Retribution? If true, I don’t blame the vice president for firing her, I congratulate the vice president for firing her.

Tucker Carlson rips the mind-bending woke stupidity from Democrats and media in the run up to the Jussie Smollett fake hate crime. Lie, on top of lie, on top of lie.

The 6:00 minute mark is about where you can watch media nitwits in 2019 proclaim how bad our country and MAGA folks are and what a precious victim Jussie Smollett was. Have any of these loud mouth fools come out publicly to correct their public support for Smollett?

Popular liberal society in this country, and by that I mean Democrat society, is pathetic. It is soul-sick. It is twisted to the point of disgusting.

Roe should stand or fall on constitutional merits — not on feigned outrage over changing constitutional precedent

What’s that you smell in the Supreme Court?

Jonathan Turley:

“…In Wednesday’s Supreme Court oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, Justice Sonia Sotomayor got a whiff of something she did not like. She said many abortion opponents, including the sponsors of the Mississippi abortion law at issue, hoped her three new colleagues would allow for the reversal or reduction of Roe v. Wade. With Justices Brett KavanaughNeil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett listening, she asked, “Will this institution survive the stench” created from such political machinations — and then answered: “I don’t see how it is possible.”

Of course, when justices begin to declare their disgust at the very thought of overturning precedent, there is another detectable scent in the courtroom. Indeed, it felt like a scene from Tennessee Williams’s play, “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.” The only thing missing was the play’s central character, “Big Daddy” Pollitt, asking: “What’s that smell in this room? … Didn’t you notice a powerful and obnoxious odor of mendacity in this room? There ain’t nothin’ more powerful than the odor of mendacity.”

Justices Sotomayor and Stephen Breyer insisted that overturning Roe in whole or in part would bring ruin upon the court by abandoning the principle of stare decisis, or the respect for precedent. Yet neither showed the same unflagging adherence to precedent when they sought to overturn conservative doctrines. Notably, Sotomayor pointed out another allegedly “political” decision in the court’s recognition of an individual right to bear arms; she and Breyer both indicated a willingness to overturn the ruling in that case, District of Columbia v. Heller. After that decision, both continued to dissent and argue that “the Framers did not write the Second Amendment in order to protect a private right of armed self-defense.” Indeed, they may reaffirm that position this term.

Sotomayor’s nose for judicial politics was also less sensitive when she recently called upon students to campaign against abortion laws — a major departure from the court’s apolitical traditions. After telling the students that “You know, I can’t change Texas’s law, but you can and everyone else who may or may not like it can go out there and be lobbying forces in changing laws that you don’t like.” She added: “I am pointing out to that when I shouldn’t because they tell me I shouldn’t.” That was more than a whiff of politics, but the same legal commentators applauding her “stench” comment were silent in condemning her direct call for political action on abortion. There also were few objections to the stench of politics when the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg publicly opposed a presidential candidate…”

Roe v. Wade is a goofy ad hoc abomination of a legal decision…

Dobbs abortion case threatens Democrats’ house of cards

WASHINGTON EXAMINER:

“…There is one thing that every serious legal scholar, regardless of his or her opinion on abortion, can agree on: The 1973 Supreme Court ruling in Roe v. Wade is a goofy ad hoc abomination of a legal decision. Don’t take our word for it — take the word of the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who called it a “heavy-handed judicial intervention” and “difficult to justify.”

Roe removed the issue of abortion from the democratic process. It also created a new right to kill one’s baby in utero. In deciding Roe, Justice Harry Blackmun and the Roe court set out to create a new version of women’s equality that the original suffragists would have soundly rejected. They did not care what sort of shoddy reasoning they needed to get there, and it really shows.

The abortion case that will be argued before the justices today, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health, offers them an opportunity to revisit Roe and its progeny — cases that have caused the United States to depart dramatically and unjustifiably from the civilized world when it comes to abortion laws.

Dobbs pertains to a Mississippi law limiting abortion to the first 15 weeks of pregnancy. For context, this law is still among the world’s least restrictive. Three-quarters of the world’s nations, including most of Western Europe, ban abortion after 12 weeks — i.e., the first trimester. Consider that if Mississippi’s law is allowed to stand, the Magnolia State will still have abortion laws looser than France. Meanwhile, only seven nations in the entire world, including the U.S., currently permit elective abortions after 20 weeks of gestation, as Roe and subsequent decisions have permitted.

To provide still more context, Democrats in several states have proposed laws to permit abortion right up to the moment of birth. They can still pass such laws even if Roe is overturned. But wouldn’t it be a bit barbaric?

Polls show that most people, regardless of their position on abortion’s legality in principle, support reasonable restrictions such as the one Mississippi is defending. For example, 65% believe that abortion should be illegal after 12 weeks, i.e. after the first trimester, according to a new poll from the Associated Press . This is a typical poll result. If people had been allowed to vote on this issue since the 1970s, laws in states where abortion is legal would probably look a lot like Mississippi’s. That, in addition to the specious legal reasoning behind the original ruling, is a sufficient reason for abolishing Roe and letting the voters decide.

Outside the legal realm, Roe’s legacy has been to make 62 million abortions possible over 48 years. Not only is that greater than the populations of California and Florida combined, but it skews with nearly genocidal disproportion toward the destruction of nascent black lives. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data, approximately 21 million non-Hispanic black lives have been extinguished directly by abortion since Roe. In some heavily black jurisdictions, such as Washington, D.C., more than one-third of all pregnancies end in termination. This is not inconsistent with the racist views of abortion pioneers such as Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger.

The Left has convinced itself that abortion is popular — that people will angrily come out and vote to defend it. That didn’t happen last month in blue Virginia. Democratic gubernatorial nominee Terry McAuliffe spent millions telling voters that his opponent would sign a restrictive abortion law like the one that had just taken effect in Texas. Exit polling shows that the voters who voted based on abortion actually broke for the Republican, Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin, by 20 points.

Pro-lifers should not delude themselves. Not all restrictions on abortion will be equally popular. But they have nothing to fear post-Roe in limiting a barbaric practice and working toward the legislative goal of protecting all human life, both inside and outside the womb.

In the meantime, Democrats are so far outside of the mainstream of public opinion on abortion that it has warped their perception. They will not see the collapse coming until after the courts stop holding up their house of cards…”
