FIRST: Texas is well within it constitutional rights to NULLIFY AND REJECT federal acts and court decisions that are unconstitutional. Texas and all states are sovereign outside the limited power delegated by the Constitution to the feds as confirmed by the Ninth and Tenth Amendments. The fact is the federal government has NO constitutional power to interfere with a state's abortion laws. The flawed and counterfeit Incorporation Doctrine is no shelter for this unjust and invalid decision.

SECOND: the scope of this decision is LIMITED to the parties of the case. The Constitution does NOT give the judicial branch legislative power to create national law. The constitutional power of the judicial branch is LIMITED TO INDIVIDUAL CASES AND CONTROVERSIES (Art III, Sec 2).

It practice: it’s going to take something like Texas seceding to enforce such a notion. We have an Achilles heel in the constitution and it’s called the Supreme Court. It’s been known about for, what, only 200+ years. The people have shown that it can be manipulated like Silly Putty and they will still Bow Down to that Play Doh play.

The pro-life movement should have been demanding nullification since January 22, 1973.

The words “women’s health” have translated to “kill the baby” for a long time now.

Do we have comparable examples of state law governing dentists, eye doctors, general medical clinics, same-day surgery centers, and the like?

For:

1. The doctor/facility must have admitting privs to a nearby hospital.

2. The facility must meet ambulatory surgical center standards.

Isn’t this actually a “good” decision, as it deregulates the entire industry of medical care facilities and surgery centers not in hospitals?

No, the Constitution never gave legislative power to the judicial branch. SCOTUS power is constitutionally limited to individual cases and controversies and the scope of its authority is limited to the parties in that case and may serve as precedent for other cases with the same parties, facts, or questions of law. SCOTUS cannot constitutionally make national law. Constitutionally only Congress can make national law. The unconscionable and unconstitutional expansion of SCOTUS power is a PERVERSION of the constitution forced upon us by the Left.

Texas has every right to nullify and reject this decision. You’ve gotta take it step by step. Prior to the Civil War, the South erred when it seceded prior to petitioning and documenting their grievances for the feds and the world to see regarding federal unconstitutional federal action (there hadn’t been any such action yet taken - the South seceded in anticipation of such action).

Start with state nullification of unconstitutional federal acts and decisions as this one is. Next is the feds cutting off funding to the state which would be a favor to the state if the state could only see that financial independence would be a great blessing as it was at America’s founding. See what happens next. Maybe secession, maybe not, maybe shots fired and war breaking out, maybe not. One thing for sure - freedom from tyranny is worth fighting and dying for.

All you need is ONE STATE to nullify. Just one state to get the guts to stand up to these jackals and go financially independent. Sooner than later that state would be more financially sound than the stupid bankrupt feds anyway. One state. Others would follow.

Yup. The legal argument against unconstitutional federal interference is clear.

Aside from that, the answer to

“My Body, My Choice” is

“Your Choice Ends at the Beginning of Your Baby’s Body”.

Yes and again the Constitution gives the feds NO authority to interfere with ANY of it. Healthcare and state healthcare laws are NONE of the feds frikin’ business.

No unconstitutional federal interference with state law are never good. It is by definition tyranny.

Again, the Constitution gives the feds NO authority to interfere with ANY of this. Healthcare and state healthcare laws are NONE of the feds constitutional business.

Well said. Too bad that brilliant insight is never uttered by the State run media or for that matter talk radio.

Yes, how I wish I could deliver this stuff on talk radio to so many people that could benefit from this stuff I think.

I guess for now, this is my “talk radio”. How I would love to broadcast this stuff and how America needs to hear this from me and like-minded others....

Some day I hope...

“Your Choice Ends at the Beginning of Your Baby’s Body”.

And your choice was to engage in the behavior which resulted in a baby. Why should the innocent baby be punished?

Or maybe it was rape which of course is a very low %. Nevertheless, should the baby be punished? Of course not. Again, the woman’s “choice ends at the beginning of her baby’s body.”

I wish I could get the message to Trump: Don’t get involved in the details—rape, incest, bogus life-of-the-mother, at the federal level. Just let all fifty governors know that if they nullify Roe v. Wade, and shut down abortion mills, and allow citizens to shut them down, you (Trump) will not lift a finger.

“SCOTUS cannot constitutionally make national law. Constitutionally only Congress can make national law”

I am still dumbfounded that the States went along with Roe v. Wade. The timidity of Congress and the States to check the unconstitutional actions of the courts have encouraged these black robed tyrants.

This is not going to end well.

As an agent of the feds, Trump is not constitutionally authorized to officially lift a finger about abortion regardless of what the states do despite misplaced reliance on the fatally flawed incorporation doctrine.

And besides the illegality of federal meddling in state anti-abortion laws, the states, as here in Texas, have generally tended towards severe restrictions on abortion. It is federal tyranny that has unleashed the parade of horribles in our land including the infanticide of 70+ million abortions.
