    Well… there is a federal path to handling state level health care crises.

    Two magical ingredients.

    First is to actually declare a state of emergency in the Y’all Qaeda infested regions of the US on the basis of denied healthcare leading to the current and worsening humanitarian crisis in those areas; and in doing so, enabling the VA to provide abortion services to non-veterans under section §1784 of title 38, United States Code.

    Second is federal enclave, which pretty much states that on federal facilities, state law can eat a bag of dicks.

    This dystopian GOP shit is maddening. We need to stop trying to argue with it, and start finding ways to just work around it. Fuck em.
