As a reminder, I have a friend whom I call “Zen Master” who is placed within the judicial system and, more importantly, seems to have insane predictive skills. In the past he has not only told me which justice Trump would nominate, but whether they would be confirmed and even on what date. (He missed the Kavanaugh date by a week because of the last minute Balless Edsel monkey wrench against Judge K, but not too shabby).
So as I mentioned the other day, Zen Master thinks the Court will overturn Roe on a 6:3 vote. He said Roberts might look for an out, but there wasn’t one; but in any event he seems confident that Judge K and ACB will both hold their ground for at least a 5-4 decision.
This brought out naturally some of the doom-and-gloomers who thought Roberts would compromise, or water down the ruling.
That seemed an even more likely possibility when I heard from my friend, HH, who said Roberts would join the majority because if he was on the losing side, Clarence Thomas as senior justice would write the ruling and it would be much “tougher.” So, HH thought, Roberts would join the majority and as Chief Justice he would write the opinion and, in HH’s view, “limit the damage.”
Zen Master disagreed. Overturning Roe he reminds us, is the “damage.” As to a “middle ground” or compromise, Zen Master sees none. “If you remove the viability standard, what do you have? Anything you come up with would be equally problematic.”
After this exchange, I am confident that Roberts will join the majority and overturn Roe. The exact machinery for this will de facto revert to Congress to make new law, then to governors and states to implement it.
This highlights a very important political issue: The GOP must win, and dominate, the 2022 midterms, and must have enough margin in the Senate to overcome obstructionist anal-polyps such as Mitt Romney (Minion) and Susan (Tom) Collins.
Moreover, we need to keep all red states with red governors and flip some of the blue state governor’s races. There is a lot of time to do this.
As you know my own expectation is that the Demented Perv will continue to try to destroy America; continue to turn American against him and the DemoKKKrats; and continue to take a sand-blaster to the DemoKKKrat brand. As I said the other day, we need to make sure he doesn’t crater too fast for this very purpose. If he is still in office in November 2022, the results will be much more favorable for the GOP than if anyone else—-even if they are ostensibly “worse” than the Rutabaga—-is in office because there will be a grace period in which Americans want to give the new guy/gal/cisgendered dorksporkel a chance.
This is why setting up the “Heartbeat” laws and other solid pro-life laws in the states was so important. There will be far less to do: the machinery is in place.
The other thing to watch for, however, is that if/whcn Roe is overturned America will witness the most incredible outpouring of God’s blessings since 1776. We will not be able to keep up with the flow of blessings that will overtake the red states. I believe somehow the blue states will not be a part of this. I think they will, as the Bible says, be handed over to their evil designs.
This will have the effect of further polarizing the the country. Kollyfornia and New Yorkistan will continue their decline. Chicago-infested Illinois will be mired in corruption, crime, and death. Biteme will be utterly incapacitated and unable to do anything to those red states that follow through with the legislation.
The justices have actually already made up their minds and voted. While once in a blue moon a justice will change his mind between the initial straw vote and the final written opinion (which Roberts himself once did), I believe Roe is already in the grave. It’s just a matter of throwing on the dirt.
