When are they supposed to officially release the decision?

Usually in the summer months
Wow, was thinking today or this week. That's a long time to REEEEEEEE before the official word comes out.
Also a long time to try and intimidate just one judge to change their opinion. Less likely this would have leaked if the current score wasn't 5-4.
I assume that Roberts not writing this opinion means he was not in the majority. Alito, Trump appointees and Thomas are the 5.
I started a thread when the leak came out that Roberts was not authoring the opinion that it was likely a 5-4 decision and Roberts was not in the majority. That would mean Thomas as the senior justice in the majority assigning who would write for the majority. I thought Thomas would want it for himself so surprised it was Alito.
Not that the Dems wouldn't pass up a chance to smear any judge they can't control, but do you think the brouhaha about Thomas' wife had anything to do with this upcoming decision?

I can't imagine it did, as they know how Thomas will vote. I just assumed they wanted to crush the Thomas family.
Not really. I actually think Politico had this back in February and sat on it for awhile. Since this was a draft, expect other drafts were circulating at the same time. Have to wonder why those were not leaked by the same person?
Does the fact that this is an Alito first draft indicate that he would be writing the final opinion? I'm not sure how the bread is baked in the process - I was looking at this first draft as Alito's take, and that other justices might be preparing drafts of their own to circulate, discuss and decide between justices.

This is simply a procedural question for Hawg, or our other SCOTUS watchers.

We really, really don't want to admit to ourselves that, at the end of the day, abortion is as much an economic decision as it is a moral one.

makes abortion a felony
On that note, it's a felony, with potentially crippling fines and up to like 5-10 years in prison to mess with a sea turtle egg. There are super-Karens at certain beaches in Hawaii who volunteer their time to make sure you don't even get close to these awesome creatures...I had one shriek at me and my wife in Oahu on our honeymoon because she thought we might be petting one (we weren't...just admiring from a few ft away). The fact that these types of women who want to see your life ruined for messing with a turle egg are probably crying the loudest today makes me incredibly happy!

Sorry for the slight derail, but white liberals are just the ultimate losers. Pure evil. They literally value unborn turtles far more than they do unborn humans (parasites). F em all.

The wording of the draft says writing for the Court, so that means it is the majority opinion. And yes, Alito will be the author of the final majority opinion. Expect there will be some concurring opinions and dissenting opinions as well.

I could mean that he was selected (either by Roberts, or Thomas if Roberts is in the minority) to write the final opinion, or while 5 or 6 justices want to strike down Roe v. Wade (many suspect Roberts doesn't, but does want to support the Mississippi law's limits on abortions), they're all writing opinions to see which one will get the most support.

Truly, no way to know for certain unless something else leaks.

The only thing I find odd is that Thomas would give such a monumental ruling to anyone if he was the senior justice in the majority and Roberts was in the minority. I would think he would want to write it himself.

Absolutely yes. Gary Becker won a noble prize for his work in such matters.

Not a lawyer, so probably a stupid question, but could this victory be short lived if a dem wins in 2024? Assuming this is a 5-4 decision, wouldn't one more liberal judge being appointed be enough to change the law once again?

Another point, do you think this state of Texas would actually try to send a young woman to prison who for lack of a better phrase "tries the clothes hanger method" and gets found out somehow? I see them mostly going after the doctors who go against the ban, but who knows?

Get ready!!! THE FBI IS (IN) ON IT!


I don't trust the FBI to do anything honestly, or with neutrality, or in strict adherence to law.


On what grounds does the FBI have to be involved in any internal code of conduct issue of one of the three branches? Where in the constitution is it a felony to leak SCOTUS information? Or is this an open door they want to run through?
I heard a discussion earlier today on this topic.

Among others, the potential causes of action included "Interference with a Judicial Proceeding"; or, Misuse of Government information under 18 USC 641, as the clerks, as well as the justices themselves, are Government employees.

There were other possible statues discussed, but those two stood out to me.

Economics can be used as a distraction, sure. It should have also been considered prior to making the decision to have sex. For the vast majority of abortions, the ultimate decision is to accept or reject the result of decisions already made.

he really does not have a good point.

55,440 abortions were provided in Texas in 2017. I guarantee the number is significantly less in 2023, and only a small percentage of those people will go out of state for an abortion.


Thank you God
I think you mean Trump.
hopefully all 50,000 females will depart the Texas Republic and go to Colorado.


For the love of God, don't send more idiots here! We're working overtime just to manage the dumb@$$es who are screwing up this state as is!

Colorado is a wonderful state that was invaded by California for the last 30 years, and that's when it tipped blue. Lots of red counties and good folk here just trying to live around the crazies.

Send 'em to a state or place beyond recovery, like Oregon, California, or Stupid Biden's Delaware compound!

Some will go out of state, not all, but some.

Also as a percentage of the US total of which you cited for 2017, TX made up around 6% of all abortions in the US.

Clay Travis even understands ending Roe v. Wade doesn't end the vast majority of abortions.



I guess ythe only argument is if a 14% decline in abortions qualifies as "doesn't change much".

No one here thinks this will end all abortion. Try to keep up

The esteemed Biden voter from the peach state thinks it's a good point that someone said "nothing is actually going to change".

That's not a good point. It's a stupid thing to say from those trying to concise the world abortion is no big deal.

Wonder if the 120,000 plus that live due to the 14% drip will think that's a significant change

What the MSM, Dems, Libs, etc. are intentionally omitting from discussion is that the ending of RvW doesn't end all abortions. It simply transfers the decision to the states. If a state passes a law similar to Roe, nothing will change there.

True journalists would point this out. Today's media want to work people into a frenzy to accomplish a political goal.

This was going to happen in June. Most media and political talking heads had all but accepted this was going to happen.

This isn't new info, just confirmation.

Is it because it was leaked?

They'd react the same way in June.

For my part, I am surprised, not that the Mississippi statute was upheld but that both Roe and Casey were directly overruled and in quite an inflammatory manner.

Alito took a rhetorical and legal flamethrower to them.

I'd say they're communists. They use the same tactics as the Russians, labeling anyone who disagrees with them as Nazis to dehumanize them and to rationalize and legitimize attacks against them.
