They don’t give a damn about the “life of the mother”

Well..we know that the repubs lie about everything so I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that the “life of the mother” exception that many of the red states have written into their draconian anti abortion laws just don’t work when women have to sue for that right and it has to go through the deep red court systems…just in the past week a case in Texas shows that the repubs had no intent of allowing any abortion even if the mother’s life is at risk and the fetus has a genetic disease that is fatal every time…a woman there had doctors refuse to perform the needed procedure since they can be arrested for doing it even though she may die or lose her fertility if the abortion wasn’t done…so she sued and a lower court agreed she qualified for the exception…but then the asshole AG stepped in to object and appealed to the Texas SC and the SC said she couldn’t use the exception so she had to leave the state to save her life…now, there is no damn way that any woman should have to sue to control her healthcare…but that is what is happening in every damn red state…and the repubs just don’t care since the cruelty is the point of these laws….geez…
