The end of the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling was the culmination of decades of work by Republicans and social conservatives — one that came to pass only after a former Democrat from New York who had once supported abortion rights helped muscle through three Supreme Court justices. Publicly, former President Donald J. Trump heralded the Supreme Court’s ruling on Friday ending federal abortion protections as a victory. Yet, as he faces possible prosecution over his efforts to subvert the 2020 election and prepares for a likely 2024 presidential campaign, Mr. Trump has privately told friends and advisers the ruling...

On Friday, when the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision establishing a woman’s constitutional right to an abortion, the three Democratic appointees — Justices Stephen Breyer, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor — wrote a forthright response casting the majority’s decision as a blow to women’s civil rights.“With sorrow — for this Court, but more, for the many millions of American women who have today lost a fundamental constitutional protection — we dissent,” they wrote.“Today, the Court … says that from the very moment of fertilization, a woman has no rights to speak of,” they continued....

“And we stand ready to work with other arms of the federal government that seek to use their lawful authorities to protect and preserve access to reproductive care. In particular, the FDA has approved the use of the medication Mifepristone. States may not ban Mifepristone based on disagreement with the FDA’s expert judgment about its safety and efficacy. “Furthermore, federal agencies may continue to provide reproductive health services to the extent authorized by federal law. And federal employees who carry out their duties by providing such services must be allowed to do so free from the threat of liability. It...

notifed this morning to attend an "emergency" meeting at a certain fag studio this afternoon.. You would think its about box office numbers, contracts and copyrights, greenlit projects as it involved hundreds of producers like myself in a big room.. BUT HELL NO! It's about Roe v Wade and the studio head was literally crying in front of us, pleading to make MORE abortion projects, aside from gay fag LGBQTABC123 stuff. 2 damn hours of garbage, and speaker after speaker of execs who had an abortion. God, the comedy of the exploding heads. You mean you have to call us...

Liberal Twitter users have taken to the platform to blast the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg following the court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade on Friday. While a number of journalist lay the blame at former President Trump who got to appoint three conservative justices during his time in the White House, things took a surprising turn when attention shifted to RBG. Several users saw it fit to blame the late Supreme Court Justice for the court's landmark decision on abortion with some suggesting that had she decided to step down sooner while President Obama was in...

U.S.—Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, Democrats nationwide have been accusing the Supreme Court of taking rights from “women.” Onlookers have confirmed this to be confusing, as it seems to suggest that Democrats do in fact know what a woman is. “Women today have less freedom than their mothers!” Nancy Pelosi took the stand today to defend “women’s rights to make their own reproductive decisions.” Onlookers found themselves befuddled by the rhetoric about the “women’s right to choose,” since Pelosi should have no way of knowing what a woman is since she is not a biologist. Trans activists have...

WASHINGTON — In a memo distributed today by James Bopp, Jr. of The Bopp Law Firm, PC, general counsel for the National Right to Life Committee, NRLC proposed a Post-Roe Model Abortion law for the states to adopt, in the event that, in the upcoming decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization or some future decision, the United States Supreme Court substantially expands states’ authority to legislate regarding abortion by overturning Roe v. Wade. “For decades, National Right to Life and its state affiliates have led the effort to pass life-affirming laws at the state level that protect unborn...

The 74-year-old justice, an appointee of President George H.W. Bush, went on to declare the court should reconsider other cases that fall under previous due process precedents. Thomas' argument was entrenched in the belief that since the Constitution’s Due Process Clause was found not to secure a right to an abortion in Friday's ruling, the court should apply that same logic to other landmark cases. He cited three in particular - including 1965's Griswold v. Connecticut, which allowed for married couples to buy and use contraception, and 2015's Obergefell v. Hodges, which allowed same-sex couples to legally marry.

President Joe Biden addressed the nation from the White House's Cross Hall calling it 'a very solemn moment' and a 'sad day for the court and the country.' 'Today, the Supreme Court of the United States expressly took away a Constitutional right from the American people, that it had already recognized. They didn't limit it, they simply took it away. That's never been done to a right so important to so many Americans,' Biden said. 'But they did it.' 'Now with Roe gone, let's be very clear, the health and life of women in this nation are now at risk,'...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) condemns the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. wade, calling it “outrageous.” She also criticizes the justices who testified in their confirmation hearings that they respected stare decisis

<p>In a 6-3 vote, the court overruled Roe v. Wade, opening the door for states to ban abortion.</p>

With the release of five more decisions on Tuesday, June 21, the justices now have 13 cases left to release before they leave for their summer recess. Some of those as-yet-undecided cases are high-profile ones involving issues like abortion, gun rights, and religion, but the justices are also tackling important issues such as the “major questions” doctrine and whether the Biden administration must continue to enforce the “remain in Mexico” program. The justices are scheduled to release opinions again on Thursday, June 23. Here are brief summaries of the 13 cases that have not yet been decided, but could be...

As dangerously brain-washed children circle her home, it’s reasonable to assume that Merrick Garland’s Justice Department will do absolutely nothing. The federal code is remarkably clear: A person who “pickets or parades” near a judge’s home “with the intent of influencing any judge...in the discharge of his duties...shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.” (18 U.S.C. § 1507.) Simply put, if you appear outside a judge’s home attempting to change a case’s outcome, you’re a criminal. And yet, who thinks that Merrick Garland’s DOJ will act on the fact that protestors gathered...

The radical pro-abortion group, Jane’s Revenge, is planning more acts of domestic terrorism when the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on Roe v. Wade is revealed, dubbed a “Night of Rage: An Autonomous Call to Action Against Patriarchal Supremacy.” The group posted its plans on the Anarchists Library website at the end of May in expectation of the ruling, expected sometime in June.

The number of abortions in the United States has increased, reversing what had been a three-decade decline, according to a new report. The uptick began in 2017, and as of 2020, one in five pregnancies, or 20.6 percent, ended in abortion, according to the report by the Guttmacher Institute, a research organization that supports abortion rights. In 2017, 18.4 percent of pregnancies ended in abortion. The institute, which collects data by contacting every known abortion provider in the country, reported that the number of abortions increased to 930,160 in 2020, from 862,320 in 2017. The number increased in every region...

As the looming threat to abortion rights gets closer, Vice President Kamala Harris continues her efforts in the White House to prepare for a post-Roe v. Wade world. According to Reuters, the Vice President is meeting with constitutional, technology, and privacy law experts today to discuss what comes next if the Supreme Court goes through with overturning Roe. Harris and the legal experts are expected to discuss the “real-world” implications of the potential court decision, “including in areas such as privacy, contraception, and in vitro fertilization,” according to Reuters. In May, Politico published a leaked draft opinion from conservative Justice...

The attempted assassination of Justice Brett Kavanaugh makes it abundantly clear that Chief Justice John Roberts is playing with fire in refusing to issue the Court’s majority opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the case that could potentially overturn Roe v. Wade. The potential for someone to make an attempt on a justice’s life was predictable once the draft majority opinion, in a shocking move, was leaked—but the threat appears more serious in the wake of a deranged person having arrived at Kavanaugh’s home with the stated intention, and with weapons in tow, to kill him. It is...
