Texas Raids Planned Parenthood Facilities
Texas authorities raided several Planned Parenthood facilities Thursday.
Click here for reuse options!The raids were carried out at Planned Parenthood health centers in Houston, Dallas and San Antonio by representatives from the Texas Office of the Inspector General.
The Inspector General’s office declined to comment. Its agents were seen on local news reports entering a Planned Parenthood facility in San Antonio.
Texas, the most populous Republican-controlled U.S. state, said it would launch a probe of Planned Parenthood after the release of videos in July by anti-abortion activist group Center for Medical Progress in which a Planned Parenthood official is seen talking about transactions involving fetal tissue.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott said this week “the gruesome harvesting of baby body parts by Planned Parenthood will not be allowed,” but so far the state has released no evidence of illegal activity by the group.
Planned Parenthood, which has denied any wrongdoing, accused Abbott of grandstanding in launching the raids.
Texas officials are “looking for an excuse to take health care away from thousands of women and men who rely on Planned Parenthood for preventive care,” the group said in a statement.

It took 3 months before they could react , but they had to secure the state from Jade Helm infiltrators

The republicans in Texas are corrupt and out of control.

I think the only thing that will stop their blatant criminal activity and law breaking will be to vote them out of office. Vote Texans, vote. Time to stop the GOP lawlessness in Texas.

Let’s face it, the state of Texas does not want it’s poor to have health care. Why? Who knows? Try getting an intelligent answer from a Texas Republican. Hell, they’re probably still reeling from Jade Helm, Obama’s birth certificate and the antichrist. The Benghazi hearings pushed them over the edge so they had to react to one fantasy or another.

it says a hellava lot doesn’t it? if women don’t start using their damn brains in this state then i don’t know what.
Warman1138 October 22nd, 2015 at 22:28
It’s up to everyone there, not just the women to vote the morons out and get some brains in the government.
whatthe46 October 22nd, 2015 at 22:35
oh sweetie i completely agree. i’m really talking about the idiot repub women. those that also need the PP. they need to stop voting against their own best interest. and it goes further than that of course, but the stupid is strong with far too many.

Gerrymandering helps enabling the incompetent.

Exactly, do not understand why Republican women continue to put up with this bullsh*t but i guess loyalty is more important than what is good for them!

Texas Dems should be trying to uncover the plan to restrict access to state-approved ID’s before the 2016 election, like Alabama. You KNOW Dan Patrick, Greg Abbot and inmate Paxton are cooking up such a plan.

A perfect example of why religion has no place in politics I lived in Texas for a year and hated it.

All based on hearsay and the demonstrably false claims of talibagger special interest groups. As usual, they’ll lie to our faces with a holier-than-thou smile while claiming that defunding PP will increase access to health care for poor women. Everything is opposite-world for them.

Texas would be pretty nice without the bigots, fundies, talibaggers, ammosexuals, and sovereign citizens. About a million of us would be much happier and much safer.
