You might be watching the RNC tonight and wondering “who are these people?” Well, let me tell you a little about former Bryan/College Station resident. Abby Johnson.
She came to fame as a Planned Parenthood Director turned Pro-Life Activist. She tells the story of seeing an ultrasound, realizing how horrible her actions were, and seeing the light. Nice scripted scripted story, a little too scripted…
Turns out that
1) She was worried about getting fired due to poor job performance
2) Lied about the date of the ultrasound she witnessed
3) Immediately profited off of her resignation https://www.texasmonthly.com/politics/the-convert/">https://www.texasmonthly.com/politics/...

Few other fun facts about her:
1) Believes women shouldn’t have the right to vote (not all women though! Just the married ones whose husband would get to vote for them) https://19thnews.org/2020/08/on-eve-of-suffrage-centennial-milestone-rnc-to-feature-speaker-supporting-policies-barring-women-from-voting/">https://19thnews.org/2020/08/o...

As a native of Bryan/College Station, I’m always happen to see us in the news. But does it have to be her?
