Doctor performs an abortion and Paxton presses charges on the doctor and it's back in court.
It's still pretty easy to go after the GOP on this. Without them. This doctor doesn't fear being thrown in jail and doesn't have to worry about spending time in court instead of caring for patients.
On Monday, the Texas Supreme Court ruled she could not have the abortion. Which knowing the make up of that court was not a real surprise. The plaintiff, however, by the time the ruling came down had already left the state to obtain the medical she needed. It remains to be seen if this case is further appealed in order to continue the challenge to the vagueness of the law or if Paxton will go after any of her family, friends, or medical team who may have known about her plans to leave the state. Helping someone is also illegal in Texas.
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
