      Oh that? That was a data collection error. We’ve changed our methodology, now there’s no change. Go about your business, nothing to see here.

    I will say not allowing the procedure even in the case when it has failed or wasn’t viable to begin with makes no sense.

    God I hate this timeline…

    Not knocking her at all, and I understand the position of the doctors, but I wish she could have scheduled the procedure for right after the Thursday ruling or Friday morning so her lawyer could have responded “my client would like to inform you that ‘this case is moot and you can suck my cox.’”

      She and her lawyers justifiably want to force the issue. Doing a quick “too late” maneuver would keep her safe, but not force the texas supreme court to make a very unpopular ruling during an election year that a bunch of shit head texas GOP members will crow about.

      When the worst case happens and the partisan judges make a partisan judgement shortly, she can go to Nevada or California or any other sane state and receive actual healtchare.

      This is some Rosa Parks shit. “Jane Texan” being forced by the men of the GOP to carry a dead baby to term at the risk of her fertility and life, in wide public view. It might change some hearts and minds, and maybe Texas’s non voting majority will come out for once.

    People I’d like to see lose elections are doing things that are deeply unpopular with everyone. It’s definitely not good at all, but maybe it will lead to good as people realize they are about to reap what they sowed.

      if only that’s all it took. unfortunately, the gerrymandering is… profoundly extensive.

    Reminder to all that Texas sucks. Republicans suck too. They’re hindering humanity from moving forward.
