Texas Hold'em: Birthing People Edition

On my drive to work I talked about the recent developments in the Texas Heartbeat Law status as Texas and federal justices battle over whether abortion is a "constitutional right."

At the end I look at a strange article claiming that Texas abortion controversy overlooks and especially hurts "non-cisgendered" "birthing people."
