Texas turned CPS into horror show and that wasn't an accident. They've been putting foster children in unlicensed facilities for years, including facilities out of state, on the other side of the US.
There are about 9,000 children in long-term custody of the state, and an average of 80 children per month were staying in unlicensed and unsafe housing last year. This includes poorly supervised motels rife with sex trafficking, leaving already vulnerable children exposed to abuse. In the past three years, there have been 2,100 serious incidents involving these children without placement, including death, abuse and neglect.

Nope this is totally better than abortion guys, come on! Abortion is literally killing a child! What kind of monster would do that, when we could [checks notes] abandon the child in an abusive, underfunded system and slowly watch it die instead?
And this is why Project 2025 also says that all babies have the right to be raised by their biological parents-- they also want to get rid of adoption and the foster system! Isn't that lovely?
Forced parentage? Amazing! Truly nothing is better than a child being raised by their real parents, even if love/basic needs met aren’t in the equation! It’s Gods Will™!
This is exactly why they want to stop abortion- more kids to molest - abuse - enslave - indoctrinate. Look at how many Republicunts are found to be pedohiles - they are absolutely salivating at the opportunity to get their hands on as many children as possible.
Can’t wait to see what happens when they become adults out in the world. The crime rates are going to skyrocket in the next 12-18 - just watch. “CcHrIsTiAn fAmILy VaLueS” my ass - fuck these people forever.
It's not stupid, it's awful. And it's awful because it's true.
Look. They're sabotaging the care system at the same time that they're putting way more lives into their hands. What sort of behavior motivates that? Anti-social behavior. Psychopathic behavior.
If you honestly believe that any significant amount of Republicans want to stop abortion because they want to molest kids then you have spent far too much time on the Internet.
They just want more babies. Once babies get older, they start to lose their appeal and start having opinions and preferences and flaws. They start acting like people instead of voiceless props. So the only solution to this is to toss aside these flawed, uncooperative people and bring in more babies.
They're situationally voiceless when an adult can talk over the baby about what they want and what their opinion is. For example, "Kids don't want free lunches because they'll feel too ashamed to accept them."
So Texas govt officials are straight up sex and human trafficking kids legally. No wonder the republicans in Texas are always so concerned about what sex a child is. They want to know who they’ll traffick out to their rich buddies. Epstein was small time compared to them
Give it a rest. The comment was facetious and you know it. The pos Texas republicans are responsible for what’s happening to those kids. They might as well be doing it themselves.
And do not act like the republicans don’t constantly bring up kids genitals bc that’s all they do, along w trying to lower the age a little girl can be forced to marry an adult man, now that they’re forcing raped ones to give birth. You see how it all connects Cletus
Oh, and, in 2023, Texas also passed some measures to make it easier for parents whose children were removed by CPS to get those children back. They tucked that in with 'foster kids will be provided with a duffle bag for their belongings instead of garbage bags when changing homes.'
I remember when they started giving us duffle bags! The construction size trash bags were too expensive to keep giving out and we were expected to keep up with that duffle bag until we left care. I aged out in 2019.
Texas Tribune has covered it extensively. There's a twelve year old lawsuit about unsafe conditions in Texas foster care. The judge started cracking down this year... and Texas is trying to remove some of the judge's ability to impose punishment.
Paxton should honestly be in jail for corruption. When I heard the dude got 100 hours of community service... man... there is no justice in this world.
And you know all those politicians who are behind this crap are absolutely thrilled at everything we’re reading here. We read it and feel concern, empathy, sorrow. The Reich wing assholes read about all these dire outcomes and are filled with glee at causing all this misery.
Texas Health & Safety Code prohibits abortions outright, except in certain circumstances. Section 170A. 002 prohibits a person from performing, inducing, or attempting an abortion. There is an exception for situations in which the life or health of the pregnant patient is at risk
Because it’s totally legal to get an abortion in Texas within 6-7 weeks after conception. A whole month after most people have figured out they are pregnant.
So you got time to decide if you wanna terminate a pregnancy.
Still valid from what I can see. Though I’ve been on vacation since the 22nd. Unless something happened during that time then that’s what I know to be the law in Texas.
Thanks lol. For the record even as a conservative I thought the roe v Wade reversal was a bad move. I have little skin in the game. We had a kid, my wife and I. But we’ve also taken plan B when we weren’t ready.
I do think there is plenty of room for open discussion. Abortions into the 15-20 weeks range becomes a very unsavory practice when you research exactly what’s happening.
Also I do think the states having the choice to chose is inherently a good move for the federal government because they’ve long over reached in many many avenues, though I wouldn’t of picked this particular one to be the flag ship.
15-20 should only be done if there is absolute danger to the Mother or Child will be horrible deformed ect.
I think it should be week 12 or 13 , any higer and a commison or case should be discused, and then its only if there is somthing special about the case .
12-13 is when most medical sience consider it a real life and human
Ea Mother has terminal cancer , og has to start meds to not die, going to prison ect ect somthing like that .
I dont agree with States running it tho , as there are way way to many crazy zelots out there.
There is a difference beetween banning and allowing
One affects everyone the other only affects those that want to.
Banning somthing should always be way way harder than allowing
In 2022, a Texas CPS worker got fired because a 14 year old girl they had put up in a hotel asked for food and the CPS worker told her to go turn tricks and buy her own food.
