That inclination was most dramatically demonstrated in last year’s #Dobbs decision, when the Court overturned the #constitutional #right to #abortion.

And that is fundamentally impossible today; it has been for at least 20 years, and is likely to remain impossible indefinitely.
So while you can - and I do - #blame #Trudeau for many, many things, this one isn't on him.
Promising to do it in the first place, #knowing it was #impossible, however, was pretty damned #stupid of him.

Citing that #law, lawyers for the #pipeline asked the #SupremeCourt to vacate the lower court order & direct dismissal of the litigation. They argued that under the new law, the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals no longer has the power to hear the case. The federal gov weighed in as well, supporting the pipeline's #legal position.

What happened to HIPAA? Is a "state A.G." considered "a tribunal"? How are they getting federal judges to sign off on a state-law subpoena? Because this says HIPAA right to medical privacy is federal law. #Constitutional law notwithstanding.

Step 4: Push for a federal ban on abortions, no matter what states think.
Step 5: Argue that privacy about #contraception is not a constitutional right ...
