Y'all. Justice Sotomayor can count votes. She knows where this is headed... either viability is gone or Roe is gone.
Her questions are for the public... to let us know that abortion isn't the end. It's just beginning of the unraveling of these other rights of intimate life.

It's because they have spouses who handle childcare and household management.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
my terrible theory is that the reason married men with kids do so well in business is because married men with kids understand how interpersonal dynamics work across gender gaps and power differentials

1. The King and Queen of England are divorcees

Addendum: These two septuagenarians will certainly retire if Trump is elected... and they will be replaced with younger movement conservatives... meaning this 6-3 conservative super-majority will extend to the next generation and a half.
Justice Clarence Thomas is 75. Justice Alito is 74. They are getting older and will retire soon.
If Biden is re-elected and they retire, he gets to select their successors meaning a liberal Supreme Court.
Thatโs a good reason to vote for Biden in 2024.

This is really interesting. For so long, Thomas, as the only Black person on the Court, has gotten to frame race issues for his colleagues with very little pushback.
With KBJ on the Court, there's a competing voice and perspective on race. And he has to respond to her views.

This will not be like the pre-Roe landscape. It will be worse. The only way to enforce these bans is to rely on a surveillance state. And we now have to technology to do just that. Buckle up, folx.
10 states where abortion is now illegal have sent Google more than 5,700 demands for location tracking data since 2018.
There's growing alarm about how police or prosecutors could use that data to target abortion providers or people seeking the procedure. politico.com/news/2022/07/18โฆ

Heads up: This is the strategy. They don't need to win Congress. They just need to win the presidency and then the new DOJ can prioritize the enforcement of the Comstock Act (a law that was enacted in 1873 and has been unenforced, tho still on the books, for much of our lives).

1) State charges so no chance of a federal pardon if convicted.
2) Charged under GA RICO statute, which carries a min 5 year sentence.
3) 18 others charged... which means, given the 5 year min for RICO, lots of opportunities for folks to flip and cooperate.
