He is a heck no on trump care. Im a heck no on this. I think theyve got problems with the vote. Ive personally spoken to 29 of my conservative colleagues who are no on this as of today and were not even counting the moderate republicans who are a no. I think theyve got a lot of arm twisting to do between now and thursday if theyre going to pass this bill in the house. Does he sound scared to you .

alito s confirmation hearing answer. tonight, right now, his answer to questions about roe v. wade. he is the author, now, of this opinion that will overturn roe v. wade. let s listen to what alito said about it in his confirmation hearing. why don t we move on to another important quotation out of casey. quote, a terrible price would be paid for overruling casey, for overruling whoa, we would certainly we can the courts capacity to exercise the judicial power, and to function as a supreme court of a nation dedicated to the rule of law. and to overrule roe under fire, would subvert the court s legitimacy. do you see the legitimacy of the court been involved in the precedent of casey? well, i think that the court, and all the courts.
0 again, it has been a remarkable hour. this is groundbreaking reporting from politico.com. josh goldstein, alexander ward. they have obtained i can t even, i still caught sounds crazy to hear the words coming from my mouth. they ve obtained a graph maturity opinion from the supreme court. this is not a ruling that has been issued, but it is been drafted by conservative justice samuel alito which overrules roe v. wade and planned parenthood versus casey, full stop and completely. and with an exclamation point. effectively clearing the way for republican controlled states and any future republican controlled congress at white house to flat out and completely ban abortion in this country, making it illegal without constraint. we re fundamentally changes as the country, it will fundamentally change the relationship between women and the government. it will fundamentally change the future of every girl in the country, for all our daughters and granddaughters, and women that come after
and there is the perfect execution of the theater of the confirmation hearing performance by a supreme court nominee. didn t it look rehearsed? yeah, it did. and also i don t believe a word of it. i believe if that moment happened, he would have said to himself i m dealing with the most ignorant president in history who doesn t even know the public tradition that we re not supposed to discuss this and i will tell the most ignorant president in history i can t comment on that now, i don t have he would have given his confirmation hearing answer to the question, which is i can t talk about that. although the way lindsey graham, who is after all a lawyer framed that question, there was a lot of wiggle room anyway. he just asked him if he asked you would you overturn it. the question could have been what do you think about roe v. wade and gorsuch could have told him the truth and still he could have given that answer to graham under oath today. right.
