Today, in things aliens would be perplexed by if they invaded, Sen. Josh Hawley fought a five-minute battle over whether men can get pregnant. During a hearing on Capitol Hill, he had to repeatedly press a supposed "expert" witness on the subject, and I haven't seen filibustering like this since Democrats tried to stop the Civil Rights Act.
Apparently, it's just a complete mystery. Unsolvable by the best attempts of science.
Sen. Josh Hawley: "Can men get pregnant?"Dr. Nisha Verma: "I'm not really sure what the goal of the question is."
Hawley: "The goal is just to establish a biological reality...Can men get pregnant?"
HAWLEY: Since you bring it up, why don't we just start there? Dr. Verma, I wasn't sure I understood your answer to Sen. Moody a moment ago. Do you think men can get pregnant?
VERMA: I hesitated there because I wasn't sure where the conversation was going or what the goal was. I mean, I do take care of patients with many identities. I take care of many women, I take care of people with different identities, so that's where I paused. I wasn't sure where you were going with that.
HAWLEY: Well, the goal was just the truth. Can men get pregnant?
VERMA: Again, the reason I paused there is because I'm not really sure what the goal of the question...
HAWLEY: The goal is just to establish a biological reality. You just said a moment ago that science and evidence should control, not politics. So let's just test that proposition. Can men get pregnant?
VERMA: I take care of many people with many identities, but I take care of many women that can get pregnant. I do take care of people that don't identify as women.
HAWLEY: Can men get pregnant?
VERMA: Again, as I'm saying...
HAWLEY: Let me just remind you of what you testified to a moment ago. Science and evidence should control, not politics. So, can men get pregnant? You're a doctor i think.
VERMA: I totally agree that science and evidence should guide medicine...
HAWLEY: Do science and evidence tell us men can get pregnant? Biological men? Can they get pregnant?
VERMA: I also think yes/no questions like this are a political tool...
HAWLEY: No, yes/no questions are about the truth, doctor. Let's not make a mockery of this proceeding.
That's not even half of the exchange. It just kept going and going, with Dr. Nisha Verma eventually claiming Hawley's question was divisive. In a sense, she's right. Male and female are technical divisions based on biological science, along with the collective knowledge of all of human history. No amount of delusion or cowardice, with the latter clearly being the doctor's motivation to not answer the question, can change that.
Like Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, I'm not a biologist. But I'd suggest that if a doctor refuses to state plainly that men can't get pregnant, that person shouldn't hold a medical license. There was a time when such a statement wouldn't be controversial. It is dangerous for patients and damaging to the public trust for political actors to continue to make a mockery of science like this. You'd think those who are part of that institution would do more to protect it. Instead, those on the left seem content to burn everything to the ground in pursuit of utter nonsense driven by nothing more than deranged ideology.
Hawley would go on to completely school Verma if you watch the rest of the clip, but I'm left with a simple question: What happens when there is another pandemic or major medical event? No one is going to listen to these people when they can't even tell the truth about whether men can get pregnant or not. Why would anyone trust their expertise on anything else? That's why this is all so dangerous.

“that person shouldn’t hold a medical license”
Or for that matter, manage to pass a freshman biology course in college.
Or High School for that matter.
When did this madness infect us?
He should have stopped referring to her as “Doctor”.
Said something like:
If you don’t know the difference between men & women, I question your medical credentials.
It all started when Emperor Obeyme was selected as president.
Folks, this “expert” knows the answer to the question. She’s just doing the kabuki dance because she fears being ostracized and attacked by her colleagues and friends in ideology if she gives the answer that even children knows.
At the bottom of this madness is FEAR.
Maybe a bit earlier, but he sure as hell turbocharged it.
You are undoubtedly correct.
In Communist countries they forced you to support ridiculous falsehoods. By doing so they crush an individual’s sense of right and wrong. It truly is a soul crushing form of Government.
Dr. Verma, over your entire career as an OBGYN, how many babies have you delivered from male patients?
-PJ
Hilarious. Send it Scott Weiner
This is what they are loath to say...
A genetic female who identifies as male is considered by them to be a “male” who can menstruate and have a baby... this is why they want tampons in men’s rooms. They won’t admit the obvious since they do not wish to confirm the facts.
I don’t have any animosity against these people but obfuscating the facts make them look idiotic... why not just state the plain truth.
Is it true she cannot answer the question of the ability for men to get pregnant”

“I went into her office for an exam and she instantly realized my lady testicles were infected. I'm looking forward to my first pap smear!”

This so called expert doctor erases all doubt that Liberalism is truly a mental disorder and with that its most dominant symptom is lying about the scientific nature of the obvious. She shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near a patient or to hold a medical license.
so 27 years later we have gone from a two letter word to a three letter word…..
“It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘is’ is
This guy in the new Gowdy.
all mouth and no gun.
Then proceed to more-difficult questions - like, "If you transplant an ass's tail onto a human being, is that human being now an ass?" or "If a person comes to you and insists he is the Rock of Gibraltar, is he, in fact, the Rock of Gibraltar?"
Of course, the interrogator will still likely have to ward off non-responsive replies ("I don't see what this has to do with the issue at hand," etc.), but it might be useful to first lay some preparatory groundwork and accustom the witness to providing "yes/no" answers before proceeding with the "meatier" issues.
