Dismantling Rights: Our Supreme Court in Action

Today's decision--overruling Roe v. Wade--was a first--taking away constitutional rights previously granted to Americans. Of course, it's only women's rights to bodily autonomy; denying women rights is in the current Republican Party's DNA.

I've read opinions and analyses that are more thoughtful than my reaction, which is to curse the justices. Five of them are reactionary: out of touch with the American people on cases about gun safety and women's health/rights. 

Between this Supreme Court and insurrection attempts by Trump and company, I'm afraid for/of my country.
