Up next, forced pregnancy checks at the borders of red states.

[NightWatcher]

All females over the age of 10 will be subjected to pregnancy checks (blood, urine, or ultrasound wands) as they attempt to cross into a blue state.

Try to take a pregnant woman over the border and find yourself arrested and the female imprisoned until delivery (at least).

Tell me I'm wrong, I'll wait.

2. This is happening in Poland

In Poland, (abortion is illegal) when a woman goes to a doctor/hospital for ANY reason, she is checked for pregnancy. If she is, that fact is entered in her digital file. If she does not end up giving birth, the health facility will know.

8. To be fair, when I was still of childbearing age,

that question was asked of me anytime I sought medical care.

It’s fairly standard.

9. Poland

This is new in Poland and solely to track if a woman was pregnant and still is so she can be charged if she does not give birth.

3. Miscarriages will be treated as crimes

4. It's not illegal to be pregnant

Even a single woman. so what would this info get them, nothing. But, I agree with you that life will be hell for women in other ways from these assholes.

7. No, you don't understand

They’ll also be tested on the way back. If they were pregnant when they left and aren’t when they get back, they have a lot to answer for.

5. You are not wrong. My fear:

Women will have to prove the circumstances behind miscarriages and doctors will have to report miscarriages to the state for investigation. But, I guess that’s okay because a right to privacy isn’t expressly guaranteed in the Constitution.

All the horrible implications of this will become clearer over time.

This country is no longer at the brink. It’s gone off the damned cliff.

6. They're already talking about this in some states

Republicans have been working out how to prevent women from leaving the state while pregnant.

10. Need those white babies.

The health and wellbeing of the mother means nothing.

Abortion was illegal in Nazi Germany.
