Yeo, biden and pelosi really are not that bad.
I agree the mechanism of this law involving private lawsuits against doctors is a complex approach.
The Supreme Court already ruled on it. But conservatives should cower in fear, anytime the media is opposed to them, according to you.
You’re exactly right in your characterization. The media is always criminally lazy in reporting on legal issues. The line in this article that SC “upheld” the law is flat out false.
If SCOTUS is going to take a gouge out of Roe… and I’ll believe that when I see it… it’s because Roe and Planned parenthood were poorly reasoned judicial activism. Hell even Ginsburg said Roe was a junk decision. If they act it will be on that basis, not on the basis of a novel trick.
Don’t get me wrong. I don’t mind the novel trick. We should attack this monstrous evil at all times in every way we can. But that doesn’t take away the fact that the Texas law is a novel trick
“I think he doesn’t like the snitching part of the bill”
It’s not just snitching.
It allows any citizen, without proving they were harmed in any way, to sue anyone they believe has facilitated an abortion past the emergence of a heart beat.
Ludicrous.
And I’m hard core pro life.
Some people don't like the constant Reagan bashing.It's cowardly and a total lie.
I agree with Trump.
It could be part of a plan,too...Hey prolifers look what I did,oops the SC has shot down the snitching part. Maybe it was put there for a reason, figuring the entire bill would be shot down...Buuuut,the republicans would still get credit for having tried it....Pro-lifers tend to vote for people who just say they are pro-life
I think Donaldus Maximus is referring to the upcoming case that will supersede the court letting this decision in TX stand.
In fact, I suspect the court didn’t want to get involved in the TX case exactly because of the upcoming major case.
"I think other things will happen and that will be the big deal and the big picture."
take a course in reading comprehension.
This isn't that case.
Why should Trump commit himself to a case that doesn't send Roe back to the states? A case that may not uphold once it actually gets to SCOTUS?
Just because first-to-the-post FRacebook red meaters want it? LOFL.
Engaging excessive litigation is the strangest 'solution' to Roe; you're going to see a blitz of Leftists counter-claiming and even trying to utilize Texas' fairly stringent frivolous lawsuit statutes.
If this was supposed to be an interim step before Roe is dismantled, where is the send-Roe-back-to-the-states case in the pipeline? Because again, this isn't it.
And to think that this case stops abortions? Texas is surrounded by notorious abortion mills in Baton Rouge, Little Rock, Norman, Albuquerque; and of course ground zero in Houston.
There will come a day when a Justice will write these words:
"The people that avail and aggrieve themselves of Roe as "settled law" have never once been asked, 'What was "settled law" before Roe? before Griswold?' This Court now asks that very question, as we send this case back to the states to be determined there thusly."
“Supposed” pro-life republicans in congress have pulled this for years.....Put out pro-life bills they know won’t pass,and they never call out the dems for being baby killers..They hate true pro-life republicans like Greene
Sorry, no more Bushes.
I believe that for the federal government to legalize abortion, you would need a constitutional amendment Otherwise, you would need to leave it up to the states. I think the Supreme Court is going to apply Roe vs Wade up to 6 weeks. Then after that, the states are free to interpret the law as they wish.
Newspaper trying to assemble a Republican circular firing squad.
Yes! Hear that Christians? As far as i’m concerned, if you support politicians who are pro-death, you assisted in murdering the baby. God is taking account.
The proper answer is that the ill passed the legislature and was signed by the governor. Let the residents of the state work it out. State’s right.
He was great but he wasn't perfect.
