More reprieve than victory. Court ruled on narrow standings. To overturn a law, plaintiff must have standing by showing they were harmed. Case brought by handful of far right all male so far as I know doctors who claimed standing by saying when women get abortions they are deprived of not of delivering our babies. Cue violins. Court anti woman majority made it clear they are open to better challenge.

If enough people stop encouraging this garbage mirage of a choice, the sooner this will fall. It's like asking the Iranian people why they don't vote. It's a ruse. The sooner you understand that and stop thumbing your nose at people the sooner we can unite and take on this wicked system.
The more people who don't vote or vote for a candidate without a chance the more power the parties have. That's what the Republicans are counting on..
