Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Monday warned progressives that the Supreme Court “isn’t just coming for abortion” after a leak of a Supreme Court draft ruling that would overturn Roe v. Wade.
“As we’ve warned, SCOTUS isn’t just coming for abortion — they’re coming for the right to privacy Roe rests on which includes gay marriage + civil rights,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted.
“Manchin is blocking Congress codifying Roe. House has seemingly forgotten about Clarence Thomas. These 2 points must change,” the liberal firebrand continued, taking shots at Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
A draft ruling on Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that made abortion a constitutional right nationwide, was leaked by Politico on Monday night. The opinion was drafted by Justice Samuel Alito, a George W. Bush appointee.
The opinion concludes by declaring that Roe and the court’s decision in Planned Parenthood v. Casey both have no grounding in the Constitution.

AOC just got the talking points?
Who is the dumbest person in Congress? Lots of competition, but this one’s a contender.
“Manchin is blocking Congress codifying Roe.”
No, you have to get past the filibuster.
Good
It's time to start awarding garage-door pull-downs to all communists like AOC...
So much so, that I am rethinking the Current Long Term Champion, Barbara Boxer
The libs want our guns and would use that nutjob they just approved to take them.
She makes Maxine Waters envious at times.
OMG the Left has become completely delusional and insane
Normally I would say AOC, but then I remember that Sheila Jackson Lee is in Congress too.
When conservatives use slippery slope arguments we are scoffed at and called conspiracy theorists... even when our fears come true. Not so for leftists.
I think we’ll probably have slavery again, and child labor, and Prohibition, and white male-only voting. I’m surprised she didn’t think about those, but she isn’t exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer.
They project onto us what they do. They’re worried we’ll slippery slope issues like they do.
Is AOC still hitting on Musk ?
Marriage meant one thing in this country for most of its history, the same thing it meant in Judeo-Christian culture for 5000 years.
It’s a decision that should be the citizens to decide.
Most states had moved to codify it before the Supremes usurped them by telling us all that they were changing what it means.
No. And I tried to sell the Senate Judiciary Committee that the non-biologist sexually assaulted me, but no one listened. LOL
Where is a ‘right to privacy’ mentioned in the Constitution?
Aoc, hon,,
Roe rests on a pnuembra ,
a fiction, a delusion, a lie .
Unless you’re a groomer you have nothing to worry about.
Marry who you want, but leave the kids and unborn alone.
Sucks to be you AOC. We are coming after a lot of things.
