Curious, innit, that both Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh would vote to overturn Roe.

I find nothing in either man’s biography that would lead me to believe that they ought to recuse themselves from ruling on women’s reproductive rights and women’s rights to control their own bodies.

But The Black List had a bizarre story about abortion rights last night. These ultra-conservative men in government or conservative media were being kidnapped, held for several months, only to discover that they had a uterus implanted in them.

Thought-provoking story.
