tonight, protesters are out in the streets across the country, after the unprecedented supreme court decision, ending roe v. wade. 50 years after it became law. demonstrations have been growing ever since the ruling was announced this morning. five of the courts conservatives voted to overturn roe. samuel alito who is a draft opinion was leaked last month, wrote in his final decision that roe was egregiously wrong from the start. the ruling automatically clears the way for abortion bans in 13 states. at least six states have already put them into effect. and there are concerns about what this may mean for court decisions on contraception, and gay rights. justice clarence thomas says those should be up for review as well. we ve got a lot to cover tonight, but i want to begin with my friend and colleague, morrow barrick, our nbc news reporter. she s on the ground, at the supreme court, all day long. morrow, you have been among the protesters for hours. what are they telling you
more easily, you know, we are talking on the ballot, on the supreme court, we are now in charge, so we re only having but more couple of years. but at the earliest opportunity, we re gonna do this in the most angry and overwhelming way possible. that s not the way it s been done usually in history. and when it s done this way, just like 1857, it makes americans distrust the supreme court, it sends the prestige way down. they don t care about prestige or reputation. they got what they want. with clarence thomas, in a side car, babbling about were going after contraceptives and a marriage. that s where we are. he doesn t care if protests are going on. he got his wish. the purpose of this is the anger. well, it s working. jennifer, why haven t democrats codify raw roe at any point in the last half century? so there was an effort, early on in the presidency to
you know, a shirt that he waives over his head, that make people feel like, this we elected him because he this might turn him from being a loser, which he is, into a winner and some of their minds. we don t know that yet, but i m a little bit concerned that it strengthens him. obviously, that s not the prime concern for people today. but it s something to monitor. we ll see. there s a whole lot of independence in this country, and they don t think this is a winning day. jennifer palmieri, tim miller, michael beschloss, you made us all smarter tonight. i really appreciate you joining us. our special extended coverage of the end of roe continues after the break. we are going on all night. going on all night. this is something central to a woman s life, to her dignity. it s a decision that she must make him for herself.
