Except if you have an abortion. Then laws don't matter.

...this makes zero sense.

I would like to highlight the small bit of positive in the American system. I don't support the removal of abortion law, nor do I like mixing religion with politics. But, due to the system that exists in the USA, even though the government removed the right to abortion, the individual states can still support it and form their own laws around it. However, a similar situation in other countries would result in complete removal without any option.

Give it like a year, I promise you it will be banned federally

A bill banning abortion nationally would need 60 votes in the Senate, which it will not get.

They already started this work yesterday: https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2025/01/22/congress/se...

They're persistent - I wouldn't be surprised if some senators are found to be unamerican and impeached

Was Iraq also talk when US invaded it in violation of international law? Not to mention overthrowing democratically elected governments in South America.

Which countries did China invade in the last 3 decades?
