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.

      Sounds like exactly what a fascist would say. It’s a lie that only benefits fascists, after all.

      No one has ever seriously called me a bigot. It sounds like they have called you one. I wonder why that could be?

        that just shows you have not used the internet very well and that your being disingenuous because people can say what ever fuck they want as you are showing right now. if you want to take everything seriously people call you that’s your problem not mine.

            this only makes it worse. do you think just because you know the internet existed sins 1989 that it can not be that you have been doing it wrong. this is not an argument in your favor. your previous disingenuous reply was very funny i never take tactics like that very seriously.

              Sorry, it makes it worse that I haven’t been called a bigot in all that time? That’s a badge of honor or something?

              Do you think it’s maybe just because I don’t say bigoted things?

                its makes it worse that you know the internet exists for that long and you have no clue how it works. because calling people bigots online is not argument its a distraction and you show this tactic very well. it show your ignorant or your just keeping dumb to show how virtues you are for internet cloud both are dumb. your Humble bragging is just funny.

                    you don’t know how it works because you are trying to seriously say again that calling random people names on the internet somehow means anything like its some kind of argument. its meaningless its a diversion to make you defend yourself instead of staying on the fucking point. as you have showed very well. i find it very funny how you like too sniff your own farts and the sniffing only gets harder and more intense.
