What does today's ruling do to the relationship between you, as an American woman, and your government?
@MaddowBlog Between me, as an American woman and my government? I and my sisters-in-arms protected our government during our most energetic and fearless years, went to war for it, and it thanks us by reducing us to walking incubators ??? Really ???
@MaddowBlog It really makes me wonder how long my right to vote, own property and act as a full citizen under all the rest of the laws will be protected. Pretty sure my inability to procreate puts me in a low value category to the new bosses at scotus otherwise.
@MaddowBlog So what happens to the 500k unwanted babies each year? Has anyone thought this through?? 🤔
@MaddowBlog Exactly. SCOTUS ruling had nothing to do with religion. It was all about relegating women to second-class status.
@MaddowBlog Great, we have effectively re-invented witch hunts in the 21st Century.
@MaddowBlog This ISN’T my gov’t. The country I grew up in, while not perfect, was working hard to protect the rights of ALL people, no matter the race, gender or religious beliefs. This GOP autocracy we now live in is NOT the promising country/gov’t WE WORKED To create for our Grandkids
@MaddowBlog This is a sad commentary on what lying Supremes did to gain control over US women! It appears more women will be imprisoned as B-4 even if they wanted a child! Women voting for Republicans has caused great horrors to come upon women! I lost all respect Supreme Court & GOPs!
@MaddowBlog This is no longer America. If I wasn’t already old, I’d move somewhere else. If I didn’t live here, I wouldn’t want to even visit. It’s not just the loss of rights to half of the population. It’s the gun nuts and the religious nuts.
@MaddowBlog I was so taken with your opening segment that I was waiting to watch the rerun and it's not on. Disappointing @MSNBC. The history is very important and even @BeschlossDC said so. Thank you, Rachel, for addressing us on this very important night. I appreciate your insight.
@MaddowBlog A consequence of this is that pregnant women will not announce they're pregnant/seek medical advice until much later in the pregnancy for fear of being accused if they miscarry. Death of the mother due to medical complications will soar as a result. Pro-life - what a joke.
@MaddowBlog It's supposed to be of us; by us; for us. It's lost it's way.
@MaddowBlog I think the timing of the roe decision is partly to distract from the jan 6 coup and how close and so many people are caught up in the illegalities of all that!!! Otherwise the court would have certainly waited till after midterms!
@MaddowBlog Fight Like a Girl!
@MaddowBlog Good questions to ask the sex offenders on the UN-#SCOTUS or the religious zealot with 7! Kids. Then again, most of them lied under oath.
@MaddowBlog Makes me less likely to pay taxes. If I even have time to do them with so many kids running around.
@MaddowBlog @joncoopertweets Vote blue! When the government says you have to carry a baby that was conceived by rape and incest it’s time to vote blue! Has nothing to do anymore with Christianity!
@MaddowBlog @grandmagrit Women are now in an abusive relationship with government. The GOP wants total control over our bodies and to subjugate our will to theirs. They want us meek and subservient. THEY HAVE FAILED. WHAT THEY HAVE ACTUALLY DONE IS WOKEN US UP, I PROMISE YOU WE WILL FIGHT FOR OUR RIGHTS
@MaddowBlog It has made me equal parts furious and heart-broken for every woman in this country. Please, please, please post a resource of organizations we can support to help women travel to get the care they deserve. How can I become someone's "Auntie"?
@MaddowBlog It’s barbaric what has happened, I can’t even imagine what this will do to some women or young girls. The Supreme Court has begun to be the new Taliban, along with Republican states who now have the power to say what a woman can and cannot do with their own body
@MaddowBlog @BarbBarbbatiste This is horrific. ⬆️⬆️⬆️
@MaddowBlog I gave up on our weak government back when Trump said he was running for President. That our government sat back and allowed him to run, win and invade the WH has made me a not as Proud American. And to think that he can run again with all we know of his CRIMES. Its sick/wrong.
@MaddowBlog This reminds me of NAZI Germany before WWII!! We are on a slippery slope .
@MaddowBlog SCOTUS has become a political arm of the extreme right wing Republicans. 3 were nominated by a twice impeached potus and lied during their confirmation hearings. There must be accountability.
@MaddowBlog "Our Government" the "We the People" government is dead. Period.
@MaddowBlog Ladies it's time to vote like your life depends on it Because it does .
@MaddowBlog When I was 40 I got pregnant. New relationship with father. In career transition. New to the town so not many close friends. No family support. As I considered what to do, miscarried. Had D&C at hospital. So exactly within Rachel's scenarios
@MaddowBlog Maternal mortality rates are already high 😭 cdc.gov/nchs/data/hest…
@MaddowBlog not the "government". Scotus and the mf Magats.
