The Texas abortion ruling is taking longer than some expected

[Polybius]

Last weekend the media was saying the ruling would probably come Monday the 22nd. A week later nothing. I guess it will come when it's ready.

1. 'the media was saying' obviously doesn't mean much.

2. They Will Delay It Long As Possible, Sir

After all, every day they delay is one more day it certainly remains in force....

3. They're probably trying to figure out how to word it so that

it doesn't look "ideological" when they say it's fine to put bounties out on abortion providers and women who have them, but not OK to put them on people who kill with guns or other right wing priorities.

4. It's been no secret that it is tied almost directly with the Mississippi case...

they don't want conflicting rulings that close together, so I'm sure they're trying to sync them.

5. Now that makes sense

Too bad that will likely delay the ruling considerably though.
