Frida Ghitis: States are passing laws that will force numerous Supreme Court conflicts.
She says the court will have to pick one side or another; there is no middle ground.
Ghitis says the Supreme Court is likely to decide whether states' rights continue to practice in practice.
The Supreme Court will be likely to side with red states, she says.
Frida Ghitis: Red states are pushing laws that hamstring women’s health and transgender health.
She says red states are passing laws to prevent health insurance companies from covering gender-affirming care anywhere in the U.S. She says Florida has introduced a law that would, among other things, create a sanctuary state for people who kidnap children from other states who are “at risk” of receiving life-saving care elsewhere.
Ghitis says the gravity of our national identity is pulling us apart, and it's not just one issue in the immediate future.
The gravity of ideology will simply tear us apart, says Julian Zelizer.
Zelizer: The Republican Party has gone all in on the culture war, and its end-state goal is to force the unconditional surrender of blue states on issues of health care access for women and transgender people.
As long as the two sides stick to their guns, it will inexorably lead to fracturing, he says.
