I would put stock in the idea that they believed it safer to sell than to hold onto because it's their money at risk.

Well no shit. We are talking about why.

And the "why" is that Trump gave one of the most unhinged and hilariously insane interviews he has ever given.

They believed his chances of winning the election plummeted.

Hard to point at anything else. Maybe they found out he has 2 weeks to live?

Babbit's blood is on Trump's hands and no one else's.

Did he shoot her paid fake?

Incoherence seems to be an ongoing theme in politics today. Guess we'll just have to go with the one who's already proven he can lead the country.

Two impeachments and driving the country into the ground shows the opposite.

The constitution says that.....

And....

The issue with Roe was the SC made law nationally, by their decision....and the SC can't make laws for the Nation, only Congress can, so Dobbs sent Roe....back to the states.

Dobbs decision did NOT end Roe v Wade, did not say terminating a pregnancy is killing.

...they are letting the States make legislation because the supreme court, constitutionally can not....which the Supreme court wrongly did, with their roe v wade decision decades back, allegedly.

Roe v wade was a bad decision, only because the SC decision overstepped their bounds and made a national LAW without Congress making it law..

Congress can pass an abortion ban....or the congress can pass a law that abortion is legal up to a certain date of pregnancy.....

Judicial Branch's Checks on the Legislative Branch:

• Judicial review: Federal courts, including the Supreme Court, have the power to declare laws passed by Congress unconstitutional, thereby invalidating them.
• Interpretation of laws: The judiciary interprets the laws passed by Congress, determining their application and scope.

Why Congress Can’t Overturn a Federal Court Decision​

Congress cannot directly overturn a federal court decision because of the separation of powers and the system of checks and balances established by the Constitution. Federal courts, including the Supreme Court, have the authority to interpret the law and the Constitution. Once a court has made a ruling, Congress cannot simply reverse that decision.

Congress can respond to court decisions by passing new legislation or amending existing laws. Provided, of course, that these changes are constitutional.

The key sentence in your screed is this one:

Provided, of course, that these changes are constitutional.

I have posted this from Dobbs multiple times and you commies just can't seem to get it through your thick heads. This is from page 85 of the linked PDF. Stop buying into kneepads propaganda, this is your new reality.

VI​

We must now decide what standard will govern if state abortion regulations undergo constitutional challenge and whether the law before us satisfies the appropriate standard.

A ​

Under our precedents, rational-basis review is the appropriate standard for such challenges. As we have explained, procuring an abortion is not a fundamental constitutional right because such a right has no basis in the Constitution’s text or in our Nation’s history. See supra, at 8–39.It follows that the States may regulate abortion for legitimate reasons, and when such regulations are challenged under the Constitution, courts cannot “substitute their social and economic beliefs for the judgment of legislative bodies.”

https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/19-1392_6j37.pdf

The court made it clear there is no constitutional basis for any federal law to be passed, that would reimpose abortion on the nation. Congress can only pass laws on topics for which the Constitution grants them authority, and Dobbs makes it clear, they have no such authority.

Two impeachments and driving the country into the ground shows the opposite.

Two that were never ratified as an impeachment because a part 2 is required which ignorant or trolling lib loons blindly ignore

 

[martybegan]

FYI- The congress has power to make abortion law, according to the Supreme court.

Sending Roe back to the states was simply giving republican legislatures ability to ban or greatly restrict abortion, against the will of their citizens....as they did, in 20 states so far.

Their citizens vote for the representatives that express their will.

As usual a progressive speaking for others with no warrant to do so.

 

[Care4all]

Well Marty, the representatives obviously did NOT express the people's will...thus the referendums overwhelming wins for the citizens vs.their legislators not representing them, but solely themselves.

You were told that in 2020, eh?

Was the person who told you that found in a mirror?

That's the trial phase. As people who took 10th grade civics know.

Trump was impeached twice.

Most impeached rapist ever.

More horseshit populism from the anti choice con artists.

You frauds don't want the people to decide. That's why you're getting in in the way of state referendums on abortion.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Amen! I totally agree! What do you think?

Let’s hope so.

Unfortunately, there’s a great deal of racism, bigotry, misogyny, and hate in support of Trump.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Crawling over broker glass unarmed gets you murdered
Ask Babbitts family because you can’t ask her.

Babbitt was a rightwing domestic terrorist lawfully killed while committing her act of domestic terrorism.

The right’s deification of violent domestic terrorists comes as no surprise; Babbitt has only herself to blame.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

I think that’s another reason why we need to revoke the 19th Amendment ASAP

And here’s an example of that rightwing misogyny and hate.

 

[Anathema]

And here’s an example of that rightwing misogyny and hate.

Have I ever claimed to be or believe anything different than what you’ve pointed out? I’m openly sexist, racist, nationalist, isolationist and an Ultra-Conservative Authoritarian. I make no bones about it.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

There is a lot of talk about Trump "disrespecting" women, both in this campaign and historically.

But wait. Which party is trying to exploit wimmins' ignorance about abortion law? Literate Americans are familiar with the Dobbs Supreme Court decision that clearly and emphatically states that abortion is a matter for the individual states to govern. The Federal government - neither the President nor Congress - have the Constitutional power to make abortion policy.

The Democrats assume that women are too stupid to know the Constitutional reality.

Isn't that a bit disrespectful?

No.

There's a lot of talk about Trump disrespecting women because that’s exactly what he does.

And no one buys the right’s dishonest ‘let the states decide’ lie; overturning Roe was about more government at the expense of individual liberty, it was about compelling conformity and punishing dissent, and it was about forcing women to give birth against their will through force of law with reckless, irresponsible abortion bans that jeopardize the health and lives of women.

So indeed, women are very much motivated by the Republican assault on the reproductive autonomy and right to privacy of every American.

Correct.

The right to privacy and reproductive autonomy remains very much intact – that wasn’t changed with Dobbs.
