Roe v Wade was not overturned

 SCOTUS doesn’t rule the Texas law is Constitutional. It actually followed precedent by not ruling on the law until there is a person with standing bringing a case. Ultimately the Supreme Court will find the Texas abortion law unconstitutional: “…we stress that we do not purport to resolve definitively any jurisdictional or substantive claim in the applicants’ lawsuit…this order is not based on any conclusion about the constitutionality of Texas’s law, and in no way limits other procedurally proper challenges…”

Turkey - This order concerns whether a court can enjoin the law before any final review on the merits. Any challenge to the law could be expedited on appeal.

The problem is that the challengers to the Texas law picked defendants (a state court judge and a court clerk) that do not enforce the law. Indeed, they appear virtually random.
