A woman in Louisiana said that she has been told that she must carry a fetus without a skull and part of its head to term or travel out of state to recieve an abortion.

Nancy Davis, a mother of one, is 13 weeks pregnant. Several weeks ago, an initial ultrasound revelead to Ms Davis that the fetus would have no chance of surviving — but because Louisiana’s abortion ban does not include an exception for acrania, the condition the fetus is suffering from, she cannot get a legal abortion in the state.

If Ms Davis does want to get an abortion, she will have to travel out of state to Florida. But time is running out for her to make a decision: Florida has banned abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy, giving Ms Davis a small window to schedule an appointment and arrange her travel should she decide to get the procedure.

Louisiana is among the Republican-led states that passed extremely restrictive abortion bans to take effect in a post-Roe v Wade landscape. The state has banned all abortions except for cases in which the mother’s life is in jeopardy or in some cases in which the fetus is nonviable.

2024 Presidential runs will be announced soon & there's speculation that there will be a crowded field for the GOP run.

Yes, I understand that WE DONT KNOW who is going to be running yet, but there are predictions on who will be making their bid.

I'm curious to see who is the frontrunner on this site

I'm not a racist but just curious about the result 🧐

I’ll never understand this as it’s some fake shit. Either you like someone or you don’t, can’t play both sides. They’re not forced to talk to me or like me so why smile in my face and start conversations with me all while NOT liking me? I don’t get that. Don’t like me? Who gives a fuck just stay out my face and way it’s so simple.
