Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

What an unbelievable piece of shit. This dude is actually a demon and seriously hateful person. He shouldn't be screaming around at doctors and women for protecting their lives, he should be screaming into pads at a psych hospital.
He’s a con man and a grifter coddling his base in hopes of more “donations”.
Why not both?
Every time I see a shooting star, I wish for him and Abbott to get aneurysms.
Exactly. A typical conservative.
He should be screaming at the walls of a prison cell, because he's a criminal on top of everything else you said.
It's terrible, and he's a terrible person. But, I had concerns that this case getting decided too fast would hurt the other case trying to overturn TX's ban. One of the arguments in the state-wide ban case was that women could go to the court and get permission for abortion as needed. That's a horrible solution that doesn't scale, but if this case was too quick to resolve, the court could use it for cover and not have to rule on the overall ban in TX.
Paxton acting like such an entitled prick about this ruling might actually help both cases survive. This case will get a stronger opinion by the judge, and the other case won't be able to just point to this case as a "see you don't need us" scapegoat way out of actually ruling on the larger ban question state-wide.
Shit with legs.
And unfortunately the Texas Supreme Court agrees with him...
