A leaked video appears to show Republican officials at a meeting held by an anti-abortion group pushing for women to be prosecuted for having abortions.
The Catholic Church condemned the ruling by the Supreme Court.[141] Blackmun wrote in his diary, “Abortion flak—3 Cardinals—Vatican—Rochester wires!”[141]
John Cardinal Krol, the archbishop of Philadelphia who was also the president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and Terence Cardinal Cooke, the archbishop of New York, both issued statements condemning the ruling.[175] Krol called the ruling “an unspeakable tragedy for this nation” that “sets in motion developments which are terrifying to contemplate.”[175] Cooke called the decision a “horrifying action” and added:[175]
How many millions of children prior to their birth will never live to see the light of today because of the shocking action of the majority of the United States Supreme Court today?[175]
Don’t apologize for Biden. He could have tried to pack the court, he could be given weekly speeches denouncing their decision, he has the IRS and FBI could have made Thomas’ and Alito’s life a living hell with daily announcements of fresh bribery charges, he could pick a fight with the Catholic Church pointing out that it is a foreign power influencing the US government. Instead he went gently into that good night.
Now will I vote for him? Yes because the alternative is worse. Can I support him? Not for a second.
The president is not a dictator. It doesn’t work like that.
Also, do you really think presidents should just be able to change the size of SCOTUS whenever they want to? What if Trump gets in and decides to shrink it to only the conservatives?
I know enough about our legislature to know that they would not approve 100 SCOTUS justices. I’m not sure why you think they would allow any president to do that unless they were a rubber stamp legislature, which they are not.
Roe v. Wade fell during Biden’s presidency and the most he did was an executive order for women’s health research

how do the Republicans differ on abortion again?
Roe V Wade was overturned by Supreme Court packed by GOP and Donald Trump. Fuck off with your bullshit.

Wikipedia is now bullshit?
Trumpism was bad but so is Bidenism
Biden is clearly on record saying he agrees with the abortion ban
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_abortion
Which is… Where exactly?
Your shitty edit does not say that.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Biden#
Biden is a moderate Democrat[549] who says his positions are deeply influenced by Catholic social teaching.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_abortion
right there him agreeing with the abortion ban plain as day
Please tell me precisely how many justices Biden has appointed vs. the number of justices on the court.
he could have started nominating to expand the court

he can nominate 100 people today and make the Senate turn down every one
Which they would. So what would that accomplish?

they don’t need to approve 100 but letting 6 or 7 through is possible
