Susan Collins Accuses Gorsuch, Kavanaugh of Reneging on Commitment to Preserve Roe
national review ^ | 5/03/2022 | CAROLINE DOWNEY

Posted on 05/03/2022 9:26:46 AM PDT by ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas

Responding to the Monday night leak of a draft majority opinion that, if adopted, would overturn Roe v. Wade, Republican Senator Susan Collins accused Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch of reneging on commitments they allegedly made ahead of their respective confirmations.

“If this leaked draft opinion is the final decision and this reporting is accurate, it would be completely inconsistent with what Justice Gorsuch and Justice Kavanaugh said in their hearings and in our meetings,” Collins wrote. “Obviously, we won’t know each Justice’s decision and reasoning until the Supreme Court officially announces its opinion in this case.”

This twit doesn’t even know who released it, why, or what any final ruling will be

At 1:20 of that video, she is being consistent if this draft resembles the final ruling. Returns the question to each individual state, since we are a republic.

And Amy is correct, the core is that abortion itself will not be held illegal, but that each state decides whether it’s citizens can obtain in that state or go elsewhere. Context matters.

Her beliefs are in tact and the video backs that up. Collins can take her baby murdering beliefs to her own state.

Hopefully it continues to keep the nutcases out of my beautiful Wyoming.

SCOTUS should finalize and release the ruling in two weeks, max.

I’d be surprised, happily surprised if this gets turned over but I think this whole thing is a stunt to energize the lefts voting base and get ready for the summer of violence.

Q for Collins

How can someone agree to rule against the Constitution?

How can someone make that agreement with a third party?

That makes Collins a party to an illegal scheme to subvert the Constitution of the United States. Treason.

Roe is based on the due process clause from the 14th amendment: "or shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law", and this ruling literally re-classifies an unborn human into the exclusive personal property of the mother.

Any other characterization or explanation is "Russian Disinformation", period.

One cartoon depicts unborn babies sitting cloudtop reading today's headline, with millions stretched out on the clouds extending over the horizon.

"I wish I could have had a birthday." said one, expressing the thoughts of all those gone before.

This hangs heavy on my heart. Can't get it out of my mind.

Have you not heard, RIOT SEASON is starting a month early this year, meant to minimize the 2000 Mules release perhaps.

Left already seasoned the grill.

The problem is they are losing POC support. Not sue abortion would help get black & brown voters to support more crime, inflation & perverted schooling.

Yes, and they are already fighting tooth and nail to protect the leaker’s identity. Roberts supposedly kicked off an investigation. He wasn’t interested in the fraud committed to (or by) the FISA courts.

The Ass Press is saying the Alaskan RINO wants to codify the right to slaughter unborn children.

Susan Collins is an hysterical woman.

Even if Roe was overturned her kids. grandkids, and great grandkids could hop a bus and get an abortion within hours. It’ll be up to the states to make the decision. But she knows that ... It’s NOT 1950 there are abortion clinics in every blue state and every blue city and it’ll stay that way.

Susan Collins Accuses Gorsuch, Kavanaugh of Reneging on Commitment to Preserve Roe

Susan Collins has a short memory. When Gorsuch and Kavanaugh made a commitment to Preserve Roe they were probably talking about preservation of salmon roe by canning in Maine not Roe vs Wade.

Susan Collins should have been canned in Maine along time ago.

Nope. No 60 votes in the Senate to allow this, but if they were stupid enough to try, SCOTUS would overturn that one the weekend after it was voted on.

“peel off Barret and/or Kavanaugh”

Likely someone was signaling the “Intel Officers” to immediately present either the Barrett Adoption or Kavanaugh Sex-Scandal blackmail “dossier” to the respective target.

The justices rule on the case in front of them.

They don’t simply pull an old ruling off the shelf and change them.

It is amazing how many politicians pretend not to understand how the system they use every day, works.

Collins knows better, these justices didn't "commit" to anything but upholding the constitution. She's as bad as Murkowski and Romney, all 3 need to go.
