Holy crap. That is horrifying. I remember my mother telling me how when she was pregnant in the early ‘60s women told each other if you have any problems with the pregnancy do not go to a Catholic hospital.

Ectopic pregnancy: the thing doctors love to ignore. 😠

Kings evil was scrofula which was or is tuberculosis of the skin. And it was believed up into the 18th century, maybe even longer, that if the king touched you it would make it magically heal.

Scalise is beyond redemption. Ta, MM. I saw that interview, and it was disgusting.

Nah, that’s just taking some random condition the person has when they die and calling it the cause of death. Even today doctors do that especially with old people. They are not supposed to.

That, also too he looks like he’s made out of test tube meat.

First thought on seeing that: look how much hair that bastard has! I am way younger and female and mine is thinning out. #BaldnessForOldsters

I've seen Scalise in person one time. Here in NOLA when he was still a state legislator representing a suburban district. We were seated at adjacent tables in a high-end Chinese restaurant, and he was berating the waiter for poor service. When has a waiter in a legit white-tablecloth Chinese place been anything but attentive? Jerk then, jerk now.

I tell women not to go to Catholic hospitals now. They are perfectly willing to sacrifice you on the alter of their irrationality.

I’m not talking about the religion, per se. I’m talking about refusing to accept that an ectopic pregnancy is a miscarriage. Because there was one case where an embryo implanted on the outside of a uterus and the baby and woman survived, and therefore God might allow embryos to survive outside the uterus and therefore they shouldn’t remove the “product of conception” even though the woman is exsanguinating right in front of them. Irrational.

The Big Lie is extremely important to the GOP right now. WI state legislature*, among others, are trying to make it very hard to vote in order to "restore faith in the voting process". Without constantly pushing the big lie, that particular house of cards falls apart even faster than most GOP bullslhit.

* goddamn them all to hell.
