Do you believe that the Supreme Court is supreme over the Congress, the Executive Branch, the people, God’s law, the natural law and the clear words of the Constitution? You don’t believe in co-equal branches of government and checks and balances on power?

If so, the sworn oaths of all those other folks who aren’t sitting on a bench don’t mean much of anything at all, do they? At best, if we’re now a judicial oligarchy instead of a constitutional republic they’re a mere formality.

If you think this is entirely up to the courts you’re a judicial supremacist, and your way of thinking has already utterly failed. For decades we’ve worked to put so-called “pro-life” “Republican” Presidents in the White House and “constitutionalist” judges on the bench. Six of the nine judges currently on the Supreme Court were nominated by Republican Presidents. And not one of them will simply recognize the personhood of the child in the womb and invoke the unmistakable requirements of the Fourteenth Amendment. Not one.

And the US Senate is a moral wasteland.

I'll address the above as it's the only relevant part of your commentary.

The Supreme Court is the final arbiter of the meaning of the Constitution in our political system, until...or unless the Court overturns itself (this has occurred) or a Constitutional Amendment is Ratified.

The Constitution is the supreme law of the land.

Until Roe is overturned, ALL OTHER POLITICAL ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH PERSONHOOD IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.

If you want to overturn Roe, there are only two viable paths:

1. Constitutional Amendment, duly ratified by the Congress and the States.

2. Strict Constitutionalists in the US Senate who will only consent to Strict Constitutionalists on the USSC...and, in a 1-3 decade period that cadre of Senators, continually replenished, will find themselves with an opportunity to put the 5th vote on the USSC to overturn Roe.

The only viable 3rd path is armed revolution.

If you cannot see and understand these facts there's little anyone can do to help.
