Dipshit governor thinks judicial branch isn't an equal pillar of govt & 5-3 Supreme Court rulings shouldn't count.

Today's decision from a divided court is a prime example of activist jurists imposing their will on the people.

Attorney General Brad Schimel Statement on U.S. Supreme Court Ruling in Whole Womens Health v. Hellerstedt
Jun 27 2016
MADISON, WI Attorney General Brad Schimel issued the following statement in response to the U.S. Supreme Courts decision in Whole Womens Health v. Hellerstedt:
Todays U.S. Supreme Court ruling on a Texas abortion law is disappointing and undermines the respect due to policy makers.
Wisconsin is defending a similar law in a case before the Supreme Court and we expect a decision in the near future.

(1,604 posts)1. Sounds like WI policy makers overplayed their hand.
Amnesia can be disorienting, e.g., supremacy clause, tradition of rule of law, and SCOTUS as the final arbiter of dispute.
Call the waaaaahmbulance.

There is more to come after Hillary /Warren are elected. I believe this is the beginning of the end of the Right Wing Dominance in States and in the Supreme Court. A lesson for the Republicans, you pushed too hard and now you will feel the backlash.
