALWAYS leave innocents for dead when the Secular Left attacks:
Let’s name the evil we’re dealing with: What’s happening to #AlfieEvans is SECULAR LEFTISM.
Many folks going "Don't use #Alfie to score political points!" are saying that because they themselves are invested in Leftism to some degree. They're defensive. 1/?
