I will repeat this as long as I have to, when the Supreme Court said in 1937 that the Social Security Act was “unconstitutional”, FDR didn’t ask people to vote harder in the next election, he told the Court he’d add more justices until they backed off, which they did.
@timoth31lee@katielannan New England Republicans aren’t beholden to evangelicals. They want the votes of wealthy socially liberal people who vote for Dems in national elections.
@janks729@DrAudreyGlover@katielannan A state can’t prosecute you for something that you did in a different state. They have no jurisdiction in that state and extradition does not apply.
@jmpalmieri@chrislhayes Montana conservatives are somewhat more libertarian than conservatives nationally. I wonder if this extends to abortion. Not holding my breath.
@ejeancarroll That’s a really bad idea and would guarantee a GOP victory. Vote for pro-choice Dems. Most Dem voters are women, so vote for a woman Prez candidate and we’ll get one.
@JKillograms @StumptownRetro @5X7MkUAqgGDwSZD @SteveHofstetter Dude was thinking of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Hillary ran a terrible campaign, but Green Party voters share some of the blame for this mess. Roe would still be around if they had sucked it up.
@MollyJongFast Interesting that the SC would choose to make this ruling right before midterms instead of just waiting until next year. But we’ll have to wait and see the response from Ohio and Iowa.
@slashdottir @kenolin1 That just means that states like Ohio and Iowa will get redder and redder. That’s a bad thing. On the other hand, if enough Californians move to Texas then we can change the electoral calculus for a generation.
