US Supreme Court to overturn Roe vs Wade

Well it's a great way to influence the population.

If we're talking conspiracies and correlations, let's bring up the fact this decision to ban abortions comes at a time when the US has suffered a major pandemic and lost nearly 1 million people. It almost seems like an effort to stabilize the economy or something. I don't think it would have that effect mind you.

“If this leaked draft opinion is the final decision and this reporting is accurate, it would be completely inconsistent with what Justice Gorsuch and Justice Kavanaugh said in their hearings and in our meetings in my office.” - Sen. Collins.

The stage might be set to call up Gorsuch and Kavanaugh to answer questions related to possible Perjury.

I think we have to call it up as the Fallacy-Fallacy if we're sweeping all talk of Racism or having Racist Thoughts under the rug as "ad hominem" - ordinarily, ad hominems are best avoided, on the subject of racism, it cannot be avoided, it is often inexorable from the topic.

That may be their nightly viewership. That may not include readership, or listenership where it pertains to their own daylighting work as Radio hosts, or as authors of numerous online articles or even as guests on other shows, promulgating their race theories. I think you will find many conservatives who come about to discuss the media, are always quick to point out the prominence of Fox News in their media bubble though (it is a great source of pride for the conservative movement that they get better rating than CNN, etc), and even with personal incredulity you will still find readily that Great Replacement Theory, as propagandized heavily by these prominent outlets at the center of the Republican Party, is very alive and well in the US political zeitgeist.

Fetal Pain science varies but there's no scientific consensus. This is the position of the American College of Pediatricians, for example, but that only represents a few hundred doctors (500 estimate)

We have some groups saying 25 weeks, some say 12, etc. etc. based on this or that criteria, eg. this paper, cited 35 times in academia (it's fuzzy) itself mentions that many scientists argue after 24 weeks for example because of cognitive development

It's a 'whatever you feel like' in politics terms.

Chief Justice has confirmed the authenticity of the leaked draft

GOP Senator Murkowski says the decision undermines her faith in the Court

“Roe is still the law of the land. We don’t know the direction that this decision may ultimately take, but if it goes in the direction that this leaked copy has indicated I will just tell you that it, it, it rocks my confidence in the court right now.”

Collins and Murkowski are often derided as "RINOs" by conservatives ("Republican, in Name Only") because they are much more centrist than their colleagues, similar situation as Senator Joe Manchin. So, their statements won't carry too much immediate weight, but it is indicative that the GOP may face glaring unity problems coming into the midterms. Democrats, meanwhile and speaking of Manchin, may face their own midterm issues as they struggle to demonstrate legislative ability: the politics will focus on their ability to go nuclear on a filibuster to codify Roe vs Wade in US law. Manchin will have none of it, nor will several other Senators who see themselves, and the filibuster as 'too important.' It certainly does make them the center of attention and their pocket books love it.

If Dems make the election about Republicans blocking them at each and every turn, that will only help Republicans, who campaign on blocking Democrats at each and every turn, and their "radical socialist marxist agenda." Words right out of my Congressman's mouth, too. Democrats would be freely advertising to Republican voters that, what they're doing works.

If however the midterms become a mandate itself on abortion access in the United States, we may see a very different Congress seated in 2023.
