Hillary Clinton warns about ‘dark’ and ‘incredibly dangerous’ Roe v. Wade draft [Video]
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
- Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said of the overturned Roe v. Wade ruling, “you have no idea who they will come for next.”
- The former first lady said that Justice Alito’s leaked opinion draft is “dark” and “incredibly dangerous.”
- Clinton warned that more could be at risk than just abortion rights if the Supreme Court overturns the ruling.
Days after the opinion draft on Roe v. Wade was leaked, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned that more could be at risk than just abortion rights if the Supreme Court overturns the ruling.
“This opinion is dark. It is incredibly dangerous and it is not just about a woman’s right to choose. It is about much more than that,” Clinton said during an appearance on “CBS Evening News with Norah O’Donnell.”
“Any American who says, ‘Look, I’m not a woman, this doesn’t affect me. I’m not Black, that doesn’t affect me. I’m not gay, that doesn’t affect me’ — once you allow this kind of extreme power to take hold you have no idea who they will come for next,” the former Democratic presidential nominee said.
Clinton suggested that the Republican Party’s far right would seek other Supreme Court decisions on basic rights to be overruled in the future.
On Monday, Politico published a leaked draft majority opinion, suggesting that the Supreme Court is poised to overturn Roe v. Wade — a 1973 decision that established the right to an abortion. Chief Justice John Roberts confirmed that the draft opinion is authentic, but added that it was not a final decision.
“I hope people now are fully aware of what we’re up against, because the only answer is at the ballot box to elect people who will stand up for every American’s rights,” Clinton told O’Donnell.
Clinton lost to Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election. The former president appointed three justices to the Supreme Court, giving it a solid conservative majority.
“I warned about it in the campaign,” Clinton said. “I could see that the man I was running against would literally do anything to get the votes of the extreme faction of the Republican Party, who were willing to totally upend precedent and deny women their rights. So I did warn about it. But you know, it’s hard to warn in the abstract, and I think a lot of people would say, ‘Well, that’ll never happen.’”

Abortions after 15 weeks, murder. I find it hard to see so many black people supporting this bitch after all she’s done to keep them down.
They need to look up all about Margaret Sanger. Abortion was used to keep the number of inferior black people controlled. Don’t forget her speech that she has nothing against blacks, “”they just need to learn to heel””. Margaret along with Hillary and Nancy P. Belong to this organization that even has their own KKK female association. Margaret may be dead, but Pelosi and Clinton were the last two that won the M Sanger awards! How come these women(?) haven’t been held accountable for all the damage they’ve done to the American people?
Both of them rode along on the Obama/Biden administration and didn’t do much for the blacks or whites in poverty. AND NO SHE WOULD NOT MAKE A GOOD PRESIDENT

Excellent post. There is none so blind as those who WILL NOT see. It seems as though there are so many, who crave the master class to tell them when to blow their nose!!! It makes me so sad for the children, who will grow up believing so much that simply is not true.

Hillary (Killary) Clinton is the very definition of “dark and dangerous”. Many people with ties to Clinton have met untimely and suspicious deaths. Clinton allowed patriots and citizens of the U.S.A. to be viciously slaughtered by terrorists in Benghazi on her watch, never offering nor attempting to render safety, security or aid to those doomed souls. Apparently it “didn’t affect” her so she did nothing and faced no consequences for her cowardly inaction. Clinton has gotten away with all her misdeeds for far too long and still through her egotistical self-importance attempts to remain relevant on the political stage. Hillary Clinton’s only interest is self-serving enriching herself monetarily and reaping perceived power “by any means necessary”. Clinton is corrupt and absolutely evil.

Evil and corrupt Hillary Clinton is really saying is who knows what her left wing Democrat swamp will do next if Roe V Wade is overturned. They want you to know is not only do they plan to approve all abortions but control every aspects of our lives, attack our religious beliefs and take over our country. Americans need to wake up and stop the Democrats corrupt agenda because if not we will face our maker soon.

What skillary was saying had nothing to do with the Republicans. The demoncrats are the ones who are spying on everyone and if they are not stopped, they will keep trying to take away our rights. I believe we will be heading to another war here in the United States. Plus why are they so determined to keep abortions legal? Because of money. And you can tell who is being paid. The demoncrats could care less about the women.

Seriously, Hildebag???? Nobody could be that ignorant. Must have forgotten SCOTUS only rules on what is Constitutional. Overturning Roe does not outlaw abortion, it simply leaves it up to the states. Government should never fund murder.

She is basically giving a heads up to everyone about what the demonrats will do! Just like the lie about a video against Islam, it was a set up to take attention away from Obama stealing the rigged election! And—- that sorry bitch or Obama ever apologized to the families of those killed in Ben Ghazi! They in effect left them to die unprotected because of an Obama lie! They should be hanged in front of the White House for the world to see what happens to thieves and traitors!

I would give it all up, if they would only put Hillary in an orange jumpsuit and send her to San Quentin, where they have a working gas chamber.
