Unless . . .
. . . maybe the politicians would come after all female hormonal treatments-- HRT on the chopping block too?
Yikes.
HRT would be gone too.

I don't know if people who post this sort of thing really don't understand what's going on or think it just won't happen or what. Like the person upthread who appears to have never heard of Griswold v. Connecticut and the right to privacy. Educate yourselves.
You've gotta understand that the Supreme Court, and especially this Supreme Court, is a political institution, the foundation of which was laid a generation ago. Due to their lifetime tenure and ivory tower status in the USA, they don't really ever have to feel the true effects of their rulings, which they cloak in ridiculous language in order to dress up the fact that they want to turn back the clock on jurisprudence in this country to 50 or 60 years ago. And they are succeeding.
There is a way to stop it, but it involves making the decision to not support Republicans until Republicans pledge to accept the will of the people. And holding Democrats feet to the fire until that will is done.
This is awfully condescending from someone who didn't understand my point. I worked in politics for several decades, I understand how the system works thanks. Republicans can try to pass whatever they want, but when nearly 100% of Americans utilize something they won't very very far. This will be the end of the party.
I don’t think PP was condescending and I wish I could agree that banning contraceptives would be the end of the GOP.
The majority of Americans also support abortion rights but that hasn’t stopped the GOP from passing bans on many states. They are even passing travel restrictions in some states. People thought restricting travel was far-fetched too, but here we are. There have been so many points along the way where whatever the GOP was doing seemed like a bridge too far and it was going to “be the end of the party.” From the silly things like inflating inauguration crowd size to the serious (Roe, January 6, and too many others to list), all were thought to be some sort of the end of the party. It wasn’t the end of the party.
GOP is gonna GOP unless they are voted out.
I’ll do you one further. The GOP is gonna GOP until they are kicked out. Out of America, out of this world. Those cockroaches sure are tenacious.
The thing is that if the GOP weren’t so successful in hacking people’s brains, people would be voting for the Democratic Party by like four to one. The GOP would be exposed as the shell it is if not for their treasonous relationship with Russia and also with the media doing the GOP’s bidding.

I’ve been waiting for the party to split in two and therefore become unelectable in our first-past-the-post system for almost a decade, meanwhile we’ll be stuck with their Levitican federal judges for the rest of my life.
This is the first post Roe presidential.
That wasn’t my point. Overturning Roe was the only thing that the two clear factions of the Republican Party still agreed on all this time. There are hardly any others that they have in common which is why the House right now is such a mess with normie bad Republicans who can’t agree with fascist horrendous Republicans. The party still hasn’t ended.
