WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Monday let stand a decision barring emergency abortions that violate the law in Texas, which has one of the country’s strictest abortion bans.
Without detailing their reasoning, the justices kept in place a lower court order that said hospitals cannot be required to provide pregnancy terminations that would violate Texas law.
The Biden administration had asked the justices to throw out the lower court order, arguing that hospitals have to perform abortions in emergency situations under federal law. The administration pointed to the Supreme Court’s action in a similar case from Idaho earlier this year in which the justices narrowly allowed emergency abortions to resume while a lawsuit continues.
The administration also cited a Texas Supreme Court ruling that said doctors do not have to wait until a woman’s life is in immediate danger to provide an abortion legally. The administration said it brings Texas in line with federal law and means the lower court ruling is not necessary.
I call them the American Mullahs. We all have to follow their pronouncements and there’s fuck all we can do to get rid of them until they die.
There’s a lot we can do about it, actually. We can expand the court, we can get guillotines, we can disband their institution.
And when are you planning to lead this revolution? Where and when does the mob gather?
Stochastic terrorism will probably eventually lead to one of these justices being murdered. I won’t be happy about further destabilization, but these conservatives are doing a lot of harm. I won’t mourn their passing, even if it’s explosive.
For that you’d need popular opinion on your side. Currently, it’s not. So, I think we should attempt to persuade as many people as possible to vote to dismantle the Christian hegemony.

There is also a legal construct to impeach them. However, the other branches of the government would have to be capable of doing anything.
I’ll be interested when that is actually being done, and it has an effect.
