One of the more insufferable liberal hacks out there, NBC correspondent Yamiche Alcindor grotesquely minimized life on Tuesday in the wake of Monday’s leaked draft Supreme Court opinion overturning Roe v. WadeLamenting “women of color…will be forced to have pregnancies that they cannot afford…the will then turn into children” and shared our feelings with other women who believed in the end RoeIs “like someone has died.”
Thanks to this Jackson, Mississippi tweet that was posted from the location of an abortion clinic in Jackson, Mississippi (the second take), the latter result is possible.Dobbs against Jackson Women’s Health Organization):
We are sure it attracted a lot of responses. Twitchy summarized them as best they could. Click here.
Alcindor followed that up with a liveshot on MSNBC’s MTP Daily, telling fill-in host Kristen Welker that “while women are getting the service that they need today, and they’re getting abortion today, their question is how long?”
Notice how liberal media never showed compassion or concern towards babies who have lost their lives, as is typical of most coverage of this issue.
Alcindor suggested those in Washington are detached from reality, lamenting those in D.C. are “talking about legislation and talking about what could come next” while “on the ground, where the policy meets the people,”The curse of the children is a curse on women:
[T]hey’re saying…women here are going to be put in danger because they’re going to be forced to have pregnancies and have children that they simply cannot afford, or that they simply do not want that it’s not their choice anymore.
After she threw in leftist fear-mongering that gay marriage could be overturned, Welker was in agreement, calling her report “really fascinating.”
Alcindor then relayed another story about privilege. She said that one woman was the only one she had ever spoken to. “had tears in her eyes and said that she went up to the volunteers to thank the — thank them for their work because she said her as a woman who’s an attorney who has the means and resources that she’ll always be able to get an abortion because she’ll be able to fly to one of what they’re calling the 13 Safe States.”
Alcindor’s perverted view of life itself reached its peak when she griped about “pregnancies” resulting in “children” that parents won’t want. Welker, naturally, was touched by the experience and thanked Alcindor. “[laid] out the real-world impact” (click “expand”):
ALCINDOR: But for a lot of vulnerable women, women who are poor, women who are — women of color, they will be forced to have pregnancies that they cannot afford to terminate and pregnancies that will then turn into children that they cannot afford. And one other thing, someone told me here, that Mississippi as a state doesn’t have a lot of safety nets, that the women who are going to be forced to have these children, they’re going to have a really hard time trying to support those children with a state that has not done a lot of the things to extend the sort of benefits that women need in order to get more help and more care to be able to really support their families.
WELKER: Yamiche has done a great job laying out the impact in real life.
MSNBC’s ghoulish reduction of children to the status of burdens to humanity was made possible thanks to the endorsement of advertisers such as Dove, Fidelity, and NutriSystem. Follow the links to see their contact information at the MRC’s Conservatives Fight Back page.

Eastern, 1:10 PMKRISTEN WELKER : Yamiche. Let me turn to you. Of course you are here in Mississippi. That is the state that filed this lawsuit to the Supreme Court. What will happen to Mississippi, if the draft is accepted? Pete Williams’ report seems very probable at this stage.
YAMICHE ALCINDOR: Well, I’m standing here, right nearby the woman’s health clinic — the Women’s Health Organization. This clinic is actually the last one in Mississippi. It is also the one that was at the centre of the Supreme Court Case. And people on the ground here tell me that while there is the thing that there — while women are getting the service that they need today, and they’re getting abortion today, their question is how long? That brings me to my original question. I understand that “if” is the correct answer. RoeThis would result in the clinic being quickly closed down. Another thing would occur is that access to abortion for women living in the area (both in Mississippi and in nearby states) would be severely restricted. These trigger laws would be in effect for at least 13 states. But then also, when you ask — add to that, there’s a research institute that studies reproductive rights and they say up to 26 states would immediately ban or heavily restrict abortion if RoeThe decision was reversed.
I should be telling you that I’m talking to people here on the ground, the ACLU of Mississippi, they are saying that they’re devastated and gutted by this. The only alternative legal avenue, should this be overturned, is to codify. Roe v. WadeThis is something you mentioned the president was discussing today. A volunteer from this area said to me that they don’t call it the pink home because of its bright color. She also stated that it would be detrimental for the care and welfare of the pink house as well as the many women that depend on it. So as in Washington, they’re talking about legislation and talking about what could come next. Here on the ground, where the policy meets the people, they’re saying the bench is not going to be quick enough, that women here are going to be put in danger because they’re going to be forced to have pregnancies and have children that they simply cannot afford, or that they simply do not want that it’s not their choice anymore.
I should also note that I’ve been talking to some supporters of this law, some people who are opponents of abortion rights, and they tell me that not only are they celebrating what is — what is coming from the Supreme Court, they also say that they’re turning their gaze towards same-sex marriage. Just a few minutes ago, I spoke to someone who had been protesting for many decades. That’s right, decades outside of this clinic and I said, well, what are you going to do if this clinic shuts down and if you get what you want? He told me that he’s going to turn his attention to now protesting same-sex marriage and hoping that the Supreme Court will then overturn that. So both sides of the political aisle here, as the midterms are approaching, they’re both looking at what’s on the horizon, and that is squarely same-sex marriage.
WALKER: It’s really fascinating. Yamiche: Look forward. And just broadly speaking, it’s not just Mississippi, and you touched on this, it’s really the entire region there that could be impacted, particularly for those who live in incredibly rural areas, right?
ALCINDOR: That’s right. Talking to the volunteer that has been escorting, she says defending women that are going into this clinic, she says the women that come here, they’re not going to be able to just get in their car and go somewhere else because if you look at this state, there’s going to be Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, Alabama, all of the states that are surrounding Mississippi right now, they also would be banning abortion and I talked to another woman who had tears in her eyes and said that she went up to the volunteers to thank the — thank them for their work because she said her as a woman who’s an attorney who has the means and resources that she’ll always be able to get an abortion because she’ll be able to fly to one of what they’re calling the 13 Safe States, places that might continue to have an abortion like California or New York.
But for a lot of vulnerable women, women who are poor, women who are — women of color, they will be forced to have pregnancies that they cannot afford to terminate and pregnancies that will then turn into children that they cannot afford. And one other thing, someone told me here, that Mississippi as a state doesn’t have a lot of safety nets, that the women who are going to be forced to have these children, they’re going to have a really hard time trying to support those children with a state that has not done a lot of the things to extend the sort of benefits that women need in order to get more help and more care to be able to really support their families.
