The 25-year-old college senior was told she likely had an ectopic pregnancy, a highly dangerous condition where the embryo implants outside of the uterus. Without immediate treatment, the fallopian tube can rupture — and the patient can die.

The law that has prohibited abortions in Texas since Roe v. Wade was overturned now explicitly allows doctors to treat ectopic pregnancies. But when doctors at Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital evaluated Norris-De La Cruz last week, they refused to terminate the pregnancy, saying there was some chance the pregnancy was still viable, Norris-De La Cruz recalled. Instead, they advised her and her mother to go home and wait, according to medical records.

    Yes, and capitulating and rolling over when they win is exactly how you DON’T “get those idiots out of office.”

    Just like the Democrats are fucking STUPID for their border gamble. Because now everyone is talking as if the Republican gaslighting about a border crisis is REAL. Now, Democrats STILL don’t have aid to Ukraine, but now everyone thinks the Republicans are on to something instead of lying grifters…

    This kind of shit is the slippery slope to hell. You DO NOT win against a cheater by listening to their twisted, broken “rules”.

    Good job allowing terrible people to import hell on earth.

      Democrats are going to get a fascist elected because Ukraine seems to be the only thing they care about.
