We all knew that the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade wasn’t going to be the end of it … abortion is a sacrament to Democrats, and they’re bound and determined to make sure any woman can have an abortion any time she wants, even if it means opening abortion clinics in national parks and other federal lands. We thought Attorney General Merrick Garland was laser-focused on January 6, but he’s made time to file a lawsuit against the state of Idaho over its abortion laws.

REPORTER: "What's the point of the Supreme Court if DOJ is going to go around and do these kinds of things? Will there be other states like this?"

The Idaho law does not prohibit emergency medical services to ensure the safety and health of the pregnant women. The example he gives would not be illegal.

This is a complete lie. A miscarriage is not an abortion nor has it ever been an abortion. The baby has to be alive in order for it to be an abortion. In a miscarriage the baby is dead, you cannot abort a dead baby.

Supremacy clause only applies when the law in question is explicitly an enumerated power. Since the federal government has taken on SO much beyond its scope, to assume federal supremacy is naive and silly.

This is complete political BS and corruption. There is no such law in Idaho.

Apparently, they didn't get the memo that it isn't the federal governments issue anymore.

Merrick Garland is that guy at work who never does any of the real work, but always finds some dumb shit to do to make it look like he's busy, and then complains about how overworked he is.

That’s really well said.
Garland is as extreme as they come but loves to play dumb.

Also well said.
This guy is a first class loser just like the rest of the Biden administration

So oily

This won’t be the Justice Department’s first lawsuit, but it will be fun to see it end up in front of SCOTUS again.
