Judge blocks Texas Right to Life’s enforcement of heartbeat law, GoDaddy shuts down website HotAir

A Texas state judge blocked Texas Right to Life and its associates from suing abortion providers and workers at Planned Parenthood clinics Friday. A temporary restraining order was issued and is set to expire in two weeks.

The Texas heartbeat law was signed by Governor Abbott in May and went into effect on September 1. The Supreme Court refused to stop the bill from going into effect. Pro-abortion supporters vowed to oppose the law and the media has been happy to do their bidding since Wednesday. Judge Maya Guerra Gamble of Texas 459th District Court, a Democrat who was elected in 2018 and assumed office in January 2019, sided with Planned Parenthood. The bill outlaws abortion after six weeks when a fetal heartbeat is detected, and it allows private individuals to sue a person for helping in any way with the abortion including doctors, staff at clinics, and anyone who pays for abortion or provides transportation to the clinic. In other words, instead of lawsuits against the state or public officials, individuals are held accountable. This is what makes the Texas bill unique.

Presumably this judge is one of Baal’s little demon assistants. Metaphorically speaking.
