Commentator Cal Thomas argues Chief Justice John Roberts once again flips on abortion precedent in a Louisiana case, challenging the idea of GOP-nominated justices adhering to constitutional text. The piece links past preferences, cites Dred Scott and Plessy v Ferguson as precedents, and urges support for pregnancy help centers and sonogram use to inform decisions.
