I think you’ll have a hard time finding a doctor to write the second script after you sue the first one. Of course it’s possible, and probable, that no one is going to send these pills to anyone in Texas whether they have a script or not. They’ll be directed to get them from a local pharmacy.
Of course the point of the law is to get enterprising people to do exactly that, try to get rich suing these businesses so they leave the state in disgust.
Well, that’s just a matter of timing it right. You get multiple doctors to write scripts within a short period of time, then sue them all after that. I’m sure the law has some deadlines spelled out, so it’s just a matter of working within that time constraint.
I also wonder if HIPPA could help here? If the husband and wife have different last names, and you can argue that you don’t need to reveal the wife’s name in public court filings, and the doctors involved are forbidden to publish the woman’s name, it might be hard for the next target to learn that prescribing to her is a bad idea.
Watching the clip, it seems like he was responding to an angry constituent yelling out that they didn’t come there to “listen to his lies” or something similar.
To which he responded, “OK, if you didn’t want to hear my lies, why did you come here?”
So I guess he meant to say something like “alleged lies” or “supposed lies” but that’s not what he said.
The Democrats (and any other opponent of this guy) should play this clip non-stop.
Tucker thingks Pete Buttigieg is lying about being gay. If Tucker ever gets the change to interview him, he plans to ask him “some very specific questions about gay sex” to “see if he can even answer.”
I wonder if anyone has pointed out it out to Tucker that if Pete won’t be able to answer these questions, it would imply Tucker is gay for knowing the ‘correct’ answer. I mean, the logic isn’t real sound there, I know, but I’m confident Tucker doesn’t understand logic anyways.
I think Pete should respond to Tucker’s request by saying something like “Just because I turned you down doesn’t mean I’m not gay, I’m sorry you feel that way, but it’s time to stop obsessing and move on”.
It’s right out of the book “How To Succeed In American Politics”.
Page 1 begins: “Pretend to be gay.”
I hope Pete offers to come on his show for an interview. That would be interesting, to say the least.
If You Eat Radioactive Shrimp, you could have a body like this.
Louisiana Rep John Kennedy didn’t say exactly that, but close enough. He even showed a picture (of the chest-burster) to make his point.
“Mr. President, this is a photograph of the alien from the movie ‘Alien,’” said Kennedy. “This is what you could end up looking like if you eat some of the raw frozen shrimp being sent to the United States by other countries. Now let me tell you what I’m talking about.”
I’m not a big fan of radioactive shrimp, but you gotta wonder about his mental processes.
Pete would eat him alive.
Not literally of course.
Though if he literally ate him alive, my only concern would be with Pete’s health.
Seriously.
What is this—-desperation to help out the Big Orange Guy by changing the topic away from Epstein? I can’t otherwise fathom how Tucker Carlson could think someone would pretend to be gay as a means of moving up in politics.
Of course Tucker is pretty obsessive about men’s bodies (witness his infamous advocacy for Testicle Tanning).
Accufession.
It worked for (allegedly) James Buchanan!
Ah, yes, James Buchanan. Everyone’s favorite President, one of our most beloved and admired political figures.
Ah, but you’ve heard of him. And he did get elected President!
No message.
If you have not seen Last Week Tonight’s take on Senator Kennedy, let me just note that not only have they collected a long showreel of clips of him saying batshit insane things, but a disturbingly large number of them veer into sexual content for no apparent reason. He is a deeply weird man.
You have a link for that particular one. Or an approximate date? Thanks.
Sen. Elissa Slotkin says the Manhattan Project won the race for nuclear technology between the US and…
-checks notes- Russia.
Yeah, but…
Elissa Slotkin is…
-checks notes- a Democrat.
Well, that’s embarrassing.
