SUPREME COURT TO OVERTURN ROE V. WADE?

The Supreme Court has voted to strike down the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, according to an initial draft majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito circulated inside the court and obtained by POLITICO.
The draft opinion is a full-throated, unflinching repudiation of the 1973 decision which guaranteed federal constitutional protections of abortion rights and a subsequent 1992 decision – Planned Parenthood v. Casey – that largely maintained the right. “Roe was egregiously wrong from the start,” Alito writes.
“We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled,” he writes in the document, labeled as the “Opinion of the Court.” “It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.”
Deliberations on controversial cases have in the past been fluid. Justices can and sometimes do change their votes as draft opinions circulate and major decisions can be subject to multiple drafts and vote-trading, sometimes until just days before a decision is unveiled. The court’s holding will not be final until it is published, likely in the next two months.
The immediate impact of the ruling as drafted in February would be to end a half-century guarantee of federal constitutional protection of abortion rights and allow each state to decide whether to restrict or ban abortion. It’s unclear if there have been subsequent changes to the draft.
No draft decision in the modern history of the court has been disclosed publicly while a case was still pending. The unprecedented revelation is bound to intensify the debate over what was already the most controversial case on the docket this term.
The draft opinion offers an extraordinary window into the justices’ deliberations in one of the most consequential cases before the court in the last five decades. Some court-watchers predicted that the conservative majority would slice away at abortion rights without flatly overturning a 49-year-old precedent. The draft shows that the court is looking to reject Roe’s logic and legal protections.

        You beat me to it. With any luck, but we aren’t that lucky.

    Saw this just now at The Conservative Treehouse. Sundance calls this info sketchy from the get-go. That said both him and Politico say such a leak has never happened before.

    Makes a person say hmm. A justice leaves, another one is confirmed, and then the first leak in forever happens. Would a commie supreme court justice do such a thing?

    Stolen elections do have consequences.

      The court session has already occurred, these decisions have been made but the rulings not yet published.

      Zero cares what anyone’s analysis is who does not possess a JD.

    This could be a fake release for agitprop and court intimidation reasons.

      I’m not holding my breath.

      Real or fake, either final ruling is going to be earth shattering. Like I said below, if the court doesn’t erase Roe, then all of that talk about Trump’s terms being worth it because we stacked the courts is blown away. If the court does strike down Roe, then it SHOULD be war. Real war, I mean.

      The leak can be used as intelligence preparation of the battlefield. Everyone needs to be observing what the American right and left are doing right now to prepare. From what I can tell, the left wing still has an organizational advantage. They have AntiFa and Black Bloc groups that seem to be switched on and off as needed. On the flip side, I can barely find another soul in my neck of the woods to train with.

    Lot of pain coming, I think. What we’ve got is a court that was built by Trump in such a way that this kind of decision should go our way. If the court reverses itself from this apparent draft, then conservatives should finally wake up and realize that none of the government apparatus is working for us, even when the Republicans hold power. If the court really does overturn Roe, then I and many others rightly expect the left will explode and we will see cities and town burn again. AntiFa will do their usually thing and I expect police to provide support in the same way they did before, which is to allow them to attack innocent people and burn businesses. AntiFa, Black Bloc, BLM, BAMN, and other Marxist proxies will receive the go-ahead from whomever in our government and academia is calling their shots.

    So is the American right wing going to react appropriately to either scenario?

    I talked to a friend early this morning who set my wife and me up. He is a prosecutor. His views things are about to get sporty.

    As others have said in the comment section already, this could be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Just to reiterate, make sure you have your preparations in order. I think this is it boys. What a fitting way to begin the month of May, in which we Catholics venerate Mary. Godspeed all!

    A leak of this kind “undermines democracy” way more than the j6 field trip

    • NC Scout May 3, 2022 at 08:01

      Its the communist way.

    So my question to all of you who are readers here, and it is a rhetorical question:

    Are you ready morally, emotionally, and physically for a hot summer?

    The Republican Party is NOT going to save you. Paying your taxes and “backing the blue” sure as fuck isn’t going to save you. Politicans and billionaires of the week aren’t going to save you.

    • NC Scout May 3, 2022 at 08:02

      Amen Brother.

    Interesting timing of the “leak”, and the immediate reaction of the libtards.

    WTF guys, they trot this one out Every election cycle and whip up distractions from the real issues. Every single time. Two thoughts one that the noxious nine are seeking credibility after refusing to hear election issues and two, This also could be done to ramp up discontent and Division……Oh Yeah, might I add DISTRACTION ALERT for silly folks. I am afraid the GRAND SATANIC RITUAL will continue…….Classic Finkelthink , identity politics is the opiate of the masses. I have worked on cases that WERE SUBMITTED to the satanic nine and argued in many fed district courts in a previous life so not your average vegetable that fell off the truck
