This is what’s going to happen. Viability will be over but Roe will still exist.

Because both parties are ok with wiping out wealth hoarding boomers and replacing them with forced birth kids who will be largely locked out of ever accumulating anything?
This is all theatre. They have spent four decades and billions of dollars to get to this very point. Roe is dead. Of course, it’s up in the air if they officially overturn it but there is zero doubt this is the case they are using to end it in terms of actually protecting access to abortion.

Just to be clear guys, we’re not banning abortion. We’re just going to allow states to make it impossible to get an abortion if they don’t want you to have one.

Democrats are such losers. It is so painful to be confronted with their complicity at every turn.

Only small chance is Kav being on board with the viability carve out.

Honestly if Roe does get overturned in June and Democrats do in fact get crushed in November, there was nothing we could have ever done anyway. If this doesn’t motivate people, hard to imagine what will.

All signs point to all the shit hitting the fan in 2024. Republicans will control the House and every swing state legislature. They’ll either actually win or start some kind of civil war. Once they’re in power, they’re never giving it back peacefully.

A civil war would require a force to oppose them. Not gonna happen.

Sounds to me like they will uphold the state law, and make it a state’s option type of issue. That will make for interesting situations in places like Florida, where the Republicans are in control but there is a significant Democratic electorate. I expect most deep red states would adopt anti-abortion bills, but it seems like it would be a politically risky move to do it down here, yet their base will expect them to.
Also important to note that there are a bunch of states that won’t even have to pass new laws, because the old, pre-Roe laws are still on the books but aren’t being enforced at the moment.

26 States Are Certain or Likely to Ban Abortion Without Roe: Here’s Which Ones and Why

The time is now. Will you stand up for reproductive health and rights?
First published online: October 28, 2021
On December 1, 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization , a case on the constitutionality of Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban that will specifically address whether a state can ban abortion before viability (generally 24–26 weeks of pregnancy). The Supreme Court taking this case at all is a stunning development, but the state of Mississippi has gone even further and asked the Court to outright overturn Roe v. Wade , the 1973 case that affirmed a constitutional right to abortion.
It is far from a foregone conclusion that the Court will cast aside five decades of precedent to overturn Roe and allow states to ban abortion. However, by even accepting the case, the Court has signaled that it is willing to revisit the legality of abortion. Furthermore, the Court’s September 1 decision to decline to block an unconstitutional six-week abortion ban in Texas (S.B. 8) from going into effect may be an indicator of its intent.
States Certain to Ban Abortion
If Roe were overturned or fundamentally weakened, 21 states have laws or constitutional amendments already in place that would make them certain to attempt to ban abortion as quickly as possible. Anti-abortion policymakers in several of these states have also indicated that they will introduce legislation modeled after the Texas six-week abortion ban.
“By the time the Supreme Court hears oral arguments in the Mississippi case, there will be nine states with an abortion ban still on the books from before Roe v. Wade , 12 states with a trigger ban tied to Roe being overturned, five states with a near-total abortion ban enacted after Roe , 11 states with a six-week ban that is not in effect and one state (Texas) with a six-week ban that is in effect, one state with an eight-week ban that is not in effect and four states whose constitutions specifically bar a right to abortion. Some states have multiple types of bans in place.”
