Pro-abortion protests erupted in cities across the country on Friday evening. Thousands gathered in the nation’s capital alone, as activists burned the American flag and called to burn precincts “to the ground” in the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade.
Holding a sign reading, “They cannot control our bodies,” protesters in D.C. took it to the streets — an action far-left lawmakers actively called for — shouting “every city, every town, burn the precinct to the ground”:

The protests follow the Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision overturning Roe v. Wade, kicking restrictions on abortion back to the states. Notably, three of the five justices who voted to overturn Roe were nominated by former President Donald Trump — Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, and Amy Coney Barrett.
President Biden’s Department of Justice has also vowed to “use every tool at our disposal” to protect a woman’s ability to terminate her pregnancy.
