Following the Supreme Court of the United States’ ruling in Dobbs that overturns Roe v. Wade, Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt today issued an opinion to the Missouri Revisor of Statutes that “triggers” parts of Missouri’s House Bill 126, effectively ending abortion in the State of Missouri. Missouri is the first state in the country to do so.
"Today, following the United States Supreme Court’s ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, with the issuance of an attorney general opinion, my Office has yet again reinforced Missouri’s dedication to protecting the sanctity of life, both born and unborn. With this attorney general opinion, my Office has effectively ended abortion in Missouri, becoming the first state in the country to do so following the Court’s ruling,” said Attorney General Schmitt. “My Office has been fighting to uphold the sanctity of life since I became attorney general, culminating in today’s momentous court ruling and attorney general opinion. I will continue the fight to protect all life, born and unborn.”
Section B of HB126 states, “The enactment of section 188.017 of this act shall only become effective upon notification to the revisor of statutes by an opinion by the attorney general of Missouri…”
And Section 188.017 that is “triggered” by an attorney general’s opinion states, in part, “Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, no abortion shall be performed or induced upon a woman, except in cases of medical emergency…”
Thus, with the opinion from the Missouri Attorney General’s Office, abortion, except in cases of medical emergency, is now outlawed in the State of Missouri.
The opinion states, “By issuing this Attorney General Opinion No. 22-2022 and providing it directly to you, I hereby provide notification to the Revisor of Statutes, pursuant to § 188.017.4(1), that the United States Supreme Court has overruled, in whole or in part, Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), restoring or granting to the state of Missouri the authority to regulate abortion to the extent set forth in § 188.017, RSMo, and that as a result, it is reasonably probable that § 188.017 would be upheld by the court as constitutional.”

Scuba Steve SigJust think if the "Notorious RBG" hadn't been so sure of a Hillary Clinton win and resigned under Obama's administration instead of trying to wait out Trump's. The Liberals still praise and worship her despite the selfishness. This is just as much of an accomplishment of her failure as Trump's justice appointments.

Southern RebelI think ALL of you are taking the wrong attitudes toward this major crisis! We need to insist that the medical community take this pandemic of "pregnancy infections" seriously in our female community.
1. Find the source of what is causing this infection!
2. Create a vaccine or medical prescription to prevent the infection.
3. Set up a special school program to educate our female children on how to avoid this horrific scourge!
I cannot believe that the medical profession would rather profit from barbaric operational procedures on females rather than dedicate themselves to a solution. The only solution I see is for all of us to don our "cunt caps" and organize a "March on Washington" to demand an "anti-pregnancy" pill!

sdyLawyer Hans Mahncke explains why there is so much confusion re 6-3 or 5-4
https://twitter.com/HansMahnck.../1540361505878704129Roberts is causing massive confusion among the stenographer class who can't figure out if it's a 5-4 or a 6-3 decision. He starts off by stating that he concurs in the judgment. But every word that follows dissents from the judgment. Does that make it a concurrence or a dissent?

Well they're now insisting that gay & trans men can get pregnant, so they may need abortions too. Although, for the life of me, I can't figure out how that's done. Enema maybe?

SIGnifiedRumor is that Robert tried to peel off Kavanagh for a half way decision only eliminating Casey while leaving Roe.
One more time Roberts is political instead of constitutional.

JUNE 24, 2022 PRESS RELEASE
Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued this statement after a Republican-appointed Supreme Court majority voted to overturn Roe v. Wade:
“Today, the Republican-controlled Supreme Court has achieved the GOP’s dark and extreme goal of ripping away women’s right to make their own reproductive health decisions. Because of Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, the Republican Party and their supermajority on the Supreme Court, American women today have less freedom than their mothers.

“This cruel ruling is outrageous and heart-wrenching. But make no mistake: the rights of women and all Americans are on the ballot this November.”
So Nance...where were YOU when I was being FORCED to take a jab with a vial full of shit or LOSE MY JOB?!?!? Where were YOU preaching and advocating for my medical autonomy THEN?? "MY BODY, MY CHOICE"??? Where were YOU, Nance??
You USELESS, DRUNKARD, INCOMPETENT, FU**ING MORON!!!!.....

Which is funny, because even RBG criticized the grounds that Roe was decided on. I'm sure she would have joined the dissent here, but even she admitted it was bad precedent.
The leftists just can't ever admit that: it. was. bad. precedent.

This illustrates exactly why this decision is so important to separation of powers. It will change absolutely nothing in California, the people she purportedly represents. She's mad because federal and state legislators will now have to actually regulate abortion
and they will be accountable to their constituents for what they do. For too long they have punted nearly every difficult policy decision to the Court and used that as cover for their inaction. That process cannot end soon enough, and this is a great step in that direction.
Federalism revived!

Knowing Roe's shaky foundation, I think the left have been expecting this for some time. One reason Illinois opened a big abortion facility a couple years back, across the river from St.Louis. Abortion tourism.

Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt will be worlds better than Roy Blunt in the US Senate!
