5 Ways Overturning Roe v Wade Means the Battle for Preborn Babies’ Rights Is Just Beginning

Overturning Roe v. Wade was never the end goal for the pro-life movement. It’s a major game-changer, the biggest of them all, but it also represents the beginning of a long and destructive war that will tear the nation apart.

I’m okay with this. We need some real battles to fight instead of the theoretical and political battles that have been waged on abortion for the past 49 years.

By real battles, I’m not suggesting violence in any way. The battles we are about to fight will continue to be political and cultural, but we are also going to have to fight on new fronts that hitherto have been dormant. There is no time to celebrate the victory of the pro-life movement. Now is the time to change hearts and minds.

That’s the most important takeaway from today’s episode of The JD Rucker Political Report on America Out Loud Talk Radio. The biggest political battle surrounding abortion is about to be won as soon as the Supreme Court releases its decision, but it will only spark much bigger battles that will not be relegated to Washington DC alone.

Here are five aspects of the new abortion war that are now beginning to ramp up…

• State battles have new meaning – With the federal overreach out of the way, the battle at the state level is going to ramp up. Every state will need its own abortion laws, and how those are crafted will be determined by how hard we pressure RINOs in red states and how much support we give conservatives in blue states.
• Personhood has a new angle – Personhood has always played an important role in trying to fight Roe v Wade, but now it is going to shift to being more on the cultural front. We need to convince people that fighting for these little pre-born people is a worthy cause. With Roe v Wade in place, many stood on the sidelines. We have an opportunity to bring more fighters into the fold.
• Attacks on the judiciary have a new focus – If you thought Democrats wanted to influence and even change the face of the judiciary before, we are about to see that ramp up tenfold. They will do everything in their power to have Joe Biden nominate more justices before Democrat control of the Senate is removed. Then, we will see them pushing or it any time they have control of the Senate and White House going forward.
• Elections have a new focus – Abortion has always been an election, but now it’s going to be giving increased significance, especially for state elections. We need to support legislators and governors who will stand behind the pre-born.
• Faith has a new front to defend – They hated our faith before. They will use abortion to attack it even further. Lest we forget, the ability to kill pre-born babies is at the forefront of their attacks on the faith. We need to ramp up our defense and improve our counterattacks.

This battle is just getting started. Saying so is often very cliche, but it has extreme significance now. In the abortion battle, no truer words have ever been spoken.
