Kate Cox, a mother of two, sought a court order to block Texas' abortion bans after she discovered that her developing fetus had trisomy 18, a fatal diagnosis.

Kate Cox, the Texas woman at the center of a high-profile abortion case, will attend the State of Union address in March as a guest of first lady Jill Biden, the White House said Wednesday.

President Joe Biden and the first lady called Cox on Sunday to hear about her experience and invited her to attend the address, press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said during a press briefing.

"They thanked her for her courage in sharing her story and speaking out about the impact of the extreme abortion ban in Texas," Jean-Pierre said. "The first lady invited Kate to join her as a guest at the State of the Union and Kate accepted, so those are ways that you're going to hear the president lift up those very personal stories."

Not a “pawn”; that implies she was unwilling or unaware, or just too stupid to understand.

Sycophant is the correct moniker, I believe.

Story does go on to say she “went out of state” but don’t admit it was to abort her child, and don’t state whether the trisomy 18 diagnosis was confirmed.

According to the NY Times in a study published in 2022, false positive for trisomy 18 is as high as 85%.

The real issue has nothing to do with availability of abortions. It is about forcing a state to accept and allow abortions.

The DemonKKKrats will haul out the abortion issue as the central weapon to demonize the Republican 2024 election races across the USA. What they are doing is tearing down the value of all human life for the sake of political power. They have as little regard for life as those Hamas terrorist throwing babies into hot ovens and raping and chopping the heads off young girls in the Gaza. When you consider that 626,000 (647,464, the population of Vermont) abortions were performed in 2021, there is a hell of a lot of gruesome killings in the “civil” USA.

Sure, there are instances that a unborn child can jeopardize the life of the mother. With advances in medical science that situation, already a rare event, can be minimized. In fact, abortion could act as a short-cut with no medical advancements necessary. All show a disregard for life and treat the pregnant mother as an inconvenience.

The GOP must get their heads together and come up with an argument addressing the abortion issue. A focus on the pregnant mother and what can be done for them should be emphasized.

I can imagine Brandon being juiced up so much that he will be treading the line of overdose. A indication will be his head shaking or his hands. This might be the time he goes pop(!) and sets up the Mooche to enter the race.

this woman and everyone agreeing with her are forgetting or ignoring the fact that every person born is dying. Som love hours some live over 100 years but every breath is a gift, every. moment is a gift and part of God’s plan. Tryin got supersede His plans likely isn’t making God happy and He will address it with each and every one of them at some point.

Of course that is their goal, but they use the argument that they can’t travel so I’m just pointing out the BS that argument is.

Slowly but surely they are ratcheting up the abortion issue. It would not surprise if in the least of there was some abortion black swan event on, say, sometime late summer.

Abortion issue last? Hmmm. The enemy is not stupid and they are playing abortion front and center. They must have data that says otherwise.

Love to see Johnson sitting behind him tearing up his speech page by page. He won’t do it though. Would love more to see not a single Republican show up.

It's a loser. Every state will vote to legalize abortion if you put it on the referendum.

There are other issues we have to focus on. Or we'll lose this country and it'll become an Orwellian nightmare.

If they put abortion on a state vote, it will draw every pro-abortion voter out of the woodwork; who will vote straight ticket, Democrat.

I can’t even imagine Biden doing a state of the union address this year or what it might look like. Can they pump him up with enough drugs for him to last 45 minutes to an hour?
