SCOTUS: Clarence Thomas cherry picking again!

Following the SCOTUS ruling overturning Roe v Wade.
Clarence Thomas is now talking about overturning precedents on contraception & LGBTQ rights.
How ironic that he was silent on interracial marriage. The last thing he wants is his own marriage to an inserrectionist to become invalid, since he is in an interracial marriage he leaves that one alone!

The "Court" is just making it up as it goes along.

THE HYPOCRISY IS STAGGERING!

What a POS that so called "man" is.

The funniest thing about this is that the rest of 'em could do it anyway if they want. His colleagues could literally vote to revoke his marriage in front of him and there's nothing he could do about it 😂
Justice Thomas doesn't seem to realize that by "revisiting" one SCOTUS decision, he opens them ALL up to "revisiting" including this abortion decision and all his favorite gun decisions.

SCOTUS has had a longstanding policy of [i]'stare decisis'[/i] meaning later courts would respect the decisions of earlier courts - they might modify them, but willy-nilly reversing other SCOTUS decisions was off the table. You wanna reverse Dredd Scott? Pass a new law, or better, an amendment. This activist court has overridden 200 years of SCOTUS history, to the great future detriment of SCOTUS.

@ElwoodBlues the court (to be fair) has long reversed decisions when it felt the original one was wrong. And that's good otherwise segregation, bans on same sex marriage (indeed same sex sex) and limited working hours laws, would still be the order of the day...
@LiteralElite Still, they have the doctrine of stare decisis for a good reason.
The fact that they lied during their confirmation is unbelievable. BUT it doesn't matter because the Democrats never seem to fight back. The Democrats akways look weak. Joe certainly doesn't help on the front. "Opps I've fallen and I can't get up."

send them some. I already have.

a nice gift wrapped box that say if women aren't entitled to privacy our government shouldn't have ANY right to any either and how Ironic it was that those hypocritical pieces of shit were upset about the Leaker while trying to axe a woman' right to privacy between her and her doctor.

Leak it all, leak and leak and leak and leak until there's no privacy left on that god forsaken court. complete transparency should be FORCED down their UNWILLING throats.

Simple. Elect a Democratic majority. Ds aren't bent on taking away your rights, that includes the gun nuts.

I try to imagine what 50 states with different interpretations of what would be illegal, (as examples only) after 2 weeks, 10, 11 ? Pregnant women are pregnant no matter which state they live in and I don't think that will ever change. Anything is possible though
We hear news about Justice Thomas' wife Ginni making phone calls to GOP lawmakers to 'back trump harder etc.', and she is being subpoenaed. Then on Thursday the J6 Committee exposes some very devastating evidence about trump pressuring the DOJ. Friday Roe v Wade is overturned. Coincidence?
Nothing "political" going on, and the court is the highest judicial review appointed by people who know how to manipulate structures.

The court throwing out stare decisis could result in the democrats expanding the court to bring back some kind of balance.
Americans don't have access to free contraception even,

Thomas is a moron. Scalia kept this oaf in check, but now the guardrails are off. He’s a right wing porn addicted loon.

RIP precedent

It's clear now that SCOTUS is and will always be just another partisan branch of government, and you cannot rely on whatever is law today still being law after another election

There are no constants in US life, everything shifts with whoever is in power in any given year or decade or generation. A right will be reversed tomorrow, and the reversal will be reversed in a decade, and so forth. Enjoy a right while you have it. Rights don't come from the sky, they come from whichever humans have power at the moment.

It's all propaganda.
They're using this to rile people up.
And they are winning.🙂

@Zonuss the supreme court sure is good at propagandizing against itself.

Don't look now, but the mysterious "they" strikes again.

Who the F is "they" @Zonuss ?

Wait a moment. If this is true, he is happily alone in his opinion.
