129. Alito disagreed on that point: "It is settled law"
Alito is not a "strict constructionist" he is a rightwing corporatist shithead who has ruled arbitrarily and without regard for accepted interpretations of the constitution.

Roe will not be directly overturned, it will be slowly buried under a series of incremental decisions that will diminish its relevance to meaninglessness.

The new gang of four will support the assertion of dictatorial authority. Alito made it clear that he will support this, I rather doubt that Scalia, Thomas and Rogers won't go along. Only Kennedy stands in the way and nobody knows how or why he votes for anything.

Your blithe optimism is entirely at odds with the last six years of the history of the end of the republic.
