The Supreme Court: RIP Literally Everything

Idk. Locally, I’d ordinarily say it won’t. But this time around it could help get Mike Lee out. Getting McMullen isn’t exactly a huge win, but it’s something.

They’re just now deciding on doing a march from here. They haven’t figured out what to do with all their energy. It’s totally seat of the pants.

Both of these are happening for sure. Like 90%+

It’s going to need to matter on like 30 years worth of election days, most likely. Probably including primaries.

Maybe they will and maybe they won’t ban interracial marriage, but nobody should believe that some of these states’ GOP delegations aren’t crazy enough to try it.

I’m sure there are some Republicans want to ban interracial marriage and quite a few who don’t care enough to go out of their way to stop them, but there are enough to prevent that from actually happening. However, they absolutely would be fine with permitting businesses to discriminate against interracial couples or for schools to ban interracial dating.

Apparently I passed along a bogus tweet. I’ll try not to do that again.

But you know one of them is going to come out and say exactly that any day now. Which is why it was so believable.

This bill technically also technically classifies having a period after having sex as murder.

So this bill directly goes after Griswold, and in order to uphold Griswold, SCOTUS would have to rule for a right to privacy contrary to the draft ruling in Dobbs.

Mom could do a medical abortion herself. Although they are prescription meds, getting them without a prescription is not that difficult using the magic of the interwebs.

It doesn’t matter if the life was actually threatened. It just matters if she was in fear for her life. She just needs to claim that she felt something weird, was in fear for her life and took the pills. There are enough pro-choice people around that I think getting a conviction should be tough.

Come to think of it, jury nullification seems like the end boss that the right is going to have a hard time getting over when it comes to going after the women. You’re gonna have to get 12 people to agree to put a woman in jail for getting an abortion. Seems that should be extremely difficult.

To be a law nit, claiming you needed to kill a fetus is a necessity defense, not self defense.

Quite frankly, I’d rather the average Evangelical leader look at a clump of cells like that than at an actual child.

I don’t get how abortion is just left to the states. Abortion seems to be on equal footing as casino gambling and marijuana.

I think I’m in this confused person’s video. Local paper estimated 1000 people. Idk, seems high. Enthusiastic crowd though.

Marijuana is federal. They’ve just been chill about it for the most part lately.
