Um, yes, the SCOTUS doing something awful has generated outrage that Biden would be a clueless monkey not to use. The SCOTUS, however, does not work for Biden, he can be blamed for a lot of things, but not for them overturning Roe vs Wade.
Well, yes, and given that we knew that various states would immediately ban abortions, saying that it didn't have to change anything is meaningless. It was done exactly for the purpose of causing the changes we have seen that everyone knew would happen.
I'm sorry, but the bias of other sources is completely irrelevant to the issue of whether you should trust a particular biased source.
Didn't Obama have even the Republican support by the end.
No I think more people should be paying attention to the specific laws, bills, budgets, and acts on the bills. If you ask someone what they voted on Act 13, or Prop 49, they likely wont be able to tell you because all people remember is the popularity contest of the major election. But laws and regulations are on there all the time so make sure to look into that shit.
Again I don't think that was the intent. RvW is known for being poorly ruled. By overturning it they can rework it into something more legislatable. So that might be the intent there. Yes the short term result is going to be states issuing blocks. But that doesn't mean they intented that, to be the case only that is the result in the short term until new more defined legislation can be enacted.

They don't want that, they just don't care. Eventhough abortion bans will not practically benefit anyone at all, not even the most hardened pro-lifer, they still feel that their principles being law of the land is more important than the physical and mental health of most americans and families, child care, and the economy. They wanna feel good about their outdated views even if it burns the world down.
Outdated religious views, because religion ruins everything it touches. So much for separation of church and state right?
And/or they know they can use it to get support and be in charge of the pile of ashes that used to be a country.
Well I mean, I'm sure POWER is always going to be the end goal for most of the republicans, but really, how does an abortion ban work to achieving that goal? It's going to hit red states the hardest. Again, this is literally going to benefit nobody, apart from zealots that wanna feel good about themselves (and dipshits that feel they now owned the libs I guess).
No, it means that Congress establishes the bounds of what domain the regulatory agency is being delegated authority over, and they can make regulations within that range. Going beyond that range, or making regulations that Congress has specifically shot down is out of bounds. In the case of the SCOTUS case in question, due to an admittedly poorly worded bill the EPA did not have that authority in that case. Pass a bill giving them authority over that and they would. This is way different than saying the EPA "cannot actually make regulations" in a broad sense.
...in a country where half the population has to sign a document saying they are effectively government property to be used and disposed of at it's will (even if making use of that is extremely unpopular and not currently needed and so is unlikely to actually be invoked for the foreseeable future), that same half of the population is routinely subjected to medically unnecessary genital surgery in infancy, and there's one kind of debt where you have to pay another person (remember: for most people funds to pay things are gained by doing labor with their bodies) and if you fail to keep up with payments you can be jailed (about 1 in 7 who fail to keep up with such a debt end up being jailed at least once, as as the debt continues to accrue while in jail, you can't work while in jail, and employers tend not to prefer people who have been incarcerated if they have a choice being jailed for being behind only makes you farther behind and more likely to be jailed again) .
Amusingly, it puts abortion under the same kind of legislative structure as in the EU - a matter for individual member states to decide.
Does the Trial of Bitter Waters count?
Especially since it's a state level decision now, and those other states simply don't have to pass an abortion ban and they won't have one.
Killing people is not a right. Done.
Even if we imagine it feasible to go "this was a question between state and federal jurisdiction, but we're going to rule that those laws don't apply in the first place", I want you to appreciate what you are suggesting: neither US nor state laws would apply to anyone in the entire eastern half of Oklahoma, including most of the city of Tulsa.
An unused atrefact mainly kept around by the people who believe you don't have bodily autonomy, yes
Not legislatively enforced, but largely supported by the people above
Kept around because actually having robust social services is poison to the group saying you don't have bodily autonomy, yes
Super cool how this turned into an MRA post. So, should you have bodily autonomy or not? Or do you just want to whine some more?
No, an accident is when the action has an unintended, unforeseen consequence.
Indeed. The manipulations of power have acceptable collateral damage. Those in power have always been okay with this as it does not affect them.
Did you know that state and nation are synonyms?
Federal law normally applies on reservations, state law normally does not. The whole point of the case was whether or not someone doing a state crime on the reservation who is not part of the reservation falls under state law, and I'd argue they belong under tribal law instead - if you are on the reservation the law on the reservation applies regardless of who you are and reservations are not normally subject to state law (this is literally why Indian casinos are a thing at all) but are subject to federal law.
Should you? Yes. Do you? No, and overturning Roe didn't change that, just expanded who that fact was blatantly clear to.
OK, but collateral damage is what happens when there's an attack. That's the origin of the term.
It also changed the severity of it, and who it applies to most severely.
