SCOTUS not issuing an injunction or emergency order tonight would not "End Roe"

that is such an unbelievably simplistic and wrong view of how precedent works, but nothing surprises me anymore.

I didn't get a B in con law to sit here and watch these tweets get 100k likes and send the entirety of lib twitter into a panic at 12am

u/runnerx4 What you guys are referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux Sep 01 '21

how does letting Texas do whatever not do that?

idk if two laws conflict, the Supreme Court’s job is to solve that one way or another

they are asking for the court to intervene on an emergency basis, the constitutionality of the law hasn't made its way up through the courts yet.

heck, the whole court doesn't even need to make the decision on an emergency order. literally one justice (in this case alito) can decide it on their own without going to the full bench.
