The Supreme Court has overturned precedent dozens of times. None of these justices lied.
What was the intended effect of their answers?

What that boils down to is that you disagree with their decisions on particular cases and are vengeful.
Look, that is fine. But let's just call it what it is.
Precisely this. Totally expected, coming from Democrats.
"Particular cases?" Stuff it. At this point it's painfully clear that they aren't even legitimate and shouldn't be hearing or deciding ANY cases. They dishonestly got their seats through lying and deceit and should be impeached for it. And given the magnitude of such an egregious breach you should be angry too.
For anyone concerned about their safety, impeaching these clearly illegitimate, unfit Justices for perjury and removing them from the court would be a step in the right direction where it comes to restoring trust and accountability in the Supreme Court.
"They're clearly illegitimate and unfit because they didn't vote the way I wanted (and expected) them to!" I imagine your entire life has been filled with these tantrums, over one thing or another.
You completely fail at reading comprehension.
They are illegitimate and unfit because THEY LIED UNDER OATH in the process of gaining their seats.
Except they did not lie - reputable sources have stated as much. You simply like to parse their words and take them out of context to try and convince yourself (and others) that they did lie. But they didn't. Life must be difficult for you.

I watched and rewatched the videos for myself.
THEY. DID. LIE.
And as kid-glove as your fact checks are, they still admit there was deception and dishonesty, which still makes them unfit and still remains at the root of their perjury.
You trying to claim anything less makes you dishonest as well.

Very true.
Why should they step down or retire? They simply made a ruling you disagree with. Oh well.
Nope. It's been a steady string of bad rulings. But the Roe one was the one that exposed their lies and perjury in their confirmation hearings, because they said they would uphold it, that it was the law of the land, that no judge should overturn it, that it was settled law, that it was an important precedent, that it should be respected et cetera et cetera et cetera. When they ruled against it, that showed they LIED.
Talk about "oh it's just one decision you disagree with" and you show us all you are clueless and have no idea what you're talking about.
