NBC News reporter Jo Ling Kent adopted the radical leftist term for mothers – ‘birthing people’ – and argued the economic impacts of the Supreme Court’s abortion ruling will be “devastating.”
Kent’s comments are an indication of how unserious our country has become.

She began by lamenting how motherhood “costs” the economy billions of dollars per year because it “reduces the labor force participation rate.”
Kent also pointed out that earnings are lower for those who have children.
“Birthing people who are seeking an abortion and have to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term are four times likelier to live below the federal poverty level, according to the University of California at San Francisco,” she said.

Not content to use the phrase just once, NBC reporter Jo Ling Kent, went on to mention “birthing people” a second time and then a third with a slight twist.
“If the birthing parent is able to travel and if they work for the right company and are seeking an abortion – more individuals we’re seeing are going to have to rely on their employer, right, for that financial support to carry that out,” she surmised.

Interestingly enough, adopting the ‘woke’ terminology seems to be a new phase for Kent. Here she is in a report on COVID vaccines and how they may affect pregnant “women.”
“As an expecting Mom myself, this is a question on my mind a lot and on the minds of millions of pregnant and nursing women all across America,” Kent says.
The NBC segment from just a year ago repeatedly refers to ‘science’ and “moms to be,” “women,” “mothers,” and “our pregnancy.”
No signs anywhere of the phrase “birthing people.”

Jo Ling Kent’s adoption of the phrase “birthing people” is typical in a left-wing bubble where the desire is more about drawing attention to oneself as being ‘woke’ and therefore ultimately more accepting of others than it is about focusing on facts and say, reality.
That’s why its usage is usually found amongst people typically known for simply creating terms and facts out of thin air.
Like Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) who has described women as “menstruating people.”
“What this is about is controlling women’s bodies, & controlling people who are not cisgender men. This is about making sure that someone like me .. or any menstruating person … cannot make decisions over their own body” pic.twitter.com/ttLc7Ow4PX
Or fellow Squad member Representative Cori Bush (D-MO), who herself defined mothers as “birthing people.”
