What will happen if and when Roe v. Wade is overturned aside from the law changing, e.g. what are the social repercussions we can expect and how will hospitals respond? And is there anyway the Supreme Court can be overruled or states can throw out their decision?

Irony: The church low key teaches that the Civil War happened to punish the United States for what it did to Mormons. But the Civil War also led to the creation of the 14th amendment, which has been used by the Supreme Court in decisions in that go against the church’s teachings.

Abortion, gay marriage, etc. So I guess the “punishment” from God for persecuting Mormons also became a roundabout way for the Mormons to perceive being “persecuted” some more by the “unraveling of society’s morality”.

How can one verify US Supreme Court decision from 1940-50s in regards to emigration of Kalmyks into United States?

I found information after WW2 ended, US forces had taken prisoner German army foreign volunteers of Kalmyk origin in Croatia. Then they were placed in "the camp for displaced persons" in Munchen, then applied for immigration into 17 countries but were rejected until they managed to move to America, where they managed to stay despite the Asian immigration exclusion. This happened thanks to the efforts of Tolstoy Foundation, who helped Kalmyk family of Remelevyh (Ремелевых) obtain citizenship with US Sumpreme Court recognizing Kalmyks as Europeans because of 350 years of living in European Russia.

Also: "They found an ally in the United States Attorney General who argued that since Kalmykia is in European Russia, the Kalmyks are Europeans not Asians, going so far as to insist that they are “Caucasians”—which is silly, but so is racism.

I appreciate any help or advice on how non-professional historian can find this specific SCOTUS decision and/or anything else related to this story. I haven't had much luck exploring http://www.supremecourt.gov

[EVENT] [NEWS] Brazilian Media Praises Supreme Court's Decision to Uphold Abortion Laws; "Better than the United States of America."

Today Brazil's highest court has ruled on a case testing the country's resolve to what is considered by many in the world as an ethical practice while balancing the spiritual needs of Brazilians. Notably the Roman Catholic Church's strict stances on abortion. Currently Brazilian law permits abortion only if the woman's life is at risk, and if the pregnancy was causss by rape.

> "When the mother's life is at stake — we must save the mother — better to knowingly save at least one person than take the risk of losing two, or three, even if the fetus's chances are high. We cannot throw around an already born person's life. God surely understands, and I believe encourages responsible, and ethical abortion, because God is in the business of saving lives."

> — Madam Chief Justice Mendez

With abortion being an international topic of discussion, especially now, Brazilian media has flooded the networks with praise for Brazil's model. Furthermore, with the more liberal oriented SDC on social issues, talks are proceeding with permitting abortion within the first tgeee months of pregnancy due to a 2016 Supreme Court ruling. However, the National Congress at that time had voted to make abortion law stricter. Nevertheless, almost all media sources criticized the United States specifically for its seemingly loose enforcement of its abortion laws. While the US Supreme Court had ruled the banning of abortion illegal, the US has done nothing to actually enforce its own Court's ruling.

The media also criticized the Latin Republic's new laws banning abortion – and pornography, though not as heavily as they did with perceived US hypocrisy. In fact, some have even praised the Latin Republic's idea of latin cooperation.
