Colorado congressional candidate and sitting State Rep. Richard Holtorf ® received a tough grilling this week at the hands of local 9News anchor Kyle Clark over his apparent hypocrisy when it comes to abortion rights.

Holtorf made headlines back in January when he defended paying for his girlfriend’s abortion, despite being an adamant pro-life lawmaker and abortion critic. “Anti-abortion GOP lawmaker praises the impact of the abortion he paid for,” read the headline of a local report by Clark from the beginning of the year.

To his credit, Holtorf sat down with Clark to discuss the issue.

    That’s the thing, isn’t it? Literally nobody wants one. But Repubs keep telling lies like women choose abortion as their primary means of birth control.

      Fr I’ve seen so many people claim women will get em willy nilly. Like no, that shit is a last resort.

      Because it’s never been about protecting the unborn for the actual politicians, it’s always been about controlling women.
