A judge ordered Planned Parenthood to hand records of transgender care over to Andrew Bailey.
A St. Louis judge has ruled that Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is entitled to Planned Parenthood’s transgender care records, ordering the nonprofit to turn over some of its most sensitive files to the man who has built his unelected political career on restricting health care access for trans people.
In his Thursday decision, Circuit Judge Michael Stelzer wrote that Bailey can collect documents under Missouri’s consumer protection statute that aren’t protected under federal mandate, namely the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, better known as HIPAA.
“It is clear from the statute that the Defendant has the broad investigative powers when the consumer is in possible need of protection and there is no dispute in this matter,” wrote Stelzer. “Therefore, the Defendant is entitled to some of the requested documents within his [Civil Investigative Demand].”
Bailey, who last year attempted to implement a ban on gender-affirming care for people of all ages, was quick to celebrate the decision, calling it a “big day” for the state.
it is very simple it shows experience if you reply to enough people someone will always eventually start calling you names. its inevitable if you do it long enough you can not avoid this because people are people. and you saying you have never encountered this shows you have not used the internet well enough. so you bragging about this is very funny.
Plenty of people have called me names.
No one has called me a bigot.
Why you think I said I’ve never been called names I don’t know since that is not something I even implied.
I know you really want me to have been called a bigot, but I still haven’t. Maybe you can fix that and call me a bigot!
you are bigot you have always been a bigot now you have. now this whole argument is meaningless. what are you going to do now try to explain why you where called a bigot. it not that i want you too be called a bigot its about how you seem to miss how easy it is too be called a bigot so you bragging that it never happened too you just means you have not really talked to a lot of people who you disagree with.
You’re right, all this time on Lemmy plus the over a decade on Reddit shows that I have not really talked to a lot of people who I disagree with. You’ve figured it out.
It can’t just be that I don’t say bigoted things.
exactly its that you think reddit is serious business. of course you have been on reddit for a decade the place where serious debates happen. no wonder this is how you argue. like i told you before this is not something to brag about. i find this very funny.
I think Reddit is serious business? I was bragging about something?
Funny, I didn’t know I thought that.
Apparently you know what I think better than I do.
Is that the way I’m supposed to argue? By telling you what you think and believe?
dude you said you have been on reddit for a decade to brag about how long you did without being called a bigot. and you seriously used reddit to show how well you use the internet and to how many people you talked that disagree with you. when reddit is the biggest circle jerk on the internet where people think they have serious debates and this is exactly what you said.
I know you want me to have been bragging, but I still wasn’t bragging.
Also, I don’t know what you mean by “how well you used the internet.” Is there a way to use it well?
OK dude. using reddit means you are a very serious internet user. and definitely when you keep your conversations very clean.
