Let’s tell the blatant truth right up-front: Senate Republicans are understandably upset by the leaking of the Supreme Court’s always-secret draft opinion. Especially this supremely controversial one.
We all now know that the court’s new conservative majority voted secretly in February in favor of overturning the half-century of precedent-setting rulings that legalized the rights of America’s women to have medically safe abortions. But they weren’t quite ready to tell you how dangerous the court’s still-being-considered decision can turn out to be for your daughters, wives and loved ones.
If your teenage daughter is raped, her government may force her to give birth to her rapist’s child. If a pregnant wife’s health is endangered, her government may insist she risk her life and give birth anyway.
