Texas’ highest court ruled that the state law never required that the risk to a mother’s life be “imminent” when weighting whether they are eligible for an abortion. Because of this, the court wrote: “Ms. Zurawski’s agonizing wait to be ill ‘enough’ for induction, her development of sepsis, and her permanent physical injury are not the results the law commands,” the Los Angeles Times reported.
Oh, now that’s interesting (in the dumbest way possible). Because the lawmakers who wrote the abortion law were ignorant fucks that wouldn’t know a vagina from their own urethra, the near death experiences these women endured weren’t caused by their attempt to adhere to the law?
That’s just straight up malicious. If following the law puts your life at risk, then wtf is the point of following the law? Why shouldn’t these women get an abortion if the choice is between abortion and jail or a very high likelihood of death?
Wtf does governing mean in Texas?
Wtf does governing mean in Texas?
Subjugation.
Wtf does governing mean in Texas?
“Fuck you, I got mine.”
At minimum this should have triggered a review of the law requiring more clarification as it’s too vague.

Hey, the Death Panels Republicans yelled about back in the Obama years are here!
Aren’t you all excited!?
Please vote this election.
The death panels existed then too, but they were the for profit insurance companies so Republicans were fine with them.
They sure did! This time, it’s just to cause suffering. Isn’t that awesome!?
Vote them out.
Ladies, time to leave Texas
The sad thing about the “just move to a blue state” think is that due to our bicameral legislative structure and the electoral college, that actually puts more people in danger. Texas could go blue in another 10-20 years if Dems hold the Latino vote.
The Latino vote is hard. Lots of Christians and (believe it or not) anti-immigration sentiment. Most are voting against their own interests and for people who least represent their religious beliefs.
