YouTuber Jesse Ridgway and his wife abort their child after finding out the baby had Down syndrome. Ridgway cited that they chose to kill the baby after deciding that he and his wife didn't want to be inconvenienced with a child with Down syndrome. "Things have been pretty dark for a while for us, and we felt this was gonna be a nice little ray of sunshine, and it's not." Horrific and selfish. An estimated 67% - 85% of pregnancies in the U.S. with a Down syndrome diagnosis are aborted. This is evil. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

This whole story about Jesse Ridgway and his wife, choosing to publicly announce the termination of their unborn baby because it has down syndrome makes me so upset and disappointed in humanity. Sorry that baby wasn’t “perfect“ enough for you guys! That baby deserved to live!

“We’ve seen the darkest side of humanity through this process” - Jesse Ridgway on TMZ The lack of sell awareness is astonishing. The “darkest side of humanity” is justifying the murder of your child because it would likely have Down syndrome, while monetizing off of it… You talk about fearing for your lives, when the most terrifying thing is being a child in a womb in America. Your wife nonchalantly said killing an unborn child is just a “common thing that happens”. That’s darker than empty death threats. (PS: No, I still don’t believe they should be receiving death threats) 🎥: TMZ

This is so sad and awful. We CAN'T stand silently by. Research shows 99% of people with Down syndrome are happy with their lives, and their families love them. Families deserve truthful information & support. People with Down syndrome deserve to live. They should never be targets for discrimination, inside the womb or out. Period.

🚨 Heartbreaking and disturbing: YouTuber Jesse Ridgway (McJuggerNuggets) and his wife Ashley Ridgway chose to abort their unborn child after a Down syndrome diagnosis — then released a statement last night condemning critics, calling them “trashy,” accusing them of hate and vitriol, and defending her as a “badass.” Every life has value. Children with Down syndrome bring immense joy, love, and strength to families who embrace them. This wasn’t an “impossible choice” — it was the rejection of a child based on a disability. Lashing out at the public for grieving that decision while demanding acceptance shows a troubling mindset. All children deserve a chance at life. Let’s celebrate and support families raising kids with Down syndrome, not normalize discarding them. Please say a prayer for the aborted child. 🙏🏼 (Video: AI)

A brother reads a letter to his baby brother with Down syndrome. Most people like Zach are aborted in the womb due to their extra chromosome. This is proof that, regardless of what culture says, people with Down syndrome aren’t “burdens” to eradicate, but gifts to be embraced.

Jesse Watters: "The 25th Amendment, impeachment, war crimes—are [Democrats] serious about this stuff, or is that just politics?" Sen. Fetterman: "Sure, there are some of them who are serious about those things, but...it's not going anywhere because they certainly won't have the votes to do those kinds of things...Why can't we just root for our military? Why can't we just say I don't have to agree [with] everything the President has done or the kind of things that he says, but we should be on the side of America and we should be on the sides of civilization and the free world. And I'm on that side and I don't know why I'm the only Democrat that says those kinds of things at this point."

I've known and talked with Jesse Ridgway for years as a fellow creator, and my heart goes out to him and his wife during this incredibly difficult time. They recently shared the deeply personal decision they had to make regarding their pregnancy. It's a situation that brings up a lot of emotions and perspectives. I wanted to share this here because we've all followed their journey for so long. Let's keep the conversation respectful in the comments
