10th amendment, regulating abortion isn't an enumerated power of the federal government.

According to the actual constitution only something which is explicitedly, expressedly allowed to the federal government can be done by it, everything else is strictly a state matter.

And even if a lot of previous courts close to annihilated this principle, this court finally recognizes it transparently, Dobbs makes it very clear.

Which btw is why even a federal abortion BAN would be completly unconstitutional and people on the constitutional right are trying to tell that to the theocratic right

(here they go the 14a route but i think the 10a is cleaner)

'Stop the Steal' symbol at Justice Alito's house.

An upside-down flag, adopted by Trump supporters contesting the Biden victory,
flew over Justice Samuel Alito's front lawn as the Supreme Court was considering an election case.

In most countries, hanging the NATIONAL FLAG WRONGLY OR UPSIDE DOWN IS A CHARGEABLE OFFENCE.

But when is the last time the Republicans had a veto proof super majority

Obama said when he campaigned it was priority number 1. He had the super majority for 72 days but decided to push the issue down the road

case in point

This seals my opinion that he should be impeached, along with Clarence Thomas.

Funniest part of Kid Rock's video is a shotgun is taking out all the cans from camera right.
Wonder how many takes it took before they realized Mr. Kid can't hit a house at 20 paces.

Justice Alito dumped Bud Light stock during MAGA boycott.

Second flag for Justice Alito

This time, it was the “Appeal to Heaven” flag, which, like the
inverted U.S. flag, was carried by rioters at the Capitol on Jan. 6

“Appeal to Heaven” flag flew at the Alito home in the summer of 2023 — around the time
the Supreme Court was considering whether Jan. 6 rioters could be prosecuted for obstruction.

“That flag is not merely another January 6 signifier but also rooted in John Locke’s
‘appeal to heaven,’ meaning ‘a responsibility to rebel, even use violence, to overthrow unjust rule.’”

Amazing. I wonder why this is just becoming known now? Even with my low opinion of Alito, I didn't realize he was a Traitors supported the violent overthrow of the US government.

When I became a federal employee, I had to take an oath that I had never supported such action. Is that required for induction to the Supreme Court?

"why would leftist media time the release of information damaging to the right for the election year even if it happened before" is a question that we will never be able to answer, I am afraid.

Seriously, we have two SC justices that want a fascist state, two more that probably won't fight it, a wild card with Roberts. That's pretty scary.

Add that to a guy that has a pretty good chance of being our next president that has made it crystal clear he wants to be dictator. And, he'll flood every powerful position he can to try to make that happen. And, a senate that wants nothing more than to keep him in power.

I think ultimately we'll survive this, but it's going to be rough going if he wins.

For the lucioms, washoes, and babas of the world. You think you want this, but it won't turn out well. It never has and it never will.
