    How nice of them. A woman is having a miscarriage and needs a D+C to be sure it’s complete or she may become septic and die and they ‘allow’ that. How kind. And they punted it so as to be sure the next time the woman dies.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The Supreme Court formally dismissed an appeal over Idaho’s strict abortion ban on Thursday, blocking enforcement of the state’s law a day after the opinion was inadvertently posted on the court’s website in an astonishing departure from its highly controlled protocols.

    The Biden administration argued that a federal law required hospitals to also provide abortions in cases where the health of a pregnant woman is at stake.

    The unsigned opinion drew a flurry of concurrences from conservative and liberal justices, who formed an unusual alliance to dismiss the case and temporarily block enforcement of Idaho’s strict ban.

    Though the decision was technically a loss for Idaho, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson stressed in a partial dissent that the potential impact is likely to be short-lived.

    The decision sweeps abortion off the Supreme Court’s docket in the middle of a highly contested presidential election, even though the issue is almost certain to return to the justices.

    Almost as notable as the Idaho decision itself was the fact that the public received an early glimpse of the outcome when a version of the opinion was inadvertently posted online briefly.
