Quick Hits: Dobbs Leak Edition

Note: Some are confused about Malice's meaning. He means, if the court is this bold on abortion, they may be equally bold on gun rights. That's all. I'm posting this mostly for the reply, which wrongly believes that abortion rights are guaranteed by the Constitution and gun rights are not.

Confession through projection:

Don't bother running over to Twitter to dunk on her -- this BlueTick already deleted her account. (Well, I think she deactivated it -- she'll be back once the heat dies down.)

Well, Obergefell does rely on the same line of "penumbras and emanations" line of "liberty" of sexual relations cases as Roe does.

Sad!

I'm in Mississippi outside the Jackson Women's Health Organization, the abortion clinic at the center of the SCOTUS case. While conservatives are celebrating the possible end of Roe v. Wade, some women here tell me they feel "gutted," "devastated," and "like someone has died."

You don't say. You don't say.

Health care decisions should be between a woman and her doctor, not Ted Cruz.

So nice to see Democrats taking a stand against vaccine mandates and using the word "woman" instead of "birthing person."

@kylegriffin1 Reuters: Amazon has told staff it will pay up to $4,000 in travel expenses annually for non-life threatening medical treatments including abortions.

Amazon. Yeah, I gotta end my subscription to Prime.

In the Ruthless podcast, they talk about corporations being pressured to take a stance on abortion at 23:55. They point out that, apart from Amazon, no one has come out with the Corporate Pro-Choice Statement today. They also note that "Ronny D." has made it not such a cost-free proposition to appease the left at the cost of the right.

Georgia's accidental Senator reminds Georgia's voters he's a pro-abortion pastor:

Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock As a pro-choice pastor, I’ve always believed that a patient's room is way too small for a woman, her doctor, and the United States government.

I'll always fight to protect a woman's right to choose. And that will never change.

You might have seen Bernie Sanders ranting that Roe must be codified into federal law and that the filibuster must be ended to permit this.

Cernovich @Cernovich

Abortion after the first trimester is incredibly unpopular in the United States, and outlawed in most of the civilized world. Democrats should 100% vote to codify Roe v Wade. They will not, because see the first sentence of this tweet.

Yeah. I'll talk about that in my next post, but the left is fond of talking about the public being in favor of abortion as a general matter. They don't like drilling down into specifics: the public is in favor of the legality of first-term abortions. They are against second term abortions and extremely opposed to third term abortions.

The latter are holy sacraments to Democrats.
