Quite a huge can of worms the partisan nutjobs on the SCOTUS opened up, isn’t it?

The only solace is that these nuts are coming out of the woodwork because the US is becoming a vastly more liberal, secular society as we grow up. Those who would abuse Iron Age fairytales for power in the US are losing their influence, and they know it.

This just shows how intolerant the religious right actually is. Ironically they’re going to end up increasing the number of abortions by doing stuff like this. That’s what happens when women don’t have access to birth control. Unfortunately without the supreme court on the side of the constitution, progress is often much harder to achieve.

A seriously ill teenager can be treated with blood products even though his mother is unable to consent because of her religious beliefs, a High Court judge has ruled.
Mr Justice Cobb said the 13-year-old boy’s mother was a Jehovah’s Witness and was not ”happy”.
But the judge gave medics permission to administer ”plasma exchange treatment” after concluding that without it the youngster’s prospects of recovery were slight.

Detroit Local Powers First EV Charging Road in North America The road, about a mile from Local 58's hall, uses rubber-coated copper inductive-charging coils buried under the asphalt that transfer power to a receiver pad attached to a car's underbelly, much like how a phone can be charged wirelessly. ...
