Okay, John Cornyn, I'll bite (since i saw his follow up tweet where he contextualized this). You are trying to make the point that sometimes overturning precedent is a good thing. But here's the difference: When Brown overturned Plessy, it expanded rights for citizens, where previously they had been denied. When Dobbs overturned Roe, it diminished fifty years of healthcare rights...

(not to mention the many other sectors it will affect like foster care, criminal justice, domestic and other violent crime statistics).
In general, we applaud busting precedent when it means giving disenfranchised people their rights. And if you are so obtuse to not know the difference between the two examples above, or more realistically, you just don't care, then you have no business being in the Senate.

@Horrrflmlvr it's time.
@Horrrflmlvr Law is helping set up the resistance. I also know they are setting up legal help for women caught behind the wall. Let me see what else I can find out.
@Jezibaba got a question, would law say anything about people who resist the abortion ban in any way?
