The Supremes

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Biden may have effed up by refusing to pack the court.

It empowered them.
It's not too late.

Probably is. Early on, he might have gotten rid of the filibuster and increased the number of justices when there was still some euphoria of getting rid of Trump. Now, the Trumpers hate him even more and the Dems and "Independents" are disillusioned and discouraged - at best.

Even without a confirmed Constitutional "right", Congress could fix the issue with federal legislation. But they won't, largely because Biden missed his window of chance to get rid of the filibuster. Consider if they had one that, what could have been passed by now that would be nationally popular. Instead, he's bogged down and doesn't even get credit for the popular infrastructure bill.

Except maybe definition 2

Oath
a solemn promise, often invoking a divine witness, regarding one's future action or behavior.
"they took an oath of allegiance to the king"

2.
a profane or offensive expression used to express anger or other strong emotions.
"he exploded with a mouthful of oaths"

Godwin be damned, republiKKKans and the rest of the RW trash have shed all pretense and gone full-tilt nazi, so-called churches included. Dictatorial theocracy is on the doorstep, people. Welcome to the birth of the Republik of Gilead.

C'mon man.
Why not work through private and some religious organizations to provide the services.
So what if it doesn't work perfectly. It would help keep it in the news and on the ballot.

As Herschel would say, "Think about it".

Already happening in some states. It will have to expand a hundredfold, but damn that's a lot of effort and money. Then, some states will ban the pill and others will ban leaving the state for an abortion. This will lead to a massive and intrusive pregnancy police monitoring women for any signs of pregnancy.

I heard (of course only part) an interview with a doctor from the Netherlands who does a huge mail order business to the US.

That pill will make this new insanity at least a little better than it was before Roe - for some.

Look at Texas. Neighbors and family can report women.

I remember in all the lessons on communism in grade school focused on evil communism turning neighbor against neighbor and children against parents.

So?

So is driving 20 mph over the speed limit. So are a lot of things. The doc I mentioned earlier ships everything in plain packaging.

Or a lot of people can afford a day or weekend in Mexico.
And maybe we can help the others.
