Well yeah. Alito was executing "the plan" they all already agreed on back at the Federalist Society. SCOTUS has been captured by far right forces. The court is illegitimate and corrupt to the core.
Instead of protecting the Constitution, specifically the 9th Amendment, the current SCOTUS is instead denying and disparaging the basic rights of all those people who can get pregnant.
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
SCOTUS is either blind or bought off ... or both.
Of course he did. Overturning Roe was on all of their agendas as they were getting confirmed. They would just never admit to it. Conservatives are liars.
Yeah, of course. No doubt Alito circulated the opinion to allies before circulating to the rest is the court. Hell, I’m sure Alito has had it in his drafts folder for since he was appointed.
The bigger surprises:
These guys know how they are going to vote long before the case is even accepted to the Court.
It's a total charade, the whole fucking thing.
Think of it this way. We'd fail a 5th Grade student who didn't read a 100 page book and hold them back a year.
"Yep, that takes rights away from women alright. Good enough for me!" - Gorsuch probably.
It took him 10 minutes to pull out the rubber stamp?
Violence is the only reasonable response.
Every time I think I can’t possibly think less of the Supreme Court they go and surprise me
He knew the plan to overthrow Wade v Roe already and was just making sure it was on track.
