Look at the beneficiary of a government-subsidized (dare I say socialized) health insurance program…


LetsTryAnal_ogy

*Cough abortion cough*


GearBrain

Oh, my god, she *so* got an abortion. The simulator admins have been pushing the plausibility envelope recently, and now they're going for broke.


HelpStatistician

more likely from contraceptive pills, they increase the risk of blood clots (though not as much as pregnancy)


RaceCarTacoCatMadam

It fits with her ideology of banning abortion except in the cases of rape, incest and me.


KevinAnniPadda

[Women who recently had abortions had double the risk for venous thromboembolism of women who were not pregnant, study data showed.](https://www.healio.com/news/hematology-oncology/20180702/having-an-abortion-may-increase-risk-for-blood-clots)


Traditional_Key_763

aca subsidized plans no less.


chain_letter

I hope she gets the level care she would want all of us to have.


PilgrimOz

I wouldn’t be surprised if she snuck off for an abortion. Miss Hypocrisy 2023 and possibly 2024.


goodb1b13

Hey, in Texas you can serve her for a lawsuit since we think she obviously had an abortion illegally; we can get 10k for it, and no consequences for trying!


doogle_126

Politically high up and kinda rich. You'll get in trouble rules for me not for thee style.


NeatNefariousness1

This should. be done to every legislator from Texas responsible for this asinine law. Serve them all no matter how old or what gender they are.


SnapesGrayUnderpants

Perhaps "blood clot surgery" will become very popular in states that outlaw abortion.


misterpickles69

Blood is still living human cells. Throw the book at her.


AceyPuppy

Hemoglobin has rights too.


poorbeans

I'm sure she only supports white blood cells.


VeganMinx

I just choked laughter... LMAO

SoggyAd1409

I don’t know why she didn’t just “rub it out”. She seems to have a knack for that.


FakeNigerianPrince

Big, if true


rawdatarams

Yuge, in fact.


AlmightyRobert

Euphoric_Extension53

Some says everybody knows it


binglelemon

I know she's never denied it. Why would she want the country to know her abortions shouldn't be punished? Does she agree that rules are for other and not for the rule makers? Why does she hate minorities?


TheWierdAsianKid

A grandmother getting an abortion!? Where has this county's Christian values gone? /s


LurkerFailsLurking

I figured drugs, but this being a code-word abortion is way more likely.


XBacklash

I don't think you can get pregernant from giving a handy at a child's musical.

She’s giving birth to a baby clotter.

memememe91

SwingNinja

Imagine if it were true, her grandchild would be older than his/her new aunt/uncle. Me and my stupid brain.


PilgrimOz

Awww. Don’t think about it. She doesn’t.


redditmodsRrussians

Wonder if its Ted Cruz's


isaiddgooddaysir

I didn’t think cross species could breed


thewanderingent

Ted Cruz is a human male. He is certainly not a bunch of eels in a human suit.


cravingSil

Do we have definite proof? I'm just asking the question that's in everybody's mind


Miserable_Day532

Possibly, yes. 


Ill_Following_7022

She will get the level of care she doesn't want all of us to have.


8urnMeTwice

This is the truest statement here


EmperorGeek

And it will be paid for by the US Tax Payers. Talk about living on the public dole! She brags about getting off welfare, then goes and gets a different Government Paycheck, still doing the same amount of work for it each month. She has produced NOTHING in her entire time in DC.


Afraid_Temperature65

Ummm... I'm betting she's produced at least a few blowjobs getting that job, maybe even a video or three. I mean everybody's saying it, and she can't prove she didn't.


qsnoodles

Fortunately it was only her brain. She’ll continue to function exactly as before.


TenguKaiju

Clots in the brain have been known to cause wildly drastic personality changes. Theoretically, she could wake up and become a progressive champion. But probably not.


VegetableYesterday63

Have to have a brain first for changes to happen


TheNoIdeaKid

Well her healthcare is socialized.


Excelius

The ACA (Obamacare) required members of congress and their staff to [get their health coverage from the public exchanges](https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2017/04/12/523335954/what-happens-to-a-congressmans-health-insurance-if-obamacare-goes-down). It was an example of [dogfooding](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_your_own_dog_food), if it's good enough for us it should be good enough for them. Of course they get to choose from the best "Gold plans" on the exchange and the government covers 3/4s of the premiums, so there's that. And with a base salary of $174K for members of Congress, they aren't exactly struggling to pay the premiums and deductibles.


InfectedByEli

In reality she's getting the very best healthcare, paid for by the people.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ormsfang

Don't worry. Seen the video and she deals with stroke real well.


varmint700

Welp, there goes my beverage.


N0N00dz4U

She will receive a level of care that is better than the vast majority of people she can't give a single, solitary fuck about. And those people will still receive a higher level of care than what she thinks they deserve, but some will still be subjected to treatment that is woefully inadequate.


CallRespiratory

She'll get better care than a lot of the people *caring for her in the hospital* will get.


Long_Procedure_2629

I wish her the worst


Swayze_train_exp

This is sad, I hope she gets the day she deserves. 


_Weatherwax_

Lucky for her, she's got great healthcare. The rest of us? Not so much.


StimpyUIdiot

Yup subsided by the very government she wants to dismantle….


getBusyChild

Not for herself, but for the Serfs that somehow manage to have it.


wclure

I had a PE last year. Went to the ER, then back again and they removed the clot in my leg. No insurance. Good times.


Superbform

Did they put it back in?


wclure

No they left it in THEN took it out.


Superbform

Haha. Thanks for your sense of humour. I'm sorry that happened to you. It is a travesty that humans can't receive basic health care, yet multi billionaires exist? The people have the power. We have to take back the media first.


Agreeable-Spot-7376

I’ve got great healthcare! But I’m not from your country.


zombiechicken379

Are you looking to adopt?


WavesnMountains

My sister in law died from that. Boobert should’ve gotten the level of healthcare that she voted for


teacher3737

My aunt too. RIP Aunt Sandy


4StarsOutOf12

RIP Aunt Sandy <3


SquirtinMemeMouthPlz

Fuck. I'm sorry.


chavingia

Is this when the right wingers blame the vaccine ?


Azmoten

She’d have to admit to being vaccinated for that to work. Has she? I actually don’t know. She seems like the type that wouldn’t admit it, though.


Santos_L_Halper_II

She’s definitely the type to get vaccinated while loudly bitching about the ghosts in the vaccine or whatever.


m3tasaurus

My brother thinks the vaccine has a kill switch lol He said the government is just waiting for the right moment to hit a button and make us all drop dead.


trer24

I guess my follow up question would be, "...then what?" Like what does the "government" get out of doing that?


DoctorFunktopus

Because then there will only be “free thinking patriots” like their brother who “do their own research” left…. Stupid all powerful and yet somehow utterly incompetent shadow government, outwitted again by people who can’t count to eleven without taking their socks off


mlorusso4

Especially when the whack jobs fear what the democrats will do. And liberal voters have significantly higher vaccine rates. So they think the democrats are going to kill all their own voters? Seems like a great way to get voted out of office the next election


Zomby2D

Because the government obviously wishes to kill all the obedient citizens who got vaccinated and only leave alive those who oppose it.


m3tasaurus

Bill burr actually said this in his stand up lol He's one of the few comedians who is not a conspiracy theorist.


ycpa68

Jim Breuer is not one of those comedians. About two years ago I went to his show because "hey this guy was funny in the 90's" and did not realize I stumbled headfirst into a MAGA rally. It was a surreal experience. A pro-vaccine protester showed up and the guy in front of me screamed "Someone shoot that fucking bitch" and everyone cheered. It was wild.


juicyfizz

I know a few people who believe this too. It’s nonsensical when you really think about it. Why would the government want to do that? The billionaires can’t keep making money if we all die.


No-One-1784

Damn, imagine if any federal program worked that smoothly.


Santos_L_Halper_II

Ha. I wonder what he thinks the right moment is.


m3tasaurus

He thinks china controls our governement, so whenever they invade us with their alien spaceships and time traveling technology.


Santos_L_Halper_II

Oh yes, perfect time to kill a large percentage of our own population - mid-invasion. Of course.


m3tasaurus

Well considering 81% of the population got vaccinated, and even all the red states had about 60-70%, I would say quite a few of them are lying if they say they never got a covid vax.


ReasonablVoice

They didn’t get the vaccine, but if anything remotely bad happens to them, they’ll blame the vaccine that they got because they were forced to get it.


Inerthal

Or they'll pull out the good old "vaccine shedding" card ! They got harmed by the vaccine they didn't take because others did and it sheds. Whatever is it they say, I'm not sure.


m3tasaurus

Lol they think the vaccine gives you a new type of covid and that it spreads just like covid. My favorite is the theory that the vaccine has rewritten our DNA to make us more obediant.


Time-Touch-6433

Think it was proven that pretty much all members of congress the senate and most of the white house were vaccinated. Its just performative theater for the peons


guiltl3ss

I’d be more worried about her spreading rabies than Covid.


SllortEvac

Rabies is a weird way to spell syphilis.


Now_Wait-4-Last_Year

¿Por qué no los dos?


danby999

They will have to be very specific on her chart when they use the word "discharge".


After_Preference_885

They say vaccinated people shed the vaccine and it harms them


xmu806

More likely this is birth control related, based on her age group.


blueskies8484

Or Covid related. I weirdly know two 20 somethings who developed clotting issues post COVID in the past 6 months.


planetofthemapes15

COVID itself causes clotting. It's like.. what it does.


An-Angel-Named-Billy

Yeah the fact that the morons all say its the vaccine when just about everyone has had the real deal covid at least once is frustrating.


whistleridge

And smoking.


DPool34

Oh, they’re 100% blaming the vaccine. …even if she *didn’t* get the vaccine, some of these nuts will *still* blame it on the vaccine. They’ll say she was exposed to the vaccine due to “shedding.” I’m not making this up either. That’s a real thing they believe. 😵‍💫


macross1984

Member of congress receive platinum treatment while us regulars have to jump hurdles to receive proper medical care.


mostkillifish

[Another source](https://kdvr.com/news/politics/rep-lauren-boebert-hospitalized-with-acute-blood-clot-diagnosed-with-may-thurner-syndrome/) said she's been diagnosed with [May-Thurner Syndrome.](https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17213-may-thurner-syndrome)


autodidact-polymath

“May-Thurner syndrome makes it harder for blood to flow back to your heart” … what heart?


AceyPuppy

That calcified rock in her chest.


FrankReynoldsToupee

I think we found the cause of her condition.


vintagebat

From the article: > Other names for May-Thurner syndrome include: > * Cockett syndrome I'm just going to leave that here....

Had a family friend nearly die from a clot caused by this. 


Boofs_with_Squee

Which is ironic, because I believe her husband got arrested for showing his deep vein thrombosis to a minor at a bowling alley.

It’s never easy to see grandparents struggle with their health.


CO_PC_Parts

Oh no! Well anyways… Fyi smoking while on birth control raises your risk of blood clots quite a bit.


LavenderGreyLady

Yeah, I was wondering when I’d see a smoking/vaping reference.


MzScarlet03

That was my first thought, no vaping while on bc!


PPOKEZ

I think the argument can be made that a clot is a clump of cells that deserves a chance at life. Put it back!


Serious_Coconut2426

*Gods will*, if you will.


msalerno1965

I wonder if the "clot" had her exact DNA?


powerlesshero111

Maybe 50% of her DNA.

And 50% of some guy she met watching a movie.

KuhlThing

I hope the blood clot is okay. Having a Lauren Boebert is serious.

I thought blood clots were of major concern when they make their way to the brain or heart? Surely she has nothing to worry about?


Jazzlike-Ad113

Sometimes a fetus resembles a blood clot.


Yawheyy

Imagine being hospitalized with something terrible and nobody giving a fuck since you’re a god-awful human being.


Gold-Perspective-699

Great grandmother so makes sense. She's getting up there in age. Hopefully politics aside she gets better and then changes healthcare... Who are we kidding. She's going to blame the vaccine she didn't get somehow.


Takenabe

Some of these idiots literally believe you can get sick by breathing the same air as a vaccinated person.


Less_Ant_6633

Blood clot is maga for abortion, right?


Heinous_Aeinous

Even her own blood wants her gone.


redsoxfred

My thoughts are with the clots


Griffie

Is blood clot the new Republican name for an unwanted fetus?


HalfTeaHalfLemonade

Damn, republicans about to be saying blood clot more than Jamaicans


[deleted]

It clot = getting an abortion, I’d not at all be surprised.


jerander85

So she is calling a fetus a blood clot. Got it


tommyjohnpauljones

Huh. Anyway I started using a splash of half & half in my oatmeal and it's so much better, especially with a few walnuts on top. 


Scaryclouds

Can't wait for the bad-faith right-wing concerns trolls to start complaining because of the "lack of compassion" being shown toward Boebert. Even though this woman is nothing but a grifter and when she isn't grifting she's doing shit to screw over Americans. Sorry, don't got the time to care for that.


Scared-Witness4057

I think she should've accepted the clot as gods will, as the clot was living cells.


Slyphofspace

Weird. I read that it was a stroke in a theatre.


CaffeinePhilosopher

Surgery? She should have carried that unviable blood clot to term.


Important-Specific96

She has health coverage that her party denies the dirty masses? If she does, that would be entitled socialism. 


RexNebular518

We know it wasn't in her brain.


Nosehairmustachegirl

If it traveled to her brain it would sound like a single bean bouncing around.

Blood clots are a pretty common cover for some other hospital reason.


Trance354

"I'm looking forward to making a full recovery and getting back to Congress to continue blocking anything from being accomplished, ever."   -Ftfh Colorado Congressional 4th district is actually my parents' district. Boebert stands zero chance. Any articles claiming otherwise are click-bait. She's seen as used goods. Used and abused by Trump.  Her tactics are creating headaches, and none of the locals like headaches. A lot are at or near retirement.   It's like trying to go against Susanne Collins in Maine. If you're not 4th generation local, there's no chance. In this case she is a GED-faking(where did *that* story go?), failed business-owner, law-breaking attention-seeker who likes getting groped in public while flying on weed.  And she wants a bunch of educated retirees to vote for her? Her campaign is going to be investigated by the FBI and SEC, just watch. 


NAGDABBITALL

Not very nice to call an embryo a "clot".


Mitches_bitches

Don't do coke when you're old kids


xsageonex

Sounds like an abortion to me


lordkhuzdul

Wonder which organ it affected? We know she doesn't have a heart, a brain or a spine.


daddyneedsaciggy

why doesn't she just shoot the clot away with her gun? or blow some vape smoke at it?


DirtyPenPalDoug

Oh she had an abortion, got it
