"The Court has lurched so far rightward that Barrett’s views are sometimes moderate in comparison, but that doesn’t mean she’s liberal or will consistently work to stop Trump’s worst excesses. It likely does mean, though, that she represents the best possibility for liberal outcomes at the Court."

#Wisconsin #HighCourt to hear #arguments on whether an 1849 #abortion #ban remains #valid.

#Abortionrights #advocates are optimistic, as #liberal #justices control the #court, with one openly supporting #abortionrights on the #campaign #trail. Monday's arguments are largely a #formality, with a #ruling expected in weeks.

Spot.

As I have reiterated to them in the past, THEY are to blame for Roe being overturned, They are responsible for the six right-wing #JUSTICES and they are to blame for dooming Hillary's presidential chances by voting Jill Stein and Trump in 2016.
