Current law says bans before viability at 24 weeks are unconstitutional, this case will test that.

The likely outcome of ruling those laws unconstitutional: "See? The Supreme Court works just fine! Now let us keep packing it with conservatives because clearly no matter how many conservatives we put in there, things won't change, right?"

The unlikely outcome where the laws are upheld: "Oh shit, really? Awesome! Time to move against trans people, gay people, black people, Muslims. Let's see what we can REALLY get away with!"

Roberts will not flip on established precedent under these facts. Barrett and Thomas will both argue its not a constitutional right and to get rid of the whole thing and we should get a batshit dissent opinion by them.

If Roberts votes with precedent and the rest vote along ideological lines then a 5-4 decision is reached to uphold the ban.

The most likely justice to flip is Kavanaugh.

Roe was a shaky decision anyway, and congress has done fuck all in the intervening forty-eight years to make it stick.

What five justices giveth, five justices taketh away.
...or I guess it was seven that time.

Not really.
The end of Roe means it goes back to the states, and we pretty much know which ones are going to be dicks about it. The only real winner out of this is going to be Greyhound.

Ignoring the fact states that ban it will punish people that do that.

Except tons of those states that are going to be dicks about it will pass laws stating that it's illegal to go to another state to seek an abortion. There are already several that wish to.

We shouldn't let the states have third world laws.

This may be an Article 5 moment, if SCOTUS overturns.
Should have been anyway.
