The Texas abortion ruling is another sign that Chief Justice John Roberts is struggling to steer the Supreme Court at a time when an even bigger abortion case is looming

5-4 midnight order letting Texas ban most abortions

raised new uncertainty about reproductive rights, but one point was clear: It is another sign that Chief Justice John Roberts is struggling to steer the Roberts Court at a time when an even bigger abortion case is looming. A conservative chief justice who prizes consensus and calibration in jurisprudence once again found himself out of step with five colleagues further to his right. Instead, Chief Justice Roberts landed in an increasingly familiar place on the court he leads: dissenting alongside three liberals who, often for different reasons, share his disagreement with the newly expanded conservative majority.

Its time to balance the Supreme Court , stop the filibuster, and bring integrity of character back into the halls of Congress!! This country is headed backwards into the future not forward into the future

SCOTUS statement: 'In reaching this conclusion, we stress that we do not purport to resolve definitively any jurisdictional or substantive claim in the applicants' lawsuit,' the decision said. 1 of 2

SCOTUS lost all credibility under Roberts’ watch!!

Blame it on Susan Collins who made this possible!

well when he figures out what a tax really he can have control again

SCOTUS has lost respect.

The Constitution implies that the American people are the masters of congress & the courts, yet Republicans therein continue to treat us like 2nd Hand Rose, yes, in our face, showing you, me & the world what power in the wrong hands looks like

Hold strong. If we loose this, what else is next

Admit it, the human rights of American women are much worse than those of Afghan women.

Divide the country into several units like the European Union into American Union,the current system is not working since women are being railroaded and you turn around to blame the Taliban for mistreating women.

I'm not sure we can interpret his siding with the dissent in this case as evidence he's trying to steer the Court toward sanity. He's of a like mind! His dissent here is him trying to save face, rather than a statement of principle. That's my two cents!

Old men and women and religious people always talk the talk but never walk the walk Who is going to take care of a unwonted child the government the taxpayers so they all feel righteous I also wonder if they were forced to pay for that unwanted child

Nothing short of nazi shit, someone needs to check on Texas.

The new swing his the supporters of a belief that “The role of the Court is an umpire” and a Catholic by heart

It’s Putin’s Court

Supreme Court Judges shouldn’t be steered or pressured into making decisions.

This is just sharia law with a white face 🤨

Killing unborn children is a crime ..
