Summary

Four women are suing Idaho over its strict abortion laws, seeking clarification on exceptions that would allow abortions for serious pregnancy complications before the mother’s life is in immediate danger.

Represented by the Center for Reproductive Rights, the plaintiffs described having to leave Idaho to terminate pregnancies after receiving fatal fetal diagnoses and facing health risks.

The state argued the ban protects “unborn children” and asserted current exceptions suffice.

Doctors testified Idaho’s law creates confusion and delays, potentially worsening health outcomes for pregnant patients needing urgent care.

kangaroo courts are obviously not going to help

it is on the trained professionals to take over and just do their fucking job at this point

And then after they do their job be arrested and hauled in front of that kangaroo court on a murder charge. Of course, they've been fired at this point because the hospital's lawyer told them not to do the procedure because they would lose their malpractice insurance if they did.

when a country gets to the point the US is now the only people left defending democracy are people like these doctors who on the front line

time to nut up or shut up

this is where democracy's final gasps happen before the death knell not at the poles or kangaroo courts or on some pulpit

when the only thing standing between freedom are a person's ability to act or not the choice should be clear

fuck the jackboots and do the job that took oath for or relinquish your position to shine boots so someone who does have the courage to hold the line can

It’s real easy to tell other people to flush their livelihoods down the drain and also go to prison so that they can never help anyone ever again.

if enough people such as doctors go against a regime it falls but if enough people get scared enough the regime stands tall

Again, easy to tell others to do it.
