White House Blasts Abortion 'Activists' as 'Consistently Out of Step'
As the Democratic Party continues to make a great deal of racket regarding the recent overturning of Roe v. Wade by the Supreme Court, some in the White House appear to be growing rather annoyed with their activism.
The SCOUTS ruling has been a lightning rod of controversy on the left side of the aisle, with a number of heated narratives being bandied about by perturbed progressives. This has the White House issuing a stern new warning about what it means to be a Democrat, and not everyone is taking the comment in stride.

Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned the constitutional right to an abortion on June 24, while progressive Democrats have called for a number of responses, including packing the Supreme Court, ending the Senate filibuster, declaring a public health emergency, and launching abortion clinics on federal property.
“Joe Biden’s goal in responding to Dobbs is not to satisfy some activists who have been consistently out of step with the mainstream of the Democratic Party,” outgoing White House communications director Kate Bedingfield fired back in a statement Saturday. “It’s to deliver help to women who are in danger and assemble a broad-based coalition to defend a woman’s right to choose now, just as he assembled such a coalition to win during the 2020 campaign.”

“The president has been showing his deep outrage as an American and executing his bold plan — which is the product of months of hard work — ever since this decision was handed down,” she said.
While no politicians were mentioned by name, President Biden has been routinely lambasted by far-left politicians such as Senator Elizabeth Warren and House Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, both of whom have specifically suggested that the Commander in Chief could or should be doing more to undermine the judicial branch’s decision.
