The Left is in an apocalyptic mood after the leak of Justice Samuel Alito’s draft opinion that may, if the intimidation campaign that the leakers were hoping to provoke doesn’t succeed, herald the end of Roe v. Wade. If the Supreme Court really does overturn Roe, it won’t even mean the end of legal abortion, as the states would be free to make their own laws concerning the practice. But Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Ditzville) and Eric Swalwell (D-Fang Fang) want you to believe that this is just the beginning of a MAGA wave so large that it threatens to drown every pet Leftist cause and then some. According to these and other hysterical Leftists, Alito’s draft decision, which may not end up being anything close to the majority decision at all, is just the beginning of a movement of conservative meanies who are going to destroy everything the Left holds dear. Hey, we can always hope!
AOC tweeted Monday evening: “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. Manchin is blocking Congress codifying Roe. House has seemingly forgotten about Clarence Thomas. These 2 points must change.” AOC was referring to the fact that Manchin on February 28 voted against the Women’s Health Protection Act, which would have protected “a person’s ability to determine whether to continue or end a pregnancy, and to protect a health care provider’s ability to provide abortion services.” According to Newsweek, “it proposed that the U.S. attorney general could sue any state or government official who violated its terms.”

What is so difficult about this ruling? IT WAS UNCONSTITUTIONAL! Whoever voted for it should be dishonored because they are on the Supreme Court for one reason only.....to determine if something is constitutional. If they fail at that, then they are a failed court.....they are worthless, they do not uphold their word. It is so serious it should be considered treasonous if a Supreme Court Justice votes on anything unconstitutional because they are political about the issue, or simply don't agree personally!
