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 Samuel Alito, which signaled that the court was looking to overturn the landmark abortion case, which created the constitutional right to an abortion.
And because the court generally releases most of its opinions by the end of June, court watchers expect that any day now, the religious right’s war on Roe could come to a terrifying conclusion.
“The rights of all Americans are at risk,” Harris said in a statement shortly after the draft leaked. “This is the time to fight for women and for our country with everything we have.”
Thirteen states currently have trigger laws on the books, which would almost immediately ban abortion if the Supreme Court overturns Roe. And 26 states, in total, are considered certain or likely to ban abortion if Roe is reversed, according to Guttmacher.

Given enough time, fewer liberals will have fewer children, thus thos favoring abortion will eventually be outnumbered by those opposing abortion.
The downside may turn out to be a reverse of the Roe effect, call it the 'Wade' Effect. With abortion being more difficult to attain, more liberal women will then have more babies. Given enough time, the reverse could occur vs. the Roe effect: More liberals will be born, that otherwise would not have been born.
Just a theory mind you. My personal belief is that given time, this issue will diminish in terms of those favoring abortion, will find other methods to prevent unwanted conceptions, such as use of the morning after pill.
The blue states will still be free to kill babies. I don’t understand the panic
Ms. Potato Head
GoFundMe trips to California for abortions. I can see some vacation travel being covered that way.
You would think that everyone, even Kamala would be excited that the lives of millions of children are about to be saved.
The state of California will be sponsoring abortion vacations for out-of-state women. No need for GoFundMe.
States will make there own laws. Maybe thats why they have delayed it.
“The state of California will be sponsoring abortion vacations for out-of-state women.”
It’d be hilarious if every pro-life pregnant gal in America decided to scam Gavin Newsom out of a free vacation to sunny California. “I’m going to Disneyland! And, oops, I just happened to changed my mind about that while abortion thing once I got there. My bad.”
She should make an impassioned plea explaining how many of Willie’s babies she eliminated from the gene pool.
I’m looking forward to the fall of Ho, someday.
It turns my stomach to think of her as our Vice President . . . Just creeps me out!
Is she practicing her cackling in front of a big mirror?
I disagree with the theory. The reason why views have changed on abortion, and they have, is because of the Church and the advancement of science in prenatal diagnostics/care. Abortion will also be looked down upon more so in the years to come as well with negative birth rates occurring more and more around the world.
Dont think she has to worry about needing a cleanout.
I hear Ryobi makes a great cordless roto rooter now.
I suspect that many of the numbskulls protesting in front of the Justices’ homes have little understanding of how the Constitution works.
Everyone will be surprised when they find out Kavanaugh and the Hand Maiden have flipped. Roe v Wade will stand. JMHO but I’d be willing to wager on it
Why do you think that?
Because they’re cowards. One is a virtue signaling mom and the other weeps like a little girl on national tv when getting picked on by senate democrats.
Having guilt is not punishment.
You should read about the Nuremberg trials.
