Washington (CNN)Chief Justice John Roberts sided with the liberal justices on the Supreme Court on Monday to block a controversial Louisiana abortion law that critics said would have closed nearly every clinic in the state.
The 5-4 ruling is a win for supporters of abortion rights who argued that the law was not medically necessary and amounted to a veiled attempt to restrict abortion. The law barred doctors from performing the procedure unless they had admitting privileges at a nearby hospital. The majority opinion was penned by Justice Stephen Breyer, who wrote that the majority "consequently hold that the Louisiana statute is unconstitutional." Breyer added later: "The evidence also shows that opposition to abortion played a significant role in some hospitals' decisions to deny admitting privileges." The ruling continues a trend of Roberts siding with liberals in major cases. He previously has upheld the program allowing undocumented immigrants who came into the US as children to remain and sided with opinion that extended anti-discrimination protections to LGBTQ workers.

I wonder if anyone will riot, while bearing the signs “Unborn Lives Matter”.
With their victory two summers ago, Planned Parenthood got the SCOTUS seal of approval on having facilities that do not meet the standards that are required of out-patient facilities like cosmetic surgery (breast implants) and dental offices. And now, they do not even need doctors who are able to get their patients admitted into hospitals if something goes wrong with the procedure, which can feature a patient who is 13 and doesn't have parental consent, and is now bleeding out, and cannot be admitted into a hospital by the doctor.
How is this better "healthcare for women"? They are literally fighting to ensure lower and lower standards of care with every decision.
I fully believe this happens intentionally, supposedly conservative presidents nominate liberals partially to keep the issue in play but also because they are more scared of being judged by the media than being judged by God. Even ones like W who practically used the name of Jesus as a campaign slogan.
If he had any self-respect or sincere faith he should be denouncing Roberts instead of Trump.
Yep, the court is still liberal... RGB just keeps hanging on.
I was calling this entire era “the Hell Epoque” when GWB was in his second term.
Ha. Never mind. That was a sardonic question.
Cite? Would be useful information
God will not be mocked. America does not appear in Revelations. Now it is obvious why.
Please continue this website. Please do not depart this mortal coil.
This is the one sane island in a sea of utter insanity.
My guess is........ The Liberals got the goods on Roberts, likely a video, maybe something worse. Whatever, at this point he’s their lap-dog!
A true designation!
Pro-lifers have said for years ,the abortion movement, especially PP wants to get rid of blacks...Then the court does a law like this that puts BLACK WOMEN’S HEALTH AT RISK ,and pro-lifers are shocked......
THEY WANT TO GET RID OF BLACKS...IF NO HOSPITAL PRIVILEGES,THE WOMAN MIGHT DIE..IT’S A TWO-FER FOR THE PRO-ABORTS.......
“controversial” = the pinkos don’t like it
I honestly cannot remember.
Agreed
which is why we need to give Trump a second term.
Sadly you are correct. America will be judged. I can only pray for God’s mercy on those of us who tried to stand against it.
Not his kids, they are grown. Not his gayness, that's 'normalized'.
Child molestation or any other significant felonies, are the only things left on the table.
If not, then Sodom and Gomorrah are owed an apology.
