Can the justices do such a thing when no case has come before them? or do they have to wait for a lawsuit?

Yes I am afraid of this. But remember you have to have the right case to change the law. That takes time.

because they can't read, and form their opinions based upon articles written by so-called journalists?

Well good luck explaining that logic to God when he points to the millions of babies that god aborted.

It's that simple, unfortunately.
No, you are being simple.

What Justice Thomas wants is for the Constitution to take precedence and for the elected legislatures to make the laws, instead of appointed for life judges.

This decision is about sending this back to the people.

I believe the individual employer - in this/your case the Federal government - can. The Biden requirement for private employers was struck down, yes?

Yep. That's what the far-right wants, to go back to the 1950s. Back when America was Christian, heterosexual, and a patriarchal society.

Conservative leadership in red states are already doing all they can to dismantle Trans rights. Today, the far-right has successfully dealt a blow to women's rights.

And as conservative Justice Thomas has now said himself, gay marriage and contraception are next on the far-right agenda.

It's been a running joke for a few years that conservatives would like to see America become a real-life Handmaid's Tale. But sadly, their dream may slowly becoming a reality.

Waiting for a purist interpretation of the 10th amendment to throw Social Security and Medicare to the states. That would be some real fun.

We have a right to choose, let God deal with the sinner. You are going to take her rights away, but not the right to own a gun that kills. So which is it ? Abort - a sin - child abuse of an unwanted child - not a sin ?? Check back in a few years and see the statistics on these innocent children.

Unintended pregnancy demonstrates predictive value as one of the earliest identifiable risk-factors for child maltreatment. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26070372/

The United States has one of the worst records among industrialized nations – losing on average 5 children every day to child abuse and neglect.

In 2019 alone, state agencies found over 656,000 victims of child maltreatment, but that only tells part of the story.1
