Kat Cammack recounts emergency room ordeal but claims ‘fearmongering’ by Democrats and pro-choice activists sowing confusion among medical professionals
Florida Republican Rep. Kat Cammack has revealed that she almost died last year as a result of her state’s six-week abortion ban, which left hospital staff reluctant to treat her ectopic pregnancy for fear of criminal prosecution.
Cammack was only five weeks pregnant at the time, the embryo had no heartbeat and her own safety was in jeopardy, but nevertheless the congresswoman found herself forced to pull up the letter of the law on her phone to argue the case and even put in a call to Governor Ron DeSantis, without being able to reach him, before staff relented and came to her aid.
But surprisingly, given her ordeal, the representative does not feel the law itself is at fault and instead blames Democrats for scaring medical professionals into confusion over their responsibilities.
Definitely not a cult.
Are we sure it was an ectopic pregnancy, and not gallstones caused by her diet?
“There will be some comments like, ‘Well, thank God we have abortion services,’ even though what I went through wasn’t an abortion,” she said.
Dunno what the fuck else you wanna call it, but hey, gotta do those mental gymnastics.
“I became unpregnant to save my life!”
What a cunt, shame she pulled through.
If a loving god ever existed, he would not allow vile creatures such as this to be in any position of power. Yet, every position of power is filled with exactly this kind of human excrement. Only one thing will get rid of them.
I can imagine a loving God allowing these vile creatures to exist, but I can’t believe he would allow them to speak for him.
anyone who considers “democrats” “the left” needs to be fired and not allowed to run and be in office ever again.
Anyone not in the cult is “the left” or some other label that no longer means anything. It’s intentional to keep shifting public perception of anything that isn’t fascist is actually unamerican. No one wants to be an outsider, Tommy. You will enjoy your Medicaid cuts because if you don’t you’re a communist socialist woke CRT DEI politically correct etc
As a foreigner, it’s lowkey fucking hilarious to see Americans call everything left-of-center “Leftist/socialist/radical”, when even the Democrat party would typically be classed as slightly right of center in many democratic nations. Their attacks on countries like Sweden, Germany, Canada, etc. for enacting basic social programs to stem the damage from addictions and homelessness for example are pretty telling, as though it would be beneficial to society overall to leave people to their fates with no assistance, as though they were fish that jumped out of water onto the beach - as though they should just be left out in the sun to die, and rot in the open air while everyone passes by unconcerned.
It seems like most Americans barely leave their own state, let alone a country that isn’t Mexico or Canada. Having spent a fair time in most European countries, political discussions with locals typically involve how skewed the US perspective is on liberal/conservative views. Like calling Biden or Harris radical leftists. JFC. It’s embarrassing that people actually believe that. The brainwashing here is crazy.
Most americans barely have 5$ in their bank account at the end of the month, Of course they dont leave their own state, most cant even leave their home.
I think part of the problem is the lack of money. Specifically, if you don’t have enough money, exploring the world and seeing different ways of life isn’t an option.
Poverty is corrosive to personhood and society, since it inherently kills possibilities - education, meeting people, contributing to community, and more.
That is very true. My comment certainly wasn’t a knock against anyone who can’t travel. The value proposition for travel to that extent is a hard sell to someone living paycheck to paycheck. The first time my wife and I went to Europe was largely on credit cards (we were young and paycheck to paycheck as well). We had to give up many comforts over the following years to pay it off.
The relative geographic isolation here is a major hurdle, and while the internet should be a great tool to discover what potential we have (like not going bankrupt after falling ill), it’s just as useful for big money to control the narrative.
These maga cultists think DICK CHENEY of all people is a commie librul. Forget left of center.
love that pic. gonna steal it because I’m a lefty commie anarchist.
Feel free to yoink, that’s how I got it.
It serves it’s purpose: Propaganda
I suspect the story would be quite different if she weren’t a white woman working for the state.
The Democrats are just FEARMONGERS! ANYONE can call up Ron DeathSentence to Show the Staff they WONT go to Jail if they MURDER THIS BABY for Me!
Ah, another case of mental illness.
we wrote these laws to be vague so that white people like me could get treatment!
And this is precisely why the right can get away with doing whatever they want. Their cult will NEVER blame them for anything.
I loved that show.
One thing you can always rely on conservatives for is that they’re vile, hypocritical pieces of shit
She’s a little fat to be having a child anyway, obesity causes a lot of pregnancy complications.
uhm
They aren’t actually wrong.
yeah but it’s way besides the point, no?
She immediately went and got knocked up again. Florida should ban breeding by stupid people next.
Well that doesn’t make any sense! Why would she do that if all abortions are caused by women getting knocked up and then randomly deciding they don’t actually want their baby, like the anti-choice narrative claims?
It’s almost as if abortions are actually done for good reasons and the anti-choice people are hateful fucking liars. Weird.
Slow your roll, she may be a hypocritical piece of shit, but there’s no sense in jumping out of the frying pan and into eugenics.
Maybe we make an ethical compromise and say stupid people shouldn’t be allowed to raise children.
Imo stupid is not really passed through genetics, it’s more an issue of exposure.
I could get on board with this.
This is a public safety proposal, not eugenics.
No, that’s literally eugenics.
/s
it’s very simple: if someone registers as a republican they immediately get sterilized. it’s their choice and it’s for the good of the public
