@macfarlanenews.bsky.social NEW: Rep Joe Morelle (D-NY) “I will introduce a constitutional amendment to reverse SCOTUS’ harmful decision and ensure that no president is above the law. This amendment will do what SCOTUS failed to do—prioritize our democracy”

Yup, they had their chances in 2009, 2010, 2021, and 2022. When they did not do it after Dobbs in 2022, the goose was cooked. Abortion rights are gone for a long, long time, and more rights will be stripped gradually. That is if Biden is re-elected. If not, in 2025-26.

A darkly amusing possibility is the dems win big in the elections and control congress and the presidency. And then they repeat Biden's first term. In the first half - they don't do anything. In the second half - they can't do anything.

Roberts: "So, yeah, it's the justices' job to call balls and strikes..." A very long pause. "Like it's the Twilight Zone, baby!" The GOP justices all laugh. The dem justices stare at him in a sharply unworded concurrence.
