Justices' assurances on abortion in doubt at hearing

In Mississippi abortion case arguments, both justices signaled openness to overturn precedents, reviving doubts about confirmation norms and polarization in the Senate. The hearing sparked fresh debate on whether the court may roll back decades of abortion protection and whether the confirmation process remains legitimate.
