Would be interesting to see where the Supreme Court goes with this. It's blatantly unconstitutional to regulate interstate travel in this way, but who knows with this Supreme Court.

Republicans in Mississippi, Alabama, and Oklahoma have introduced similar legislation, while Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall has suggested states can restrict pregnant residents’ travel.

Let's just put pregnant women in prison, right? If you didn't want to go to PRISON you should have KEPT YOUR LEGS SHUT

... who knows with this Supreme Court.

I think we all know.

Leading up to the abortion turnover the Court made loads of "liberal" decisions. I bookmarked them to track. After, yeah, not so much. TBH, I quit tracking so not sure what's happened since.

The problem is that on rare occasion a couple of the conservatives remember they're supposed to pretend to care about the Constitution.

Just often enough to make it a question for these obvious violations

People will say you're overreacting, but that's literally the next step from Herr President's playbook. The lebensborn program is likely to experience some rebirth, if you will.
