I got to say from the party that thinks men can get preg, I’m really not surprised

Welcome to America's dystopian hellscape, brought to you by Donald J. Trump, who overturned Roe.
The very first line in the story is a lie.
No need to read further.

Explain how. Be specific.
He can’t. The poster doesn’t even know the difference between a miscarriage and an abortion.

Lesh dreams about abortions.
It’s become apparent on this thread he doesn’t know what an abortion actually is

(RNS) — Today, as Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's casket lies in repose at the Supreme Court, she is being lionized by progressives and feminists. But that wasn't always the case. Ginsburg's nomination to the highest court in 1993 almost didn't happen because President Bill Clinton had heard that some feminists didn't like her.
The reason was Ginsburg's criticism of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 SCOTUS decision that effectively made abortion legal in all 50 states. Ginsburg thought the ruling was correct, but too sweeping.
Even RBG thought Roe v. Wade went too far. We should learn from her incremental approach.

Today, the idea that a judge’s views on abortion rights might be determining factor for his or her suitability for a seat on the Supreme Court is unsurprising. In particular, the landmark 1973 case Roe v. Wade is frequently referred to as a “litmus test” for a justice. So it might come as a surprise that, though she made history by endorsing abortion rights during her confirmation hearing, Ginsburg had well-known reservations about Roe.
Her views on abortion came up during her confirmation hearings in part due to a lecture she’d given earlier that year at New York University School of Law, in which she discussed the topic. At one point during her talk, she critiqued the Court for the structure of its decision in Roe v. Wade:
The seven to two judgment in Roe v. Wade declared “violative of the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment” a Texas criminal abortion statute that intolerably shackled a woman’s autonomy; the Texas law “except[ed] from criminality only a life-saving procedure on behalf of the [pregnant woman].” Suppose the Court had stopped there, rightly declaring unconstitutional the most extreme brand of law in the nation, and had not gone on, as the Court did in Roe, to fashion a regime blanketing the subject, a set of rules that displaced virtually every state law then in force. Would there have been the twenty-year controversy we have witnessed, reflected most recently in the Supreme Court’s splintered decision in Planned Parenthood v. Casey? A less encompassing Roe, one that merely struck down the extreme Texas law and went no further on that day, I believe and will summarize why, might have served to reduce rather than to fuel controversy.

LOL Which Justices did she tell you she's going to replace? Or is that part of her scheme to abandon the filibuster and pack the court?
