Scalia:

On the first question, he says, ‘the majority has to invent new rules for how long a recess can be before the President is allowed to make recess appointments: A three-day break is too short. A four-to-nine day break is probably too short, unless the President can persuade a court that the situation was really urgent. And ten days is probably long enough most of the time, although the majority isn’t really clear about that.” “These new rules have no basis whatsoever in the Constitution,” Scalia continues. “They are just made up.”

And of course, there is no hint in the Constitution that there is a “right of privacy” that a state infringes if it prohibits the killing of a baby.

And there is no hint in the Constitution that there is such a thing as a “trimester” in a pregnancy. It is scandalous that virtually everybody speaks of “trimesters” when talking about pregnancy. Until Roe v. Wade, NOBODY ever spoke of anything other than “months” or “weeks.”
