Infanticide is pretty much the 1st Sacrament on the list of things Democrats care about. This was virtually the first thing so many elected Democrats chimed in about after Kennedy announced his retirement
This Supreme Court vacancy puts issues that affect every single American in the balance, from a woman’s constitutionally protected right to make her own health care decisions to privacy, equality and civil rights.

She can couch it in nice terms, but she means abortion.
Kennedy’s retirement could open the door to new attack on legal abortion
President Donald Trump has long vowed to nominate Supreme Court justices who would work to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 ruling that legalized abortion nationwide.
He now has his chance.
The retirement of Justice Anthony Kennedy, a swing vote who sometimes sided with his liberal colleagues on contentious social issues, sets up what is likely to be a bitter political fight over abortion heading into the fall midterm elections.
Abortion rights advocates issued dire warnings.
The “right to access abortion in this country is on the line,” the Planned Parenthood Federation of America said. And Trump’s pledge “should set off alarm bells for anyone who cares about women,” said Nancy Northup, president of the Center for Reproductive Rights, a legal advocacy group.
Anything to protect killing the unborn because people have unprotected, irresponsible sex with people they do not want to have children with, eh?

The Kennedy vacancy brings abortion rights to the fore in the midterms because women can no longer take Roe v. Wade and judicial protection of reproductive rights for granted.

Hurry up an get your abortions now before Trump picks Justice Anthony Kennedy’s replacement, who will likely overturn Roe v. Wade, which will allow states to prohibit abortion.
Retweet if you believe women should have the right to choose.

In all fairness, a lot of abortion foes are thrilled by Kennedy retiring, but, then, they are actually against killing unborn children.
The new GOP is smarter and more determined than the pollyannish and naïve Dems. America in on the verge of becoming a conservative Christian social paradise. No abortions, back of the bus, forced prayer in school, no kneeling Negroes, white people restored to their proper place ruling America.
Once the GOP enacts their new social contract they’ll abandon Trump and his harmful economic and national security fantasies.
It’s out of your hands.
Keep whistling.
It’s a big graveyard.
