(FOX NEWS) – Masses of protesters converged on cities across the country Friday after the Supreme Court effectively struck down the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, siding with the state of Mississippi in the Dobbs v. Jackson case – with many acting as if abortions had been banned nationwide.

In response, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., explained to Fox News that in reality “nothing has been banned” – as the ruling simply reserved the regulatory power over abortion laws to the state legislatures, as prescribed by the 10th Amendment for those powers not explicitly enumerated in the Constitution.

“What we’ve seen over the last few hours is how, unfortunately, American political coverage has become childish and unserious,” Rubio said.
