News that I missed, courtesy of The Babylon Bee:
WASHINGTON, D.C., US—Leaked reports indicate that Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson spent all Monday night poring over biology textbooks to learn what a woman is so she could defend a woman’s right to abortion on Tuesday.
“When the ‘Liberal Justices Only’ group text message became all about ‘women’s right to abortion,’ I knew I had to learn what a woman is—by becoming a bona fide biologist,” Justice Brown-Jackson shared with reporters early Tuesday morning. Eyewitnesses described Brown-Jackson as having a chewed-up pencil behind her ear and looking bleary-eyed during her statement. “Even after hours of cramming, I’m no closer—I couldn’t even pick 10 women out of this lineup of reporters!”
Inside sources have confirmed that Jackson-Brown took repeated trips to the Supreme Court’s Keurig coffee maker in the break room, and confided to the janitor in her frustration: “I got into this business to commute the sentences of pedophiles! Why would I need to know scientific jargon about XX and XY chromosomes? I’m not a biologist!”
Go here to read the rest. Otto von Bismarck, Chancellor of Germany, once said that the role of a statesman was to listen for the footsteps of God and to grab the hem of his robe as He walked by. God is marching this year.
I got that book as a kid, for an Easter present (about 1967). When my parents discovered it had pictures of the stages of pregnancy they took it away for a few years. 🙂
