The Supreme Court said on Monday that it would not hear

first half of the first sentence of the first paragraph and already we have dumb bullshit. This is what happens to 99% of everything submitted to the US spreme court. Rejected.

“This case is not the first instance of the Ninth Circuit restricting medical professionals’ First Amendment rights, and, without the court’s review, I doubt it will be the last,” he wrote. “This court recently reversed the Ninth Circuit’s decision to uphold a law compelling crisis pregnancy centers to disseminate government-drafted notices.”

Uh "crisis pregnancy centres" in the US context are usually sham medicine covertly religious anti-choice situations pretending to be a low rent planned parenthood. Doesn't anyone know what is being referred to here? I am guessing the "government drafted notice" may not be so heinous but idk.
