At least some of the trigger bans, and the laws waiting in the wings for Dobbert raise legal issues worth pursuing -- issues not wholly foreclosed by Dobbert. Some of the inevitable litigation will do little beyond buying time for some desperate women. But that's a worthy goal.

One saving grace (no pun intended) from the praying football coach case is that, since Gorsuch just lied about the set of facts, it'll be really easy to overturn* should any coach actually do what the coach did, instead of the fantasy coach Gorsuch ruled on.

I just spoke with @ewarren, who suggested the Biden administration establish Planned Parenthood outposts on the edges of national parks.
"They could put up tents, have trained personnel -- and be there to help people who need it."
"It's time to declare a medical emergency."
