LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Democrats are blasting President Joe Biden for agreeing to nominate an anti-abortion Republican to a lifetime federal judgeship in Kentucky, less than a week after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.

"The president is making a deal with the devil and once again" and "the people of Kentucky are crushed in the process," Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Charles Booker tweeted after The Courier Journal broke the story Wednesday night.

"At a time when we are fighting to protect human rights, this is a complete slap in the face."

so the second part is, what is Biden getting in return. He just didn't agree to this with McConnell.

Scotus sends back to lower courts

Young v. Hawaii — Challenges Hawaii’s ban on open carry as infringing citizens’ Second Amendment right to bear firearms outside the home.

Bianchi v. Frosh — Challenges Maryland’s “assault weapons” ban under Heller’s common use language.

ANJRPC v. Grewal — Challenges New Jersey’s “high capacity” magazine ban for violating the Second Amendment, the takings clause of the Fifth Amendment, and the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

Duncan v. Bonta — Challenges California’s “high capacity” magazine ban as violating the Second and Fifth Amendments as well as the two-step interest-balancing process explicitly repudiated in the Bruen ruling.

The Court’s disposition of these cases today represents the first significant crack in the foundation that lower courts have built in the last 14 years to prop up gun control laws while violating the Heller decision and the Second Amendment.

They're coming for your guns ecat. Better hunker down. They're getting close.

Uh, Joe Biden is anti-abortion. I dont know how Democrats dont know that. Its like the bizarro world where nutjob Republicans think Donald Trump is conservative.

"so the second part is, what is Biden getting in return. He just didn't agree to this with McConnell."

The main reason I posted that was b/c of the Metzger-kind judge...

I saw that independent article where he was quoted as saying a woman didn't have a right to end a life thru abortion back in the 80's.

Hedge just schooled you yesterday about how quickly you've changed your stance on things.

I didn't know we were such a major exporter of blood. So much so that 2.5% of all our exports is blood.
