What is your view of the criticism of Judge Maryanne Trump Barry in the the article:
"Laws against partial-birth abortion had strong bipartisan support. They were attempts to mark an outer limit to the abortion right of Roe. If unborn children could not be protected within the womb, could they at least be protected when partway out? That would be illogical, said Judge Barry. But if the location of fetal death does not matter, then it could hardly matter if the child was all the way outside the womb. Laws against infanticide, too, must be dismissed as irrational line-drawing. The intellectual architect of the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act, Hadley Arkes, mentions Judge Barry's decision in his book on the origin of that law, explaining that it was in part designed to head off the dangerous implications of such rulings."
There was a case (if iirc from Nebraska) decided by the SCOTUS week or so before this decision was made. Because the two cases were identical her court waited until that upper court decision came down. They had to follow that decision of the upper court. Her vote was identicle to Sam Alitos. That is a hit piece by a lazy STUPID journalist who didn’t do his homework
I personally don’t understand the ruling or the reasons for it.
However, I don’t see the relevance.
Trump would not be allowed to appoint his sister to the Supreme Court simply because she is his sister.
And the fact that Trump loves his sister does not mean he necessarily agrees with with her or even knows about her rulings in court.
I have a sister whom I love dearly and I would never say anything critical about her but that doesn’t mean I agree with everything she does or everything she believes.
And if you're looking for a flame war...go have one the the SMOKEY BACKROOM site of FR.
