A very ‘pro-life move’ by Mattel. You love to see it.

 

 

If woke Barbie and woke Mattel are recognizing that the lives of those with Down syndrome matter?

 

That’s a huge win.

Good to see.  But the doll doesn't look at all like a girl with DS.

On Wednesday, the Senate committee held just such a hearing, inviting a Texas woman who nearly died because of her state’s abortion ban; an esteemed law professor; a practicing OB/GYN; a doctor from an antiabortion group; and a senior research associate from Notre Dame — a Catholic university.

The most compelling and heartbreaking testimony came from Amanda Zurawski, who lives in Texas. During her prepared remarks, she explained that after sending out invitations to her baby shower she began experiencing symptoms, her membranes ruptured, and she was “told by multiple doctors that the loss of our daughter was inevitable.” However, her doctors “didn’t feel safe enough to intervene as long as her heart was beating or until I was sick enough for the ethics board at the hospital to consider my life at risk and permit the standard health care I needed at that point — an abortion.”

Zurawski couldn’t very well drive to a “safe” state. (“Developing sepsis — which can kill quickly — in a car in the middle of the West Texas desert, or 30,000 feet above the ground, is a death sentence, and it’s not a choice we should have had to even consider.”) Instead, she had to wait — for either the fetus’s heart to stop or to get really sick. She nearly died from sepsis, which is why the standard of care in such circumstances is to perform an abortion before the woman gets very sick and risks death.

What happened was nothing short of horrifying:

In a matter of minutes, I went from being physically healthy to developing a raging fever and dangerously low blood pressure. My husband rushed me to the hospital where we soon learned I had developed sepsis — a condition in which bacteria in the blood develops into infection, with the ability to kill in under an hour. Several hours later, after stabilizing just enough to deliver our stillborn daughter, my vitals crashed again. In the middle of the night, I was rapidly transferred to the ICU, where I would stay for three days as medical professionals battled to save my life. I spent another three days in a less critical unit of the hospital — all because I was denied access to reasonable health care due to Texas’s new abortion bans.

If she had been alone or had lacked good medical care to rescue her, she would have died.

Logic is hard.

 

You can SEE the actual moment pro-abortion activist realizes he’s wrong during Tim Pool interview (watch)

 

It’s not every day we see a staunch pro-abortion activist realize how wrong he or she really is, so when this video of Tim Pool interviewing this guy who was absolutely convinced he was right about abortion realizing he’s wrong?

Trump has previously publicly committed to a national abortion ban. So apparently it’s now not about State rights. He would sign a nationwide ban bill in an instant.

 

 

Of course there won't be one for him to sign,

 

But might as well get riled up anyway.
