John Roberts joins liberal justices as Supreme Court blocks Louisiana abortion clinic law
Washington Times ^

WASHINGTON — A divided Supreme Court stopped Louisiana from enforcing new regulations on abortion clinics in a test of the conservative court’s views on abortion rights.

The justices said by a 5-4 vote late Thursday that they will not allow the state to put into effect a law that requires abortion providers to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals.

Its not limited to Roberts, Justices flipping Left seems to be a surprisingly widespread and one could say almost universal phenomenon for some reason.

No surprise - Roberts is another in a long line of betrayals by supposedly conservative SC justices. Liberal judges never backslide like this - say what you will about Ginsburg, she has once never let down the liberals. Only judges that Republican presidents appoint do this.

It’s not over yet!

“Chief Justice John Roberts joined the court’s four liberals in putting a hold on the law, pending a full review of the case.”

John Roberts is completely compromised.

A Bush appointee...

Congress can impeach. That’s about it.

Chief Justice Rehnquist missed 44 oral arguments in 2004/5, and worked and voted from home. No one has the ability to challenge things like that.

If RBG showed up to work, then we need to see the photos.

She was not at the State of the Union.

The good news is that Gorsuch & Kavanaugh have now shown that they will uphold some state laws that regulate abortion providers.

"Really sick and tired of this loser Roberts"

I'm really sick and tired of the whole damn court. Nine people in robes do NOT have the final say in our republic. The people are the boss, period. The supreme court is just that, the highest court, they are not the highest authority. That title lies with the people. Clearly we need an amendment to clarify that fact.

The same 5 will vote to deny a full review of the case. They will simply kill the law dead by not hearing it any further.

It is. These are ‘emergency’ rulings. Judges review and vote from wherever they may be traveling for vacations, speeches, etc.

I thought this was just a delay - was this the final ruling?
