The Blue Check Hysterics are Melting Down
The Blue Check hysterics hadn’t even stopped screeching over Elon Musk buying Twitter and already they have something new to screech about.
Honestly, I haven’t seen this level of over-the-top histrionics from the Blue Check hysterics on Twitter since the wee hours of November 9, 2016.
Some activist working as a Supreme Court clerk leaked the draft of Justice Samuel Alito’s opinion on the Mississippi abortion law case last night and instantly the Blue Check hysterics screeching about Musk just days ago started screeching that abortion is about to be “overturned.”
Guys, if you’re going to start melting down about the contents of a draft opinion, perhaps you should at least be accurate about it.
If the Supreme Court rules in favor of Mississippi, it won’t “overturn abortion,” you ass cracks.
What it would do is leave abortion law in the hands of each individual state.
Some states already made abortion legal up to birth, including my garbage state of New York.
Here in New York, a doctor or midwife can be in the middle of telling the mother “Deep breath, and PUSH!” and Mom can say, “You know what? On second thought, kill it,” and it would be totally legal.
If the SCOTUS decision nullifies Roe v. Wade, it would remain totally legal in the state of New York to kill your child at any stage of pregnancy for any reason you want.
That may come as a shock to anyone who only gets their news from CNN or MSNBC, or heaven forbid the screeching Blue Check hysterics on Twitter. But there you go. Overturning Roe v. Wade wouldn’t make abortion illegal in the United States.
Governor Gavin Newsom huffily tweeted that the California legislature would amend its Constitution to make abortion legal through all three trimesters.
Does Newsom not realize he’s proving Alito’s point? An issue as politically fraught and divisive as abortion shouldn’t be decided by 9 unelected judges, but by the representatives most closely linked to the people – namely, the state legislatures.
If California lawmakers want to codify abortion in the state constitution, then they’re doing precisely what Alito said should happen.
But see, the Blue Check hysterics don’t want each state to decide. They want a one-size-fits-all federal dictate allowing unfettered abortion.
They need all control centralized.
It’s the same reason they want the United States Congress to determine the voting laws for all fifty states. It’s why they want gun laws, school curricula, health insurance requirements, and pretty much everything else decided in Washington DC.
Federalism terrifies these drama queens because it takes power out of the hands of a centralized federal government and places it where it belongs, in the hands of the people.
That is precisely why they are lying about what overturning Roe would do.
They know their rhetoric is false. They know it won’t “overturn abortion.” But they lie about it because they believe that the lie will help them maintain political power. They think there are enough slack-jawed morons out there who will believe the “overturning abortion” lie and vote Democrat in the midterms.
Of course, most of those slack-jawed morons were already planning to vote Democrat in the midterms, so I’m not entirely sure screeching inanities about the Court “overturning abortion” is going to have the effect the Blue Check hysterics desire.
And if the purpose of this strategic illegal leak is to help Democrats in November, then the leaker leaked too soon. It’s only May and they’re already working themselves into such a screaming lather, by the time November rolls around, most voters will have tuned out the screeching if for no other reason than to preserve their sanity.
There’s only so much screaming histrionics a body can take.
The other problem is, the bulk of the hysterics is coming from Twitter and the cable news networks nobody watches. Out here in the real world, life goes on. And right now, life in the real world is crippling inflation, rising consumer prices, stagnating wages, and the very real possibility of a recession making everything worse.
Compared to those real-world problems, the prospect of some states being free to limit abortion to the first trimester (which is broadly supported in polling) isn’t going to rate very high on the list of voter concerns.

The logic, if you can call it that, employed by these screeching harpies doesn’t pass muster. Killing your own unborn child, fine. Killing evil Russians to save corrupt Ukrainians (not all of them qualify), fantastic. Killing a deranged lunatic who has raped, tortured, murdered (and occasionally consumed) their victim(s), unthinkable! Unless the perp is low in melanin content, then by all means, throw the switch on Old Sparky. They attempt to justify their heinous deeds as only getting rid of a “clump of cells”, ignoring the undisputed fact that they are merely a larger clump of cells. It is ironically unfortunate that the mothers of these bloodthirsty ghouls weren’t more tuned into fetal sacrifice masquerading as “womens’ health”. Oh sorry, that should be “menstruating individuals” or “ birthing people”. As you have eloquently stated, overturning Roe v. Wade will not eliminate the blue state killing fields. This is just the latest episode of the left going apoplectic over the possibility that they may not be able to impose their evil, twisted agenda on rational, caring individuals who believe that ALL human life is sacred and a gift from the Father.
I’ve always thought that women are irresponsible gits wanting others to solve their problems. I have encountered in 66 years very few women who are not so. And I know too many women who conned their spouses into marriage by getting pregnant (because they were tired of working) and those that were not successful resorted to the abortion route with no guilt at all – is that really the world we want to live in.
We live in 2022 – NOT 1922. NOT getting pregnant is not difficult if you take some minor precautions, so anyone claiming that this decision (not really a decision) will take control away from women is silly.
Control is not getting pregnant to begin with. The Pill is cheap as are condoms along with easy access. There are lots of other ways as well, including telling your male counterpart NO. And if you get pregnant, the options of adoption or keeping the child is relatively easy – little shame involved and lots of support services. There is simply no need for abortion in 2022.
As for the rape/incest meme – the numbers are so uncertain as to be meaningless, but more important I thought we no longer punished the children for the sins of the father? The father if charged and convicted might get 15 years, and out in 7. The child is given the death penalty.
People often say my position is based on religion and therefore doesn’t count – I point out to them, what part of my position has anything to do with religion – none.
More than likely the most hysterical ones will over-react, possibly even committing violent acts (hopefully just against property and not people). If that happens that might turn off even more people or cause them to vote Republican.
It strikes me that the very same people who cursed our Viet Nam Veterans as “baby killers” are the same who now actually DO kill innocents with great enthusiasm.
Why do these Leftist Freaks get all hot and moist at the thought of murdering an infant? Creepy much?
The mystery leaker seems to be just the last in a series of attacks of SCOTUS — they tried the court packing idea, then the impeach Kavanaugh idea, then the get-rid-of Clarance Thomas idea because his wife Ginny said unacceptable things idea. I suspect the attacks on SCOTUS will continue. Get yourself some earplugs, and prepare for more screaching.

Good article.
Liberal arguments make no progress if not delivered screaming.
I can’t remember a reasonable Democrat argument for anything. It’s always a hyperventilating emotional complaint. Logic has nothing to do with it.
