Aww. Look at StateOfTexas.. our own little slice of Nazi Germany.

Why would a private citizen have standing to sue? What is their injury? Of course, the state can pursue charges injurious to persons or the public welfare. Don’t see how this is constitutional

It sounds like the Taliban is already suppressing women’s rights and freedoms, now the Taliban is in the Texas legislator influencing and enacting laws to keep women second class citizens, punishing anyone who tries to help them.

NPR Cookie Consent and ChoicesReally. This is the socialist Utopia? No labor unions allowed in China. No wonder the Republican business men gave our industry to Communist China.

NPR Cookie Consent and ChoicesThe US is becoming crazier by the day. Dangerous times ahead. Domestic terrorism is being allowed to run rampant in these communities by the right wing politicians who see this as a way of gaining and maintaining power. And these are examples of messy democracy getting messed up by bullies and thugs. Center right and center left will prevail. In the meantime, frustration and angst will be the norm.
