Former SCOTUS clerk texts me: "That went about as badly for the pro-abortion side as it could reasonably have been expected to go." He's right. No missteps on pro-life side; no worrying lines of questions from the conservative justices; Kagan surprisingly quiet.

If Roe is finally overturned, that isn't the end of the pro-life movement, but the beginning of a new stage. Time to pass laws to protect babies, craft pro-family policies, build support systems for women. So much of this already exists, and now is the time to take to next level.

Oh good grief, Sotomayor playing the "brain death" card now. There is no dispute about whether or not an unborn the baby is in fact a baby, a living human being. It's not a debate about when the baby is viable outside a womb, it's a question about whether the baby's life matters

People keep saying the biggest problem with yesterday's ruling is the violation of separation of powers, or that it was legislating from the bench. Those are problems. But not the biggest. The biggest problem is that the Court has imposed a harmful gender ideology on the nation.

Twenty week ultrasound this morning. Ten fingers, ten toes, and a beautiful heartbeat. Baby Anderson due to arrive late September. Life is a gift.
