Ken Paxton issues threat after judge ruled this week that Cox, a pregnant woman with a lethal fetal diagnosis, can get an abortion
The Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton, has threatened to prosecute any doctor who provides an abortion to Kate Cox, a woman with a non-viable pregnancy, advising hospitals to ignore a court order issued on Thursday allowing her to get the procedure.
The rightwing Paxton issued the warning to three Houston-area hospitals after a Texas judge ruled this week that Cox, a pregnant woman with a lethal fetal diagnosis, may obtain an abortion under the narrow medical exceptions offered by the state bans.
In a brazen dismissal of the court’s decision, Paxton wrote that the judge’s order “will not insulate hospitals, doctors or anyone else from civil and criminal liability”.
Paxton also wrote that the hospital where Cox obtains an abortion “may be liable for negligent credentialing the physician” who performs the procedure.
What. The. Fuck.
Christofascist isn’t just a neat pun. Guys like him masturbate to The Handmaid’s Tale.
and a loooot of conservatives feel similarly. Bunch of weak men mistaking their agression for confidance and not the fear-driven response that it is.
Bold of you to assume he can read.
Doubt that assumption was made. He would be getting off on the TV series.
I’m sure you will be glad to know that I did realize this as well. I just thought it was a funny comment.
:-)
Good point.
Wait it’s a pun? I thought it was just an agglutination
More like a portmanteau, I think.
A fucking what?
Isn’t that when you can’t eat bread?
It was never about life. It’s about power and control.
