Everyone knows his fucking position, which is the same as it always has been since he was shoved onto the bench.
He represents some of the ilk that was vomited forth by New Jersey. 
Even when physicians have told them over and over and over that what they keep claiming is some "earliest" detection of what they purport is a "heartbeat" is not coming from a "heart" at all, because A HEART HAS NOT FORMED YET.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Dr. Michael Cackovic has treated his share of pregnant women. So when Republican lawmakers across the U.S. began passing bans on abortion at what they term “the first detectable fetal heartbeat,” he was exasperated. That’s because at the point where advanced technology can detect that first flutter, as early as six weeks, the embryo isn’t yet a fetus and it doesn’t have a heart. An embryo is termed a fetus beginning in the 11th week of pregnancy, medical experts say. “You cannot hear this ‘flutter,’ it is only seen on ultrasound,” said Cackovic, a maternal fetal medicine specialist at Ohio State University’s Wexner Medical Center, where some 5,300 babies are born each year.
Yet bans pegged to the “fetal heartbeat” concept have been signed into law in 13 states, including Cackovic’s home state of Ohio. None has taken effect, with all but the most recently enacted being struck down or temporarily blocked by the courts. Now, one of the most restrictive, signed by Tennessee’s Republican Gov. Bill Lee last year, goes before the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday.
Proponents of these so-called “heartbeat bills” are hoping for a legal challenge to eventually reach the U.S. Supreme Court, where they look for the conservative coalition assembled under President Donald Trump to end the constitutional right to abortion protected under the high court’s landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling. The notion that abortion as early as six weeks into pregnancy “stops a beating heart” helped propel the measures to rise above persistent constitutional concerns in the states that have backed them.
The concept’s originator, Ohio anti-abortion activist Janet Folger Porter, spoke openly about her strategy in an email to supporters last year — deftly side-stepping whether the packaging of the bill was medically true. “The slogan, ‘Abortion stops a beating heart,’ has long been an effective way to highlight the injustice and inhumanity of abortion,” Porter wrote of the state’s law, the Ohio Heartbeat Protection Act. And, she found, hearts were easy to market.

I mean it's basic middle school health class stuff!!! And they can't even get that right.
It takes at over 2 1/2 months (10 weeks) for an actual "fetus" to form, which is well AFTER "6 weeks".
They're judges, not politicians. Correct? They're not political, they're only there to interpret the law, not write it. Correct? HEAVY 
Only THEY can "ask the questions" in their extreme non-activist activist way!!11!!1!!1!! 
This will be your life now.
