Report: Justice Samuel Alito Wanted to Block Abortion Pill Because Biden Might Ignore Lower Court Ruling

Justice Samuel Alito joined Justice Clarence Thomas in voting to block the abortion pill while the case continued – or at least banning mail-order abortions so women would not or be injured during the continuation of the lawsuit.

God bless Alito and Thomas. I can’t imagine the pressure and disgust they have to live with on a daily basis.
So much for the Separation of powers and the supposed adversarial nature of government
We’re rapidly devolving into unified structure of government; AKA Socialism
