The Seattle Children’s Hospital filed a lawsuit in Travis County District Court on Dec. 7 against the Texas Office of the Attorney General (OAG), after that agency requested documents related to gender transition policies and any such care provided to Texas children.
Why in the Kentucky fried fuck is Texas asking Seattle about that.
We all know why. I’m just surprised the hospital responded with a lawsuit instead of a “go fuck yourself.”
It does bring more attention if they drag out the go fuck yourself bit with a lawsuit but they definitely need a huge go fuck yourself with a rake letter here.
Both demands include a notice that failure to comply could result in a misdemeanor criminal charge that would carry a $5,000 fine or jail confinement of up to a year.
It sounds like the state could imprison the hospital’s personnel if they ever traveled to Texas (or any other jurisdiction that might jail them on Texas’ behalf).
Yeah I said that this was the inevitable outcome of RvW being overturned. It’s a matter of time now. The line of the ensuing civil war will be drawn over these state extradition agreements, and if a Republican ever gets the presidency again they will use the feds to forcibly extradite doctors to Texas.
Suck a dick, Texas.
No, but there’s not as many of them as you might think. TX is gerrymandered to hell, voter suppression abounds, and so many people don’t think beyond the R it’s astounding. The Republicans have created an environment where they almost can’t help but stay in power. If everyone eligible to vote in TX was able to do so properly, the state would look a lot more purple.

The people who elect the ass hats aren’t representative of all Texans, and they’re dying off.
Texas is becoming more and more blue every day, which is why the government is doing everything they can to suppress Democrat voters.
Texas should just get it over with and invade America so we can put them back in their place where they belong
Greg Abbott was famously one of the dingleberries fooled by Russian propaganda about operation Jade Helm and instructed the Texas national guard to “watch over” the operation as if they matter at all in the considerations of a joint millitary nation-wide operation. In other words, their delusions are already most of the way there.
I continue to be annoyed that texas is wasting all of this time on this. Go solve real problems. Except republicans are seemingly incapable of that, so I guess this is what we get.
States rights!!
(Republicans: not like that!)
