Montana Nazis fundraise for anti-abortion movement

According to a posting on a popular white supremacist website, Gaede said she's given to Hope Pregnancy Ministries in the past, and it is a good way to "help save White babies." She stated a fundraising mailing from the Ministries said a local donor would match all donations dollar for dollar.

Gaede's posting continued by saying she has "personally met many of these people" (Ministries' staff). She told her peers to tell staff members that they were supporters of Stormfront, the white supremacist website where Gaede made her request, when making a donation. She included the mailing address and website address for the Ministries. Gaede encouraged her fellow white supremacists to send funds, because "our local population is over 95% White so they would be pretty much guaranteed to be helping to save White babies."

Hope Pregnancy Ministries essentially set up fake medical clinics - which aren't staffed by medical professionals, but instead are created as lures to persuade pregnant women not to have abortions.

As the report points out, this isn't the first time that the anti-abortion movement and Montana white supremacists allied. Montana Right to Life endorsed self-identified Nazi state house candidate, Shawn Stuart. The organization later admitted Stuart shouldn't have been endorsed when it became clear that the National Socialist Movement supports "eugenic abortions for non-whites." MHRN:

In other words, the National Socialist Movement, like April Gaede and other white supremacists, only oppose abortion when it comes to "white babies." Otherwise, they support abortion and sterilization for women of color.

Given the views of Gaede and her peers, the Montana Human Rights Network has asked Hope Pregnancy Ministries to donate the money raised by Stormfront members to the Montana Indian Education Association.

We'll have to wait and see if Kalispell's pro-life community values fetuses of color as much as they do those that are white.

Update: Apparently saving white babies isn't the only item on Gaede's agenda: she's also interested in creating them.
