Why do people bother tweeting hypocritical "gotchas" when it comes to Republicans.

They're aware. It's about winning.

They. Do. Not. Give. A. ####.

It's such an impotent response.

Oh I don't know, Democratic leadership seems to be taking pretty decisive action in response:

I saw this somewhere else and thought this was for the gun bill? Not a response to Supreme Court decision?

I’m not referring to that. This move is wildly unpopular. Do you not think it will influence many voters?

Polls seem to indicate that a majority of people support the right to an abortion, but is that enough to vote for a (perceived or actual) do-nothing Congressman?

Oh, maybe? I didn't look into it to much. Pelosi is wearing the same clothes so I assumed it was from today. Or is it from today but in response to the gun bill? Super weird either way.

Will that have any effect on the midterms.

I wonder if some of those Republican dopes are going to bring up mixed-race marriage now that the dam has been breached?

It will be hilarious (read: concerning) when Congress/SCOTUS starts discussing laws about male ejaculation and how to prevent masturbation. After all, semen is 50% of ingredients to make a baby. This while there is a global famine, historic inflation, historic political instability in the US, a hot war in Eastern Europe and cold war brinksmanship between East and West.

Priorities.

It happened today, so it could be either. Regardless...

It's also ironic that most Xtian fundies dont consider Catholics either Christian or much better than Jews and Blacks and yet most of the court is Catholic now
