A story. When I was in law school, a long long time ago (but not so long), Justice Scalia came to speak. This was shortly after Lawrence v TX. My classmate asked him "do you sodomize your wife?" bc Scalia thought the state could ask and criminalize this. All hell broke loose

I am nearly 43 yrs old. I have had 2 children, probably 10+ gyns, and so many pelvic exams. Only last week did I encounter a doctor who first asked, "so many women have experienced sexual assault, will you be comfortable with this exam? Or can we talk about what you need?" 🤯

The response of the law school was to hold events on civility or "how to address your superior, a Supreme Court justice." Our classmates turned on him unrelentingly. But why? Scalia was not civil. Maybe my classmate wasn't either. But he at least challenged power

In an interesting twist on Texas SB 8, the TX Medical Board has received a complaint against Dr. Braid, who provided an abortion after six weeks, asking for investigation & suspension of his license--from no other than Operation Rescue

In particular, the Court says that objectors don't have to provide emergency abortion care. That EMTALA gives away to conscience laws. Doctors can let patients bleed out if they assert federal conscience laws. That's wrong both morally and legally

Have we considered that Justice Alito, having achieved the reversal of Roe and called into question all substantive due process rights, has cemented his legacy and may look to retire?

Judge K also says the Comstock Act of 1873 means any drug used for producing an abortion is "unmailable" and mailing such a drug--regardless of unlawful intent--is a crime under federal law. This too potentially applies beyond mife

That @WholeWomans is leaving Texas is a tragedy. WWH has fought for Texans for yrs. They were a profile in courage under SB8. Their staff are heroes. But [genuine feelings alert] this hurts. WWH will still care for Texans who can reach them. But TX is so much poorer without them

WWH has served Texas for nearly 20 years, and our love runs deep. As of last Friday, Texas has banned abortion entirely in response to the fall of #RoevWade . Our patients need a Whole Woman’s Health to go to now that Texas has cruelty taken away it’s basic healthcare need.

Why does it matter? It creates a legal safe harbor to refuse emergency abortion care nationwide. Catholic hospitals and (where they exist) objecting providers will feel authorized by this Court to deny care as pregnant people suffer serious jeopardy to their lives and health

@TCBurrus Do tell what's the libertarian argument for criminalizing sodomy? And shouldn't we applaud the marketplace of ideas, rough and tumble as it may be?

Judge K nods toward accepting the argument that fetuses are constitutional persons. He says the consideration of whether the agency's action will result in "individual injustice" and "irreparable injury" "also arguably applies to the unborn humans extinguished by mifepristone"
