Comedian Michelle Wolf saluted abortions on her Netflix show, declaring at the end of a sketch, “God bless abortions and God bless America,” while donning the colors of the American flag and tossing confetti.
In the clip for the July 4 week episode of “The Break with Michelle Wolf,” published Sunday on YouTube, Wolf decried President Trump’s forthcoming Supreme Court pick as someone who would be “almost certain” to rule in favor of overturning Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 ruling that made abortion legal nationwide.
“Look, access to abortion is good and important,” Wolf said. “Some people say abortion is ‘killing a baby.’ It’s not. It’s stopping a baby from happening. It’s like ‘Back to the Future’ and abortion is the DeLorean. And everyone loves DeLoreans.”
Wolf also condemned people who identify as “pro-life.”
“Pro-life is a propaganda term that isn’t real, like healthy ice cream and handsome testicles,” she said, adding that “anti-abortion” is more accurate, but that it is synonymous with “anti-woman.”
“If these people were actually pro-life, they would be fighting hard for healthcare, child care, education, gun control, and protecting the environment,” Wolf said.
Wolf previously made waves with a groan-inducing joke about abortion during the White House Correspondents’ dinner in April that centered on Vice President Mike Pence’s anti-abortion stance.
“He thinks abortion is murder,” Wolf said, “which, first of all, don’t knock it ‘til you try it — and when you do try it, really knock it. You know, you’ve got to get that baby out of there. And yeah, sure, you can groan all you want. I know a lot of you are very anti-abortion. You know, unless it’s the one you got for your secret mistress.”
The vulgar comedy routine drew a wave of backlash, particularly from conservative figures upset with the abortion joke.
