I guess even if some people end up going to jail over Trump's shenanigans the conservatives have won their long-sought prize and they will consider it worth the cost.

Okay, as soon as I see an article in the NYPost or Daily Caller about laws prohibiting contraception, I’ll let you know. 

Please do!

And your presumption that "right wing extremists don't already conflate IUDs with abortion" is just as valid as the assumption by many on the right that left wing extremists want to ban private gun ownership and are advocates of open borders.

It's not an assumption that some right wing extremists equate the IUD with abortion because they do. The Hobby Lobby nonsense a few years back was evidence of that type thinking as they limited what their employees could access with their employer health insurance.

Clarence Thomas, and his public comments, very concerning. Like all Americans, he has a right to his personal opinions. He does not have the right to impose those opinions on the rest of us through his profession as a US Supreme Court Judge. I would say this of any Judge, regardless of political affiliation, that made public comments that very much affect the legal fabric of the US.

 

Ugh this. Yes it’s one thing to think about it but to say it, it’s almost intimidating and threatening..

But if they did return that right and freedom to the states I'm quite certain that Justice Thomas feels immune and insulated from that...

Yes. Extremist may think that The problem is you think all Republicans are extremist. 

There are left wing extremist that believe a woman should be able to abort a pregnancy at any stage for any reason. 

Neither represent the majority on either side.

Still waiting for an actual person’s quote in favor of this. So far it seems that the truthfulness of this assertion is on a par with the so-called “Crisis Pregnancy Centers”.

K. I'm waiting for an actual person's quote from these "right wing extremists" that want to ban all forms of birth control.

How does that answer the original question? Who, precisely, advocated for abortion on demand at any stage for any reason? And who, precisely, are these “others” of whom you write? Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to challenge them directly rather than to someone who has never expressed that opinion?
