SCOTUS, Now with KBJ

[ScoobyDoo]

A lot of women don’t know they are pregnant right away. ESP ones not planning to be

True. But Handy did say "might be". I would hope most women would know if they are in that category or not.

I’d think people who travel to Nola for fun are generally fun loving people, but yeah perhaps it will only be those who don’t have sex lol

Among the zillions of reasons this is positively horrifying is Alito's claims that unenumerated rights must be "deeply rooted in history" to be valid. You know, like contraceptives, gay marriage, interracial marriage, transition treatment, etc. There have been 50 years of decisions that reference Roe, and with that fundamental bedrock removed...

I’m not gonna pay my student loans back I guess. Not a deeply rooted right for women

I read a comment joking (joking-ish?) that this draft read like a 2-Law student who just completed his Con Law courses and thinks he knows something, but is just using his (poor) grasp of judicial precedent to validate his pre-conceived conclusion. That this would result in either a straight F or a "re do this, but like, for real next time".

What would the Founding Fathers do??!?!?!1/ https://slate.com/news-and-politics/...on-recipe.html

The one thing saving Alaska from those Republican draconian laws is our personal privacy provision in our state constitution and decades of court rulings affirming the right (plus a system that prevents idiots from being appointed to judgeships).

In other news, Republicans in Alaska have been pushing for a state constitutional convention for some reason…

That sounds like Alito.

I've read all the speculation. I've heard all the arguments. The only party that benefits from the leak is the Republicans. No one else. If a liberal leaked this they are stupid beyond belief.

Well even if we stipulate that LA would want to test every woman within their border (I cant think of an airport that could even try to do that they can barely handle having CLEAR lines) what are they gonna go if say you go to LA and they find out you are pregnant? You can't get an abortion there, and you certainly wouldn't go to a doctor there even in NoLa unless you had a severe emergency. They can't force you to stay throughout the pregnancy so you would just fly home here and be safe after your travels. If you are an LA resident though get used to being spied on until the baby is born...

Here is where things are going to really destroy this country; as soon as the Supremes uphold any State Law that prohibits pregnant people from going out of state to get an abortion. If we are going to give States ultimate authority and sovereignty then by definition one state can't stop another state from doing what is legal within their borders. If the Supremes decide that is no longer the truth, then for all intents and purposes the Union is dissolved. Each state becomes independent, a nation unto itself. Plus, wouldn't the inverse then be true? If say NoDak can say no NoDaker can come to Minnesota to get an abortion couldn't Minnesota then say no Minnesotan can be denied an abortion in NoDak? Isnt this why the Federal Government exists, so such fighting between the states doesn't occur?

We are literally one decision by the Supremes away from basically nullifying the USA.

It's murder. If it's murder it's not legal anywhere.

I am not usually a fan of that crew...but that is a message that needs to be shared.

Speaking of people I am not a fan of Tesla says they will cover the costs of their workers who need to leave the state to get an abortion. Methinks MAGA won't be happy with that. Elon really just enjoys being a supervillain and ****ing off all sides.
