Eleven judges on the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that an Ohio law prohibiting state health department funding from going to any provider who offers “non-therapeutic abortions” does not violate the Constitution, “because the affiliates do not have a due process right to perform abortions.”
The court ruled 11-6 that the ban does not pose an undue burden on a woman’s right to an abortion. Women have a right to an abortion, but Planned Parenthood affiliates do not have a constitutional right to perform abortions, the court said.
“Private organizations do not have a constitutional right to obtain governmental funding to support their activities,” Judge Jeffrey Sutton wrote for the majority. “The State also may choose not to subsidize constitutionally protected activities. Just as it has no obligation to provide a platform for an individual’s free speech … it has no obligation to pay for a woman’s abortion.”
First, this isn't unlike some of the gun laws passed during the Clinton administration. While you cannot take away someone's right to own a gun, there is no constitutional right for a gun manufacturer to manufacture and sell guns. So the laws went after the gun manufacturers, not gun owners.
But this is still a bit different, because it's not about whether or not Planned Parenthood is allowed to do abortions. They are still allowed to perform the service. This decision doesn't change that, nor did the new law attempt to prevent it. It's about whether or not PP has a constitutional "right" to receive funding from the government.
In a completely objective, unemotional, non-political, logical standpoint, this would have been a 17-0 decision, rather than an 11-6 decision. The State should have full control over what sort of subsidies they provide for various industries. Nobody should be able to tell the State what they "have to" provide funding for. If something simply being "legal" was reason enough to demand public funding, then what industry and what business would not have the same claim?
Planned Parenthood will simply need to step up their fundraising game here. I have little doubt that they can play on the emotions of people to secure the additional funding from the private sector (at least for a while). If not, then they have a choice to make. Either they can be the Planned Parenthood that they claim to be (abortion being a sliver of what they do) and cut out that "sliver" and regarner the funding, or they can fold up shop as a matter of principal.

i've always wondered how they've managed to continue to get away with what is on its face a massive money laundering scheme in cahoots with the DNC.
they receive around a half billion $$$ in taxpayer money and they turn right around and ship a significant amount of that to democrats. setting aside the obvious conflict and violation of the hyde amendment, i'm puzzled as to why this shit continues.

George Conway, an attorney and the husband of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, is calling for a “serious inquiry” into President Donald Trump’s “condition of mind.”
Conway, a persistent Trump critic despite his wife’s position in the administration, slammed the president’s “brazen, pathological mendacity” for lying over even mundane matters.
“Even his donors and supporters wonder, what is wrong with him?” Conway wrote. “Why would he feel compelled to tell such an absurd lie?”
Conway’s first tweet linked to a clip in which Trump suggested that District Judge Amy Berman Jackson found “no collusion” in sentencing former campaign manager Paul Manafort on Wednesday.
“I can only tell you one thing: Again that was proven today, no collusion,” Trump declared, repeating “no collusion” multiple times.
However, the judge in the District of Columbia said no such thing.
“The ‘no collusion’ mantra is simply a non sequitur,” she said, adding that “the investigation is still ongoing.”
You repeat something enough times....assholes like ass breath and lil scotty will believe anything!!!!!

Obama raided Medicaid for 800 Billion.
The connected crises we face in our government, economy and climate are the greatest in living memory. But I’m running for president because this moment offers an historic opportunity to join with millions of our fellow Americans at a time like no other.
No one candidate for president, no matter how talented or experienced, can meet these challenges on their own. It’s going to take our entire country and building a movement that includes all of us. If you’re ready to be a part of this effort, chip in today to help us kick off our campaign the right way.
2,500,000 more Americans have health care insurance. Because John McCain Vietnam war hero, said no to the President.
Who said that non-sense.
Obama raided Medicaid for 800 Billion.
FUNNY...goat fucker I googled that statement and came back as blank as your brain....how can that be??????
Seems you may are confused that trump wants to do it....
Donald Trump budget: $800 billion in Medicaid cuts - CNNPolitics
I agree with Nate Silver
Here’s what I really think. I think O’Rourke has the potential to have a very strong launch, as measured by the various metrics (polling gains, fundraising, impressive staff hires, endorsements, media attention) that we’d usually measure it by. O’Rourke was a pretty big candilebrity in 2018, and I think it really does help to have a differentiated brand in a divided field. Furthermore, although the “lanes” thing is way overdone, there are still quite a few moderate Democrats (both voters and “party elites”) who might be looking for a place to hitch their wagon. O’Rourke doesn’t have any endorsements yet,4 but he’s been getting plenty of encouragement from influential Democrats to run, especially from former Obama staffers.5 Conditional on that strong launch, I think he belongs in the top tier.
He also may have missed his moment, or he may not look the same to voters now that the sugar high of almost beating Cruz has worn off. The road trip and dentist stuff may not have mattered to voters, but it didn’t necessarily reflect great self-awareness or judgment. And the dynamics of a white man running in a field full of women and people of color — and potentially getting the nomination despite having considerably less experience than several of them — are not great in the context of contemporary Democratic politics. So for the time being, I put Beto in Tier 1.5, behind the Harris/Biden/Bernie group but ahead of the rest of the Democrats.
I still believe that Harris is the most likely candidate to defeat Trump.
Not in a landslide!
Attention kput'z
Obamacare doesn’t literally "rob" Medicare. But the Affordable Care Act does include provisions that reduce future increases in Medicare spending. In other words, the law slows down the rising costs of Medicare.
It reduces Medicare costs.
Liberal media are having beto-gasms all day. Pathetic. We already had eight years of a president with no resume. We don't need that disaster again.
Lol, omg you actually believe that.
So since the passage of Obimbocare Medicare and Medicaid total cost per year have gone down?
Show us .
We already had eight years of a president with no resume
I thought trump has been in office for 2 years!!! It sure feels like 8

Failed Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee said Obama raided Medicaid for 800 Billion.
It's not true.
Roger, here ya go.
"Medicare spending grew 4.2% to $705.9 billion in 2017 and Medicaid spending grew 2.9% to $581.9 billion in 2017"
Presidential authority is the question of the day.
Should we allow the President to use the authority of the President to fulfill his campaign promises? With a fake crisis?
Trumpism demands intellectual dishonesty and cognitive dissonance.
12 Republicans voted with all Senate Democrats to pass the resolution. The Democratic-controlled House approved it last month, 245-182, with just 13 House Republicans breaking with the White House.
North Carolina GOP Sen. Thom Tillis penned an opinion piece in the Washington Post on Feb. 25 saying he would vote for the resolution blocking the president's actions to go around Congress to build a border wall, but reversed himself and opposed it on Thursday.
The details matter. The baby boomers are causing the increase, not the ACA.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin suggested Thursday he will protect President Donald Trump’s privacy if he receives a request from House Democrats for Trump’s tax returns.
At a House Ways and Means Committee hearing, Mnuchin was asked whether he would meet a request for Trump’s past tax returns. Chairman Rep. Richard Neal, D-Mass., is expected to formally ask for those as Democrats seek to shed light on Trump’s financial dealings and potential conflicts of interest.
“We will examine the request and we will follow the law ... and we will protect the president as we would protect any taxpayer” regarding their right to privacy,

Declaring a national emergency to access different funds sets a dangerous, new precedent,” Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) said in a floor speech. “No president has ever used what’s called the National Emergencies Act in this way. As a result, it opens the door for future presidents to implement just about any policy they want and to take funding from other areas Congress has already decided on without Congress’ approval.”
In addition to Lee and Portman, the Republicans voting for the resolution were: Lamar Alexander (Tenn.), Roy Blunt (Mo.), Susan Collins (Maine), Jerry Moran (Kan.), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), Mitt Romney (Utah), Marco Rubio (Fla.), Patrick J. Toomey (Pa.), Roger Wicker (Miss.) and Rand Paul (Ky.).

Trump wants the Bible classes in public schools.
Scott, don't duck and cover. This is exactly what we have to discuss.
If you want Bible classes you should go to a Christian School or teach ALL religions. What about Hinduism, New Age Spirituality, Buddhism, Islam, Judaism? Not everyone is Christian. That is why there is a separation of church and state... I don't want your religion pushed down my kids throat, I have no problem with them learning them all and making an informed decision on their own in what they believe.

New Zealand Police Commissioner Mike Bush says the death toll has increased to 49 in shootings at two mosques.
Bush told a news conference that a man has been charged with murder and will appear in court tomorrow. He would not say whether the same shooter was responsible for both attacks.
A man who earlier claimed responsibility said he was a 28-year-old Australian and described anti-immigrant motives in a manifesto.

Good morning Denise
"100000 have been killed by cars"
So horribly wrong .
In 2018, an estimated 40,000 people lost their lives to car crashes – a 1% decline from 2017 (40,231 deaths) and 2016 (40,327 deaths). About 4.5 million people were seriously injured in crashes last year – also a 1% decrease over 2017"
So very horribly wrong. Poor old and stupid Denise .
"Last month, the CDC reported that 39,773 people in the United States died from gunshot wounds in 2017, the most single-year gun deaths in half a century. The increase was driven by suicides. GVA recorded 28,159 firearminjuries in 2018, a 10 percent decrease over 2017.Jan 7, 2019

You mean other than the Privacy Act of 1974?
facts are stubborn things...
seriously, i'm trying to understand the left's argument here about trump's tax returns.
we know he's rich. how rich exactly? a good and meaningless question.
are there errors on the returns? doubtful. when your finances are as vast and as complex as trump's, you have a legion of accountants and tax lawyers to make sure you're in compliance.
is the argument that trump used tax law to minimize his tax exposure? ok, so you've caught him doing something legal, and something i just did to minimize my tax m y own liability.
so i guess that leaves us with the argument that the left feels entitled to trump's tax returns to use as a political cudgel. well... if that's your angle come right out and say it.
what i find ironic is how the left drives themselves batshit fucking cray cray over trump's tax returns, yet they remain curiously silent when a scumbag like harry reid can arrive in DC with barely a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of, and leave DC and his penthouse residence at the ritz fucking carlton.
