BREAKING: U.S. Supreme Court agrees to consider a major rollback of abortion rights, saying it will take up Mississippi’s ban on abortions after 15 weeks.

The court’s order sets up a showdown over abortion, probably in the fall, with a more conservative court seemingly ready to dramatically alter nearly 50 years of rulings on abortion rights.

The justices had put off action on the case for several months. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, an abortion-rights proponent, died just before the court’s new term began in October. Her replacement, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, is the most open opponent of abortion rights to join the court in decades. But that majority no longer exists, even if Roberts, hardly an abortion-rights supporter in his more than 15 years on the court, sides with the more liberal justices.

We all know what they are up to. As clear as daylight

Felt my son kick at 18 weeks. I couldn’t imagine terminating the child at 15 weeks. It’s insane.

I like it

This is absolutely disgusting!!! Our human rights are being stripped away from us!!! What are you going to do with all these unwanted children? This is a one sided controlled law.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE AWAY WOMEN’S RIGHTS!

I hope they do!

Due to Euro ancestry low fertility birthrates. This makes it harder for women of Euro ancestry to get an abortion. There's no other reason for this action except Euro low fertility birthrates b/c they're the ones who promoted it in the first place.. TRUTH BE TOLD

Every woman must have control over her own body

Abortions are still going to happen regardless of laws like these. They'll just be much less safe.

This is wonderful news.!

I’m pro choice but Lordy I think a woman needs to make her choice within first 4 mos unless there are medical circumstances that arise.

This country is fucked.

If men Keep their zip up then we won’t have this. How many of you do valunteer work for special need kids? How many of you donate money to them? How many of you adopted special need chid? None. Republicans never legislate to provide care for special need even normal kids.

Is there anyone who DIDN'T see this coming? Republicans are nothing if not predictable...!

Activist judges are going to ruin this country especially for women and minorities....as always.

Well, so much for women's rights. The Christian nuts on the Court will rule in favour of Mississippi.

when you stay home & don't vote, we get this bs forced upon women. this is why we have the gqp states pushing through more restrictive abortion laws & voter suppression laws throughout the us. VOTE IN ALL ELECTIONS AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT, & IT DOES!

And once again I ask precisely what century is the US stuck in.

Just what we need, more government control, first ban Dr.Seuss, then assume all women are stupid and sleeping around. Good Lord, then complain about too many kids getting government help.

People are so pro life and I don’t see them rushing to take in foster children. There are over 424,000 that need help. Let’s focus on that

Perhaps a key question related to this case is: How many abortions are done after 15 of pregnancy? My guess would be, not many.

What right do these men have to decide what women should do with their bodies?

As long as abortion remains 'technically legal ' radical conservative political operatives are making tons of money fundraising off dumb hicks in rural America who's 1 core belief is 'right to life' It doesn't matter that abortions are at an all-time low or that their lives suck

Moscow Mitch did this to us.

Just wanted to send along a big shoutout to SenFeinstein here; I’m glad you and Lindsey got to hug it out.

America's turning into a full on religious dictatorship, medicine and science be damned. This isn't about law, this is about extreme Christianity. Biden, do something.

Time to expand the Supreme Court.

This is all on Mitch McConnell who denied President Obama a supreme Court Justice and then nuclear ruled the three justices that Trump appointed.

Good. For the sake of the 3 1/2 month old fetus.

Don't you just love it when a group of old white men with no medical experience or knowledge in their bodies, who cried about 'MAH BODY, MAH CHOICE' when it came to mask wearing or vaccines and cry against big government, wanna tell women across the US the government can

Overturn Roe vs Wade

There's always the 'Stop F÷×=king Men campaign?'

In complete agreement with Rep Adam Schiff as abortions are a woman’s private healthcare issue-not to be determined by the courts. Revising abortion laws usually means a monetary win for a segment of society so this issue needs further investigation.

I'd like SCOTUS to consider a ban on christians opening up their fn mouths on any topic in the real world.

Don’t mind me. Just looking at all the men in the comments who have decided they should have a say on women’s rights.

When will you American learn to mind your own business? I dont have to worry about that because I live in a country that allows me to make choices with my own body. I have never been in a situation where that was a consideration but I'm happy to have that freedom to choose.

If ppl were really prolife they would fighting for free birth control

Y do you all blame the woman and not the man/2 for a abortion.

Here we go folks, back to the stone age. May as well live in Iran, Brazil or Afghanistan. Highly unlikely that this lopsided SCOTUS bench won't do the unthinkable. The republicans killed 1/2 million Americans but nothing will hurt more than these 3 controversial judges

The SCOTUS is the THE BIGGEST THREAT to Democracy, period. Even if the Democratic Party gets super majorities in both houses of Congress. The Ultra Conservative Court can simply wipe things away.

The thing we all knew was coming is coming. Republicans, the party of small government, because otherwise it won't fit in a woman's uterus.

Forcing pregnancy on a woman is called reproductive coercion. It's domestic violence. The reason repubs don't care about programs that help babies is so you can't afford to escape/leave. This is about power/control & violence against women. Wake up ladies.

You know i dont get it. Religious people want to overturn Roe v. Wade. Yet Religious people would never get an abortion. Right? So, it really has nothing to do with them. Right? Other than the idea, offends them. So, what does it matter, if some heathens find a safe place to?

It's about time! I don't know what SCOTUS will do, but I pray that the senseless slaughter of millions of babies almost exculively to the god of convience will be obliterated.😢😥

religion 🤮

Nobody should be forced to carry a pregnancy to term against their will.

sickens me that people in white halls and older age,that have money to pay family school and dr fees get to make decisions for women. Woman need their own decisions on there life trajectory. Not strangers so far removed, they used to ask candidates the cost of milk,no clue

Can't wait, it will be like lighting a fire if Mitch McConnell & the federation judges BAN a woman's private decision on health. The corrupted way these stolen scotus judges was placed on the bench must be nullified. 13 scotus judges on the way. JoeBiden 5/17/21

The Taliban would be proud.

TheDemocrats POTUS VP SpeakerPelosi Sen_JoeManchin SenatorSinema SenSchumer SenateDems MUST pack the SC NOW

Good news, we shouldn't be killing tiny humans. This is the largest genocide to date. We threw them over the castle walls, down wells & through technology we kill within our bodies for the most fleeting of desires. We can reach a better morality as a species, I feel.

I bet most of the fuckheads that voted for this are men.

More of these delicious leftist tears, please

Ffs. Need to pack the court. Lil miss handmaid & mcrapey kavanaugh need to lose their powet.

Why would one state's case, with only 6M people have any impact on the entire country, even if it reaches the supreme court It makes zero sense,.... Why do I keep trying to think like a human being when this shit happens, nvm

Oh course this is Mississippi were talking about😒I feel women should have the right to do what they want with their bodies, next they'll tell u who u can have sex with🙄 Mississippi USA abortionrights

Science really needs to get on making it so men can get pregnant and have babies. Abortions will be a basic human right the next day.

This is stupid.

Gov't-funded medical care must supply birth control instead of only paying for abortions. Pro-lifer's must fund safe homes for pregnant women & safe adoptions. Replace abortions with birth control, care for pregnant women & babies, & find fathers thru DNA to pay their fair share.

One good thing that can come from this is if it lights a fire under the new admin to expand the court and investigate Ginni Thomas and reveal who paid Kavanaugh's debts. Fingers crossed.

2016, ppl decide to not vote. Those on their high horse said 'I don't like either candidate 4 president, so I won't vote' so a corrupt, failed business/reality game show clown put 3 justices on the bench. So u didn't like Hillary, but she would have gotten us closer to progress.

I guess we’ll see if selling the soul of the Republican Party was worth it to overturn Roe.

PaulDereume Under his eye.

It’s the 21st century but the primitive minds are still holding power.

If you do not want a baby, don't sex.

There are actual children getting bombed and here we are bitching about clumps of cells for the billionth fucking time.

Get your coat hangers gals!!

And in turn, I'm sure they simultaneously implemented programs that will help women and children eat, have easier access to healthcare, education and transportation. Right? Right?

Who could get an abortion that late & even later? Would it only be if the moms life is at risk? If so, back off. Not your business.

People should have voted for HillaryClinton

Just make abortion up to 4.5 months legal and after 4.5 months illegal. Since both sides will never see eye to eye, split it down the middle. 50:50. End of story.

Y’all really just admitting that even the possibility of a male child is more important than an adult woman huh

i hate this country

Here we go. Back in time when men were free to rape women, the woman had to keep the child or get butchered in an alley to abort. Here. We. Go.

Men, don't have sex with baby killers. It's really that simple. Team Scrape&Suck would make terrible mothers anyway.

Apocalypse, check.

15 weeks is a good compromise between pro lifers and pro choicers. I hope y'all can agree to disagree and settle on a compromise instead of continuing to butt heads. One side will never have absolute power over abortion rights. Take the compromise.

GOP candidates have won the national popular vote only once in the past 32 years! Yet GOP President have appointed 67% of SCOTUS Justices with Nixon & Trump appointing 3 each! ASTONISHING!

Excellent as this prevents the genocide of humans while in the womb.

Reminder A gov't that can choose to force pregnancy can also choose to end them You do NOT want this power in the gov't's realm. Keep this between the person and their doctor.

Women groups should ask Scotus to outlaw vasectomy. I would love to see this debate. If a women can't control her body then a man shouldn't either. ittake2tomakeababy

😡😡😡😡

Good

How the hell do Catholics or Christians or whatever they are, have so much political power still? Are they the only ones who care about politics? There's no way you can convince me trump or george w were actually against abortion

When they force people to be living organ donors, then maybe we can discuss forced pregnancies, until then, keep the government out of my vagina!

Conservatives are so duplicitous that they don’t realize that being pro-life also increases socialism. I have no problem with social programs, they hate them. So a vote for pro-life is also a vote for an institution they abhor.

Why is this a surprise? This is exactly why they stacked the Supreme Court before the elections

I don’t know why people are mad? 15 weeks is enough time for you to decide whether you want the baby or not. If you wait this long to get an abortion you simply want to murder a fully formed child?!

what an absurd. all women should have the option to abort regardless of the cause. the fact that the state holds that much control over women’s bodies is scary. these laws will not stop abortion, only make it more dangerous. this is a shitshow and absolutely disgusting

If men could get pregnant, abortions would be legal and there wouldn't be a need for surgery to get em.

The sperm donor can be found in 15 weeks. Either he pays up, or he gets a vasectomy first, then she gets the abortion. These guys who fuck, dump & run NEED to be held accountable for THEIR mistake. They should be the ones screaming to keep abortion legal. Fucking deadbeats.

I guess women will be able to start claiming a fetus as a dependent soon.

So to the conservatives abortion is bad, capital punishment is good. Got it.

Y'all wanna say they're are controlling people, but never think about the life in the womb.

Well... that’s nice of them...

Big victory today for the 2nd and 4th amendments 🇺🇸 as SCOTUS ruled 9-0 today that law enforcement can not enter our homes and unconstitutionally seize firearms without a warrant❗️❗️❗️

Follow the science! When the heart stops a human being is pronounced dead. So when a heartbeat is heard the child is a live human being! Free choice is a lie: babies don’t choose to die!

'Abortion Rights'

What? They Want to abort after 15 weeks.

This is such a MIS-Carriage of Justice. Refuse to get the vaccine b/cc of CHOICE, but, all woman must have a child b/c this is not our CHOICE‼️🆘‼️ What’s next, women can/no longer VOTE. 🛑‼️ Don’t take us back 50 years‼️ WTF‼️MEN MAKING DECISIONS FOR US‼️ SNAFU‼️BLUE PILLS❓

Everyone who voted for T*ump can fuck off into the sun

As a Healthcare provider, a state should not be able to mandate medical treatment recommended to someone, much less a “minority” woman. There are many reasons for D& C’s- including cancerous fetus that can spread CA to the mother. The state must leave their hands off medicine.

Yeah let the old white guys decide on abortion

They think over turning Roe v Wade will increase the births of white babies and slow the browning of America but the truth is the wealthy will find a way and this will speed up the very thing these old white men are afraid of.

But why? Why are we debating abortion rights at this day and century? Am I missing something? Has America peaked in terms of human rights that its just regressing backwards now ?

Why are Republicans obsessed with controlling women? They're obsessed with the fetus, not the child when he/she gets here. They prefer to watch children suffer because of their hate for equality and social programs. 🤬🤬🤬

Welcome to the world of women becoming infertile from receiving abortions via “trained” doctors using only the most sterile and proper coat hangers available again. Way to set the nation back 50 years SCJudgments

Stop killing innocent babies. You cruel women!

Leave women thee fuck alone. Our bodies do not need any regulation by a court. Period. The right to choose is ours. Not theirs. I’m sick to death by this constant bullshit to control women.

?: It's frankly obscene that I'm asked to vote for Corporate Whore Shillary just because of the Supreme Court. What's that got to do with anything when she's clearly going to be way worse for progressive causes than Trump?

Ban abortion. Men have the right to control women’s lives

when republicans preach freedom but can’t even allow uterus havers the freedom to do what they want with their bodies ....

W

Why, why, why after 50 years Why can't yah old men leave women's rights along....

So sick of this nanny-state b.s.

The fact that our society tries to force a woman to give birth from incest or rape, and yet doesn't punish rapists...is all you need to know about the true goal of 'pro lifers' GOPLeader GOP Scotus GOPCorruptionOverCountry GQP BigLie abortion RoeVWade

Time for some serious Supremee Court packing. Pack it! Pack it GOOD!

i wish each and every one of them a fucking spike through the eye

I am greatly disappointed that this subject has come up again in the court. It is a woman’s right to make decisions regarding her body. This is no man’s land.

Mississippi is the best argument for abortion.

Why is someone else deciding what I can do with my body? The government doesn't have the moral fiber to decide what is right and what is wrong, so they have no business deciding on abortions.

They better not fucking dare.

I don't think the SCOTUS will vote in favor of Mississippi. The way the law is written in Mississippi violates the Constitution.

This will ruin so many lives if it passes. Please, let people have their freedom. It's not murder. It's already a difficult and stressful enough choice without you making them feel like felons and criminals for it. Let them be.

This is NEVER going to stop ABORTIONS.🙄 Laws like these WILL make them more painful and deadly, but it won't stop them. Women having been going around things like this since the beginning. There are common foods, common plants that induce miscarriages. Nosey Parker Laws.

SCOTUS has outlived it's use at this point and none of their rulings shouldn't be considered anything but the insane ramblings of geriatric vampires.

We should abort Mississippi before it becomes illegal again.

Save the baby’s ! No more murder

I am beyond tired of this. The supreme court has NO right over women's bodies and whether or not they should bear a child. NONE. This is eternal.

People would not wear a mask which resulted in over a half a million people dying.But we won’t let up on controlling a woman which results in how many deaths? If we had called Coronavirus, “Uterus” would it have made a difference?

God bless President Trump.

'Conservatives': Life is so precious, we must protect the unborn at all costs! Also, 'Conservatives': The right to possess instruments of death is so fundamentally important, there's absolutely nothing we can do to stop things like school shootings.

Boo!

Ok,zzzxxxz see x reader Dr appointment at the moment so I don't have FedEx number x dress free free x Dr Reddy xf red

ill never understand how people stressed about other peoples decision to have a kid. like how the person who gonna have to raise the kid don't have rights to choose to bring it to the world or not.

literally going to try and let the Bible belt represent the law of the whole country. Sounds pretty anti-surpreme court.

They shouldn't even be performed after 12wks. This country has gone fuckin crazy.

Well, my mini-break after the Biden-Harris win is over. Honestly, I didn't expect it to last long and needed to regroup. So much damage was done to women's rights in the past four years.

Liberals are shaking like shit coming out of my ass

Kys Mississippi

How many of you freaking out realize the Supreme Court has been majority conservative since before Roe v Wade?

This is GREAT news!!!! Murdering babies is abhorrent. Dont want kids? Keep your legs closed and/or be responsible. Simple. ProLife

Good ..no one has the right to murder ..not even women.

Of course they did

Stop the slaughter of ANY abortions. Taking the LIFE of ANY BABY is MURDER. AbortionIsMurder

America is just shit stacked up in a trench coat
