The statistics show worse outcomes for black women in abortion restricted states. There are so many deaths from the hands of Republicans. It is insane that they are supported by so many people in this country.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Matthew 7:7-8
7 - Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8 - For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
And of course they were both POC. I fucking hate this state, and I don't even live in it.
I was made to either move to Texas or lose my career.
I chose to lose my career.
Republicans are monsters. Fucking evil pieces of shit. That's the type that has swept the party since 2015. The moderates are gone. Only the most heinous pieces of shit fill their ranks in government today.
Is even this politicized?
The answer is yes. They are treating ours and our children's lives as nothing more than pawns.
And of course, when the Republicans do heinous shit, they also make sure to shut down or suppress the institutions that are responsible for keeping track of and reporting this information. All so they can have a few more of those green papers and have enough plausible deniability to not disgust their base into turning against them.
Fuck these people. And fuck the doctors too that follow these bullshit laws they know are morally wrong. Just fucking sitting on their hands and letting people fucking die for no good reason. I hope they never get good sleep for the rest of their lives, knowing they could and should have done more.
The victims are the disenfranchised minorities. The doctors (sometimes) are intimidated into compliance because they don't want to be held liable.
Texas has some of the most lax gun laws... just saying
They don't want to lose their medical licences more like, because then they help noone
Direct link without Apple redirect
Thanks. Is there a common way to de-apple such a link or did you have to search for the original article?
It's automatic in this case.
There are browser addons to skip redirects, but I don't know how well they work.
For sharing from Apple News, instead of using the share button (if that's what you did) I guess you could open the link in a browser first, let it redirect and then copy the original URL.
This is what you voted for protest-non-voters.
Well good riddance, those baby murdering criminals!
/S
Texas, the bastion of democracy. Right alongside Alberta, and the rest of the South.
2A for all... Texas loves their guns
Texas Living. 🤷♂️ oh well.
Not "Oh, well"
Which state is next? Yours?
Unlikely. Mine will be one of the last to fall. Texas asked for this. And keeps asking.
At first, they came for Texas...
No, this is not that. This is Texas fucking Texans over like Texas always fucks Texans over. Texas has always been shit, we just forgot it because there was a bit of time where we were distracted by other shit.
Ah... No money for anything but oil subsidies. Must be nice not having any social problems in your state.
Edit: their state.
