Clarence Thomas, Supreme Court Justice was sworn into office on October 23, 1991. After the passing of Chief Justice Antonin Scalia in 1996, Clarence Thomas would not be able to ask questions on the bench for 10 years. He was then able to return to the Court’s first case.
Thomas is still measured but has often taken lawyers to the mat when necessary. Wednesday morning’s oral arguments in the Mississippi abortion case — that threatens to weaken Roe v. Wade if not overturn it — provided Justice Thomas the perfect opportunity to do just that, with a round of tough questions for the “pro-choice” lawyers.
Justice Thomas wants to know on what the right to abortion is constitutionally basedhttps://t.co/V952hLhhEi

Here’s a perfect example.
Justice Thomas: Can a mother ingest drugs or harm an unborn child? Is the state allowed to bring against the mother child neglect charges?
Pro-abortion attorney Rikelman: That’s not what this case is about, but a woman has a right to make choices about her body.
Thomas: 1, Rikelman: 0.
Justice Thomas: Does a mother have a right to ingest drugs and harm a previable baby? Can the state bring child neglect charges against the mother?
Rikelman, a pro-abortion lawyer: This is not the case. However, a woman does have the right to choose her own body. https://t.co/ENAWSu1Jpo

Thomas later asked:
“Would you specifically tell me, specifically state what the right is, is it specifically abortion? Does it? A liberty? It is freedom? It is autonomy or liberty? Is it privacy?”
Jack Posobiec, the senior editor at Human Events, weighed in on Thomas’s performance, as well.
Thomas reels them in right now
He’s asking them to tell him where any of this is written in the Constitution
Abortion Beckys are flailing about
They know there is no textual basis for Roe v Wade
Thomas is reeling them in now
He wants them to point him in the right direction about where this information is found within the Constitution.
They are fumbling about with Abortion Beckys
They understand that Roe V Wade is not supported by any textual evidence

As Election Wizard saw it, there were two “incredible moments” during today’s oral arguments.
The Supreme Court of Appeals on Abortion has recorded two amazing moments from today’s oral argument.
1) Justice Thomas’ brilliant questioning about child neglect that tripped up the pro-abortion lawyers.
2) Justice Sotomayor’s bizarre remark that evidence of fetal pain is not proof of life.
Sotomayor is so hypocritically left-leaning
Here we are. As reported by The Washington Post Wednesday afternoon, “the [f]ate of Roe v. Wade is in the hands of” the Court following a “spirited day of debate.”
The Court, suggested The Post, “signaled that it is on the verge of a major shift in its abortion jurisprudence after hearing nearly two hours of arguments from attorneys for Mississippi, an abortion provider from the state, and the Biden administration.”
It’s a fact that you have to give credit to the Democrats.
Despite controlling both chambers of Congress, the White House, and the “mainstream” media, things aren’t exactly going all that swimmingly on their side of the tracks. Crisis after self-inflicted crisis, several federal courts effectively blocking Biden’s unconstitutional vaccine mandates across the country, and now a strong possibility that the liberal abortion mantra Roe v. Wade might very well get its wings clipped or “worse,” I’m honestly hard-pressed to come up with a single major area where things are on the right track for the left.
Pity, ain’t it?
So, let’s go, Brandon! Keep up the great work!
