Release Of Dobbs Decision

The discussion centers on Molly Hemingway’s book, which reveals that Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Breyer delayed the release of the Dobbs decision, grading it a “C” despite it being ready for months. This delay posed security risks as abortion supporters might target justices. Justice Alito’s unusual footnote in the Calais decision suggests a similar slow-walking, potentially affecting 2026 midterm elections. The conversation also touches on the California gubernatorial primary, highlighting the jungle primary system and the rise of controversial figures like Tom Steyer, who is criticized for his progressive policies and significant financial backing.
