#1 I believe that as the court handed the issue back to the states, this too becomes a state issue. I'm sure the usual suspects (CA, NY, IL, WA, OR) will let it play. I suspect that in other states the legislature will enact laws for the removal of such people from office for what amounts to 'delectation of duty'.

Yes. State laws yet to be written and intending to regulate abortion, in the near future, could easily include language like that.
Jury nullification I foresee will pop up in possible trials of violators. What we are seeing in this article could be called "prosectorial nullification".

#3 In attempting to remake America in their mental image, our Progressive multi-billionaires set up the dominoes that are now being knocked down, one after another.

This sure looks like a tipping point to me.

#4 I like how a week ago anyone who owned a gun is very icky, and now they are like, "go get a gun we have murdering to do."

And how many episodes of Insurrection USA and now be, "Storm the Capitals!"

#5 ^ We've been conducting an expensive social experiment for the last two or three years, and the results of the experiment are now in: Even very liberal voters don't like being beaten, robbed, and carjacked. Portland's Schmidt is not yet eligible for recall, but that day is coming, as it did for his pal Boudin.

#6 Boudin may have been "recalled" but I can find no news article that states he has actually left his position as DA.

#8 In that case their shield against prosecution and lawsuits should be removed.

#9 ^ There's a legitimate debate to be had, and that is being had, about the scope of prosecutorial immunity.
