Someone's legal career is over... -- nm - Ender May 2, 19:23
Maybe this spurs further research in medicinal abortion solutions like Plan B. - Mop May 2, 19:16 6
- First, Plan B is to prevent pregnancy. It isn't an abortion pill. - the wrong element May 2, 19:31
- You are going to have people traveling to blue states for Aborcations. Because the red states are going to ban it outright, banned once conception -- nm - Bacon May 2, 19:19 4
  - So it will hit the poor and young the hardest. -- nm - Bacon May 2, 19:19 3
    - and then the right will go for the all out ban. Oh states rights? Yeah fuck that because now it doesn't fit our goals anymore. Total ban fuck the - Bacon May 2, 19:21
    - That s always been the goal. Meat for the machine. -- nm - Beryllium May 2, 19:20 1
      - Yup. Force birth a base -- nm - Epiphany! May 2, 19:28
Is it mean of me to blame some of this on Ruth Ginsburg? - Bacon May 2, 19:04 3
- Yes, but also Dem leadership for never realizing they weren't playing by the same rules. -- nm - Reagen May 2, 19:15
- Her decision to not time her retirement was impactful, no doubt -- nm* - ty97 May 2, 19:14
- Nah. It’s fair. -- nm* - Volnelk May 2, 19:06
awful -- nm - Remlik May 2, 18:39
Question: can this be made into federal law or something? (NM) - Marlowe May 2, 18:24 18
- Yes, but it would be unlikely to pass. And if it did, it would be reversed as soon as the Republicans control Congress again. -- nm - Tim May 2, 18:36 1
  - so when/if Republicans take back control of Congress, then they can also pass laws to outlaw it completely yes -- nm - Jovian May 2, 19:02
- we can't even pass minimum wage, equal rights for women, covid relief, parental leave...this is the right's big issue -- nm - zeitgeist May 2, 18:32
- Until it's challenged and SCOTUS rules Congress has no authority to do so. - TWuG May 2, 18:29
- NAL: Yes, though the Dems probably can't or won't manage to do it. SCOTUS conservatives could also invalidate that law as violating state's rights. -- nm - ty97 May 2, 18:28 13
  - Followup: so that means that states as a rule can make sure it is legal in their territory, right? (NM) - Marlowe May 2, 18:43 12
    - Yes. We are now a blue and red nation on abortion law. -- nm - Will Hunting May 2, 18:44 11
      - The way they are wording it, seems like the failure is leaning on State's Rights which could be used to split many more issues up as well. -- nm - Qale May 2, 19:14
      - It’s expected to be illegal in over half of the states immediate if Roe were struck down. -- nm - Tim May 2, 18:50 1
        
        That's a lot of places we can't have the All-Star Game any more. - Mop May 2, 19:04
      - Double follow-up: what is the practical value of RvW at this point? I understand the symbolic significance, but if the GOP states can do what they can - Marlowe May 2, 18:47 3
        
        They couldn’t until this ruling was upheld / overturned. -- nm - Will Hunting May 2, 18:52 2
        
        But isn't the Texas law already active since whenever, or is it pending? (NM) - Marlowe May 2, 18:57 1
        
        only because of procedural technicalities, iinm, but which definitely telegraphed the court's stance on this decision -- nm* - znufrii May 2, 19:04
      - It’s the prosecuting of those who cross borders that I think is going to land this right back in SCOTUS within a matter of months. -- nm - Mop May 2, 18:46 3
        
        I actually think there's no way that gets upheld. -- nm - pmb May 2, 18:58 2
        
        You mean the criminalization of cross-border abortions? - Mop May 2, 19:06 1
        
        Yes. And yes. -- nm - pmb May 2, 19:11

Welcome to Gilead, America! If only old RBG had hung on for a couple more months -- nm - mud May 2, 18:06 5
- Okay good, I am not the only person that thinks this. I posted before I read. -- nm - Bacon May 2, 19:04 1
  - Well not exactly what I think. -- nm - Bacon May 2, 19:05
- Next up, birth control, gay marriage (and just being gay), interracial marriage. -- nm - Tim May 2, 18:09 2
  - I look forward to Thomas voting to overturn Loving v. Virginia. -- nm - Mop May 2, 18:38
  - I'll stay gay even when it's made illegal again. -- nm - Qale May 2, 18:15
SCOTUSblog insight on veracity of draft -- (link) - ty97 May 2, 18:05 1
- I mean that’s all great. But its clear they have it. -- nm - MDH May 2, 18:06
This is the most major leak in Supreme Court history. -- nm - MDH May 2, 18:02 1
- and (if true) also the least surprising -- nm - ty97 May 2, 18:02
