Republicans have gone mostly quiet since Alabama’s governor signed a bill into law that all but bans abortion

Republicans wanted to weaponize abortion against vulnerable Democrats in 2020, but a wave of strict bans across the country has upended their strategy, leaving them scattered and mostly mute.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and his two staunchly conservative top deputies are also split on Alabama’s law, reflecting a larger rift within the caucus that leaves Republicans exposed on a topic they wanted to dominate in 2020. The divide and muted response comes after similarly strict laws have passed in Georgia and Kentucky. And Missouri's last abortion clinic announced Monday it expects to close this week.

I tell you people the mysognist PATRIARCHAL GOP won't stop at stripping away a woman's right to have agency over her own body, they'll go after our right to vote and be in public spaces next.

Here’s a question if Roe v Wade is reversed. What will come next? What is the next cause for the anti-abortion people, because I don’t see them declaring victory and going home satisfied.

Forcing rape victims, including victims of incest, to carry a fetus to term is wrong

That's strange because some have come out and stated it went too far.

They are not completely stupid. If Roe v. Wade is overturned, that will put the issue of abortion squarely back in the states, meaning Republicans will never win another governorship. Women, who comprise the majority of registered voters, won’t be complacent if Roe is overturned.

All women, for the next election, the ball is in your court. Probably next, they will be telling you what to wear.

'They had homed in on a host of state laws' editors note, the term is 'honed in' Also what kind of person fights to kill babies, they're not chicken eggs.

Their state, their laws.. Get used to it

Own it cowards! To be clear, these bans are not about religion (every American is free to abstain from abortion if their faith prohibits it) rather the bans are about shutting down women and their fundamental right to make decisions about their bodies and their lives

Pro-lifers; 'All life is scared, but some life is more sacred than other life.'

There's no GOP grappling with the 'messaging'! They're pretty f**king clear what their intentions are. How about some honest reporting, please.

Alabama also declined to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, leaving a large number of pregnant women without health care. Perhaps Republicans could share their thoughts on the logical result of their decisions.

Now that the states of New York, Vermont and others are proving that Roe v. Wade has outlived its usefulness, it’s time for the SCOTUS to reverse that piece of judicial legislation and allow other states to protect our unborn, the truly weakest among us.

Looks like the grim reaper leaving the Senate! ditchMitch impeachTraitorTrump

It Is The DUTY of Congress to Defend & Uphold Federal Legislated Laws - Period. Arguments can be Discussed within Chambers, but The Laws Are Absolute. Shame on the GOP!

You have no Republican Party!!! There’s a MOB in control in the Senate! McConnell is the lead Thug! DitchMitch impeachCriminalTrumpNow ImpeachTraitorTrumpNow

We need to protect semen from destruction when men pleasure themselves.

I'll bet they have. They are all essentially out of a job unless they can find a neanderthal in the private sector that will hire them.

well...because they already won the fight.

The Republican Party is an abortion.
