A doctor says he performed an abortion on Sept. 6 that violated Texas’s new law.

http://busingers.ca/2009 Sad that in 2021 I have to explain to a GOP Governor that:

1. “6 weeks pregnant” = 2 weeks late for your period
2. Periods are late all the time from stress, diet,etc
3. Most people know their rapists

but GOP want to have more control over your body than you do, so here we are. https://t.co/IVCGHvkp6q
