A party that takes away abortion rights but refuses to provide support for pregnant women who need help with medical care including birth expenses, housing, food, child care and schooling, employment, etc, is most definitely not pro-life.
For real
Republicans are angry that people found out about this possible outcome ahead of time. They wanted to just be handed down before the people could have their voices heard.
I think it’s ironic that America calls it’s self the land of the free yet women aren’t in control of their own bodies.
they only care about them until theyre born
@Врожденный республиканец tell that to the men who can't control what's on their pants🤣🤣🤣🤣
Banning abortions is not pro-life. It's just anti-choice. If they are really "pro-life" they would fix the foster care and adoption systems. "Pro-life" is Healthcare and housing for all.
Totally agree, 100%.
I'm only commenting to see the people who disagrees comments
Exactly! To be pro-life is to support the quality of life of those living and in need of aid.
Exactly
Banning abortion is pro-choice. Choose pregnancy and stick with it!
"Rights aren't rights if someone can take them away. They're privileges. That's all we've ever had in this country, is a bill of temporary privileges." (George Carlin)
Thats why I die when the 2nd amendment dies.
I believe that if a woman’s life really is at stake she should have the right to have an abortion at a hospital. Other than that I don’t believe abortions should be the go-to for child prevention. So many powerful dark twisted people use aborted fetuses blood for their own sinister motives. Why would we want to keep feeding these demons who live among us? We should be starving them. Furthermore women should get their tubes tied until they are absolutely SURE that they are READY to begin having a child. And we shouldn’t even allow people to just have children randomly. They should prove that they are ready and capable and take several courses and read books beforehand. We make people take courses to become a foster parent but we let the rest of humanity have children with no proof that they’re ready? Why? 90% of them are about to traumatize that child. I firmly believe young women should get their tubes tied before they become sexually active. The reversal procedure has been done effectively for the last two decades but in case it failed, invitro should be provided and covered by the state. Also tummy tucks should be covered by the state after child birth. So basically I don’t think abortions should be illegal but I do think they should only be done in an emergency where the mothers life is threatened. Otherwise tube-tying should be the normal contraceptive method for young women. I think we might have less people in the world if we did this but we’d have happier people.
abortion was never a right, its not in the constitution. And its not like its going away, its going back to the state.
Hey, since THEY are making the CHOICE for us...maybe THEY should have to PAY for the child, the medical care, the delivery, the food, diapers, education, clothing...
I mean, if we aren't allowed to make a choice over OUR bodies...then it's THEIR baby!
But it not your body only, it’s the child’s body aswell
@@notfounder285 There IS NO CHILD. Its a freakin Blob of Cells at the time of the abortion. FFS, start thinking.
@@notfounder285 Yes, it will become a child that someone else decided I MUST have against my will. Therefore, the people who made that decision should have to pay.
Also the fact that there is a baby food shortage in the U.S how are these unwanted babies going to eat?
@@dartharagon9129 Not true. After 6wks you see the baby in full colour nowadays. You see it as a little human forming. Some of this abortion laws have allowed late term termination. Basically killing a developed newborn human.
Fun fact: racism and slavery are also deeply rooted in our nation’s history and traditions.
Fun fact: With the current conservative majority, that might be our future!
No it isn't it's all in the mind. It's not real
@@jasonolson3133 everything is "in the mind" bud
@@ellzgoespro6568 Seeing the trend with censorship of "Divisive Topics" is the first step. Next is reintroduction of Jim Crow Laws, and finally we start full on slavery. America is clown.
Fun fact: Racism and slavery are deeply rooted in most countries history and traditions.
“Not deeply rooted in this nations history and traditions.” That argument could easily be used to get rid of a ton of rights.
That’s the point. They can overturn almost anything based on the 14th amendment if roe v wade goes.
Brown v Board of education is now up for grabs. I hope black Trumpists think about that for a second.
@@simpaticode Yeap Clarence Thomas even said explicitly so.
Slavery was in the US constitution.
Can't wait till all these Republicans get caught sending there mistress to a abortion state. You know it's going to happen they don't want them baby mama ruining there perfect life.
I'd just REALLY like to live in a country where what rights people have didn't change based on the biases of a group of people. Every "inalienable" right we have can be taken away by these people reinterpreting the wording of that right.
Well find someplace else to live and what is being taken away?
@@christinechristie7571 The right to medical privacy. And before you say "that's not a right", the fact is the Supreme Court ruled it WAS a right, and now they're ruling the opposite. Every right you can think of is subject to this court's opinion. Is something protected speech? Is your use of a firearm allowed under the second amendment? How absolute is the right to vote? If you don't have a problem with your rights changing based upon who's stuffing the courts, then we have wildly different ideas on what a "right" is. And no, I won't find someplace else to live. I was born here, I've served my country and done my duties as a citizen, I deserve to have secure, inalienable rights.
@@jakepullman4914 Nobody is going after anything they are putting back on the states!
@@jakepullman4914 Thank you for your service!
Why is a change necessary? Every state had their law so why is this going federal. They obviously want to increase population but there are better ways. This will bring unwanted babies in teenagers’ lives and just increase poverty.
My dad died in 1969, leaving my mom with 3 young children. Shortly after he died, she received a notice from Sears Roebuck canceling her credit card because there was no man in the household to sign for it. Yes, we need to be vigilant and vote progressive to maintain our rights.
I didn’t like the judgement. Whatever. Trevor gets paid for being biased. Will he speak against those trans people taking away space from women in sports? What about women rights there?
Please keep telling men this. They have no idea
Dude, your line about "evacuating women out of Tennessee" ain't wrong. So many women actually leave the South once they get old enough for precisely this reason. People in America are blind if they think that political and religious nutjobs don't create refugees inside our own borders.
As long as they have the resources to escape.

False leftist talking point...my friends ex has 8 kids...ALL paid for by the state, straight into foster homes. No issues at all. And this is a red state. Nice try tho. Cope harder.
Because the home/school-to-prison pipeline keeps prison-industrial systems in the black. You have to think about how the suffering of others benefits them financially.
@@Theomite that’s the problem. It’s money.
And how about those who simply "couldn't bring themselves" to vote for Hillary. I remember trying to convince them that if Trump won we could say goodbye to Roe. No one believed me or thought it was serious enough. Ok now we have work to do.
I will never forgive those people. They are complicit.
Amazing show. You captured the fury and softened it with clever humor. laughter through tears is one of the great gifts you all provide us.
Don't forget, Susan Collins thought Trump would be chastised after the first impeachment. She believes whatever she needs to. That's how she justifies her loyalty to her party.
just trying to keep her job and the donations rolling in... SMH.
To be fair, Republicans lie on every aspect of the Supreme Court. How is one to determine when they are telling the truth? They completely fabricate a "rule" to deny Obama's nomination a review, then completely ignore it to force Trump's nomination through. Lying is what they do.
She's corrupt
I wonder what she will say once she finds out that Santa isn't real.
Susan Collins shouldn't be taken seriously on anything she's talking about.
I’m not someone whose really interested in politics or affiliated with a political party, but I find it interesting that the party that claims to be the party of freedom and making personal choices is the same party that is trying to take away the freedom of a woman to make personal choices for their own body.
It’s a matter of the other person involved- the baby. To them, someone has to intervene and speak up for the child.
@@victorlopez9530 until that kid is born, then it’s “Rights? Child care? Mrrrh, get a job slacker.”
Two people are effected by her decision
When they talk about "freedom" It is freedom for companies they are talking about. Not the freedom of people.
@@aarondrake2748 how many people are affected by the rapist's and incestor's decisions?
I have lost ALL CONFIDENCE in the Supreme Court. Might well as say welcome to dealing with BS politics. The SCOTUS cannot be lured into polticial take over. But it has now happen. Trevor is comedy but he is right about the planning.
Well, I have gained confidence in the Supreme Court, if it's actually true, because I've always felt that murdering babies was wrong.
Welcome to the the team. A majority of us lost confidence in them when Roe V. Wade was passed decades ago. Thankfully, the younger generations are opening their eyes and seeing abortion for what it really is.
If the Supreme Court can make a decision like this, then it’s clear they’re not fit for the job. Time for leaders who actually care about what the people need and not about upholding tradition
You don't actually know the law do you? The Supreme Court is supposed to interpret law, not decide what is and isn't right. Overturning Roe vs. Wade would simply be the Court returning the matter of abortion to the states. If your state decides to continue the practice you'll be fine. Don't you feel it's advantageous to understand what you're screaming about before you start screaming?
The supreme court are not our leaders. They are not voted for and they do not care about you.
@@papapickett7267 The Supreme Court does not decide what is and isn't right. The Supreme Court does not exist to make sure your feeling are accounted for when making decisions. The Supreme Court is supposed to interpret law. That is their job, interpret the law. Sometimes their decisions will make you cry and feel angry. Have a cookie and some milk.
At this rate, we'll be fighting for civil rights all over again.
At this rate there might be a second civil war too,..
That's what they are hoping for.
@@Justusson It's the same Civil War. You wanted to play nice and reconcile with the South. You wanted to give them their participation trophies and statues and Jim Crow laws to appease them. You let them keep waving their Confederate flags and just recently did Congress finally make lynching a Federal hate crime. You've given the South a free ride since the Civil War and they never stopped fighting it.
They even waved their Confederate flag inside of Congress during a violent Fascist coup attempt. Finish the Civil War.
All over again? Name a time where we weren't fighting for civil rights?
@@Justusson I honestly don't see any other way.
This is downright terrifying. The fate women's rights is in the hands of NINE people! The Handmaid's Tale was meant to be a cautionary tale, not a blueprint.
Congress could and should pass legislation about abortion. It should never have been up to those 9 people, our elected representatives need to do their jobs.
Nine people plus the state legislatures and governors.
And the handmaids trays way better than most Black women.
The court is proposing to make this a state issue vs. a federal issue.
That’s the point Is to send it back to the states where there is more representation. 9 people put this into effect 50 years ago as well.
I'm so proud of everyone online, I can see so much enlightenment going around! I've seen the progress from when the internet was little & what it is now. You are all blossoming & it's beautiful to behold. It's lovely to see a guy saying these things, too, it's very cathartic & healing. Thank you ♥
“Justice can lie in their job interview without repercussions”, love it!
"deeply rooted in this nations history and traditions" would also be a great sentence to justify colonization, slavery, racism, ethnic cleansing, discrimination against minorities, taking back women's right to vote etc.. I wonder if that's where we're headed next ?
If you don't know that that is EXACTLY what the Rs have wanted for generations, you've been living under a rock.
Be careful - you're treading in CRT territory - you can't talk about real US history.
Sadly....it could be, those are the things they have been very vocal about for quite awhile.....as insanely scary as all this is, it really shouldn't be a shock
Well, they already try to justify all those. It's time to build a new country.
To be fair...
Slavery is still a thing.
Racism is still a thing.
Discrimination is still a thing.
They never stopped being things.
If it's still available, watch "13th" on Netflix.
I'm from the Philippines. Let me tell you if you make abortion illegal most of those women will go for risky underground operations and take the medical process into their own hands, if they can't go to another state to get abortion. The fact it's risky...a lot of women will die.
Republicans have never cared about women. No childcare, no affordable housing, no welfare, no income support, nothing for over 50 years. Heaven forbid if you're disabled on SSI- you can't even work PT or get married in 2022 without endless penalties. No social safety net of any kind in America.
What you describe is the exact reason why Roe v Wade was passed in the first place the Republicans know this and do not care.
Yeah, research backs this claim up. Lots of research backs this up.
No they won’t. Ain’t no woman gonna go the coat hanger route. Fear mongering at its worst
Yeah we know. These people don't care.
I just want to thank Trevor for the inspirational remarks at the correspondents’ dinner. You eloquently spoke the truth about the responsibility of the press. Well done!
There IS a remedy. It's called impeachment for justices who lie to congress.
That’s SUPER important to remember! These people lied to get their jobs! Thank you for emphasizing this reality.
Judges don't need to worry about their daughters having safe access to abortions. Their positions and financial worth give them options most Americans don't have. That is the point.
They would have their daughters on the first plane smoking to Canada
It’s insane because everyone knows that the Bush family has had multiple abortions in Texas. But they to profit from the prisons in the foster care system so it all makes sense

@@technopirate304 I just gonna say it pro life people don't really care at all about the fetus if they did they do something about mass shootings rapists healthcare basically it's like telling the troops we need to stop terrorism but only fight in the middle east
I think this is one of the first times I've ever seen Trevor Noah visibly angry. And he is someone who is legendary for keeping his patience with people. This really tells you something about the nature of this decision.
It tells me he is little more than a partisan hack. Some pro-choice people will celebrate the overturning of Roe v Wade. It's not about the right to abortion per see or whether you are pro-life or pro-choice. It's about the fact that Roe v Wade was a horrible court decision.
All of these tears are so delicious.

Honestly more court transparency would be great. Trevor yuor ability to illuminate the hypocrisy of these people is such a great gift.
SCOTUS 1000% needs more oversight and accountability, it's an obvious hotbed for pay-to-play politics at their worst, thanks to Republicans seeing a shadowy place without oversight and going _"yesssss a place to be feculant and evil hissssss"_
This!!
You mean the hypocrisy of DemonRAT cities ignoring federal law and declaring themselves sanctuary cities?
Or did you mean the hypocrisy of DemonRAT cities effectively nullifying the 2nd Amendment with their "may isssue" statutes and no open carry laws, ..., ...,
Time to abolish the Supreme Court, or at least downgrade it to the level of a legal advisory committee.
If you are getting your mind "illuminated" with this Trevor guy, then I feel sorry for you for having very few brain cells....
Usually, Daisy has me rolling on floor with her performances but this time I just couldn't bring myself to even laugh a little. Even for a comedy skit, she looked so angry and rightfully so. It's just not fair.
Truth be told, one of the biggest forms of backlash women can have against this ruling is only being with themselves (self-love), choosing not to be with a man for as long as they wish: at the end of the day, what a woman chooses to do with themselves is none of a man's business, especially when they don't personally know someone and what they've been through 😒
Are you suggesting women can’t ‘’live thrmselves’’ if they’re in a relationship…? 😂
If you think The Handmaid Tale could never happen... think on this.. Most people. do NOT understand that as women today... we are barely a generation away from gender based restrictions for most things we take for granted.. My mother was born in 1920... the first year women could legally vote. But even by the time she was old enough it wasn't easy to vote. When she and her sister went to vote her father told them he would disown them if they did... and it was frowned on by many of the neighbors. If you tried to open a bank account the manager often wanted the ok from your father or husband. Not only were you paid less than half of a man's salary... If you got pregnant... or sometimes even just got married your boss could and often WOULD fire you as you were seen as less productive. If a woman married a non-citizen they lost their American citizenship.... but if a man married a non-citizen he kept his. If you got a credit card or even a passport it said your husband's name. Women were often denied their own separate passport and had to travel under their husbands. These are just a few things they lived with daily that took almost 100 years of fighting to change.... and it has only taken a handful of years for it to be significantly eroded.
It really is breathtaking how much women being men’s property was codified into culture and law. I am so grateful to the women that paved the way so that I could work full-time, have my own finances, make my own medical decisions, and own my place. Which is great since I have zero interest in marriage.
This is all just a way to control women. A lot of women are going to die because of this and they don't care.
@ I'm going to assume you said this to be deliberately inflammatory --or-- that you're one of those pathetic men who insults women because you just can't seem to understand why they're not attracted to you.
I am a staunch believer that if one does not safeguard their rights, those rights will be taken. However I don’t think that moving abortion from a federal issue to a state issue is the same as a woman being an autonomous human being. Abortion involves another life. There really is no need to debate that aspect because there is no logical “start” to life other than conception at this point and it is indeed a life.
@- so that means women's rights can just be taken away? You realize that can be said of men as well right?
My mom was a nurses aid in the 60’s. A women came in to the hospital because of an abortion. She was in pain and bleeding. They kept pulling out some kind of cotton from her. My mom went into great detail about what this looked like and smelled like. The women died from blood loss and probably infection. My mom decide that this job was not for her after that, it was to much. People get desperate and then things like this happen.
American women will die on American soil. It’s honestly a war against women.
I agree if your going to do this in reference to abortion, how do I know you won't outlaw birth control.
They're already planning to. Several prominent Republicans have already said they want to outlaw birth control. Louisiana is pushing a bill defining abortion as homicide. The way it's worded, it defines certain forms of birth control as homicide, too (because they can work after conception). So taking the pill makes you a literal murderer, according to them. That's how nuts they are. Completely out of touch with reality. It's horrific to think what could happen to women who simply suffer a miscarriage under such lunatic laws.
I am 5 days post op hysterectomy and I’d be lying if I said part of why I had this done was so that no one can ever tell me what to do with my body. No children, 35 years old. Truly sad what women still have to endure in this century.
What really takes the cake for me about what Alito said is that the Constitution doesn't explicitly protect abortion as a right of the people. As a Supreme Court justice, he should know that that's what the ninth amendment is for.
The ninth amendment says, "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." Basically, it means "do not take the outlining of rights in the Constitution too literally, your rights don't have to be spelled out word for word."
Just because something is not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution, that doesn't mean that it can't be protected.
Not once have I heard the 9th mentioned in videos over this. I came to the conclusion long ago that Rs seem to feel that people don't have the right to do _anything_ unless it's explicitly stated in the Con, rather than the Con saying that GVMT only has the authority that it is explicitly granted. By the people.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The 9th amendment says I have a right to machine guns and refusing vaccines too then
Word. Used to be only rich white men had the right to vote.
So Biden should be put on impeachment trial for forcing people to get a vaccine, which is something only states can decide not the federal government as a whole (10th Amendment). You liberals just love ignoring the Constitution except when it's convenient for your side.
"If an undocumented woman gets pregnant in the US, then would it be illegal to deport her as she's carrying a US citizen?" Keep asking questions like this. "Should fathers be legally required to pay child support the moment the fetus is detected?" "Can a woman claim life insurance for a fetus, then collect if she miscarries?"
I like these questions
@@lilly_ann they're from a law professor, forget her name, but these have been making their rounds again the past few days

According to the WHO, abortion restrictions do not reduce the number of abortions carried out. It only increases the number of unsafe abortions, which are a leading cause of maternal death. So if you support the idea that a woman should not have the right to have an abortion, then you’re causing the deaths of two people instead of one. Doesn’t sound very “pro-life” to me. Accept that women will find a way to have an abortion if they want to and help protect their safer avenues to do so.
Exactly. It's not about "pro-life", it's about controlling women.
@@corbinjohnson3637 Yup. Pro Life is Anti Woman, as George Carlin already pointed out over a quarter of a century ago.
And we know all the conservative men pushing to end abortion will happily continue to pay for their mistresses to travel somewhere to have abortions. It's not about "saving babies" it's about giving white men control over women's reproduction, either to force women to be housewives who have lots of kids so they will be afraid to leave their husbands or to get rid of pesky illegitimate pregnancies with the other women they are secretly sleeping with despite their so-called superior morals.
Republicans dont care about equality they just want to subjugate people under debt while they stonewall democrats from solving real problems like republicans fascist politics
Where are the other 3 comments?
Okay so the same people that argue that the government cannot mandate vaccines because people should have the right to control what's done to their bodies. Are also arguing that women should not have those same rights in the case of abortion.
Ironic, but not surprising.
Right all of a sudden what is done to one's body is not important.

Sarcastic Trevor is solid gold.
LOL at the Fill Buster birthday card. Legendary joke.
this is all about creating a permanent underclass and cheap labor, not about the sanctity of life. We know how little our legislators and representatives care about mothers, children and families.
Bingo. They want women stuck at home, churning out plenty of poor children to supply cheap labor for rich companies.
Sanctity of life is nothing but a lie regressive rightwingers spread to garner sympathy. They never cared nor do they care about any other lives but their own.
Absolutely right. It’s about power and control, nothing to do with pro-life.

Can we roll back how long the justice can stay on the Supreme Court.
It's super rare that Trevor's delivery ever betrays his true inner emotions, but there was some minescule nuances in this episode that sounded ultra South African and therefore indicated it came more from his heart specifically [ 2x uses of rhetorically asking "Right?" and 1x use "Man!" ]. The man is as professional as it comes and it's nice to see into his true opinions sometimes.
He gets paid tbh. I didn’t like the judgement. Whatever. He gets paid for being biased. Will he speak against those trans people taking away space from women in sports? What about women rights there?
Thanks so much for this unapologetic truth bombing. Thank you for saying what I've been feeling. I actually applauded when Trevor brought back around the privacy and violation point in regards to the leak itself. I started crying at the Elizabeth Warren clip - the pure rage in her voice was palpable, and I share it - and when Desi was talking. Women are not incubators, we are actual real people deserving of human rights.
(Edit: typo in "talking")
I voted for Warren in the primary. She's such a great person.
There are so many implications to overturning Roe v Wade.
ERA is a glaring example of vulnerabilities in our nation.
You are that easily swayed? It is political. Just like BLM pops up around election time, now women are being used as pawns for midterm elections. Coincidentally there was a leak right? Oh my what a coincidence, no way there was any intention to that.
@@victorlopez9530 A couple dozen states have anti-abortion laws they never overturned, or "trigger laws," that take effect immediately when Roe is overturned. Are you living under a rock? This will instantaneously overturn abortion rights in not less than 24 states, all of them Red.
You won't even be allowed to own land after they are done.
MTG made me want to puke. Warren made me want to hug her close and let her vent over my shoulder.
Please remember that "states rights" is cover for "more restrictive".
THIS. Because if something is *actually* a right, it shouldn't matter if you move across an imaginary line from one state to another. So when neoconservatives and Republicans act like suddenly the imaginary lines matter in terms of rights, that's a great way to begin chipping away at the right in question. Pass it on.
And from the party of "less government" no less!
States' rights are and have basically always been a cover for "I want to oppress people without federal government interference." They used the same argument to try and uphold slavery. They used it to oppose civil rights legislation. And they absolutely will use it to try and install a fascist regime. Because they've already tried it, failed, but no one of actual consequence was jailed.

Individual rights don’t matter, only rights for politicians

Immortal words of Carlin - “you dont have any rights, how can you? When they can be taken away”

I got the feeling that large parts of Desi’s speech were unscripted, she conveyed so much of the anger and hurt and distress most of us feel now.
it definitely wasn't, but ok..
You might begin to feel better if you decide to consider the crime against humanity of crushing the skulls of babies as a matter to regret supporting.
As a European it just blows my mind that you have a minority like the GOP ruling over the rest of the country. I mean - politics are always broken but this is just nuts. I'm so sorry for you guys.

Thank you for this. Truly. 🙏. There is an insanity in this country that we will have to continue to fight against. Your prayers will be most appreciated. 👍
Thank you for your kindness for the many people in this country who suffer under the push of the ultra-conservative minority.

Anyone else found the timing suspicious in relation to the Jan. Sixth hearing. . . ?
Imagine wanting to deny women abortions, but allowing people to walk around with guns for no reason. Like, how to people think that these should be laws in a developed country? I mean, currently said country is developing backwards
HEAR HEAR...and seem to be loud and proud about it! How did we get here?
Is this really a woman's right since men can get pregnant? I identify as a pregnant woman, I look forward to have my opinion heard. I'm against abortion, and that's from me, a woman.
Nah you're just a weird brit.
We carry guns after beating your silly aces in the revolutionary war. Tyranny is the human way and a strong populace is a strong deterrent.
Let’s use it against them and make them pry our abortion rights from our cold dead hands. Hey, you guys were the ones that said we could have guns 🤷🏽♀️

I've been crying all night and this has been the only thing that cheered me up even a little. Trevor, thank you for your support and Desi, thank you for your rage.
Why are you crying?
It's okay to cry for a little bit. But we need you to fight! If women fight the men will follow, but this threatens womens' rights more than ours. So you need to light the match!! WE can't let these Christian kooks decide they can just take away ANYONE'S rights!
@@waltzguy14151 Men will follow and Christians are kooks? I know I'm going to "trigger" a snowflake here but the 10th amendment really isn't a religious issue and us men don't have to bow down to you. The 10th Amendment demands that all powers not expressly granted in the Constitution are delegated to the states, and no amount of crying and hyperventilating changes that.
Fact: at least 17 Blue states and Washington, D.C., have enacted laws that would automatically keep abortion legal even if Roe is overturned.
Meaning that this SCOTUS decision would have no effect on availability of abortion in those states.
Other states can still make abortion legal or illegal at their state level.
@@waltzguy14151
Facts! Unless a woman has full autonomy over her body, she lacks full citizenship & lives instead as a second-class citizen. This is not about pro-choice, it's about pro-control. If they cared about life they'd care for mothers during pregnancy & infants after they're born. They'd know research indicates that socioeconomic inequality in the United States is likely a primary contributor to its higher mother & infant mortality rate. Perhaps raising these numbers is their goal.
As someone who works with children to overcome trauma, I unfortunately can speak to how what an 11 year old forced to carry to term & birth an infant will plausibly endure -- medical dangers & mentally traumatic. I'm beyond grateful to live in a state that I do, where our governor has already signed legislation keeping abortion legal. My fear is the state will get overwhelmed with out-of-state patients. My hope is providers move here to ensure services are available in a timely manner.
I wish someone would propose a bill requiring vasectomies at puberty, or until the boy/man can prove their ability to support & raise a child rather than continue to blame girls & women forever as if they impregnate themselves. Not that it'd be appropriate, just to prove how ludacris people believing they're entitled to make decisions regarding a complete strangers autonomy is. As you stated, their using religion when we're entitled to freedom of religion is another violation of rights. And with pro-control people wanting date of conception to count as a pregnancy, will father's be obligated to pay child support from date of conception as well. Doubtful, but another relevant point that must be raised.
We cannot let this go.

Oh boy…this comment is sure to wrangle the fake patriots. Here’s the part where they tell you to move to Russia. Sorry, forgot they love Russia.
Its interesting, the people are for this decision really only care about STATE'S rights but not the actual long term implications of rolling this back.
but they don't like states' rights like California's clean air and CO2 emissions laws. Funny, isn't it? almost like they're selective about their principles or something
Very true they don't care about how this is probably going to increase child poverty
The presupposition is actually that states are more localized and are more capable of carrying out the will of their constituents whereas a federal issue is carried out on the will of a majority of the entire U.S. Issues that effect someone in CA aren’t going to effect someone in the Midwest.
States’ rights triumph over women’s rights then?
Where are the “States Lives Matter” protests?
States deserve more rights than women apparently.
Trevor should cover the clause within the appointment of a Justice and how bad behavior let alone criminal behavior would result in disbarment or at the very least removal of the Justice and any judicial rulings made durring or after said behavior would be overturned!
LOL!!! I too once visited Wisconsin and got stuck there for an entire week by accident.
You know, there really shouldn't be anything to make me disappointed in the Republican party anymore. They set the bar so low that they had to drill a hole. So why do I feel disappointed every time a story like this comes out? Le sigh.
Actually, another video from MSNBC posited: what if the leaker isn’t a “liberal” but a clerk working FOR Alito… now this draft decision is out, any changes would expose the internal workings of the court… so this “draft” might end up being the FINAL version thanks to this leak.
So true!!! Some are crazy , and some just don't care about any woman in America.

If they want to take away the right for people to choose if they have a kid or not, then they should be expected to pay for all of the expenses it takes to have and raise a kid at middle class-level in America. Fair is fair.

When this headline broke, I just sat at home in silence for hours. Welcome to the Dark Ages
I feel pained for American people when I hear this, because, just, why?? Do the people in power there genuinely feel no shame in wanting to change the policies to something that will put them even farther behind in terms of human rights than some third world countries? Like they obviously don't care about human rights but come on, they have to care about the national and global embarrassment of it.
Yeah, no. They don't.
I think they are incapable of feeling embarrassment or shame.
They only care about totalitarian control and getting their way, period
First, nothing has happened yet. ( it’s a preliminary decision and those can get revised and altered. It’s not a final judgement) Second, they aren’t proposing to outlaw abortion but to make abortion a state-decided matter. Vote in your local elections.
@@victorlopez9530 It shouldn’t be a state-decided matter in the first place. It should be a person-decided matter.
The voters bear some of the responsibility for this mess. Reversing abortion rights has been part the Republican platform since 1976, there has been plenty of warning. And, when Bush 41 nominated Thomas, refusing to withdraw him from SCOTUS consideration while a woman sat and explained his inappropriate behavior-on tv-the public needed to start thinking about voting for better presidents and getting better justices in the future. That didn't happen.
A truly inconvenient truth.
I know right. And the most recent justice couldn't even define what a woman was. How can she support fighting for women's rights?!?
@@DD-rh2sz And the one before her couldn't tell what individual rights were protected in the US Constitution. Not that that would every come up in her day job, right? But defining a woman - that's job one.
It should also be noted that Thomas played the race card to get the democrats to back off during his confirmation. Considering his judicial philosophy, you wouldn't have expect that but when in need...
This is the legacy of the 2016 election. I'm pretty sure the US was warned at the time that this was at stake.
I see an Emmy in the recent future for my guy. Ay Trevor ntwana ke proud. Flawless delivery...
In all my years, THIS is the first time I have truly lost ALL faith in the SCOTUS. I am so done with them!
That is very surprising. Youve trusted 9 unelected officials to make decisions for hundreds of millions of people until just now?
I'm in my mid 30s and when I was a senior in high-school I did a project on how essential legalized abortions were for "the health, safety, and economic situation of women" weeks of research into the history of abortions went into my project. Seeing Roe about to be overturned now is absolutely disgusting and shows that all those trying to end abortions are blinding themselves to the horrific things women went through prior to Roe. Or they just want more horrific things to happen to women, at this point both are probably true 🤬
Next, the conservatives will try total union busting. Or rescind womens right to vote. Or make slavery legal again. Or make marrying minors legal nationwide. Or bring back dueling (that would backfire badly for them) Or or or... these people are base evil... expect the unexpected.
As much as I hate violence, I feel like the only way to put the American Taliban in their place is violence. They just don't listen to anything else.
Most of the people who want this don’t care. They just want to control women whatever the cost.
@@corbinjohnson3637 Violence only leads to more violence. Many countries in the world have proven this and current atrocities happening today show this. The Civil wars happening throughout the world are showing that violence only makes the conflicts harder to stop and heal from. Plus just fuels opponents to attack even harsher. If this country continues to go down the path of oppression, corruption, and denial of our constitutional and human rights then it may lead to that but that will be at a time where the democratic country we have today no longer exist. I hope it does not come to that.

The Federal Government could lease property on Federal lands inside of anti-abortion states i.e parks, military bases, so-forth, to abortion providers. This would circumvent local laws while providing the service to the local populace. The Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution would protect these providers and their patients from local laws seeking to interfere with the clinics. It would be an easy out for the Federal Government to do this.
As was very well explained in a TED talk by Kathryn Kolbert in Dec 2021, there are 3 main oppositions against abortion, all of which are deeply flawed:
1. Religion - if this is your reason to oppose abortion, then please do not impose your religious beliefs on other people.
2. Protection of infant life - if this is your reason then why are you not fighting against the high infant mortality rate in the US? It's among the highest in the developed world!
3. Female health protection - abortion is a much safer procedure than birth itself!
I hope a lesson Democrats take away from this is the importance of voting in EVERY. SINGLE. ELECTION. From local dog catcher all the way up to the person who gets to pick the person who gets to decide whether you have body autonomy or not!
If not for the Bernie bros, this would not be happening.

Infant and maternal mortality will skyrocket in states with abortion bans. Childhood poverty will increase exponentially. I hope Republicans are ready for the consequences of their actions.
I only wish that was the case, but in my mother's conservative hometown, they used to say, "Keep 'em barefoot and pregnant." Pregnancy was seen as a means to control women.
Unlimited resources to controls woman's private parts.... Privacy, give me a break!
This for them is a holy war. A real one. They've been fighting it block by block for decades, and they are taking control of our civil systems. They have their hands on the controls. They firmly believe they must impose conservative Christian values on the entire country whatever the costs. These are necessary casualties to them; it's a cleansing, a purge. Truly sick people.

They WANT this to happen. More poverty, more desperation, more crime.... more anger. That leads to justifying more "law and order", more prisons, more cop killings... more fascism. Rs WANT people worse off!!!
Ready? Republicans are counting on it. They want future generations of poor and poorly educated people to keep voting Republican using their culture war issues instead of fixing our fundamentally broken education, prison, healthcare, infrastructure, and employment systems.
I’m so confused.-as to how oblivious they are. These people were the same ones saying that masks were tyranny and that it is “my body my choice”
Hypocrisy is like COVID, most people don't know they have it... Cognitive dissonance is a Republican truth to power.

Noah you hit it out of the park. Wow!
Lol it's the guy from that one battle field game.
The horror of all this had already been stated, so I just wanted to comment on Trevor's point about credit cards.
Many people are bringing up The Handmaid's Tale in relation to the abortion debate. I can't help but think if the show when he said that. Before any of the actual handmaid stuff occurred, one of the first things done was shutting down the bank accounts and credit cards of all women in the country. If you were married, it transferred over to your husband. If you were single, or in a relationship with another woman, you had nothing. This was done im secret so the women couldn't leave the country.
It sounds so far-fetched to some, or a work of fiction, but we are getting closer to this every day.
It was even worse for Black enslaved women.
As far fetched as the fight against the Equal Rights Amendment?
As far fetched as a political party trying to overturn an election with false electors I several states?
Stealing two supreme court nominations?
Nothing is impossible, just maybe more or less difficult to achieve due to logistics...
@@ekdaufin1485 totally, but i mean, it's not a competition? this is an assault on women period

Exactly. Limiting women's choices and options in life is just a way to force them into being housewives.
Once again, the cruelty is the point. Don't accept this. Let's get mad, and let's make things right.

@@latortugapicante719 But alot of people a massive amount can't afford to take the time or even have the money to travel someplace where it would be legal to do it. And guess what, its gonna happen, because women of this country are not going to sit still and defer to this.
By the way, prepare for orphanage culture again and kids without parents on the streets everywhere and back alley death of people you know and love in just a few years time. Mark my words, keeping abortion legal has transformed society for the better and stopped alot of suffering that will now come roaring back as a result and that will be with us for generations.
#millionwomanmarch #sexstrike
In the beginning of March I got my tubes removed. I have not wanted children for a little while now and I was tired of failed birth control, pregnancy scares, emergency contraception… so I literally had a part of my body removed because I was scared as to if my right to an abortion would be there or not should birth control fail. I REMOVED A PART OF MY BODY. Being treated as a second class citizen in my own country hurts.
@Anjelica Snorcket🎭 Not when our rights re being stripped away, no.
Why are all the Daily Show videos posted with lower volume? I always have to turn up my volume every time I watch one of their videos. Only them.
The world including the US will always follow class systems and the patriarchy. Of course they want to keep women subservient, but also they know that this will only affect the middle and lower class. Specifically, women. Taking power away from the most marginalized group--poor women. This ruling most certainly will not effect upper class women who can hop on a plane and fly to a doctor in another state. Or, pay a doctor illegally for the service. Many middle class and most lower class women do not have that luxury. They also have less access to birth control, especially now with a lot of Planned Parenthoods gone. It has little to do with "life" and a lot to do with money, control, and power.
So true. That was true fifty years ago.
Why the f*** does the supreme Court deserve the right to decide things privately... They work for the people... They represent the people... Every single thing they think do or whatever on behalf of the people should be live streamed... Why do they deserve privacy when discussing things that are related to the American public... I'm so confused...
