Roe v. Wade is based on the 'right to privacy.' If the majority opinion by SCOTUS suggests that the constitution does not protect the right to privacy... that affects a WHOLE lot of other decisions. Buckle up - this is the beginning of a lot of potential ugliness.

A thread.
Reading through the leaked decision. Alito makes it clear that Obergefell and Lawrence will be overturned. This means same sex marriage will be illegal again in 30+ states, and homosexuality illegal in 12. It's not if, but when. This is a stage 5 cancer diagnosis for LGBT rights.

I don’t understand the impetus to blame women and voters for SCOTUS gutting constitutional rights and returning us to dangerous times in the blink of an eye. We need to talk about the danger of 9 people having that power in the first place and what we must now do to circumvent it

Today is a good day to read about the Jane Collective, a group who successfully ran an underground abortion clinic in Chicago.

In May ‘72, they were raided by CPD. In Jan 73 the SCOTUS legalized abortion, and all charges were dropped against the Janes. pic.twitter.com/whpFygfQI6
For Jews who can become pregnant, access to abortion services is a religious *requirement*, and has been for thousands of years. Surprised? Let's dig into some of the texts 🧵 1/

For those of us who are Jewish, abortion rights are a religious freedom issue. A ban on abortions violates our religious beliefs.

Justice Alito's invocation of Sir Matthew Hale in his leaked majority opinion is so, so much more fucked up than people realize. I'm a professor with a PhD, and my area of expertise happens to be women and gender in the early modern era (1500-1700). Here is what you need to know. pic.twitter.com/MfMSi1g4D2

On the morning of Jan. 6, Ginni Thomas—wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas—endorsed the protest demanding that Congress overturn the election, then sent her “LOVE” to the demonstrators, who violently overtook the Capitol several hours later. https://t.co/4vaJpg9zWY

As Democratic Party leadership condemns the SCOTUS ruling, a reminder that Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer, and Jim Clyburn are all endorsing anti-choice Henry Cuellar in his primary against @JCisnerosTX in #TX28. Clyburn is doing a campaign rally in San Antonio with Cuellar tomorrow.

The fact the political establishment was so spooked by protests at Kavanaugh’s home that, within hours, they passed a bill to expand security for SCOTUS is actually further evidence that protesting at their homes is effective

The pearl-clutching over Roe protests brings to mind Act Up in the 1980s. They were roundly condemned for their "tactics" but they changed the way people thought about the AIDs crisis. Act Up made folks *very* uncomfortable. We need that energy.

The Catholic church purchased the house next door to the clinic. They called the house a church for tax purposes, but really it was a fake health clinic.
#AbortionIsADisabilityRightsIssue 🧵: I and my spouse are both Little People and both support abortion rights for everyone, but I want to highlight why access is especially important for us dwarfs. First, there is the issue of “double dominance.”

Very glad I don't live somewhere like China or Cuba and instead live in a country founded on DEMOCRACY where most laws are decided on by a council of unelected wizards doing seances to ask the ghost of Thomas Jefferson what he thinks
