Abortion has never, ever been a Constitutional Right. Even Liberal Justice Ruth Ginsberg said that. The SCOTUS only deals with Constitutional Law. Abortion has never, ever been in the Constitution. Six highly qualified Justices corrected this 49 years old error. Now it is fixed. This Case is Closed.

Correction: 6 political appointees lied to Congress and took away our Constitutional right to control our own body.

Thankfully there are still states that a woman can feel free to choose what's right for her own self. Plus companies stepping up willing to pay for employees to travel and have procedures done for them. Bravo to them all.

You`re right Jenn, it should be the woman`s decision to make. This is just another way for men to control women

there will still be abortions but not done by MD in a sterile enviroment, instead we will go back to the coat hanger variety done in somebodys back room and there will be more botched abortions with sepsis and deaths as a result. do we want to go back to this? why

Men should not make the decision for women. A majority of the American public don’t want this!!! If they are so concerned over a egg unable to be fertilized, I can’t wait till they figure out what a period is!!

The Senate Confirms Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court as Stephen Breyer's replacement, she can't even define what a woman is. How would she ever understand what an egg or a period is?

I believe that a woman should have the right to make decisions about her body, with support from her physician.

How dare you Max!? Don't you ever tell a woman to but out if it deals with her own body! How schovenistic can you be? I get you have your views and are entitled to them. It's doesn't give you a right to force them on anyone.

I am also a father and a grandfather. The fetus, also belongs to the father. You butt out. Since Roe v Wade happened in 1973 over 63 million babies, have had their lives ended, by so called "professional health specialists." I've never seen a baby walk away from an abortion.

No one should be permitted to tell another adult what they can and cannot do with their own body. Any state that bans abortion is violating the separation of church and state by imposing their religious beliefs on the population.

It is much easier, and more economical, to prevent an unwanted pregnancy, than it is to deal with an unwanted pregnancy. And a life would not have to be lost. Abortions cause a lot of grief after the fact, for many people. Abortions also cause other health risks.

My son's football coach is very religious but he keeps it separate from his teaching at school and on the field. I'm proud this coach stood up for it.

Glad he won. He wasn't forcing anyone else to join him. Nobody should be able to tell him he can't do that.

And, Coach Kennedy won his Supreme Court Decision about Praying on the Football field. Thanks to six High Quality Supreme Court Justices. Now coaches all over the USA can mentor without fear of constitutional rights being taken away by liberal progressives through agenda-driven legislation.

ROMANS 14:12 "Everyone" is going to stand before God one day and give an account of their life on Earth. This comment may not suit "everyone". But it applies to "everyone", regardless of their personal beliefs, or lack of beliefs, social standing, where they live, or who they think they are.

Every woman should have the right to control her own body and not everyone agrees that life begins at conception. If you don't agree with abortion, don't have one, but don't force your religious views on others

They don't want Kings, they want their authoritarianism back, which is what they didn't get when their failed appointed candidate who never got a single primary vote, was attempted to be installed as their continued fascist leader.

The 2025 document, which took years to create, says it all. We are losing the rule of law and our rights under this administration. I believe Trump is a puppet for the far right conservatives who want to alter or destroy our democracy.

The only thing being protested here is Trump's landslide victory- spoiled children throwing fits, because they didn't get their way.

I just take witness to who join these protests. I know very soon the majority will die of old age, the rest are lazy and allergic to responsibility and accountability. So they will tear each other apart. Let them expose themselves.

Where were these 'no kings' protests during the Obama/Biden admin? There was fascism and borderline dictatorship policies being pushed (green new deal, electric car mandates, gun confiscations, suppression of free speech, etc) and silence. Trump is not a king, so stop acting like a serf.

Donald is more powerful than a King, because he was elected, in a massive landslide vote, that was not fixed.
