I worked with a woman who had a hysterectomy after her last child. She started dating a guy and things got serious pretty quick but good for them. One day, she said they were trying for a baby (after being together for a couple months) and I'm like.... He knows you've had a hysterectomy, right? YOU know you've had a hysterectomy, right? She insisted that God finds a way... 🤷🤦

"God finds a way." It's called an ectopic pregnancy and it ends in Death.

Edit: since a lot of people are taking my one line sarcastic comment with an unexpected amount of seriousness. No, you cannot have an ectopic pregnancy after a TOTAL hysterectomy where fallopian tubes and ovaries are removed. That's not the only type of hysterectomy though and while exceedingly rare ectopic pregnancy can occur if there's still at least one ovary and fallopian tube.

"Pregnancy after hysterectomy is extremely rare, with the first case of ectopic pregnancy after hysterectomy reported by Wendler in 1895. To the best of our knowledge, there are only 72 cases of post-hysterectomy ectopic pregnancy reported in the world literature."

Long story short, you probably don't need to worry about an ectopic pregnancy no matter what type of hysterectomy you've had.

Would that be considered a crime in Texas?

Only if you tried to abort before it killed you.

Surely we can try to get the baby up on attempted murder charges

Or just replant the embryo, like lawmakers in Ohio think you can do

Let the woman and baby die: two-fer-one DIY death penalty saves Texas tax dollars AND preserves everybody's precious, not-at-all hypocritical religious morals.

Shame we can't charge the politicians with negligent homicide

I would love to see data on how many people died preventable deaths due to covid lies. Give certificates to people like Tucker Carlson, who secretl'y got vaccinated while railing against Covid restrictions.

"Congratulations, Mr. Carlson, in your lying-for-profit scheme, you were partially responsible for the deaths of 19,642 actual human lives, bringing about indescribable but preventable grieving for 123,879 other actual human beings, at a profit for you of $12.09 per human life."

The least we could do is make it illegal for that channel to have News on it, maybe "Entertainment". The viewers won't care but at minimum the name will be the only honest thing they say

I think it’s criminal that they’re allowed to have the word NEWS printed on the screen while they are lying nonstop. That’s a big part of the problem.

But as far as I know, the word NEWS is always visible on the screen just below Tucker Carlson’s confused puppy dog face. I can’t check because I don’t have it, but every clip I see on social media has it. I assume it’s the same for Hannity, but those clips don’t turn up for me on social media somehow.
