I get smacked upside the head by a clue-by-4. Godammit, those fu**ing politicians, lawyers and christofascists DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT to sentence women and girls to DEATH!

on to your trophy wife without having to pay alimony. I mean ectopic pregnancy? So many other conditions? This is just sick. I wonder if they will go after no fault divorce too since women seem to like being single instead of being with men who want a traditional patriarchial marriage. I mean if the leading cause of death was pregnancy for women 100 years ago, a second marriage without the baggage of a divorce may look like a good thing. What else are we to think?

Another case of Abbott and DeInsantis trying to out-cruel the other. So many of these stupid populist laws are bound to be illegal and surely cross boundaries of any doctor's Hippocratic Oath.

I hope the women and all professional medical associations in Texas rise up in revolt and vote every one of these Rethug assholes out of office.

Republicans will take your rights
and kill democracy.

These radical Republican terrorists want to use the power of government to kill women and girls.
