That type of doctor is highly highly specialized among medicine. I’m sure other places would love to have him and his experience. Unfortunately the kids there in Texas suffer as political ideology prevail there. We die as ignorance rules
Didn’t they already find out when they ran out of obstetricians?
Is the right to state facts not a thing anymore? I thought speech was in the Constitution or something.
Doesn't mean people can't react to what you say... In this case, in a politically-motivated nonsensical way.
They can do whatever, but without money
Get used to hearing the "pull funding" threat, it's how they're going to start chipping away at minority rights (LGBTQ+, women, Latino, Black, etc).
Have your three branches of government pass an act tying a state-decision to federal funding ala the National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984, and we're going to see state's comply.
You’re very right but there are a few blue states like California that could be tell the feds to fuck right off. Granted that’s the start of a civil war but we’re kinda already on that path one way or another
Take money away from a children's hospital? I don't know if that would go over well
They wouldn't be sick in the first place if they were good Christians
They hate immigrants more than they like children.
To be entirely fair that's a ridiculously low bar to clear considering they hate children.
Exhibit A for asshole
I really don't want to be a judgemental prick but even if you didn't know the context of this photo... Look at those absolute ghoulish looking humans. Holy shit.
Yea, those kids are terrifying.
All they have to say is something like the doctors are forcing the kids to become transgender and the Trump fans will all scream about how it must be shut down.
Don't forget how the medical staff molests kids under anesthesia. The MAGATs love their paedo hunts.
Sounds like the sort of thing the Trumpets would love.
They hate kids once they are born.
They hate them before they're born too. Have you ever heard about them calling for any sort of free prenatal care? Let alone free or even affordable healthcare for pregnant women? If your fetus dies but it could have been saved if you had the money, fuck you, lady. God's will.
Abbot is a limp chode
he should fuck off to someplace that doesn't have internet so we can forget about him.
Consequences: doctors leave Texas
Consequences: doctors leave Texas
Consequences: TikTokers ~~doctors~~ leave Texas
Anyone rational is looking at alternatives to Texas.
Anyone with any amount of desirable skills and foresight is looking at alternatives to the US.
