“Sexual assault happens, and people become pregnant by it. Those are facts. And in the meantime, victims of sexual assault in the state of Texas lack access to an abortion effectively if they become pregnant,” says Chris Hayes.

This guy has been saying he’s going to eliminate border crossings for YEARS…. How is he going to accomplish this?
Said he was going to fix the electric grid and nada
@FAFO you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about!
We lived in Mexico for years and they’ll blow your brains out if you just look at them crossways!
Go to Mexico. You dont see American trying to move to mexico.
@Rob Crebs I want to see Mexico try to take Texas. It would be a cute attempt for them.
@Rob Crebs this is America not Mexico. If Mexico tried to take Texas they’d be met with such an overwhelming force that they cry. I’d LOVE to see them try.
So what he’s saying is he believes he has the ability to eliminate rapists but has chosen not to till now?
LOL that’s actually a good point. “We haven’t eliminated rapists before…. but we promise to do it now.” Republicans are just flat-out insane Neanderthals.
@FAFO lovee the nod to the ” Freak brothers”
@Fat Freddy’s Cat love the nod to the ” Freak brothers” . Better check your headphones, lol
@Judith Rochin And boots, lol! Keep finding “deposits'” in them! ✌️
@Francesca A Notorious Norbert the Narc is on my tail again! Cheers!
So he’s going to eliminate Trump, Matt Gaetz, and Roy Moore of Alabama?
@Bruh
You are in error on two counts:
I said nothing about “Republicans.” I said “RepubliKKKlans.” I don’t equate the two. I’ve always known there was a difference.
Apparently, you regard them as interchangeable? Not my fault.
FYI: I’m apolitical. Haven’t voted since 1988.
We should remind ourselves that one man’s story may seem true, prima facie, until someone cross-examines him, and sets the record straight.
They say there are two sides to every story. I say: “At least.”
Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, Obongo.
Biden!
@Leonie Romanes Creepy Joe grabbed her kitty and wouldn’t let go.
@SOMETHING BIG IS COMING! if that’s true, why didn’t they interview her on fox, oann, newsmax?
So if you’re lucky enough to confirm your pregnant by six weeks, you’re still fxcked, as the six weeks is over …
@Jimmy MacKinnon dude, you can’t catch pregnancy from a pregnant woman. But you can catch covid from a nuckle dragging, anti science, anti mask neanderthal. Covid is a contagious disease, pregnancy only effects the woman or girl.
@Jimmy MacKinnon So are you saying that pregnancy and COVID are the same?
Rumplicans trying to increase their base by letting incest babies go full term
@David Drake People’s rights are the same. Yes, they should be treated EXACTLY the same under the law.
“nobody is above the law”
@Jimmy MacKinnon Right. Is that why Trump took everything to the courts. Because he is not above the law?
How’s he gonna find all the rapists, do they have a big R on their forehead?
Scotus and congress to start.
@Brian Brooks I see what you did there 😉
It’s not 6 weeks, it’s the first heartbeat, which is usually around 6 weeks. I agree, it sucks, but we have to make sure everyone is on the same page here.
They all wear Red hats.
R for Republicans like Trump, Gaetz, Brett Cavanaugh, etc. etc. etc
He’s the one who needs to be eliminated out of his position of power. Go flip burgers.
Walmart Greeter.
Why would you suggest that burgers and those that eat them be treated so badly?
He cant… he got no leg to stand on. And is not a upstanding kind of guy. You ever see a Texas hot wheels? Give wheely pupper their a cowboy hat. How many horse power is that chair and do he tell it to giddy up ? I’m just going to walk away…… walk.
Would you really trust him with a burger?
No McDonald’s manager would hire him.
You can also eliminate car accidents or why not … HouseFires by being there 30 minutes before thefire
begins !!! Have you ever heard a bigger demagogue????,
The GOP is more Pro Death then pro life, how will he do this Miracle when he can’t even fix their Simple power grid?
@Leonie Romanes my men? What? Ahhh another completely invalid comment
@Madison McBurney The original comment that I replied to makes it seem like only Republican states have power grid issues. You and I know that democrat states have that same issue. That’s my point
@Jimmy MacKinnon I didn’t hear of anybody freezing to death last winter except in Texas no nine-year-olds in any other state froze to death in their bed!
@mary johnson Over a thousand people die from frostbite every year. I understand that Texas has issues but so does every state. I can state how many die from horrible policies in every other state. Pointing one bad policy in one single state means nothing in broad retrospect. You seem to miss the point
@Jimmy MacKinnon Texas has its own grid to avoid higher taxes. Other than Texas. Everyone shares grids, Republican and Democrat states combined.
Eliminating rapists, what a concept. no wonder he’s a GOP presidential contender
Geeze, why didn’t I think of that. I’ll eliminate Drug dealers and armed robbers too!
@Fat Freddy’s Cat Love the screen name. I was an avid reader of underground comics back in the 70’s.
@Tessmage Tessera Wish still had my old ZAP collection! Looks like our minds were corrupted in formative years, lol! Cheers!
He’s a terrible Governor. I hope my fellow Texans will help me get rid of him.
@SOMETHING BIG IS COMING! NO , no we don’t 😠
@Jimmy MacKinnon probably because of better schools, since Texas and southern states are at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to issues like that
@G you can! You’re right about that. Doesn’t mean that it’s run better though. There’s a reason that houses are cheaper..
@Madison McBurney lol. That’s just not true. UT Austin is a great school. along with a bunch of schools in Florida. You seem to really be misunderstanding the education system
@Jimmy MacKinnon the PUBLIC k-12 education system
The Taliban are denying women their rights, just like Republicans.
@Louis Tully except it is true 👍
@Louis Tully ‘Most likely’ now is it? Whatsa matter spud? Your conviction slippin’? Why you’re no patriot at all! *snickers galore*
@olrik parlez Biden is a true dictator
@Louis Tully Potato confirmed. My condolences spuddy.
@Bud Fudlacker Bidens overall approval rating at the end of his term will no doubt still easily eclipse Trump’s shoddy numbers. Pout all yuh like…that won’t change the odds.
The umbilical cord doesn’t belong to you. Stay out of a woman’s body. It’s her choice. It’s between her and God… Not y’all!
@Jimmy MacKinnon, they aren’t forcing anyone, just like no one can force the businesses to allow them into there business. A business sets the rules for using its services, like “no shoes, no shirt, no service”.
@SOMETHING BIG IS COMING!, who “owns” the baby than? I would reason that the woman does since it’s here body carrying it. You don’t own your TV just because it’s in your house/vessel” so I should be able to tell you what to watch on it, sound reasonable?
@Scott Allen lol. That’s not what is currently happening in NYC. Look it up. You seem to be stuck in your own bubble
@Adam Frost lol. You guys started it with the masks and vaccines. Stop whining
@Jimmy MacKinnon, true, I don’t keep up with every state in the nation at all times. But I could easily ask you a question about a subject you didn’t know about, doesn’t mean you’re in a bubble. Good day.
I believe anyone who backs the anti abortion acts, needs to contribute $20,000 per year per baby born to a woman denied an abortion until that child is 18 years old.
Yes.
I believe that anyone who breaks any laws in the Constitution should go to jail. Your comment is full of BS cuz guess what, it’s not written ANYWHERE in the Constitution. Open your eyes
@Jimmy MacKinnon …. Keep your tiny member in your pants! You don’t want a Woman to laugh at you!
@Mary Monroy Did I hurt your feelings? Looks like someone is offended by the facts. It’s called cognitive dissonance. in which reality differs significantly from what you believe it to be. You need to be a well informed citizen, not a puppet
OR … the child can be put up for adoption because right now Theres a several month wait for childless couples
Here’s a thought: This Texas Abortion law is built to send women in this modern era back to the middle ages, back to a time where, especially where cruel, evil and unscrupulous men can practically prey on unsuspecting women to attack and destroy their physical constitutions. 2022 is coming and once again it’s time to turn up, turn out and vote.
Who else likes denying Women their rights? The Taliban.
This is how the Texas GOP got it wrong, they thought they would “pray” on the women of Texas (thank you Lord Jesus), but alas as you stated, it is more treat women as “prey”.
The GOP making sure people are poor, ignorant and angry.
Just Nazi-trump zombies looking for the brains they’ll never find.
That about sums it up actually, and it’s the only way they can stay valid anymore. Conservative views have become the minority so they need to take their rage out on someone and paint them as the devil to make themselves valid again.
You cant take my organs even when I’m dead but you can make my body carry a pregnancy.
Abbott is a disgrace to Texans. Vote him out.
Texans are pro life. Go back to California snowflake
@Florida Man George carlin- Conservative are all about the unborn. But, once your born FU you are on your own. until they reach military age.
@Jesus’ Fish Room being pro life doesn’t mean you’re required to support a full on government welfare state. Such a bad argument 🤣🤣
@Fat Freddy’s Cat 🗣Texas Taliban MAGAats ReTHUGlicans
I wonder if he knows he can also stop plane crashes by simply grounding all flights 🤔
Texas: where Covid has more reproductive rights than women.
Good one!😉
True.
Well said!
The governor’s position is obscene as rapists can only be arrested (after) the crime. The governor is sick to play games with women’s lives.
