Roe v Wade could be overturned TODAY: Supreme Court could issue opinion ending federal right to abortion within hours just seven weeks after leaked draft triggered wave or protests
Daily Mail UK ^ | June 21, 2022 | Harriet Alexander

The 1973 Roe v Wade ruling that guarantees the federal right to an abortion could be scrapped as early as today as the Supreme Court hands down multiple new opinions.

The Court does not announce in advance which decisions will be made public, and instead only says that decisions will be declared. This week, the opinions are being released on Tuesday and Thursday.

There are 18 cases that need final rulings before the justices depart for their traditional summer break, which usually happens by the end of June or early July.

The case in question that the Supreme Court will rule on is listed as Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

On May 2, Politico published a leaked draft of the decision, in an unprecedented breach of the traditional secrecy surrounding their verdicts. The draft document, which Chief Justice John Roberts confirmed was authentic, would see the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling overturned.

The Justices could have changed their minds in the intervening weeks, but most expect their verdict to be the same - striking down federal guarantees that abortion be available in every state.

Sure, it could be today. Anything’s possible. But next week seems more plausible given the SCOTUS history of saving ultra-controversial decisions until the last day for a release-it-and-get-out-of-Dodge-before-sundown kinda approach.

Any progress on the leak investigation? I didn’t think so. What a joke!

I’m thinking the 29th.
Isn’t that the last day for issuing decisions?

By law, opinions are released in reverse seniority...with Chief Justice being last.

I wouldn't bet a plug nickel on a vote to overturn. I can *easily* imagine the Rat Party's campaign of intimidation having succeeded in causing judges who were originally planning to vote to overturn to change their minds.

"Is this worth having some guy with a man bun hurting my wife? Look what they're already trying to do with Justice Thomas's wife"...is what they might say to themselves.

Maybe if PP had been around during slavery... Most PP clinics are in black neighborhoods now. You would think they would object but it seems they do not. Abortion seems to be the latest extermination experience. And the women seem to embrace it. Maybe one day they will notice that the dems want them gone. All of us really. Our replacements are arriving and they are not required to get “the jab”. Wonder why. Sadness.

Wasn't Margaret Sanger one of those “progressives” who didn't want those darkies reproducing? Planned Barrenhood has achieved things that the KKK never ever *dreamed* of achieving.

The Daily Mail likes headlines that are more sensational. Yes, it could be today. That gets you to read the article. But probably not.

Deep State to pro-choice women: Vote for us or lose your access to abortion.

Talk about the real war on women.

Well, ladies, are you willing to submit to blackmail?

Word of warning: If you do, Deep State will keep doing this.

Planned Parenthood was founded not simply as an organization for limiting the size of families in general but more particularly to reduce the reproduction of the black population in the United States, as Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger herself noted.

Agree. To much hype towards a humane and sensible ruling. The left wants our side broken, what better way than to green light the continued slaughter. I take no comfort in the absolute fact that it will the left’s own children killed in this manner, we are speaking of innocents. I’m not optimistic on this one. Feels like they are playing us.

Why would they change their mind? The USSC usurped the power of the states. It simply goes back to the states. At one time, abortion was illegal in every state in the USA.

Maybe they’ll defer releasing it until they resume session next fall.
