MSNBC's Joy Reid compares Texas Republicans to the Taliban
Fox News
MSNBC host Joy Reid referred to recent Texas Republican pro-life bills as "Talibanism."
"This is a law designed not to ‘protect life’ (a farce, given that protecting innocent life has taken a back seat when covid-19 restrictions were at issue), but rather to create fear and uncertainty for women and health-care providers," Rubin wrote. "Will miscarriages lead to a lawsuit from a nosy office worker seeking to cash in on the reward? Will abortion bounties become a weapon in divorce and custody cases? No one knows — and that is the point. The law seeks not to protect the fetus in any systematic way but rather to intimidate women, making them into cash cows for spiteful anti-choice busybodies." Reid retweeted Rubin’s post on Twitter along with her own thoughts on the bill. "So now Texas Republicans are putting bounties on pregnant women. I almost hate to ask what this benighted party will think of next," she said. "This is Talibanism. Are Texas conservatives going to be spying on women of childbearing age and turning them in for the bounties?"
