👏🏻 “I know a lady in Florida named Penny. She survived multiple abortion attempts.
She was left discarded in a pan. Fortunately, her grandmother saved her and brought her to a different hospital.
We're better than what the Democrats are selling.”

“The story of Penny found in the pan by DeSantis is ludicrous, and obviously untrue,” claimed Lincoln Project co-founder Steve Schmidt. “It should be looked into by the media.”
The leftist online outlet Jezebel headlined its coverage of the story: “Asked About Abortion, Ron DeSantis Tells Bizarre Story About a Fetus in a Pan.” Though Jezebel admits that Hopper and her story are real, the outlet condemns her story as never having “been fact-checked, probably because it includes no actual facts to check.” …
In an interview posted by the pro-life group “Faces of Choice,” [Penny] Hopper shared how her mother went to a local clinic in 1956, when she was 23 weeks pregnant, “extremely ill” and “experiencing spotting”—indicating something was likely amiss with her baby (Hopper).
