I would be willing to bet that Republicans will be shocked to find they overplayed their hand and there will be a reckoning in November.

This is a massive win for them, I don't see how it can backfire.

70 percent support Roe v. Wade and the other 30 percent would if their daughters were impregnated by ****.
Not suggesting anything though.

Where that 70% is located matters.  Is it all in places like NY, California?   Then it doesn’t matter….  the states controlled by Republicans will outlaw abortion, and it’ll be status quo in the states that have half a brain.

And the wives, mistresses and daughters of pro life Republican politicians in red states will continue to enjoy access to abortion while working class women suffer and die to try and obtain it.

Well, yeah…. That’s a given.  They don’t want their shitty laws to apply to themselves!

Schumer is going to put this into vote Monday to codify Roe vs Wade. It’ll be interesting to see how R senators vote on this. I think many were happy to pass the buck to SCOTUS but now their own legacy is on the line.

What a sh!thole country.

I welcome Republican overreach now and not after the midterms. I wouldn't underestimate the negative impact this will have on the far right in general. PIerreP must be pissed.

It won’t even pass all the Dems, I bet. 

And if it does, will SCOTUS uphold it, or overturn it based on some state’s rights nonsense?

How long until contraception is banned….?   If a fertilized egg has a right to not be aborted, it must have that same right regardless of the method to eliminate it.

In States where abortion is legal, can towns or counties outlaw the practice?

I doubt contraception will be totally banned... probably just made harder and harder to obtain (especially for poorer people)... Red-states switch to "abstinence only" sex education, dropping of birth control from government-funded programs, etc.

Any contraceptive  that affects a fertilized egg will be.   It’s as murderous as an abortion.

The Supreme court has basically confirmed the leaked information was accurate.

Chief Justice John Roberts has called for an investigation into the leak, claiming it harms the integrity of the court. (Again, as I mentioned before, he is forgetting the court no longer has integrity.)

See: https://www.msnbc.com/andrea-mitchell-reports/watch/supreme-court-confirms-draft-opinion-on-overturning-roe-v-wade-is-real-and-will-investigate-source-of-leak-139186245889
(Note: Its a video, so I can't really quote anything in it.)

Someone should tell Roberts the Senate destroyed the integrity of the court some time ago.

What, just because Moscow Mitch failed to even allow hearings on Obama's nominee, then had Stubby McBonespurs (who lost the popular vote, and got elected with the assistance of the Russian government) nominate 3 justices (who then, from the looks of things, proceeded to lie to the senate during confirmation hearings), and who were approved by republican senators (from states who's total population represented less than half of the U.S. population)? How can that be considered bad?

You might be correct about stacking the court though.  That’s likely the only solution…. And even that might not get them to re-overturn it.
To do that, they would need to get rid of the filibuster. Given the presence of Manchin/Sinema (who have fought to maintain the filibuster) I doubt anything will happen in the near future. And given the current political climate, there is a good chance that the Democrats will end up losing seats in the next midterm election (giving control of the Senate back to Moscow Mitch.)
