1. Any business that relocates to Texas has told their employees (and their daughters)

that they are quite willing to see them sacrificed and subject to the most abusive attack on their freedom under this Texas version of Sharia law.

2. Did I

miss something?

3. The Texas Taliban bounty hunters

Yeah the supreme court did nothing about the 6 week abortion law and the 10000 bounty on PG women or anyone who helps them obtain an AB. Anyone. A driver an aunt the doctor anyone. You can go anonymously to a Texas right to life website and turn them in for a ten grand bounty

6. I'm beside

myself on this one ☹️ They will have blood on their hands when a young woman gets a “back street “ ab.

This needs to go to the Supreme Court because roe v wade specifically states up to 26 weeks.

I’m going to take a shower. I’m almost sorry I asked.

10. Actually, it just did...

And they chose not to intervene. That was also the intent of the law and the placement of the last three justices. This is a serious blow to Roe v Wade and personal freedom and privacy with this bounty for accusations from anywhere.

This is one of the ways in which the fascists plan to rip the country to shreds. They weaponize everything and have infiltrated our government and are using it against us.

So I wonder if there is a violation of any HIPPA regulations or something here that could be challenged, but I digress.

Roe v Wade itself is on the chopping block next.

4. Absolutely.

They need to make it so only Toby Keith shows up and even he has to think twice.

5. The ass performed at 45s inauguration. He'll prostitute himself anywhere for money.

[Ligyron]

21. Well do I remember.

Upstaged by the Baton majorettes and stupid pet tricks.

I’m not much of a country western music fan but he did a couple funny songs that weren’t that bad.

IDK about money grubbing but I think it more like he felt it his patriotic duty as a Republican shit head to show up and perform.

But with the ridiculous amount of unaccounted for money donated to this cause he may well have picked up a few million for all I know.

Somebody sure did …

8. Let's worry about Texastan

Before Afghanistan

[Comfortably_Numb]

9. My derogatory name for my state is Texjesustan. A right wing theocracy.

Hell!

[2naSalit]

11. Perfect!

I've been trying to come up with one but haven't yet. That one is fitting.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

12. Democrats?

[LymphocyteLover]

13. this law is so cruel and demented, it takes my breath away

GOD DAMN the GOP

[LiberalLoner]

15. +1 and the cruelty is the point for the gop.

[calimary]

20. Yep. Cruelty is the point. Nice "philosophy," 'eh?

[Johnny2X2X]

14. Like most RW laws, this will disproportionally effect the poor

Rich Texans will just go out of state for an abortion, or if they find out they're pregnant in time they'll have the money they need. Poor Texans won't be able to afford to go out of state, and if they find out close to 6 weeks they'll have trouble raising the money to get it done right then.

The SCOTUS needs to stop this now, it's insanity.

[BonnieJW]

16. Wait

Perhaps the SC wants the law to go through the legal system. I'm sure this law will be heavily litigated and struck down as unconstitutional. It will be appealed and travel up to the SC and I'm sure it will be struck down . I know you have your doubts, but this law is so blatant, the SC won't have a choice

[Farmer-Rick]

17. How does this even work??????

Only very, very poor people who talk to fanatical, cruel and vicious friends and family about their plans can't get abortions?

The abortion pill can easily cross borders, it's perfectly legal in other states. As the war on drugs has proven you can't keep pills from crossing borders. How are they going to stop the abortion pill from being passed around? It's a perfectly legal pill.

Are they going to drag women back to Texas like a slaves to pregnancy, like Dred Scott? You have to be an incubator no matter the circumstances because you got born with a vagina? I bet there is already a very busy underground railroad in Texas for woman who need abortions. They are never going to stop abortions...ever. The genie is out of the bottle and they can't chain up women to their religious dogma even with immoral laws.

[LymphocyteLover]

22. It will still be a problem-- a lot of people won't know about this law and ask around about abortion

and maybe they tell someone who then tells a bad person who rats on them. Also a lot of people don't know about the abortion pill. This law is a problem even despite the wide availability of the abortion pill.

18. Call it what it is: White evangelical radicalism. Using "Taliban" and "sharia law" to describe it

is racist and elides the reality that this is homegrown American extremism, codified in law.

[elias7]

19. The new law "deputizes" ordinary citizens to file suit against fellow citizens

Insane!!!

[Dawson Leery]

23. Evangelicalism is the Christian Equivalent of Wahibism.
