Ruth Bader Ginsburg dismantled a controversial Louisiana abortion bill during an hour of arguments at the US Supreme Court this week, systematically striking down components of the law she previously opposed during a preliminary vote.
The 86-year-old Supreme Court justice seemed to aggressively push back against demands from lawyers representing the Trump administration and state of Louisiana to approve the legislation during Wednesday’s arguments.
“If the woman has a problem, it will be her local hospital that she will need to go to for the care, not something 30 miles from the clinic, which does not have a necessary relationship to where she lives”, she said.
Moreover, the justice argued that women who have abortions rarely ever require medical treatment afterwards.
“Most of the people who get abortions never have any need to go to a hospital, isn't that so?" she asked the attorneys, later adding: “You don't dispute … that among medical procedures, first-trimester abortion is among the safest, far safer than childbirth."
The attorneys acknowledged that, while women occasionally require hospitalization after having an abortion, it’s “often true” that they do not.
The justice reminded attorneys that the Supreme Court “already held that admitting privileges served no medical benefit”.
“There is not even a plausible conflict in this case”, she said, according to a transcript of the arguments.

“To whom is it safer?”
You’re right. Half of the participating individuals in the process aren’t.

Your close to meeting your maker witch, would like to see the look on your face when he gives a thumbs down and you start to feel the heat
A vicious female friend of my wife started dumping this twisted propaganda on her when she first got pregnant with our first child. I do not have any idea where they get this or why they have to express it to unsuspecting young brides. Some pernicious reason exists but you will never find out what it is. All I know is that these wicked old bitches should not be expressing this opinion to young girls.
The pit yawns for her.
Evil b!tch writes off the life of the alive unborn, for whom her sacred rite of slaughtering the alive unborn is aimed at snuffing out life. God has given her over to e rebrobate mind. She needs to ‘get outta the line’. She will soon get the straight truth ... sooner rather than later in her condition.
RBG has a deep, abiding love for infanticide.
This pathetic leftist hag loves to murder babies. What a hot mess this disturbed loser is.
Completely agree with you, but you don’t die on the table - whereas in an abortion, one person does die on the table.
