White Americans never got to experience the dark ages, finally they can...
Ma'am, I'll be calling you out for referring to them as "basket of deplorables" back in the day. That was waaaay too polite.
In retrospect….
I'm throwing my hat in for president. When I win wealthy watch out. The American people will be the wealthiest they've ever been.
Women aren't viewed as human beings with rights anymore. We're just disposable incubators.
It's the midevil times..... (with this administration and all Republicans nutjobs)..... What's the proper way to deal with Nazi style regimes via midevil times?
He is not obligated to listen to any of his constituents. that’s what you get when you vote red.
If the 'doctor' is THAT COMPROMISED by their religious or other beliefs, you're better off knowing that immediately. Care is available elsewhere and most OB offices won't ask about marital status. Let the fairytale believers stick to delivering the Mennonite's babies. (Oops, they use midwives).
Fuck. That. Shit. If a doctor is that compromised, he is a fucking danger and should not be allowed to practice medicine at all. That would solve this bullshit real quick, but fuckers seem to have confused the Hippocratic Oath with the Hypocritical Oath.
Partially agree but it's not like we've got enough doctors to go around. Let the fairy tale believers stick to their own kind and I hope the atheists advertise - they'll get my business.
But I’ll bet the good doctor is a great Christian!!!!
Does KKKaroline live in TN? She had a child out of wedlock
After she gives birth are they gonna burn her at the stake?
This is such a great way to encourage women to bear children 🤷🏻♀️
I guess SOMEONE should have codified access to women’s healthcare.
And she surely did not get pregnant by herself
Straight from a Dicken’s novel.
Tennessee is one of the most backwards, uneducated, racist states there is. Fuck this state.
😡🤬
How Christian of them.
Why move forward, continually improve? Why try to make life better for everyone? When you can get the satisfaction of going backwards and causing unnecessary pain and suffering to the weakest in your civilization. Welcome to tRumpamerica where a Pedophile President reins Feloniously. 🚬😎
I will never get married and become the property of a man. Our union is based on energy that can not be destroyed. The government can keep their documents and control.
As a woman approaching 40 who has been with her partner for over eight years, I refuse to get married as it’s my last form of protest. MAGA hates the idea of two successful Caucasians not procreating or conforming to the ideas of their Christian beliefs.
I wish we had not. I mostly wish I had not taken the last name. With that one thing, I will most likely lose my right to vote.
They are coming for all of our freedoms, one way or the other. We all have to prepare ourselves to resist and revolt against the rapist regime and its attempts to devalue us based on our sex. I lived for decades guilty for being a mother and not married. Not anymore. We will fight this!
Can you go through the process to legally change your name? I don’t know how expensive or time consuming it would be.
Margaret, consider everything that has your legal name on it from your home title, credit cards, your clinic to your Netflix account. I cannot even fathom... The cruelty is the point, but more importantly.. We are over 51% of the population.
Well, I mean, you could.... Ask a man THAT question.
Yes. Depending on what county you file in, there is a fee, plus you have to pay for a public notice in a major newspaper near you announcing your intention to change your name in case any one needs to challenge you. I had to change my name to remove my legal first name as I’ve always used my middle
Can you imagine as a man being told you couldn't vote?
Scorched earth but if I moved to a state with those restrictions I have my birth certificate, court order allowing my name change, and passport showing my legal name. A lot of people don’t have their documents hence the voter suppression
You will need to go back to the original states and counties where the names originated. I was foolish enough to be married more than once. It took me awhile but was WELL worth the time and energy to get my name restored to my birth name. I now have readID, passport and all original documents.
👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽This! MY EVERYTHING has my married last name on it. Every. Fu*king. Thing. No fu*king way.
It's a pain in the ass to change things back after a divorce. I got divorced in 2014, and the electric bill is still in my married name. They needed an official copy of the divorce agreement, and I'd already been to the court house twice to order copies. Wasn't going to go a third time.
To all you women out there, I don't care how much in love you think you are, do not change your last name when you get married. Do not hyphenate either. Changing our names goes back to when women were literally the property of their husbands.
Can you imagine how diffiCULT it currently is?? Knowing women are 51% of the American VOTING population?
Imagine having to change all your professional licenses as well. (Crazy complicated!) Marriage makes no sense to me now after going through it but, if someone must do it, the woman should consider keeping her own name in these times.
Yup, yup, yup…so much this!
I have my own business..
I'm from MN, I have to use my Prince GIFs whenever possible. 💜
🤭
Good morning my beautiful Bunny! 💕🙏
Absolutely. Your getting married not changing your identity.
Married twice, currently for 35 consecutive yrs; legally maintained my original surname for 70 yrs and counting. It’s been hassle free and no one questions it. Ppl forget that boomers were the 1st to March for the ERA.
Poor punctuation, sorry about that!
I read right through that without noticing! You're good, girl!
I’m happy to help you with that! Please DM me. Check out my profile I am a safe person. Getting your real ID can be daunting but far from impossible. I just helped a woman get hers and she had a very difficult one.
Thanks for posting this! I've also been saving to get my passport. My Dad called me silly. Where are you going? he asked. Um, I need my documents to carry in case the American Gestapo shows up, trying to kidnap me.
Love that for MEN.
Laws for women vary state to state. The laws for men are the same everywhere. We have a big problem.
Me as well... my mother in law threw such a sh!t hemorrhage over the idea (40years ago) that I gave in to keep the peace. Going tomorrow to get my Real ID drivers license and start paperwork for a passport.
Do it before you can't. Especially the passport!
Good job!
Take your marriage license. It's the only way.
I have a whole folder of my identity paperwork... official copies of everything
I got a safe and put all that stuff together. Proof of homeownership, car ownership etc, for when they attempt to sieze my property for being an unmarried woman.
Wouldn't put it past them...
I remember reading something about Project 2025, and the nuclear family being the only one recognized as one of the goals. I had conversations with my sons in case I had to forfeit my property to them. My Dad called me crazy for worrying. I have been right about everything he chastised me for.
I will do the same. It will all go to my son.
Same. Everything is in my safe. Also, just got my c&c with my 24yo daughter. Turns our I'm a sharp shooter.
We have been put in the position of needing to protect ourselves even more. It's definitely something I've thought about doing recently.
Good for you... C&C? I can shoot if necessary... grew up on archery and it translated to firearms well. My 2 adult kids and hubs can all shoot.
When you take the range portion of the test, you have you $h00t with your non dominant hand without the assistance of your other hand. A loaded gl*ck is heavy. I got 6 in the heart.❤️🔥
Good.
That’s my fear. Own two homes fully paid for and rue the day they try to take them. I will burn them to the ground before I turn them over to this regime!
They are kidnapping people off the street and stealing their property while beating them, you know? I know I am not crazy for believing it is not out of the realm of possibilities. I feel the same. I worked hard for our home and did it on my own. I can't let them take it from me.
Have you seen the "park police" videos??
Same.
The one freebie I got when I divorced my cheating bastard husband was getting my good name back...the name that is on my birth certificate.
Plus, all of the hoops that widows need to jump through now! All because they changed their name, as is traditional. We must stop this coup.
I can't imagine having to go through so much. And I really think it's the point, you know! Stop the coup, absolutely! We can not let a rapist pedophile and its regime destroy us.
My elderly mother said she'd crawl across glass to be able to vote against him.
My 78 y old mother JUST had to go through hoops to get her Real I.D. so she could enter a federal building, where she not only goes to pay her bills, but VOTES. SHE NEVER GAVE UP. Had to go to another county to get a CERTIFIED copy of the marriage certificate.We are in for a RUDE awakening, people.
Same.
You also gave up your background, your culture and family name. If you were Italian and married an Irishman you’d be considered Irish for the rest of your life. Your identity is gone.
👆🏽Most certainly!❤️🔥
I call my man "hubby" though I've never signed a single document to prove it. We've been together for almost 25 years. We always said that we'd marry when our lgbt+ friends could marry, but when that time came, we just didn't. If it ain't broke, don't fix it😉
That's just beautiful. And to think I once thought I was a failure because I wasn't asked by the father of my children. We stayed together years longer than we should have. Our friendship and coparenting now is better than a marriage would have been. 💙💙💙
I see no failure there, though I'm sure it hurt just the same. The failure would have been to marry, be miserable, end the marriage viciously, and scar those precious children you two share. That was my childhood and I'd not recommend it to anyone.
I wish I had known those things when I was young. Wasted a lot of time hating myself instead of trusting my feelings. Now, I know better, and my life is better for it. I have met so many with similar experiences and revelations, and the community helps. Didn't have that before, either.
Glad you made it through those dark times. Cheers to surviving and thriving!
Thanks so much for your kind words! Cheers to us!
I’m in a 17 yr relationship and I would never.
Agreed! Am 67 and with my partner for 35 years and have an adult child together! Told him on our first date I’m never getting married! I don’t mate well in captivity!
I read Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind. I shed all the Catholic guilt I was raised with. I am not property nor put on this Earth for a man to control.
Same! My dad told me when I was 19 that he and my mom had a wonderful and equal marriage and he was afraid I’d never marry. I’m the 4th of 5 kids. I asked him if he’d ever changed a diaper or dine a load of laundry. End of conversation.
I think about the indoctrination of my youth often. They almost had me. Then, I discovered the truth about so many things I was ignorant of. If only I'd known then, I would have suffered far less. I think about things like that all the time, too!
Still trying to figure that out myself.
Unreal.
Sweet jesus. Is this just about seeing how cruel they can get?
And Americans think that America is great!
Oh, trust me. Most of us actually don't.
And when the US is set right again, we should track down this physician and ruin his practice and his life. May he rot on earth.
Those are not doctors
It is Taliban.
Is that part of the Ten Commandments?
1825
This is just Tennerssssaayyyyy, not America. Tennersssaayyyy is not IN America, and really has nothing to do with america. Tennersayyy is a place in Hitler's Third Reich, but they can't spell Reich and were not aware of WW2. That's what happens when all the men who run a place fuck their daughters.
Dystopian horror.😱
Shameful, disgraceful and unacceptable 👎🤬🤬🤬🤬
Doesn't the medical ethics board counter the Hippocratic oath? How do doctors reconcile that?
Palestinian babies are starving
And I thought they took a Hypocratic oath, not a Hypocritic one. Dr's that deny care because they disagree with a patients lifestyle should be struck off.
I hope people are remembering who these people are so that way when sanity returns these people can be dealt with accordingly
Dude the list is so long. We will all have to compare notes to be thorough.
100% agree
Underrated post 👆
Thanks.
And struck.
How about women who wear pants, gasp. Now, there's an unacceptable lifestyle.
If this "doctor" makes this type of decision, I wouldn't want them making any medical decisions for me or anyone. This "Dr." should be reported and put on a list, any expecting mothers should avoid the hospital were the Dr practices.
Let's not overlook all the pharmacists who refuse to fill birth control prescriptions.
HRT too
Can they refuse someone wearing a MAGA hat asking for a friend…
It’s one of the few instances in which I support post-birth abortion.
I hope so
the manosphere decides? when are women going to stand up for women and children???
But I thought all they cared about was the life of the child? I’m confused? Is all life precious or are they just using religion to control how people live their lives?
That’s it. The republicans, and ESPECIALLY THESE REPUBLICANS don’t give a damn about children.. they protect pedophiles and install them as president. They just want a larger voting block of uneducated adults for the future who will continue to keep the fascist in power while living off potatoes.
I believe it’s all about control and dictating how we should live 😞
But it is OK to support a pedophile.
What's next? Will they deny care based on the color of your skin? Your choice of partner? The length of your skirt? #FuckTheGOP #Amerikkka great yet, #GreedyOldPendejos?
Yep
If the mother or baby die or have serious birth defect or issues. The Doctor should be put in jail for premediated murder. They would not think twice about putting the mother in jail if she had a miscarriage.
Hi Hillary. I hope you're doing well through all this madness, especially since the e- mail thing is being drudged up AGAIN. I can't believe we've wasted this much time and money just to expose the manchurian candidate and his idiot minions. I dream of normalcy again. Stay safe. Love LOVE.
It's like living under a misogynist who sees females only as subservient to men and sex slaves............oh hang on.................
Time is no longer relevant. We are living in a dystopian society where women’s rights no longer matter or exist. Dangerous horrific times.
Ironic someone placed an Adult Content label on this when it shows exactly what the Russian owned Child Rapist says about women.
Have you thought about suing Candace Owens for defamation?
Have you considered moving to California?
They should consider moving to Canada or Europe. Heck, even ITALY would make a better choice!
Shameful!
Dinosaurs!
Jesus jumped up Christ! Psychos...
I think we're in the "Dark Ages" again.
Getting there fast aren’t we?
Think?
I'm starting to wonder if we ever left them.
So lemme get this straight ... regressive activists will allow babies and their mothers to die rather than help them? Is that where we're at now? Thank God my kid was born a boy. This is a terrible time to be female in America. Heaven help us all.
JFC. Fast track to Gilead
Well, you told us so! Welcome back to 1959.
Right on, Hillary
Oooh, pro-lifers at work again. Vote out this republican shit bags!
😳😳😳🤬🤬
So much for the Hippocratic Oath... 🤦
The scale of ethical degeneracy is incredible. This behaviour is unworthy of a physician's vocation, criminal, and ultimately simply sad.
I worry if they've r*ped, or impregnated female patients, under sedation.
We have to stop Republicans, now! They need to be removed from all government positions. They need to be in prison for their crimes against humanity.
Tennessee was the state-level prototype for Project 2025. People need to follow the @thetnholler.bsky.social to keep up with what they're doing.
Let me play it out like a courtroom! Prosecution: Our client has the right to deny you care based on your ethics. Defendant: I was going for prenatal care. Done.
😡😡😡
i’m putting it about 1864
Puts it smack dab in the middle of the CIVIL WAR. WTF did you think THIS was?🤬 Get ready to FIGHT, sister. The dirtier, the better. You won’t get ribbons for *nice*
that was my point we’re in a civil war once more, even if there aren’t traditional battlefields in this one
All right then! Welcome to the FIGHT. Kuz that’s what it is. If you you are cooperating IN ANY WAY, you are complicit. Women need to STRIKE— no talking, no cooking, no errands, no helping, no nada. See how long that lasts. You have the Power. USE it🤬
haven’t since my divorce, quite some time ago 🤷🏻♀️
I am just so freaking MAD.🤬 I gets worse & worse every day & ain’t no one doin NOTHING. Well okay. NOTHING it is. No talk, no help, no work, no taxes—Zippo. We DO have the Power. What’s easier than doing NOTHING??!🤬
👏🏻🏆🥇💯💣💥
Who NEEDS ‘em? I say🤬
I think of it more as an uncivil war.
i wouldn’t be surprised if we get states seceding within the next decade or so
Name the doctor.
Thinking 1930s Germany...
So the doctors don’t have a Hippocratic oath in the US?
They just have the hypocritic oath 🤷
They haven't for a long time.
If you don't want to care for those with medical needs -- regardless of whether you agree with their "lifestyle" -- then you shouldn't become a doctor or nurse. Can doctors refuse to treat cancer patients who smoked or heart patients who are overweight? Where does this MAGA extremism end?
It doesn’t end
And the Veterans Administration can now deny services to Democrats and/or Unmarried Veterans. Google it.
The Land of the Free...
It's horrific they allow this. Any doctor found doing this should have their license revoked.
So...if I'm a Red Sox fan that happens to be a physician I can legally refuse to treat Yankee fans because I don't agree with their lifestyle. Gotcha. Nice work, Tennessee
Yes, short of you working in a qualifying Emergency Department and the patient is in an unstable condition, you can do that in Massachusetts or any other state. Being a Yankees fan is not a protected class. It makes you a shitty person, but not violating the law. The two are not synonymous.
That may be the law, but it's morally indefensible
Yes, I just said that.
Only religious hate and bigotry please
Not that I'm a BoSox fan, but from my clinical observations hating the Yankees ascends to a religion & bigotry for a goodly number of the Boston faithful.
Maybe. But without real estate and tax free status with the IRS no bigotry or discrimination for them. Well, no legal stuff anyway
🤣🤣😭😭 Truly don't know if I should laugh or cry these days
It does feel like we are in a SNL skit that was rejected for being too absurd for people to believe. But maybe it's always been this way. Imagine being born in 1900 and all the changes and lunacy you lived .
The attack by the right-wing on women and girls continues at high speed. It will get worse as the trump criminal organization continues to disregard the Constitution and the rule of law.
If this is true, and care was denied by a doctor due to marital status... publish this doctor's name. Blow it up! All over the internet! So that everyone, including licensing agencies, consumer groups, medical companies, and hospitals system, all know his name by heart.
It is true, but it's because Tennessee JUST passed a "Medical Ethics" act that allows providers to deny care if they disagree with their patients' lifestyle. This surely was pushed as a way to punish the LGBTQIA+ community, but that's how it always goes- hatred hurts EVERYONE.
hopefully it goes both ways... when the doctor's patients refuse to pay their invoice because they discovered what they deem as the Doctor's disgusting lifestyle, perhaps we'll see change.
Exactly! Internet, find the doctor, find the hospital, find the healthcare system. But above all, find the doctor, and break him. That law essentially “allows” him to murder. Imagine, legally sanctioned serial killer masquerading as a physician. BTW, I used “he/him” intentionally.
wait, isn't she pregnant? don't they have to take care of her to save the baby? I am confused on where these peoples moral f'n high ground is.
Good morning. Isn’t this what Christ told us to do?? I will never understand how maga can reason that this is the right thing to do. Sad.
I guess we must have all missed the verse where Jesus asked the leper if they had premarital relations before he healed him. Maybe he should be charged with trying to cause an abortion through medical neglect.
Hyppocratic Oath? Do No Harm?
Hypocrites Oath. Vote Republican.
Tennessee is still stuck in the days of the Confederacy.
And choking Memphis with methane has for Elon while they build him a concentration camp subway tunnel.
sounds like those docs need to have their license revoked...
Yet they are protecting a known pedo rapist. Sounds about right.
OMG! 😱 This is horrible. Even For a party that believes in every birth must occur(and not child care) this is a new low and judgement is laid at her feet but it takes 2 to tango. And some men wonder why women secretly seek abortions!
😡😡😡😡😡
Well USA she is just a woman. You guys voted for this. This is your mess. Do something.
She now just a woman***.
It's called the 1st amendment. You don't have to like it, but that's what it is. Just as it applies to Chick-fil-a, Hobby Lobby and all the idiots spouting their opinions and outrage about this article that they obviously did Not read.
Disgusting.
Also why can’t physician be identified so he can be avoided? You shouldn’t have to make an appointment and then be humiliated and shamed by a sociopath with a medical degree. He needs to be outed
Because that works both ways? There are people in prison who hunted down and murdered doctors who performed abortions.
That is true but they never hid their identities and worked to help women. I I have no sympathies for religious bigots disguised as doctors.
Agreed! Post the doctors name as a warning to others. Review them on Yelp. Something!!
Yes. Yes there are
Medical Ethics Defense allows discrimination? Thats some next level irony right here.
Marsha said that whore can have healthcare as soon as she gets right with Jesus.
I'm a little slow and then I figured it out both her sons holding one of her breasts, uh oh, what goes on behind closed doors😳 LOOKS LIKE HER SONS HAVE ALREADY GOTTEN RIGHT WITH JESUS🤪
Is she in the files too? 🤦♀️🙄🤢
What the fickity-fuckity-foo is this abomination?!
Creepy as all gir out
Is she a pedophile? I mean, it looks like she is.
Trump has legalized cruelty, hate, misogyny, any prejudice a person may have. He's made it legal to persecute people you dislike, he has declared war on women, immigrants, anyone he disagrees with. We're living in dangerous times, particularly women in red states. Overwhelmingly vote Democratic
What is her complexion?
But I bet the man who fathered this baby can get any healthcare he needs.... even though he's not married either
Or married to someone else 🤷♀️. They seem to be okay with that too.
Or a rapist; they seem to be fine with that, too. 😡
Definitely. A rapist even has parental rights in some states.
🤮
i didn't realize it was the scarlet letter time period
They are speed running us back to medieval times
We live in a post-oath world. They mean nothing.
We should have razed the south to the ground & started over after the Civil War and hanged ALL of the traitors. Better yet, we should have listened to Abigail Adams!!!!
I wonder if that doctor would have treated Karoline Leavitt? If memory serves, this serial lying, good all-American catholic girl met her man in 2023, gave birth in 2024, got married in 2025. There's also a little bit of an age gap. But she does wear a cross necklace, so that's alright then. 😇🤥
As of a few days ago, she wasn't wearing it. I don't know if she went back to wearing it again.
You saw it You warned us. A bunch just refused to believe you. So many of us are suffering from the ignorance.
I'm reading a book right now about girls who were sent away to maternity homes. 1800s- 1970s. Chilling.😱
Shit. Jesus was not Joseph's son. How would they have treated Mary?
May I paint a picture here. Jesus was a brow-skinned, long haired, foreigner from the middle east. He was poor as hell, ragged multiple times against the authoritys and claimed he has an imaginary almighty Daddy. How do you think this Guy would be treated? Shoot on spot or el Salvador KZ?
They'd have fired her DEI butt, kicked her off SNAP for not working, stripped her right to vote, and demanded that she pull herself up by her own sandal straps. But only if they didn't deport her to El Salvador for being unable to prove citizenship, which they wouldn't allow her to do if she could.
The supposed "pro-life" party who constantly complained how women arent having babies due to various things like abortion & birth control etc. The hypocrisy is mind boggling
Tennessee Shocker
This is heartbreaking.
It "allows" the denial of care, it doesn't "demand" it. Those physicians who deny care violate the Hippocratic oath and should be struck off.
This isn't even about abortion!
Why doesn’t anyone name this physician? Maybe I missed it in the article.
EXACTLY 💯
So the Hippocratic oath is dead too?
It's more hypocriticalor hypothetical.
I took an oath to help all people. A patient's religion, marital status, ethnicity, country of origin, sexual orientation, gender etc has no bearing on their treatment. It is my job to treat people with kindness and help treat them for whatever issue brought them to my door. Simple.
Apparently to simple for some folks
YOU Took an oath to help all people, but a lot of people get into healthcare for the money and the ego stroking. I can introduce you to several dozen of them. I’ve been their patient.
😔
BTW Hillary, you need to sue Tulsi Gabbard for deformation.
Scary!! They can stick their judgments up their @ss and treat any and all that need medical care. Do no harm!
Unbelievable! Why on earth would any woman want to live in a Republican state!?
it's unfortunately very difficult to leave dysfunctional states for better ones, atleast partially because of the severe income gap between the two. imagine having to save up enough from $7/hr to afford to relocate to a state where rent is too expensive for people who make $20/hr.
you asked 'want', but the only women who 'want' to live there have been heavily groomed into internalized misogyny and self sabotaging behaviors... if a person has been denied every personal detail down to their own thoughts their entire life, not even they can know who they are or what they want.
/not saying zero women genuinely approve of what goes on in red states, as women have just as much capacity for sadism as men. but simple sadists would atleast have the self preservation to not sit in their own fire. this kind of self-sabotage takes years of coercion and suppression of identity.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, Pro Life.
I’m certain those people denying daycare to single mothers are also in favor of forced birth for single women.
Wait, these are the "pro-life" people? So "life" only matters when the mother-to-be is *married*? Funny how they left that part out. OR, maybe this was never about "life" in the first place...
It never was. It has always been about CONTROL over women.
And specifically punishing women for non-reproductive sex but here we see that even that's not enough, as the excuse changes to non-martial sex.
Non-martial? 😂😂😂😂
*non-marital
Non-marital, I think, although “non-martial” has an ominous ring to it…
You called it years ago, Sec. Clinton… basket of deplorables!
She got it right long before deplorable when she said Vast Right-wing Conspiracy.
She called the student her husband assaulted a looney toon and a liar. She suddenly became a fan of gay marriage 10 years ago. Refusing people medical care is horrible and Hillary is on the right side of this but she is also deplorable. All successful career politicians are.
Not ashamed to reveal your ignorance? Or Russian bot? HRC has a lifetime record of making people's lives better-would've been best pres in U.S. history. Your condemning "all career politicians" = watchword of those pushing for authoritarianism. And what have you ever done to improve people's llives?
HRC was being kind when she referred to them as deplorables, they are much worse.
And what has happened since then makes that statement make them look better than they are now, maybe basket of racists, misogynists, homophobes and pedophile protectors
True… they deserve the downgrade.
Basket of despicables.
But it was a lot more than half of them. Other than that, she was right about everything. #StillWithHer
This is bizarre!
Felon Trump is dragging America back to the Dark Ages.
When will this bull💩 stop??????
Only in America... Land of the...
😡🥲🥲😡😡
I remember stories about bakers refusing to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple. That's bad. But this is next level bad. I'd say it's downright unethical for a doctor to refuse care on this basis. First do no harm? How is denying care doing no harm?
Any physician who refuses to treat any patient because they don't approve of that persons life should have their medical license revoked and be banned from ever practicing medicine. You take the modern version of the hippocratic oath to do no harm and to treat every patient regardless of
ones personal views, or a patients age, sexuality, gender, nationality, politics, religion etc etc - If you can't do that then you shouldn't be in the health profession.
A law was passed (April 2025) in TN which allowed docs to do just that. www.wkrn.com/news/tenness...
That law should be considered illegal and struck down!
Agreed. And I agree that they should not be allowed to practice medicine. It is definitely a clear violation of the Hippocratic Oath!
Not only that, it is a direct violation of the Constitution and the Founding Fathers wishes.
Vanderbilt University Medical Center gave all the medical records of teen,adult gender patients to the Tennessee AG without notification to the clients,parents/ guardians. Six months later GOP legislators refer to the hippa covered medical records. This is when patients discovered the breach.
That should be considered a violation of privacy and the Constitution upon which your Nation was founded and prosecuted accordingly. The individuals rights of the common and uncommon man must be respected!
The Vanderbilt Records breach was in late 2022. The patients were not made aware until Spring of 2023. The AG wrongly claimed he had authority to see billing issues and as claimed he had a right to entire history.
That was Government overreach and a direct violation of an individuals right to life liberty and pursuit of happiness. Garland had no right to exert such pressure or ruling.
The 2025 law appears to address both Vanderbilt’s and the AG’s mishandling, breach of Hippa law. In 2023 Civil suits were filed regarding the Vanderbilt breach and were dropped or were settled with no public comment.
I'm not sure that Is a good thing. Health Corporations that violate patient privacy/confidentiality should have their licences revoked and charges brought. No deals!
TIME: Vanderbilt’s Decision to Turn Over Trans Patient Records to the State Sparks Backlash BY ANISHA KOHLI JUNE 23, 2023 10:17 AM ED
🫨😔
Crazy country, glad I left 25 years ago!
It's the middle ages.
Well, they have joy ... they get it out of seeing the suffering of people they hate. So loathsome. I'm growing to hate this country. It's proudly showing off the rancid, foul racism that has been part of its heritage from day one.
I do not consider that to be real joy, but I do take your point.
...not to mention the equally rancid, foul sexism that came hand in hand with the racism...
Tennessee really is a shit hole.
Bastards!
What can be done to stop this?
What a waste of civil war was
What world is this?
Clear Trump has put USA into dark ages… I’m just waiting for the mandatory red cape and white hoods executive order…2 weeks I hear
At which the real women of the U.S.A. will abandon hope and don, not red capes, but rifles with scopes (some of our eyes are not as sharp as they used to be, but our anger is much deeper). I'll claim a space above a mountain pass and watch out for the sign of the devil. Not so hard.
Are they for or against the unborn lives? I get so confused.
and it will get worse
Do they remember Mary was unmarried?
But it's OK, because *God* is the one who knocked her up without her consent!
It's okay, most of them are just CINOs anyway.
GOD HAVE MERCY! I guess folks in Tennessee don't know that MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS THE CHRIST WAS AN UNWED PERSON. SHALOM SHALOM
BuT hEr eMaiLs!11!!!
I don't even know what to say...🤦🏽♀️
Maybe if you didn't rig a primary we wouldn't be here.
If you don't value human life, don't become a physician.
The shocking thing in this story to me is that it happened in Nashville, Tennessee's most liberal city.
Those doctors, that hospital needs to all be sued!
Dear God can you please notify Tennessee of what year it is? They seem to have misplaced their calendars. You may want to give them a good shake while you’re at it too. Thank you from the rest of the World
Christian ISIS kills women every day.
I say again: not one word of any scripture was written by the G_d described within. Every word was written by human males with earthly needs for shelter and food. "King James Version"
And You've not already the abortion type in Numbers 5.11
I don't understand what you're saying
Sorry. Typo I was supporting "If you dont support abortion rights... then a person should read Numbers Chapter 5 Verse 11. In there, it gives a process and recipe to get the Priest to perform an abortion / cause a miscarriage. Abortion isn't opposed in the Bible.
Hey George - are you an active atheist in real life? It isn't yet as urgent here in the UK as it is in USA. If any believers wonder why atheists are active - watch last Sunday's Jubilee with Medi Hassan. The filthiest and most vile people were super clear in explaining their views. Terrifying.
Happy Friday Cotswoldy Haven't seen that broadcast but frankly, I'm not surprised. It's understandable that 11-year-olds in adult bodies are gullible enough to accept mythology without question.
And they all had an agenda.…keep women subservient.
I happen to be a #gnostic theist: I'm *certain* there is a Goddess. :)
Let me know when you’re sure.
Or..,...hear me out, no gods at all. Just us trying to figure this shit out
I actually am gnostic: I can prove a creator to any rational mind, tho I won't bother you with it, primarily bcz it is considered good form worth rewarding to aspire to omniscience voluntarily. If there is an "omniscience", I suggest one look to "all science" for evidence. #DoTheObvious I sez.
Sounds like a claim to know the unknown. I really doubt it you could do what you say. But that's probably just proof I am not ready yet. Does this creator interact with us in any measurable, significant way? If all it did was spit, fart, wish,speak this universe into life and split, Who cares?
> unknown Opposite: it's obvious, but there's food and gold in pretending it's mysterious. Short answer is a parallel "spirit" (think: platonic forms) universe that tends towards (about 2/3) and rewards "good" in 7+ dimensions. Current events raises doubts lol, but it's just garbage collection.
Definitely agree on obvious and a good con in faking it's mysterious. It's obvious we evolved on this insignificant, significantly bombarded, little rock that managed to collect water/air for a terrarium. It's obvious it's a violent, bloodthirsty system Spirits,gods, parallel goodness? Not so much
I should add that my beliefs are wholly non-denominational: very little in pop religion or spirituality matches any evidence I have. But yes: it/we are intelligent by *choice* and that's how we *stop* the violence. We can unlearn "evil" and get our Garden back, so to speak. 1/2
Ex: I'm garden-esque "innocent" literally: I commit no crimes, break no commandments, practice the virtues. The opposite is also observable, in the churches and in government, and the more they want their sin the worse THEY get, but not me. And note they want god powers but hate science. Lol. :)
I have said this my entire adult life! Do not trust anything written by men about women!!
it doesn't say if the woman in q is brown or black, ..but that would also be business as usual in TN I am afraid
Sadly, we're still kind of around this point, except his feet are on fire now too.
There’s a conversation about challenging whether Christianity is even a religion.
It’s been said that the church never burned witches, the church burned women
Let's call out Christian extremists for what they are without bringing Islam into it. That just deflects from Christianity's failures and is a form of Christian supremacism. Also, fuck Sherman, that genocidal fuck. What he did to indigenous tribes was deplorable.
ISIS and Christians have more in common than not.
You enabled and defended your sexual predator husband. We’re all ready for you to go away.
So, it isn't REALLY about the baby. It's a morality thing.
Also wondering if he used that as an excuse to not consult on a pregnancy. Too much risk.
This is antithetical to every principle that physicians are taught. What kind of doctor would turn away a patient based on the patient’s lifestyle? This doctor should lose their medical license.
I'm a woman in TN. I assure you that I did not vote for this, nor did any woman I know personally. We're in a red state where gerrymandering has made it impossible to win blue. Did some women vote for farty 7? Yes, sadly, but not every woman in red states.
Republicans in gerrymandered districts can vote blue any time they choose to. Maybe when someone they know is personally affected, they will wake up.
Makes zero sense.
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!
😳😳😳
Next thing you know know they'll bring back stoning & witch dunking.
You are welcome in Illinois!
She thought she was about 4 weeks pregnant. She wasn't denied care. She was denied a horrible biased doctor. She really got lucky. I wouldnt want no one near me that is biased liek that. Example: I live in Texas. I go back to Illinois for my care.
Most people do not have the luxury of interstate travel for healthcare. And there’s no guarantee that Texas, in particular, won’t track you down and punish you for doing that. Sad, sad state of affairs.
I agree. I barely can get home for care.
Indeed, for many people, even the freedom to seek medical care is a luxury, and policy uncertainty exacerbates this fear. In a country that claims to be free, this reality is really chilling.
But they are pro life
Medical Fascism
Women need to leave those idiotic Southern States and get to safety!
Just wanted to say hello Miss President.
The Hippocratic oath has gone the way of the constitution.
Must be the hypocritical oath.
So if I’m a doctor, can I refuse to provide medical care to someone if I disapprove of their “Republican lifestyle?”
Yes, but you are probably a decent human being, so wouldn't do that.
Do you support releasing the Trumpstien files?
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡What an Unforgivable action by a Doctor!
YIkes!! 🫣🤢 @Tennessee will never get another penny from me.
THIS is what they promised. Do YOU have $30k-$50k in your bank account to pay for your daughters delivery? Loss of work? Pediatrician bills? Layette? Childcare?
And the best part (by which I mean the disgusting part) is that when she tried to talk to her senators about this they blew her off. “We’re under no obligation” to give a damn about you.
Sue them
TN is a crappy place all around. Bad roads, govt doesn’t care abt its people (no emerg dec for Helene victims?!), high crime, low standard of living, little to no education funding. So I ask myself who would want to live in those conditions amd realize those aren’t my people. Ex Dolly is good ppl
Yet another example of good “Christian” ProLife reasoning… I only care about certain lives I deem “worthy.” F*ck the lot of you sanctimonious a**holes!
The GOP casting “burn her at the stake” vibes.
The way things are going, that could very well be next.
I bet being black qualifies as a lifestyle.
This is so wrong.
The best part of medical ethics is when they don't require them to be applied. Is being a minority a lifestyle? I could see this being used next.
You’re about the only Neoliberal in the planet Not screaming about the #EpsteinFiles How does it feel to be aligned with rapists? #BeileveWomen Start with Anita Broaddrick
Bill is in the flight logs, she ain’t sayin shit

Omg!! LIFESTYLE?!!! Is this the Middle Ages again? Will she be burned at the stake next? What if this was a man? How long would this last? Not even a minute! She’s a HUMAN BEING!!! Give her the healthcare she requires!! Horrible! 🤬🤬🤬
They forget that Joseph was not the father of Mary's baby.
I get your point though. These “doctors” would have turned away the Holy Family. Letter of the law but totally miss Christ’s teachings.
The same thought occurred to me.
"God" was the father. Okay, Joe. Time for your medication. Your wife cheated on you.
How can God be the father when God is a woman?
I used to share that sentiment, but then I realize it would be tantamount to blaming women for the world's woes. As fucked up the world is, if there was a god, he's definitely a white man and an asshole.
😅
Really? Oh, what is happening here?
Republicans
Middle age
🤬🤬🤬
The dark ages is what it feels like.
