Page 44 - Roe Vs News Today

Im laura ingraham, this is the ingraham angle from washington the night. senators cruz and holly are both here on todays fascinating supreme court hearing on the future of roe vs. wade. plus there is a shocking story out of philadelphia were a democrat city leader seems to be excusing a brutal beating. you will find out why later on in the show. another cringeworthy white house tiktok video, what is it? raymond arroyo has it come all the details. but first, finally putting roe to rest, that is t...

Heartbeat, as you know the constitution gives congress the authority to restrict the jurisdiction of the court, i think we should do that to. it is something sad looking at this court as you guys were going through counting noses, there are only two justices that im confident how they are going to vote on overruling roe and thats justice thomas and justice alito. im hopeful we get to five. but i am not at all certain and that is really unfortunate. you mentioned a minute to go the book i wrote l...

The way. they have important things to say. i just have to turn on their microphones. one of those nights >> i will get out of your way so you can get out of their way my friend. >> thank you, rachel. the supreme court of the united states today, the solicitor general of the state of mississippi kept insisting with the apparent agreement of republican appointed justices that the constitution does not include a right to abortion. but the two women lawyers in the courtroom today defending the ri...

With you this afternoon, and what it looks like is that people would be denied access to reproductive freedom, which means the end of roe vs. wade. and so what we have to do here in congress is to make sure that the senate passes congresswoman judy chus bill, the womens health protection act, so that we can codify into law freedom and access to the full range of reproductive healthcare, which includes abortions. >> well, in the current make-up of the senate, that seems very unlikely that youll g...

Undermining roe vs. wade, creating the potential for the polarizing matter to reshape the electoral battlefield. democrats immediately signalled they would aim to make abortion rights a central focus in next years midterm elections, where their prospects have been viewed as dim. the central question now, according to the "post," would wednesdays bombshell supreme court argument where it indicated it was prepared to sharply cut abortion rights energized democrats after decades when the issue has ...

Happens next. congresswoman, you made that clear and i want to show this is, i think, what most court watchers thinking the best case scenario might be, that roe vs. wade is simply overturned in the 26 states that have declared their intent to do so. if you live in louisiana, youll drive 666 miles to receive reproductive healthcare. you live in florida, youll drive 575 miles. in texas, youll drive 542 miles and in mississippi, youll drive 495 miles, and access to reproductive healthcare is a -- ...

Operatives in the party, i dont think theyre ready. they better get ready before this decision comes out, that operative said. republicans have good reason to worry. poll after poll after poll, for years and years, showed that the gops anti-abortion position now is out of step with voters, including their own. the quinnipiac poll from november shows 63% of americans agree with the 1973 roe vs. wade decision. that 63% includes more than a third of republicans. and as for the supreme court, a deci...

>> well, the best plausible outcome would be that they rule on behalf of people in this country in terms of not taking away reproductive rights, and you know, its my understanding, and im going to verify this, that if they rule on behalf of the mississippi case, that this would be the first time that rights would be taken away, and so i believe that we have to make sure that we move very aggressively forward and organize politically to hold members of the senate accountable to pass the womens he...

Thing about all this is the solution is at the ballot box, and this issue, the ability to make your own decision about your pregnancy, is igniting women around this country, and not just democratic women. republican women, independent women, 80% of people in this country believe these decisions should be made by women, not by politicians, and this is an issue, i believe and certainly hope, is going to energize voters in the midterm elections so we can begin to right the course. >> hi again, ever...

Progressive court group demand justice, and erin carmen is here, senior correspondent for "new york" magazine and coauthor of "notorious rbg." i want to start with you. this is not an original point, its one made by my friend, john heilemann, yesterday but its so striking and its such a proof point of what justice sotomayor was getting at yesterday. when roe vs. wade was decided in 1973, it was a 7-2 decision. at the time, six justices were nominated by republicans. rehnquist, berger, brennan, s...
