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.
Thanks, Obama
Why did Ronald Regean do this?
That’s why they can only win. It’s s closed system and the media refuses to call bullshit.
Worse: The media is highly complicit, they push any agenda that powerhungry sociopaths pay them to vomit into the masses. Without a deinstitutionalized media landscape, the world will never know peace.
Absolutely complicit.
We have a president who can barely form a sentence and the news barely comments on his mental decline and batshit choices. But bring up Biden and the jokes about his stability start flying.
Ah, another case of mental illness.

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!
“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.

Authoritarians compartmentalize everything. The conclusions are indisputable and so no two justifications must ever be mentally compared to one another. They don’t even realize they’re doing it, and will assume it is being done to them.
Which is why my elementary and middle school teachers hated me. Take a fiercely logical kid who has no qualms about pointing out contradictions, put them up against an authoritarian (who, let’s be honest, probably works with kids because they’re guaranteed to have power over them), and you’re gonna end up with an angry adult and a kid who’s regularly put in detention.
I have zero regrets. Authoritarians can get fucked. The only good thing I can surely say they’d ever done, was that they managed to radicalize me before puberty.
I don’t know your teachers or situation and I am going to wildly generalise here, but having worked with teachers, they were probably just their best.
They are teaching a syllabus they didn’t write (you can only put so much make up on that pig) to a group of largely disengaged students, for generally insufficient pay.
They probably just wanted to make it through the day without contemplating self harm.
A spirited contrarian student who fancies themselves an intellectual can be dealt with the ideal way, engaging them, acknowledging the short comings of teaching content to a wide range of intellects/engagement levels.
Or the less ideal way, draconian authority. Sounds like you ran up against the former. Sorry that was your experience.
I wish I could agree, but my schools had two types of teachers: newbies who were desperate to prove themselves, and tenured teachers who gave no fucks. Even the “cool” science teacher couldn’t admit the truth when I came in with three different sources proving he had been spreading a myth to my class. There’s no excuse for teachers who can’t admit they were wrong - they have one job, to educate. Spreading false information is the opposite of what they should be doing, and I cannot forgive that.
“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.
Are we sure it was an ectopic pregnancy, and not gallstones caused by her diet?

Well, of course this law change doesn’t faze a Republican, because they feel like they are able to do whatever the hell they want regardless of what the law says.
Unfortunately, the people who operate in the real world have to actually consider the consequences of their actions and whether they might be breaking the law. So the fact that the laws concerning the doctors’ field of endeavour have been fucked around with makes them understandably confused. Not their fault they’re confused. In fact, being concerned about the legality is definitely an indication of professionalism.

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.
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
This is a public safety proposal, not eugenics.
No, that’s literally eugenics.

I suspect the story would be quite different if she weren’t a white woman working for the state.
What story?
RTFA
You misunderstood. I meant if it were not a white person, there wouldn’t be a story.
Her sob story.
Definitely not a cult.
Donald is right. Americans are fat and disgusting.
There is also a fat joke I can say but I’m to classy of a lefty to say it. Dumb fat bitch.
I’m not as classy of a lefty, just whisper it in my ear.
This bitch is so fat that when she farts the national weather service has to give it a name.
I almost died choking on my wheat thins, I thank you my good man/woman.
She was pregnant, so somebody rolled her in flour and looked for the wet spot.
That’s such a shame, why would she have vote to hurt herself? Is she stupid?
“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.
Yes. Yes she is.
This is an important bit of cognitive dissonance occurring right now, Christians do not consider their “medically necessary” abortions to be “abortions.” And they don’t think anyone BUT them can actually have a medically necessary one, everyone else is using them for birth control. So the laws should become more restrictive, not less.
