Kamala Harris recently graced Houston with her presence, aiming to pump up the crowd with her favorite campaign accessory: a passionate endorsement of abortion. Not content to simply wax poetic about women’s rights, she used the occasion to back Democratic Rep. Colin Allred, who’s angling for the Senate seat currently held by Republican Ted Cruz. However, the spotlight was almost immediately stolen when the rally turned into an unexpected episode of “Emergency Medical Situations: The Unplanned Edition.”
While Dr. Todd Ivey, the rally’s headlining abortion advocate, was busy delivering his heavily rehearsed speech about the supposed perils of anti-abortion laws, reality intruded in a most graphic manner. A medical emergency erupted in the crowd, complete with anguished cries for a medic. Instead of flying into action, the self-declared “doctors” at the podium appeared more interested in their sound bites than in saving lives. The irony of discussing life-saving medical procedures while ignoring actual distress was lost on them, of course. Eventually, even Ivey had to concede that someone needed help, but only after several calls for assistance pierced his sanctimonious musings.
This is the Kamala campaign in a nutshell.
She brought up all these doctors to say how much they love and support abortion.
Someone in the crowd had a medical emergency and called for medics.
Not one of the abortion doctors helped them.
Spot on.

This theatrical display marks the perfect encapsulation of Harris’s campaign strategy. It’s all about advocating for abortion without addressing the stark reality – a reality where, ironically, no one knew how to preserve life when it mattered. It’s hard to ignore that these professionals were supposed to be experts in healthcare yet stood by, seemingly paralyzed, while someone in the crowd required immediate medical attention. This begs the question about the actual qualifications of those waving the pro-abortion banner while neglecting basic human decency.
Dr. Ivey’s courtroom drama didn’t stop at the chaos of the rally. He went on to lament how his patients must “flee the state” for care, a rather melodramatic flair reminiscent of a soap opera villain. Meanwhile, the invisible hand of responsibility could be seen waving goodbye as fellow OBGYNs from the American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs set the record straight. They were quick to respond to the misinformation being bandied about by Ivey and his cohorts, pointing out that genuine healthcare isn’t predicated on ending life but preserving it—something clearly lost on the physicians at Harris’s rally.
The event’s pièce de résistance was Harris’s guest appearance by international pop icon Beyoncé, who was rumored to electrify the night with a surprise performance. Unfortunately for attendees, the show turned out to be much ado about nothing. While locals had braced themselves for a dazzling display, the reality shocked them into early departure, leaving many disgruntled fans spewing skepticism on social media. One attendee, Danielle, expressed genuine disappointment after waiting for what felt like an eternity, with some folks even succumbing to illness amidst the excitement of waiting for a nonexistent performance.
The whole affair served to highlight the disconnection between Harris’s policy focuses and the reality of the world outside her carefully curated bubble. While promoting the Women’s Health Protection Act, which seeks to enshrine abortion rights without limitations, the Democrats seem more dedicated to their agenda than to the health and safety of women. As they push narratives filled with alarmist tales and fictitious crises, it’s clear that the Harris-Allred campaign is more about political theater than genuine compassion or care for women’s health. The incessant focus on abortion appears increasingly out of touch, especially when real-life emergencies unfold under their very noses.
