i think the best way to understand the supreme court's conduct in trump v. united states is as an explicit effort to intervene in the 2024 election on behalf of the former president. it is a gross abuse of power on par with dred scott and deserves to be met with sanction from the elected branches.

They are celebrating. This is what they want. Sex must be punished by children. People with uteruses must not be allowed joy, autonomy or any other kind of independence.
From last week: After 15 years of declining teen birth rates, the trend is beginning to reverse itself ... starting with the end of Roe v Wade. A new study explains what we can expect next.
After Abortion Ban, Texas Teen Birth Rate Rises
According to a University of Houston report, the increase reverses a 15-year trend. And unwanted pregnancies will rise, researchers predict.

We are at a point where if the Republican leader goes on TV and instructs his followers to murder their neighbors, there will be massacres in every city and township, yet if anyone suggests drastic measures be taken to curb him and his party, it is they who are framed as dangerous radicals.
