Blabbing during oral arguments of the Mississippi abortion case being heard that threatens our access to health care.

We already know what happens when it is not legal. Women die of illegal abortions.

Roe v Wade is at risk and with a 6-3 court it is grave.

as to who "Thomas" even was, let along what he was talking about. Of course I care about Roe v. Wade but I also like to know what a post is actually about.

It was true in the past that he never said anything. But he's the senior member of the Court now and as such gets to be the first one to ask a question. Which he usually does, although its often a nothing burger question.
