Democrat Maxine Waters appears to suffer an angry meltdown after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Waters posted several messages on social media in response to the Supreme Court decision in conjunction with her public outcry.

Waters posted the following messages on social media and they received very little support in the form of likes or retweets:
“Today, I stand in solidarity with the 36 MILLION women being stripped of their right to decide what is best for themselves. We WILL keep fighting!
This is only the beginning of an extreme Republican agenda to take away our personal freedoms, from abortion to contraception, to marriage equality to personal safety.
As a Member of Congress, I’m proud to have voted to protect abortion access. Today’s SCOTUS decision makes it even more clear: we need federal protections for reproductive health. I am committed to continuing this FIGHT: in Congress, in the streets, and at the Ballot Box!
Immediately after the trading frenzy of GameStop & other meme stocks, I said @FSCDems would get to the facts that led to the market volatility. Promise kept! Today, we released our report on our full response & investigation I led. I urge you to read it”
As for the Supreme Court overturn of Roe v Wade, Politico reported: “The Supreme Court has voted to strike down the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, according to an initial draft majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito circulated inside the court and obtained by POLITICO.
The draft opinion is a full-throated, unflinching repudiation of the 1973 decision which guaranteed federal constitutional protections of abortion rights and a subsequent 1992 decision — Planned Parenthood v. Casey — that largely maintained the right. “Roe was egregiously wrong from the start,” Alito writes.
“We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled,” he writes in the document, labeled as the “Opinion of the Court.” “It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.”
The full Supreme Court decision/opinion can be read here.
NPR added the following: “Writing for the court majority, Justice Samuel Alito said that the 1973 Roe ruling and repeated subsequent high court decisions reaffirming Roe “must be overruled” because they were “egregiously wrong,” the arguments “exceptionally weak” and so “damaging” that they amounted to “an abuse of judicial authority.”
The decision, most of which was leaked in early May, means that abortion rights will be rolled back in nearly half of the states immediately, with more restrictions likely to follow. For all practical purposes, abortion will not be available in large swaths of the country. The decision may well mean too that the court itself, as well as the abortion question, will become a focal point in the upcoming fall elections and in the fall and thereafter.”
Look for social media to erupt in vocal protests, even from people who can’t or won’t ever get pregnant or be in the position to have an abortion. For example, Maxine Waters is well beyond the age of giving birth and this has no impact on her, but she’s barking like a Democrat to spark hate towards Republicans.
