Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) erupted outside the U.S. Supreme Court Friday afternoon following its decision to overturn the unconstitutional Roe v. Wade decision.
The 6-3 decision in Dobbs v.s. Jackson Women’s Health Organization on Friday followed the early May leak of a draft opinion indicating which way the justices would rule, The Daily Wire reported. That leak prompted protesting across the nation, particularly in Washington, D.C. as well as dozens of attacks and vandalism of pro-life organizations, centers, and churches.
Justice Samuel Alito wrote that Roe and a subsequent case, Planned Parenthood v. Casey, which upheld Roe, both must be overturned, and the right to allow, deny, or restrict the right to an abortion must reside with states.
“You see this crowd out here, you ain’t seen nothing yet,” the 83-year-old congresswoman said outside of the nation’s highest court. “Women are going to control their bodies no matter how they try and stop us. The hell with the Supreme Court. We will defy them.”
“Women will be in control of their bodies. And if they think black women are intimidated or afraid, they got another [thing] coming. Black women will be out in droves,” she continued. “We will be out by the thousands. We will be out by the millions. We are going to make sure we fight for the right to control our own bodies.”

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) warned in an intelligence brief on Friday that domestic terrorists could launch attacks due to the ruling by the Court.
The announcement comes after a Left-wing extremist was arrested outside the home of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh earlier this month for allegedly trying to assassinate him and after more than 20 pregnancy resource centers and offices of pro-life groups have been attacked or vandalized in recent weeks.
“Some domestic violent extremists (DVEs) will likely exploit the recent US Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe V. Wade to intensify violence against a wide range of targets,” DHS said. “We expect violence could occur for weeks following the release, particularly as DVEs may be mobilized to respond to changes in state laws and ballot measures on abortion stemming from the decision. We base this assessment on an observed increase in violent incidents across the United States following the unauthorized disclosure in May of a draft majority opinion on the case.”
