0:00.0 | Breaking news out of the Supreme Court Politico is reporting a leak of the Supreme Court's opinion |
0:06.8 | in dobs versus Jackson Women's Health. This is the decision that could potentially overrule |
0:13.2 | Roe v Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. This is the decision that could potentially |
0:18.6 | obliterate the completely fictional national right to an abortion that was established in 1973. |
0:25.2 | The leak itself is shocking, unprecedented. You've never seen this kind of a breach of trust |
0:32.0 | from the Supreme Court, but from the decision that we've got. This is just a 98-page draft |
0:38.6 | of Justice Sam Alito writing the opinion of the court. According to this leak, if the leak is legit, |
0:45.4 | the Supreme Court is voting to overrule Roe v Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. The court is |
0:52.8 | voting to overrule national abortion. Most important decision in my lifetime, if this is legit, |
1:00.0 | from the draft. Quote, Roe was egregiously wrong from the start. Its reasoning was exceptionally weak |
1:07.2 | and the decision has had damaging consequences. And far from bringing about a national settlement |
1:12.3 | of the abortion issue, Roe and Casey have inflamed debate and deepened division. We hold that Roe |
1:19.1 | and Casey must be overruled. The Constitution makes no reference to abortion, and no such right |
1:25.7 | is implicitly protected by any constitutional provision, including the one on which the defenders |
1:31.2 | of Roe and Casey now chiefly rely. The due process clause of the 14th Amendment. That provision |
1:36.8 | has been held to guarantee some rights that are not mentioned in the Constitution, but any such |
1:42.8 | right must be deeply rooted in this nation's history and tradition and implicit in the concept of |
1:48.0 | ordered liberty. The right to abortion does not fall within this category until the latter part |
1:53.7 | of the 20th century such a right was entirely unknown in American law. The Constitution does not |
2:00.8 | prohibit the citizens of each state from regulating or prohibiting abortion. Roe and Casey |
2:06.2 | are regated that authority. We now overrule those decisions and return that authority to the people |
2:14.0 | and they're elected representatives. Obviously, if this is legit, obviously this is the right decision. |
