I was unaware that Roe v. Wade was about work visa issues.

I will say IL that I'm glad you see sinister here. I'm wondering what others make of this - but as I said, I'll skip as we all know my take. Rob

From the story you linked, just ~2 weeks ago, in Los Angeles, in California, a pro-choice state, you seem to theorize that U.S. Customs, serving under Biden's pleasure, is up to something "sinister" by asking these questions?

Note the other issues raised in the article about her presence here in the USA....

Note the other issues raised in the article about her presence here in the USA....Yes. That question was nothing but harassment with no excuse. The young woman involved really deserves an apology - prefterably from Biden and a refund of her airfare by the US AND new tickets at US expense with a trandit point somewhere other than this hot mess.

Should have been transit point above. Rob

Here's another crazy thing. I'm watching the news--a TN woman was refused her prescription of methotraxate for her arthritis pending being able to get verification from her doctor that it was for pain and not for an abortion. The woman is menopausal and has no uterus due to a hysterectomy. But the pharmacy would not give her her prescription and she had to spend an entire holiday weekend without her pain medication. Then she still had to wait for her doctor's verification.

So if anyone here is on methotrexate for arthritis, make sure your doctor writes the indication on the prescription. At this point, it probably doesn't even matter if you're male.

Oh come now catherine, a man can have a uterus. He is a birthing person.

please try to keep up!

:0!

But yeah, the state abortion laws will have to address many many things the dumbf.u.c.k. state legislators have little concept of.

I am laboriously going throughthe extremely long list of
republican candidates for U.S. Senate, hoping to find someone who has opined a moderate approach to abortion issues. No luck so far. Will do same for state candidates. May have to vote Democratic in upcoming elections. Ugh. Yuck. Blech. etc.

But if U.S customs did have such a policy to grill about pregnancy and abortion, I’m sure it would’ve been trumpeted to the rooftops by mainstream media.

If Joe Biden put this out, don’t you think that would be a little odd, Rob, coming from the Democratic Party?

It seems like a one time event by a customs officer who may genuinely have been curious about someone’s pregnancy status and in a caring way. Or in a curious but clueless way.

It is a unprofessional though, if it truly did happen as described in this newspaper article.
