Mark: TODAY ON

"NEWSWATCH," PRESIDENT

TRUMP ORDERS AIRSTRIKES ON

SYRIA AFTER CHEMICAL

ATTACKS ON CIVILIANS.

REACTION FROM CAPITOL HILL

TO THE MIDDLE EAST.

> PLUS...FINAL SHOWDOWN

IN THE SENATE OVER THE

VOTE TO CONFIRM SUPREME

COURT NOMINEE NEIL

GORSUCH.

WOUNDED WARRIORS, STARTING

IN THE NATION'S CAPITAL,

AND THEN THROUGHOUT THE

> THANKS FOR JOINING US

FOR CBN "NEWSWATCH."

I'M MARK MARTIN.

THE U.S. BLASTED A SYRIAN

AIR BASE WITH CRUISE

MISSILES IN RETALIATION

FOR THIS WEEK'S CHEMICAL

ATTACK AGAINST CIVILIANS.

WE HAVE TWO REPORTS.

CBN'S CHARLENE AARON

REPORTS THE PRESIDENT SAYS

HE WANTS TO SEND A STRONG

MESSAGE TO THE SYRIAN

GOVERNMENT.

THEN CBN'S MIDDLE EAST

BUREAU CHIEF HAS REACTION

FROM ISRAEL.

Charlene: THE U.S.

LAUNCHED 59 TOMAHAWK

CRUISE MISSILES AT SYRIA

FROM TWO WARSHIPS IN

RESPONSE TO A CHEMICAL

WEAPONS ATTACK THAT KILLED

DOZENS OF CIVILIANS.

President Trump:

TONIGHT I ORDERED A

TARGETED MILITARY STRIKE

ON THE AIR FIELD IN SYRIA,

FROM WHERE THE CHEMICAL

ATTACK WAS LAUNCHED.

Charlene: PRESIDENT

TRUMP SAID THERE WAS NO

DOUBT THAT SYRIAN

PRESIDENT BASHAR

al-ASSAD WAS RESPONSIBLE

FOR THE USE OF ILLEGAL

SARIN GAS AGAINST HIS OWN

PEOPLE.

THE PRESIDENT HAD BEEN

CLEARLY AFFECTED BY THE

PICTURES OF SUFFERING

CHILDREN FROM THE DEADLY

CHEMICAL STRIKE.

President Trump: EVEN

BEAUTIFUL BABIES WERE

CRUELLY MURDERED IN THIS

VERY BARBARIC ATTACK.

NO CHILD OF GOD SHOULD

EVER SUFFER SUCH HORROR.

Charlene: OFFICIALS

SAY THE MISSILES WERE

AIMED AT THE AIR BASE THAT

WAS HOME TO THE WAR PLANES

THAT CARRIED OUT THE

CHEMICAL ATTACKS EARLIER

THIS WEEK, KILLING MORE

THAN 70 PEOPLE.

THE STRIKE RECEIVED BOTH

BIPARTISAN SUPPORT AND

CRITICISM ON CAPITOL HILL.

REPUBLICAN SENATORS JOHN

McCAIN AND LINDSEY

GRAHAM APPLAUDED THE

ACTION.

WE SALUTE THE SKILL AND

PROFESSIONALISM OF THE

U.S. ARMED FORCES WHO

CARRIED OUT TONIGHT'S

STRIKES IN SYRIA.

ACTING ON THE ORDERS OF

THEIR COMMANDER IN CHIEF,

THEY HAVE SENT AN

IMPORTANT MESSAGE: THE

UNITED STATES WILL NO

LONGER STAND IDLY BY

ASSADSAD, AIDED AND ABETED

BY PUTIN'S RUSSIA,

SLAUGHTERS INNOCENT

SYRIANS WITH BARREL BOMBS.

RAND PAUL TWEETED: "WHILE

WE ALL CONDEMN THE

ATROCITIES IN SYRIA, THE

UNITED STATES WAS NOT

ATTACKED."

SOME DEMOCRATS APPLAUDED

THE PRESIDENT'S MOVE,

WHILE OTHERS SAID HE NEEDS

TO CONSULT WITH CONGRESS

ON FUTURE MILITARY

ACTIONS.

THE KREMLIN IS CONDEMNING

THE MILITARY STRIKE,

CALLING IT AGGRESSION

AGAINST A SOVEREIGN NATION

IN VIOLATION OF

INTERNATIONAL LAW.

PENTAGON OFFICIALS SAY

RUSSIA WAS INFORMED BEFORE

THE ATTACK.

PRESIDENT TRUMP ALSO

CALLED ON THE WORLD TO

PLAY FOPRAY FOR SYRIA AND TO ASK

GOD FOR WISDOM IN DEALING

WITH A NATION BROKEN BY

CIVIL WAR.

President Trump:

TONIGHT I CALL ON ALL

CIVILIZED NATIONS TO JOIN

US IN SEEKING TO END THE

BLOODSHED IN SYRIA, AND

ALSO TO END TERRORISM OF

ALL KINDS AND ALL TYPES.

Charlene: CHARLENE

AARON, CBN NEWS.

Chris: HERE IN

ISRAEL, PRIME MINISTER

BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

APPLAUDED PRESIDENT

PRESIDENT TRUMP, AND SAID

IN A STATEMENT THAT

PRESIDENT TRUMP SENT A

CLEAR MESSAGE THAT THE USE

AND SPREAD OF CHEMICAL

WEAPONS WILL NOT BE

TOLERATED.

ISRAEL FULLY SUPPORTS

PRESIDENT TRUMP'S

DECISION, AND HOPES THAT

THE MESSAGE IN THE FACE OF

THE ASSAD REGIME'S

HORRIFIC ACTIONS WILL

RESONATE ELSEWHERE.

THERE ARE MANY SMILING

FACES IN THIS COUNTRY

BECAUSE WE THINK AMERICA

IS BACK.

Chris: THE FORMER

ISRAELI AMBASSADOR SAYS

THE STRIKE SENT A STRONG

MESSAGE TO ISRAEL AND THE

U.S. ALLIES IN THE REGION.

I THINK THEY'RE VERY

HAPPY.

BECAUSE EGYPT, SAUDI

ARABIA, JORDAN -- ALL GULF

COUNTRIES -- WERE UNDER

THE ATTACK OF IRAN.

THEY WERE UNDER A THREAT

TO BE ATTACKED, TO BE

TAKEN OVER.

Chris: REX TILLERSON

SAID THE REMOVAL OF ASSAD

IS ON THE TABLE.

ASSAD'S ROLE IN THE

FUTURE IS UNCERTAIN,

CLEARLY, AND WITH THE ACTS

HE HAS TAKEN, IT WOULD

SEEM THERE WOULD BE NO

REALM FOR HIM TO GOVERN

THE SYRIAN PEOPLE.

WILL YOU AND PRESIDENT

TRUMP ORGANIZE A COALITION

TO REMOVE ASSAD.

THOSE STEPS ARE UNDER

WAY.

AT WHATEVER ANGLE YOU

LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED LAST

NIGHT, IT IS VERY, VERY

IMPORTANT, VERY, VERY

SIGNIFICANT TO THE MIDDLE

EAST AND TO RUSSIA AND

CHINA.

BECAUSE IT IS PART OF THE

AMERICAN ARENA.

Chris: PRESIDENT

TRUMP ENDED THIS STATEMENT

WITH A PLEA FOR GOD'S

HELP.

President Trump: WE

ASK FOR GOD'S WISDOM AS WE

FACE THE CHALLENGE OF OUR

VERY TROUBLED WORLD.

WE PRAY FOR THE LIVES OF

THE WOUNDED AND FOR THE

SOULS OF THOSE WHO HAVE

PASSED.

AND WE HOPE THAT AS LONG

AS AMERICA STANDS FOR

JUSTICE, THEN PEACE AND

HARMONY WILL, IN THE END,

PREVAIL.

Chris: CHRIS

MITCHELL, CBN NEWS,

JERUSALEM.

Mark: THE U.S.

MISSILE STRIKES ON SYRIA

ARE OVERSHADOWING THE

SECOND DAY OF TALKS WITH

PRESIDENT TRUMP AND

CHINA'S PRESIDENT.

THE TWO ARE EXPECTED TO

DISCUSS NORTH KOREA'S

NUCLEAR AMBITIONS AND THE

U.S.-CHINA TRADE IMBALANCE

IMBALANCE.

President Trump: IT'S

AN HONOR TO HAVE YOU IN

THE UNITED STATES.

WE HAD A LONG DISCUSSION

ALREADY, AND SO FAR I HAVE

GOTTEN NOTHING --

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING --

[LAUGHTER]

President Trump: --

BUT WE HAVE DEVELOPED A

FRIENDSHIP, AND I THINK

LONG-TERM WE'LL HAVE A

VERY, VERY GREAT

RELATIONSHIP AND I LOOK

VERY MUCH FORWARD TO IT.

Mark: THE WHITE HOUSE

SAYS THIS IS MOSTLY AN

INTRODUCTORY MEETING FOR

BOTH LEADERS.

> THE REPUBLICANS HAVE

OPTED FOR THE NUCLEAR

ACTION TO GET NEIL GORSUCH

NOMINATED.

JENNIFER WISHON EXPLAINS.

Jennifer: BY THE END

OF THE DAY, REPUBLICANS

EXPECT JUDGE NEIL GORSUCH

TO HAVE HIS HAND ON A

BIBLE, TAKING THE OATH OF

OFFICE TO BECOME A SUPREME

COURT JUSTICE.

DESPITE HIS GLOWING

QUALIFICATIONS, GORSUCH

GOT CAUGHT UP IN A

POLITICAL SHOWDOWN, ACH

AGITATED BY DEMOCRATS

STILL SOUR THAT MERRICK

GARLAND NEVER GOT A

HEARING.

THIS IS THE LATEST

ESCALATION IN THE LEFT'S

NEVER-ENDING JUDICIAL WAR,

THE MOST AUDACIOUS YET,

AND IT CANNOT, AND IT WILL

NOT, STAND.

Jennifer: McCONNELL

WARNED DEMOCRATS AGAINST

TRIGGERING THE NUCLEAR

OPTION, WHICH DOWNGRADES

THE VOTES NEEDED FROM 60

TO A SIMPLE MAJORITY OF

51.

DEMOCRATS WARN THAT THE

RULE CHANGE WILL HAVE

LONG-TERM IMPLICATIONS.

IN A POST-NUCLEAR

WORLD, IF THE SENATE AND

THE PRESIDENCY ARE IN THE

HANDS OF THE SAME PARTY,

THERE IS NO INCENTIVE TO

EVEN SPEAK TO THE SENATE

MINORITY.

THAT'S A RECIPE FOR BAD

BLOOD BETWEEN THE PARTIES,

NOT LESS.

Jennifer: OF THE 25

DEMOCRATIC SENATORS UP FOR

REELECTION NEXT YEAR, 10

ARE FROM STATES TRUMP WON,

AND BIG.

MEANWHILE, LIBERALS ARE

APPLAUDING GORSUCH'S

NOMINATION.

FEW OUTSIDE OF

MANHATTAN OR SAN FRANCISCO

BELIEVE THAT RUTH BADER

GINSBURG IS IN THE

MAINSTREAM, BUT NEIL

GORSUCH IS NOT.

Jennifer: IT WAS A

CONTENTIOUS VOTE, ONE

SENATE CHAPLAIN SEEMED TO

ANTICIPATE IN HIS OPENING

PRAYER.

PURIFY THEIR FORCE AS

THEY STRIVE TO DO YOUR

WILL.

Jennifer: IN FLORIDA

TO MEET WITH THE PRESIDENT

OF CHINA, PRESIDENT TRUMP

TOLD REPORTERS THE NUCLEAR

OPTION WILL NOT AFFECT HIS

FUTURE PICKS FOR THE

COURT.

JENNIFER WISHON, CBN NEWS,

WASHINGTON.

Mark: THE CHAIRMAN OF

THE HOUSE INTELLIGENCE

COMMITTEE SAID ON THURSDAY

HE IS TEMPORARILY STEPPING

AWAY FROM LEADING THE

PANEL'S INVESTIGATION INTO

RUSSIA'S INVOLVEMENT IN

LAST YEAR'S PRESIDENTIAL

ELECTION.

REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN

DEVIN NUNES OF CALIFORNIA

SAYS HE MADE THE DECISION

BECAUSE OF ETHICS

QUESTIONS.

DEMOCRATS SAID HE CANNOT

LEAD OBJECTIVELY.

HE SERVED ON PRESIDENT

TRUMP'S TRANSITION TEAM.

AS CONGRESS GETS READY

TO TAKE THEIR EASTER BREAK

FOR TWO WEEKS, THE

UNFINISHED HEALTH CARE

BILL IS STILL LEFT ON THE

TABLE.

HOWEVER, MARK MEADOWS TOLD

DAVID BRODY THAT SOME ARE

EVEN WILLING TO STAY IN

D.C. DURING THEIR BREAK TO

WORK ON IT.

WHEN THE OBAMACARE LAWS

GOT PUT INTO PLACE, THERE

WERE 12 INSURANCE

MANDATES.

WE'RE NOW TRYING TO MAKE

SURE THAT WE REPEAL AT

LEAST FOUR OF THOSE.

FOUR OF 12 IS REALLY WHERE

WE HAVE COME DOWN TO.

THE OTHER FOUR REALLY HAVE

TO DEAL WITH INSURANCE

PREMIUMS COMING DOWN.

Mark: TO LEARN MORE

ABOUT THEIR PLAN, THE FULL

INTERVIEW IS ON "THE BRODY

FILE" AT cbnnews.com.

> HE IS A CONSERVATIVE

CHRISTIAN JUDGE IN A VERY

DEEP BLUE STATE.

WHY HE MAY BE FORCED OFF

THE BENCH.

THAT'S COMING UP.

Efrem: A CONSERVATIVE

Efrem: A CONSERVATIVE

JUDGE HAS FOUND HIMSELF ON

THE WRONG SIDE OF THE LAW

IN A LIBERAL STATE.

ARE POLITICS AT PLAY, OR

SHOULD HE BE REMOVED FROM

THE BENCH?

OREGON CIRCUIT COURT JUDGE

VANCE DAY COULD BE FORCED

OFF THE BENCH.

THE CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN

AND REPUBLICAN SAYS HE IS

THE REE VICTIM OF LIBERAL

POLITICS IN A DEEP BLUE

STATE.

BECAUSE I STOOD QUIETLY

FOR NATURAL MARRIAGE IN A

STATE THAT WAS QUICKLY

TURNING TOWARDS GAY

MARRIAGE, I WAS TARGETED,

I BELIEVE, TO SEND A

MESSAGE TO OTHER JUDGES

WHO HAVE THE SAME

PERSPECTIVE I DO.

AND THAT IS, IF YOU ERR OR

YOU STATE YOUR PERSPECTIVE

IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM

TO THE PUBLIC ABOUT YOUR

BELIEFS, THEN YOU HAVE NO

PLACE ON THE BENCH.

Mark: THE STATE'S

COMMISSION ON JUDICIAL

COMMISSION AND DISABILITY

SAID DAY VIOLATED HIS OATH

OF OFFICE, AND ANONYMOUSLY

RECOMMENDED HIS REMOVAL.

THE COMMISSION ACCUSED HIM

OF TELLING HIS STAFF TO

MAKE SURE NO SAME-SEX

COUPLES WERE BROUGHT

BEFORE HIM FOR MARRIAGE

CEREMONIES, OF CREATING

IMPROPER RELATIONSHIPS

WITH THE DEFENDANTS, OF

ALLOWING A CONVICTED FELON

TO HANDLE A GUN, AMONG

OTHER CHARGES.

Reporter: SO ARE ALL

OF THESE ALLEGATIONS

FALSE?

WE PREEF PROVED THEY WERE

FALSE.

THE ALLEGATIONS THAT THE

COMMISSION THREW AT ME, AS

ONE PERSON HAS SAID, IT

WAS LIKE THROWING THE

KITCHEN SINK AT SOMEBODY.

I BELIEVE THEIR MAIN POINT

WAS: WE DON'T THINK YOU'RE

A PROPER PERSON.

YOU DON'T FIT OUR MODEL AS

A JUDGE.

THEY NEVER QUITE

ARTICULATED WHY.

THEY JUST CAME UP WITH A

VARIETY OF ALLEGATIONS.

Mark: DAY BELIEVES

HIS CASE WAS THE RESULT OF

WHAT HE CALLED A PERFECT

STORM.

IT JUST HAPPENED TO

HAPPEN OR OCCUR AT A TIME

WHERE POLITICS WAS COMING

TO AN APEX, AND ANYBODY

WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT

NATURAL MARRIAGE WHO HELD

AN ELECTED POSITION WOULD

SUFFER, I THINK, SOME

PERSECUTION.

Reporter: YOU BELIEVE

YOU'RE THE VICTIM OF A

POLITICAL VENDETTA BASED

ON YOUR STANCE ON SAME-SEX

MARRIAGE?

MY OPINION, BASED ON

WHAT I'VE SEEN IN THE LAST

TWO YEARS, I THINK

SAME-SEX MARRIAGE AND THAT

ISSUE HAS COMPLICATED WHAT

SHOULD HAVE BEEN A VERY

SIMPLE, STRAIGHTFORWARD

ETHICS CASE.

I DON'T THINK THEY

EXPECTED ME TO FIGHT.

THEY CAME TO ME AND MY

ATTORNEYS AND SAID, IF YOU

JUST RESIGN, THIS WILL ALL

GO AWAY.

I CAN'T RESIGN.

I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING

WRONG.

I SIMPLY, AS A PERSON OF

FAITH, CHOSE TO RECUSE

MYSELF FROM A NON-JUDICIAL

ACT AND STAYED IN CONFORM

TIFCONFORMTIVE WITH MY

PRINCIPLES.

THEY CAN GET MARRIED BY

SOMEBODY ELSE.

Reporter: DAY SAYS

OREGON DOES NOT REQUIRE

ITS JUDGES TO RESIDE OVER

WEAPONS.

OVER

MARRIAGES.

HE ALSO FACES A CRIMINAL

INDICTMENT.

THE CHARGES STEM FROM

DAY'S TIME AS THE JUDGE

PRESIDING OVER THE MARION

COUNTY VETERANS TREATMENT

COURT, AND HIS

INTERACTIONS WITH A NAVY

SEAL.

HE IS ACCUSED OF ALLOWING

THE SEAL TO POSSESS AND

CONTROL GUNS ON TWO

SEPARATE OCCASIONS.

DAY SAYS THE CHARGES ARE

POLITICALLY MOTIVATED.

I TESTIFIED IN THE PAST

ABOUT WHAT DID HAPPEN.

I DID NOT AID AND ABET A

FELON IN THE POSSESSION OF

A FIREARM, EVER, AND I

NEVER WOULD DO THAT AND I

NEVER DID.

Mark: BOB McDONNELL

TOLD CBN NEWS HE BELIEVES

DAY WILL BE FOUND

INNOCENT.

HE IS ALSO NO STRANGER TO

THE COURTS.

HE FACED TWO YEARS IN

PRISON AFTER BEING

CONVICTED OF POLITICAL

CORRUPTION, BUT THE UNITED

STATES SUPREME COURT VOTED

UNANIMOUSLY TO OVERTURN

HIS CONVICTION.

DOES JUDGE DAY'S CASE

REMIND YOU OF WHAT YOU

WENT THROUGH?

ABSOLUTELY.

I BELIEVE FROM THE VERY

BEGINNING OF THIS -- I WAS

SHOCKED TO THE CORE OF MY

BEING WHEN I FOUND OUT I

WAS BEING INVESTIGATED BY

LAW ENFORCEMENT

AUTHORITIES.

I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR

38 YEARS IN PUBLIC

SERVICE, AND ALWAYS TRIED

TO DO WHAT I THOUGHT WAS

RIGHT.

JUDGE DAY AND I HAVE

TALKED OVER THE LAST

THREE, FOUR, FIVE MONTHS,

AS HE HAS WALKED HIS WALK.

I TRIED TO ENCOURAGE HIM.

I SEE HIM KEEPING HIS HEAD

UP, AND I SEE HIM SOLD

OUT, TOTALLY TRUSTING IN

THE LORD FOR VINDICATION.

Mark: DO YOU BELIEVE

YOU'LL BE ACQUITTED?

I WILL BE ACQUITTED.

I DESERVE A JURY TRIAL.

I WANT THAT JURY TRIAL.

BECAUSE I CAN PROVE THINGS

IN THAT JUNIO JURY TRIAL THAT

THE COMMISSION DID NOT

ALLOW US TO PROVE.

Mark: JUDGE DAY HAS A

HEARING ON MOTIONS TO

DISMISS THE CRIMINAL

INDICTMENT LATER THIS

MONTH.

AND IN JUNE, HE MAKES HIS

CASE ON THE ETHICS

VIOLATIONS BEFORE THE

OREGON SUPREME COURT.

> UP NEXT, HOW

TECHNOLOGY IS CHANGING THE

WAY PARENTS LEARN IF THEIR

CHILD HAS DOWN SYNDROME,

AND IN SOME CASES CREATING

A DEBATE OVER ABORTION.

Mark: WELCOME BACK.

Mark: WELCOME BACK.

EXPECTANT MOTHERS AND

FATHERS HAVE A LOT OF JOYS

AND CONCERNS ABOUT THEIR

BABY'S HEALTH, LIKE THE

RISK FOR DOWN SYNDROME.

TECHNOLOGY IS IDENTIFYING

IT EARLIER AND ALLEVIATING

FEARS, BUT AS LORIE

JOHNSON REPORTS, IT HAS

ALSO STIRRED THE DEBATE

OVER CHOOSING ABORTION OR

LIFE.

Lorie: UNTIL NOW,

PREGNANT WOMEN WHO WANTED

TO KNOW IF THEY CARRIED A

BABY WITH DOWN SYNDROME

HAD TO WAIT ABOUT 17 WEEKS

AND RISK A MISCARRIAGE TO

LEARN THE ANSWER.

TODAY THERE IS A FASTER,

SAFER WAY TO FIND OUT.

ALL IT TAKES IS A SIMPLE

BLOOD TEST AS EARLY AS

NINE WEEKS INTO THE

PREGNANCY.

UNFORTUNATELY, THAT LEADS

TO FAR MORE DECISIONS

ABOUT WHETHER TO ABORT.

DOWN SYNDROME IS A GENETIC

CONDITION IN WHICH A

PERSON HAS AN EXTRA

CHROMOSOME, AND AS A

RESULT HAS SOME PHYSICAL

AND MENTAL DISABILITIES.

FOR EVER 10 EXPECTANT

MOTHERS WHO ARE TOLD THEIR

BABY HAS DOWN SYNDROME,

EIGHT CHOOSE TO ABORT THAT

CHILD.

DENISE BASSET WAS ABOUT TO

BE ONE OF THEM.

I HAD TRUSTED IN GOD,

AND I BELIEVE IN GOD, AND

I COUNTED ON HIM FOR

EVERYTHING, BUT I WAS

STARTING TO THINK, WELL,

WHAT IF HE HAD MADE A

MISTAKE.

AND MAYBE I NEEDED TO DO

SOMETHING ABOUT THAT.

Lorie: SHE HAD SIGNED

THE ABORTION PAPERS, AND

THEN AT THE LAST MINUTE,

BASSET CALLED A PREGNANCY

CRISIS HOTLINE AND SPOKE

WITH SHERRY JENSEN.

MEDICINE IS NOT AN

EXACT SCIENCE.

AND NO ONE CAN PREDICT THE

POTENTIAL OF A CHILD.

Lorie: AS IT TURNS

OUT, HER DAUGHTER HAS DOWN

SYNDROME.

AT AGE 33, JENNY HAS

ACCOMPLISHED MUCH MORE

THAN DOCTORS SAID SHE EVER

WOULD.

DO YOU FEEL GOD USING

YOU?

I DO.

I DO FEEL GOD USING ME IN

SO MANY WAYS.

Lorie: JENNY SAYS GOD

USES HER TO SPREAD LOVE TO

MANY PEOPLE.

AS A HOSPITAL VOLUNTEER,

SHE IS A VITAL LINK

BETWEEN THE PATIENT AND

THE HEALTH CARE STAFF.

THE PATIENTS LOVE HER.

SHE IS KIND.

SHE IS CARING.

WE NEVER HAVE TO ASK HER

TO DO SOMETHING TWICE.

SHE NEVER FORGETS A THING.

Lorie: JENNY ALSO

TAKES CARE OF KIDS AT THE

YMCA.

HER BOSS SAYS SHE IS LIKE

A RAY OF SUNSHINE TO THE

CHILDREN, THEIR PARENTS,

AND HER CO-WORKERS.

I KNOW JENNY

PERSONALLY.

A LOT OF TIMES WE SIT IN

MY OFFICE AND TALK ABOUT

FAITH IN CHRIST.

IT COMES RIGHT FROM THAT.

SHE IS JUST A BIG-HEARTED

CHRISTIAN.

SHE LOVES THE LORD.

AND IT IS EVIDENT ON HOW

SHE LIVES HER LIFE.

Lorie: AND IT WAS

JENNY WHO HELPED STOP

DENISE BASSET'S ABORTION.

JENNY'S MOTHER, SHERRY,

CONVINCED DENISE TO

POSTPONE HER DECISION

UNTIL SHE MET JENNY.

WHEN JENNY PRAYED OVER

THE FOOD, I REALIZED THE

LOVE THAT SHE HAS FOR GOD.

AND THEN IN OUR

CONVERSATION, WHEN WE WERE

TALKING, SHE HAD JUST

TOUCHED MY ARM, AND I

REALLY BELIEVE IT WAS GOD

SPEAKING THROUGH HER TO

ME, TELLING ME NOT TO BE

AFRAID AND TRUST IN HIM

AGAIN.

Lorie: AND WITH THAT,

DENISE DECIDED NOT TO

ABORT HER CHILD.

GOD GIVES LIFE.

IT'S NOT YOUR DECISION TO

TAKE IT.

Lorie: MONTHS LATER

DENISE HAD HER BABY, A

LITTLE GIRL NAMED ABBEY,

AND IS SO GLAD SHE DID.

MY DAUGHTER IS

BEAUTIFUL.

SHE IS BORN WITH NO HEART

PROBLEMS, NO KIDNEY

PROBLEMS, NO LEUKEMIA.

SHE IS MORE ADVANCED THAN

WHAT I EVER THOUGHT SHE

WOULD BE.

Lorie: DENISE SAYS

GOD HAS OPENED ALL KINDS

OF DOORS TO PROVIDE FOR

HER AND ABBEY.

AND AS YOU CAN IMAGINE,

TWO OF THEIR DEAREST

FRIENDS ARE JENNY AND

SHERRY, WHO HELPED PAVE

THE WAY.

Mark: WHAT A PRECIOUS

STORY.

> COMING UP, HONORING

THE NATION'S WOUNDED

WARRIORS, FROM THE WHITE

HOUSE TO THE STREETS OF

WASHINGTON.

Mark: PRESIDENT TRUMP

WELCOMED 50 WOUNDED

WARRIORS TO THE WHITE

HOUSE ON THURSDAY, TO

THANK THEM FOR THEIR

SACRIFICE TO THE COUNTRY.

MANY OF THE VETERANS CAME

IN WITH WHEELCHAIRS AND

MISSING LIMBS AS A RESULT

OF INJURIES DURING COMBAT.

BUT DESPITE THEIR

DISABILITIES, PRESIDENT

TRUMP CALLED THEM

AMERICA'S REAL HEROS.

President Trump:

YOU'VE EARNED OUR FREEDOM

WITH YOUR SWEAT AND YOUR

BLOOD AND YOUR INCREDIBLE

SACRIFICE.

WE SALUTE YOU.

WE SALUTE YOUR SERVICE.

AND WE SALUTE THE FLAG YOU

HAVE SO COURAGEOUSLY

PROTECTED.

WE LOVE OUR FLAG.

THANK YOU.

[APPLAUSE]

Mark: WE DO SALUTE

THEIR SERVICE.

THE CEREMONY KICKED OFF

THE ANNUAL "WOUNDED

WARRIOR SOLDIER RIDE."

IT IS A FOUR-DAY BIKE RIDE

TO HONOR AMERICA'S

SOLDIERS.
