Kate Cox, the brave woman who sued Texas so she could protect her fertility by ending her dangerous and unviable pregnancy, defied tyranny and
escaped the state just before the extremist all-Republican Texas Supreme Court overturned her right to do so.
Make no mistake: this is a travesty – for Cox personally, and for women in Texas in general. No woman should be forced to flee her own home in order to obtain healthcare.
Kate Cox has further exposed the horrors of Texas’ abhorrent abortion restrictions for all
young voters across Texas to see, and
Republicans in Texas are waking up just as two of these fanatical judges come up for re-election.
Blue states are also fighting back, and
winning.
Who is waking up?
Not only are the youth revitalized, but even conservatives are starting to crack.
Youth activist Olivia Juliana, 21, who is from Texas, said it best:
Strikingly, even Ann Coulter, former right-wing influencer, is now disgusted:
Bigger Picture – Beyond Privilege
How many women don't have the means to sue for her rights or, if those rights continue to be denied to her, to leave the state?
How many women are forced to move forward with unviable pregnancies that endanger their reproductive health or their lives?
How many babies are born who end up living short, agonizing lives because a bunch of unqualified religious fanatics have the power to enforce their beliefs on the rest of us?
This is why amplifying this barbarous decision from the Texas Supreme Court is so important.
Here’s our path to do exactly that.
Why Texas Republicans are So Vulnerable
Polls show that Texans are against the near-total abortion ban implemented by their Christo-Fascist criminal leaders.
That term is not hyperbole—it’s an accurate description of their world-view:
Texas Supreme Court Justice John Devine has
bragged that he was arrested for harassing women entering and leaving abortion clinics – not once, not twice…THIRTY-SEVEN times.
But his extremism gets even worse—and more personal.
Devine and his wife continued the high-risk pregnancy of their seventh child
even though the pregnancy was likely to cause the death of either the mother or the child, or both. His wife survived, but the child died an hour after birth.
Now, Devine and his fellow cultists are forcing all women in Texas to conform to their cruel and fanatical views. What’s happening is Texas is a blueprint for every other red state.
As the
Texas Tribune states, however, “Despite the state’s near-total ban on abortion,
just 12% of Texans think abortion should be illegal in all cases.”
Citizens are waking up.
Day of Reckoning for Republican Politicians
Again, ALL of the justices on the Texas Supreme Court are Republicans. In 2024, two will be up for reelection: the aforementioned John P. Devine, confessed criminal, and Jimmy Blacklock.
If Ohio taught us anything, both are in deep trouble. 
In November, at a time when Democrats allegedly had their backs to the wall, Republicans were CRUSHED across the country. This was in large part because of their Medieval approach to women’s reproductive rights in particular, and the rights of women in general.
Young people came out in droves to pass Issue 1 in Ohio, protecting abortion rights in a Republican-dominated state.
There’s hope for Texas, too.
Polls say
a whopping 78% of Texans think abortion in some form should remain legal.
With the help of people like Olivia Juliana, you, and I, we can help Texas voters follow Ohio’s lead – kick out these judges, and every other Republican politician.
What’s Next:
Cox will receive the abortion she needs in a safe, caring environment – a liberal state –and she’s not alone.
Women and sane people in red states are starting to understand the divided that exists between red and blue states when it comes to women’s reproductive health care—and they don’t like what they see.
While red state Republicans are trying to criminalize women who travel out of state to seek health care that’s being denied to them at home, several Democratic states have issued executive orders or similar directives aimed at protecting women seeking abortions from out of state. Women can’t and won’t be extradited for having an abortion.
Through her courage, Kate Cox is energizing the 78%, including young voters, who have the power to take back their democracy from these monsters.
We need to wake up voters in Texas, in all red states, in every district in every state of this country, and get them on board with forcing these maniacs out of power.
We need to save women from a future that's dictated by these anti-life Christian fascists.
She has the GOP running scared
