The seven-months-pregnant officer reported contraction-like pains at work, but said she wasn’t allowed to leave for hours. The anti-abortion state is fighting her lawsuit, in part by saying her fetus didn’t clearly have rights.

    Holy shit, I can’t imagine a scenario where the state and prison could have acted any worse. That article goes from bad to worse to nuclear annihilation 😐

      i didnt bother to read it because texas does whatever it wants and only the federal gov’t can give this woman a reprieve of any kind; but so long as that ass hat biden is in charge; nothing will happen.

        That’s a state prison. State’s rights yeah? Not Biden’s responsibility, not Biden’s problem. Look at the Texas governor if you want to be mad at someone

              Biden is a long term establishment politician w a recorded history of racist, homophobic, and classist behavior that he’s on record of still being proud about despite it no longer being politically popular. He’s a Democrat, so liberals will refuse to believe the reality of his political beliefs and he also he won’t shake the boat and force the rich to take action.

              Trump is a clueless dumbass whose foolish actions as president forced the rich to react and that’s the sole reason I’ve been employed since 2017.

              Both suck but only one doesn’t try hard to falsify his racist, homophobic, and classist beliefs and also only one will openly shake the trees of his enemies to see what falls out and Biden is neither; which is why trump is very slightly better.

                thanks for answering. i actually agree that Trump is a change agent. I was hoping more for improvement.

        Maybe you should read the article to find out why your content makes zero sense whatsoever. Assuming you know that the president personally fucked this woman over is crazy.
