Whatever comes out from #SCOTUS today or next week, it's worth noting that, as opposed to handing the decisions down orally from the bench in front of a public audience, the Court's handing these down remotely with the public fenced off.

Texas will ban abortion from the moment of conception, with narrow exceptions. This ban goes into effect in 30 days. https://t.co/oumWWJYjBn

"With sorrow—for this Court, but more, for the many millions of American women who have today lost a fundamental constitutional protection—we dissent."
For those keeping track, Justice Alito's final Dobbs opinion looks *strikingly similar* to the February draft leaked to Politico.

A Court in a hurry is a dangerous thing for our Republic.
