Of course.

Roberts only voted on the right side because it would be a majority even without him.

Yep. The dems are pushing a false narrative as usual and as usual their faithful imbeciles are chirping the same.

As RBG pointed out, SCOTUS created a right that was not in the Constitution. She knew sooner or later this would be challenged and won. Surprised it took 50 years.

While I wish the majority opinion didn't engage so much with the dissent's political arguments, Alito just became my second favorite living justice with this:

"We do not pretend to know how our political system or
society will respond to today’s decision overruling Roe and
Casey. And even if we could foresee what will happen, we
would have no authority to let that knowledge influence our
decision. We can only do our job, which is to interpret the
law, apply longstanding principles of stare decisis, and decide this case accordingly.
We therefore hold that the Constitution does not confer a
right to abortion. Roe and Casey must be overruled, and the
authority to regulate abortion must be returned to the people and their elected representatives."

THAT is what the Constitution and our country's very deliberate division of powers stand for.

Edit to add: I just got to the point in the opinion where Alito announces the standard that the court will use in the future for determining whether state laws on abortion are constitutional: Rational review. This is the lowest standard and the right one. As long as a state can rationally explain why it is limiting abortions, it's constitutional. So protecting human life, or potential human life, will become the only reason any state needs to ban or otherwise regulate abortion.

This truly is a revolutionary decision.

I hate to admit it, but I am a little fearful of what is about to happen with the evil frickers we have in charge right now.

True, but that ALSO would have been cover for him to “virtue-signal” to the Left, as well. “See!! I’m not some meanie Right-winger!! I tried to keep Roe!”.

The Miranda warning was also thrown out today. It's a great day for America.

Back to coat hangers in a back alley like the good ol'days, nuttin toit

No, it wasn’t. The Miranda Warning still applies.

Truth.


And don’t forget who pushed the 3 candidates through the Senate for confirmation of them,,,,as painful as that may be.

I view this as another long needed step towards Balkanization.

Historic day ! Take that you nasty ass feminist !

Not sure you got that right.

God bless the USA.

Rates right in there with my loss of privacy with communications via the wonderful Patriot Act.

Virginia State Police was put on alert about 10 minutes ago for expedited deployment due to the "high possibility of civil unrest". How's the rest of the country looking?

I didn't get to read the whole article

I think I'm cancelling my trip to Milwaukee tomorrow - just in case.

Amazon will be selling DIY kits in no time.

My guess is a lot of ugly women will be moving to Kalifornia to have those much needed abortions. Which is good, as do we really want them to reproduce!
