Wisconsin Supreme Court strikes down state’s 1849 abortion ban

The Wisconsin Supreme Court has struck down the state’s 176-year-old abortion ban. The court’s liberal majority ruled 4-3 on Wednesday that the ban is no longer valid because newer abortion restrictions superseded it. State lawmakers adopted the total ban in 1849. It was in effect until 1973, when the U.S. Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion nullified it, and was never repealed. Conservatives argued that the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2022 decision overturning Roe reactivated the prohibition. Democratic Attorney General Josh Kaul sued, arguing that a 1985 state law that prohibits abortions after viability essentially repealed the ban.

TL;DR:

Musk, in response to the millions of people at more than 1,400 "Hands Off!" protests last weekend:

The problem is the puppetmasters, not the puppets, as the latter have no idea why they are even there.

His estranged daughter Vivian Jenna Wilson:

“The protesters are being paid” A: No, obviously. B: Conservative voters in Wisconsin were being paid with the chance for a million dollars and then STILL lost. By a lot. What’s your excuse?

Impeachment is STILL an option.

Maybe not over the tariffs [1] per se. But absolutely because the insane stink of this may be the smelling salts some GOP holdouts need to stop looking the other way on the felon's MANY impeachable crimes, not wanting the smell to rub off.

Plus the outcomes of the Wisconsin and Florida votes [2] could give them hope a primary threat can be beat. And they might FINALLY feel their greatest security is not as Friends of The Felon. Even though Dems lost the special elections, it was not by much. The GOP needs to read the room.

And the Dems need to throw them a lifeline if they try to act sanely. It would be terrible to lose democracy over a gripe about a few individuals who took way too long to see reason but finally did, and angry Dems thinking it was more important to see that injustice righted than Democracy saved. Politics is messy, and right now it matters to save the Constitution.

Well, not that I think impeaching the felon would put the Constitution in the clear. Vance is still a VERY dangerous guy [3] who wants an empire, not a republic. But one problem at a time.

It's really time for an impeachment.

Or even use of the 25th amendment, though on different grounds. The fact that he launched a trade war with penguins is one. [4] The biz about tariffs on smuggled fentanyl is another. [5]

Trump gambles it all on global tariffs he's wanted for decades

The president acknowledged that he will face pushback from some, but he urged Americans to trust his instincts.
