Kat Cammack recounts emergency room ordeal but claims ‘fearmongering’ by Democrats and pro-choice activists sowing confusion among medical professionals
Florida Republican Rep. Kat Cammack has revealed that she almost died last year as a result of her state’s six-week abortion ban, which left hospital staff reluctant to treat her ectopic pregnancy for fear of criminal prosecution.
Cammack was only five weeks pregnant at the time, the embryo had no heartbeat and her own safety was in jeopardy, but nevertheless the congresswoman found herself forced to pull up the letter of the law on her phone to argue the case and even put in a call to Governor Ron DeSantis, without being able to reach him, before staff relented and came to her aid.
But surprisingly, given her ordeal, the representative does not feel the law itself is at fault and instead blames Democrats for scaring medical professionals into confusion over their responsibilities.
Baseball, huh?
That’s such a shame, why would she have vote to hurt herself? Is she stupid?
“There will be some comments like, ‘Well, thank God we have abortion services,’ even though what I went through wasn’t an abortion,” she said.
Yes. Yes she is.
Thanks, Obama
Why did Ronald Regean do this?
That’s why they can only win. It’s s closed system and the media refuses to call bullshit.
That tracks.
Donald is right. Americans are fat and disgusting.
Definitely not a cult.
Are we sure it was an ectopic pregnancy, and not gallstones caused by her diet?
“There will be some comments like, ‘Well, thank God we have abortion services,’ even though what I went through wasn’t an abortion,” she said.
Dunno what the fuck else you wanna call it, but hey, gotta do those mental gymnastics.

Authoritarians compartmentalize everything. The conclusions are indisputable and so no two justifications must ever be mentally compared to one another. They don’t even realize they’re doing it, and will assume it is being done to them.
Which is why my elementary and middle school teachers hated me. Take a fiercely logical kid who has no qualms about pointing out contradictions, put them up against an authoritarian (who, let’s be honest, probably works with kids because they’re guaranteed to have power over them), and you’re gonna end up with an angry adult and a kid who’s regularly put in detention.
I have zero regrets. Authoritarians can get fucked. The only good thing I can surely say they’d ever done, was that they managed to radicalize me before puberty.
“I became unpregnant to save my life!”
What a cunt, shame she pulled through.
If a loving god ever existed, he would not allow vile creatures such as this to be in any position of power. Yet, every position of power is filled with exactly this kind of human excrement. Only one thing will get rid of them.
I can imagine a loving God allowing these vile creatures to exist, but I can’t believe he would allow them to speak for him.
anyone who considers “democrats” “the left” needs to be fired and not allowed to run and be in office ever again.
Anyone not in the cult is “the left” or some other label that no longer means anything. It’s intentional to keep shifting public perception of anything that isn’t fascist is actually unamerican. No one wants to be an outsider, Timmy. You will enjoy your Medicaid cuts because if you don’t you’re a communist socialist woke CRT DEI feminist politically correct SJW who believes in intersectionality.
As a foreigner, it’s lowkey fucking hilarious to see Americans call everything left-of-center “Leftist/socialist/radical”, when even the Democrat party would typically be classed as slightly right of center in many democratic nations. Their attacks on countries like Sweden, Germany, Canada, etc. for enacting basic social programs to stem the damage from addictions and homelessness for example are pretty telling, as though it would be beneficial to society overall to leave people to their fates with no assistance, as though they were fish that jumped out of water onto the beach - as though they should just be left out in the sun to die, and rot in the open air while everyone passes by unconcerned.
It seems like most Americans barely leave their own state, let alone a country that isn’t Mexico or Canada. Having spent a fair time in most European countries, political discussions with locals typically involve how skewed the US perspective is on liberal/conservative views. Like calling Biden or Harris radical leftists. JFC. It’s embarrassing that people actually believe that. The brainwashing here is crazy.
Most americans barely have 5$ in their bank account at the end of the month, Of course they dont leave their own state, most cant even leave their home.
I think part of the problem is the lack of money. Specifically, if you don’t have enough money, exploring the world and seeing different ways of life isn’t an option.
Poverty is corrosive to personhood and society, since it inherently kills possibilities - education, meeting people, contributing to community, and more.
That is very true. My comment certainly wasn’t a knock against anyone who can’t travel. The value proposition for travel to that extent is a hard sell to someone living paycheck to paycheck. The first time my wife and I went to Europe was largely on credit cards (we were young and paycheck to paycheck as well). We had to give up many comforts over the following years to pay it off.
The relative geographic isolation here is a major hurdle, and while the internet should be a great tool to discover what potential we have (like not going bankrupt after falling ill), it’s just as useful for big money to control the narrative.
These maga cultists think DICK CHENEY of all people is a commie librul. Forget left of center.
love that pic. gonna steal it because I’m a lefty commie anarchist.
Feel free to yoink, that’s how I got it.
It serves it’s purpose: Propaganda
I suspect the story would be quite different if she weren’t a white woman working for the state.
What story?
Her sob story.
The Democrats are just FEARMONGERS! ANYONE can call up Ron DeathSentence to Show the Staff they WONT go to Jail if they MURDER THIS BABY for Me!
And this is precisely why the right can get away with doing whatever they want. Their cult will NEVER blame them for anything.
Ah, another case of mental illness.
we wrote these laws to be vague so that white people like me could get treatment!
