I respectfully dissent from the dissents of the Two Stooges.
Sammy: Dobbs was a 14th amendment decision. THIS case arises from the earlier Supremacy Clause in the original document. The federal government's FDA regulates medicine, and its Post Office delivers the mail. Good luck convincing three of the other four Sometime Stooges that Comstock applies today any more than the Logan Act did when Mar-a-Lago was the White House in Exile.
Oreo: "Applicants are not entitled to a stay of an adverse court order based on lost profits from their criminal enterprise." But state student loan agencies had standing based on lost profits from their usurious collection of interest on "debts" from 30 years ago? Go suck a bag of pubic hairs.
I would argue that Alito's opinion about Dobbs restoring the rights of the states to regulate abortion within their borders is precisely why the use of telehealth to prescribe and mail mifepristone should still be allowed.
Why should some judge on the 5th circuit decide that a patient in some other state be denied the right to choose? Even a a blue state like California with liberal abortion laws, there are parts of the state that are very underserved and don't have easy clinic access. Now you have a judge ruling that women in these remote areas don't have the right to choose because they can't buy mifepristone via the mail.
How is that not interfering with the right of the state to regulate abortion? By disallowing the mail ordering of mifepristone, these women are being denied choice, even though their states permit it.
I’m actually glad Clarence mentioned the Comstock Act in his hissy dissent. For a minute everyone was warning us about Project 2025’s intent to weaponize Comstock; when they didn’t immediately do it, the panic died down.
They intend to fully eliminate abortion. Trump doesn’t care one way or the other, but he needs support from the foaming-at-the-mouth, forced-birth contingent. This isn’t over.
It is fascinating to see how personhood changes depending on which side of a border you are standing. So glad that as a white testicle-haver I am considered a full human being regardless of where I am. We should really strive to make it so for those unfortunate enough not to have achieved this status by birth as well.
I continue to be offended and summarily enraged to see indignant, scaldingly self-righteous MEN dictating the whens and wherefores of a woman's first weeks of pregnancy.
Men lack utterly and entirely the anatomical wherewithal necessary to conceive and gestate a small human being. Thus they should NOT have the last word regarding any woman's decision to terminate a pregnancy.
"Men lack utterly and entirely the anatomical wherewithal necessary to conceive and gestate a small human being. Thus they should NOT have the last word regarding any woman's decision to terminate a pregnancy."
"Love how he put it as 'restored the right of each state to decide how to regulate abortion” rather than “revoked the rights of women to make their own private medical decisions with their doctor rather than their state legislature.' He does have quite a way with words."
Ol' Scammy Scummy Sammy, thea master of doublespeak.
Other than extensive voting and voters rights protections, and equal rights protections for every last person located over us soil, and prosecuting the gop/ epstein class without the traditional white landed privilege and leniency, and reinstating all the environmental protections, kicking out everyone in the federal government hired by the trump admin and bringing back everyone that got fired by them, fixing all the programs that have been hollowed out by republicans in the last fifty years, handing over every trump admin official and cabinet member and military officer that can be indicted for war crimes to the hague, joining ukraine in the fight against libertarianism wet dream Russia, and blanket declaring every executive order from the trump presidencies null and void, and doing the same for all his judicial nominations, and the same for any sc decision Alito was a yes on in the last decade, and firing the 6 hack partisan conservative sc justices, and firing and disbarring from the profession of the law anyone who’s ever been in good standing with the federalist society, in order to really fix this country we need a constitutional amendment specifically telling Alito to try to impregnate himself, and if he wants to use contraception or have an abortion he can choose to do so.
Mifepristone isn’t the only abortion drug. “Misoprostol is the primary alternative drug used for medication abortion and can be used alone. While the standard, most effective U.S. protocol combines mifepristone and misoprostol (\(95\%-99\%\) effective), misoprostol-only regimens are safe, effective (\(80\%-90\%+\)), and widely used globally, especially if mifepristone is restricted.” –Planned Parenthood
Those chuds who filed the lawsuit know this, but they wanted to keep the cash donations coming in, so they pretended that this will end it once and for all. It won’t.

My angle in financial - insurance companies would rather reimburse a medical abortion than pay for pregnancy/labor/delivery.
They are waiting until after the general election.
Exactly. This is a "keep this out of the headlines until after the midterms" decision, and nothing more.

Alito can just kiss my butt.
Antonin Scalia? He's working remotely?
Ta, Robyn. It's too close to bedtime to be any more outraged than I was already.

I always, always read it as the Cumsock Act.
Eeeeewww but appropriate.
Would Alito and Thomas feel better if they thought of the decision as an overturning of precedent?

THIS ! ! ! THIS ! ! ! ! THIS ! ! ! ! ! !
Damn skippy! And as we all know, if men got pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament.
But Thomas and Alito have no problem with getting their Viagra through telehealth, right?
So what's the problem here?
There answer would be "Hardons are not illegal anywhere"

Pass me a shovel; there's undermining to do.

And then on Day Two...
Vaporize the oatriot act and all the bad decisions made in the wake of 9/11? Disband Ice? Canpain finance reform? And and and…
Hear, hear. If we all show up and vote, every cycle, we can get there, otherwise, we're SOL.
