Today is the March for Life, the annual pro-life demonstration that takes place around the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision. In a first, President Trump addressed the rally via satellite from the Rose Garden. (George W. Bush addressed the group over the phone.) It's worth considering Trump's record on abortion, especially since he was once pro-choice, a year into office. So far, so good.

But being pro-life isn't just about focusing on the evils of abortion, the are other facets, too. Like being against euthanasia, for example. Bill McMorris, one of America's best young long-form writers, has a compelling look at the final days of J.J. Hanson, an activist with terminal cancer who opposed euthanasia. Take a few minutes to reflect on the life of a great American hero.

Speaking of life... A popular anonymous Twitter account known as AtticusGF revealed himself earlier this week. Why? His infant daughter, Mickey, is in need of costly surgery to repair a congenital deformity in her throat. Mickey's a few weeks younger than my new twins and I and Atticus (Adam) would sometimes chat about the insecurities we had as soon-to-be first time-time dads. He also kept his followers updated on Mickey, but as her problems emerged, family and friends set up Meal Trains and GoFundMes. But they were only known to those who knew Adam's identity. People of the Internet wanted to help.

It's hard to keep a secret on the internet forever, and Adam decided to throw his anonymity away to help his daughter. Something any father would do. The response from Twitter has been amazing, and Adam, a student, and his wife, a teacher, have been blessed by the generosity of hundreds of strangers. Including, as political Twitter requires, people who frequently butt heads with him. The Internet can be a messy place, but sometimes, it's not all bad.

Amazon HQ2 desperation increases. Amazon recently announced its 20 finalists for its second U.S. headquarters. Cities and states had offered some pretty silly deals to attract the mega-retailer. Which was perfect fodder for my good friend Andrew Heaton and his colleagues at Reason to make a satirical mockumentary involving two fictional mayors competing for HQ2.

The Final Year, a documentary about President Obama's last year in office, comes out today. And over at the Washington Free Beacon, contributing editor Matt Continetti tackles part of it in his most recent column. Former U.N. Ambassador Samantha Power's big regret? Allowing HBO to record her election night party. As Continetti observes: "Facepalm."
