By Dave Andrusko “Men Have a Lot to Lose When Roe Falls,” is a “guest essay” by Dr. Andréa Becker that appeared in the New York Times. She tells us that most of the focus on what would happen should Roe be overturned is on “those who can become pregnant.” What has “research” told us …

By Dave Andrusko Imagine flipping the argument that we must retain Roe because of precedent (stare decisis) on its head. That’s exactly what Adam J. White does in Monday’s Wall Street Journal. White assures us that “precedent, or stare decisis, is fundamental to our constitutional system.”  Which is why a decision as poorly reasoned as is Roe is …

By Dave Andrusko No surprise that the Abortion Industry is trying to argue that if Roe v. Wade is overturned, other privacy rights will be lost as well. However, this was specifically addressed in Justice Samuel Alito’s draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health, which was leaked to Politico. First, the reason why “Roe …

By Cassy Fiano-Chesser  With the Supreme Court seemingly set to overturn Roe v. Wade, many abortion supporters are scared and angry. Protests and marches are being held across the country.

By Dave Andrusko The pro-abortion response to Justice Samuel Alito’s opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson’s Women Health, leaked on May 2nd to Politico, is the classic example of misdirection. Not only is his draft opinion  said to “constitute an acidic and unflinching repudiation of reproductive rights,” Justice Alito is also criticized for having “cherry-picked from …

By Dave Andrusko  Like most of you, I’ve read a fair amount of the gazillion criticisms of Justice Samuel Alito’s draft opinion which call for Roe and Casey to be overturned. Predictably, for the most part, they are more speed than altitude, more heat than light. But Jonathan Capehart’s “The other scary thing about Alito’s …

Samuel Alito’s opinion overturning Roe is reportedly still the only draft that has been circulated among the justices. By Calvin Freiburger WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Supreme Court is slated to release an unspecified number of rulings this coming Monday, May 16, though it is unknown whether a long-awaited ruling on the notorious abortion precedent Roe …

Dissents written by Justice Byron White and Justice William Rehnquist sound perfectly contemporary  By Michael Cook  Much of the fiery commentary on the leak of a draft opinion on Roe v. Wade last week contended that the Court had embarked on a radical path which ignores the lived reality of five decades of abortion rights. …

By Dave Andrusko As always, but especially now that a leaked draft indicates that a majority of the Supreme Court is ready to overturn Roe, our benighted opposition insists it is pro-lifers who are thwarting democracy. Which is truly odd since it is pro-lifers who long insisted that the wisest course is to return the …

By Dave Andrusko Peggy Noonan’s “The End of Roe v. Wade Will Be Good for America” preliminarily assumes that the leaked first draft of Justice Samuel Alito’s opinion on Mississippi‘s abortion law is what the final version will essentially look like: Roe (and Casey) are overturned!  As many have pointed out, that may or may …

By Peter Pinedo, Texas Right to Life  Democrats and anti-Life activists have fallen into a rage across the country. Since a leaked document suggested that the Supreme Court will overturn Roe v. Wade, leftists have lost their minds. The past couple of days have exposed the absolute depravity and insanity of the left’s full embrace of …

By Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ) The leak of Justice Alito’s February draft opinion on Dobbs is an egregious abuse of process and trust.  That said, the U.S. Supreme Court seems poised to take a powerful step towards empowering elected representatives to protect the weakest and most vulnerable.
