| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Democracy-ish. I am Danielle Moody. |
| 0:13.6 | I'm Wajahat Ali. |
| 0:16.3 | And Wajah, well, welcome to the hellscape that is America. Everything that we thought was just in theory that we'd lose Roe v. Wade because, you know, I don't know, we believed, I guess, Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearing, Lord knows why. |
| 0:33.9 | We believed Amy COVID-Barritt during her confirmation hearing. God knows why. We believe Neil Gorsuch during his confirmation hearing where all of them said that Roe v. Wade was precedent. And apparently at that time, precedent actually matters. It doesn't seem to matter now after we have seen the draft decision penned by Justice Alito. What do you make of |
| 0:58.5 | the pearl clutching that is happening at the hands of the Susan Collins of the world and the |
| 1:04.8 | Lisa Murkowski's of the world who are saying, I just, I don't know how this could have happened. |
| 1:10.9 | Ah, yes, the maidens of white supremacy, clutching their white pearls, just feigning this type |
| 1:18.0 | of shock at how it could happen that the Supreme Court justices who are handpicked by |
| 1:22.5 | the Federalist Society, these right-wing hacks by this right-wing organization specifically vetted to do this job, |

| 1:32.9 | I think now, Danielle, I might actually take Republicans literally and seriously. |

| 1:39.0 | I mean, I guess I had to wait until this. |
| 1:41.0 | I mean, I guess it wasn't the insurrection that did it. |
| 1:43.9 | It wasn't when Donald Trump said that there were insurrection that did it. It wasn't when |
| 1:44.4 | Donald Trump said that there were good people on both sides. It wasn't when we heard the flip-flop |
| 1:49.4 | tapes of Kevin McCarthy. It wasn't any of those things. I guess it's now. Now I have to understand |
| 1:55.1 | that we're dealing with not your father's Republican party. This is just a draft opinion that leaked. |
| 2:00.7 | And the most important thing that we have to talk about is the decor. Her father is a Republican party. This is just a draft opinion that leaked. |
| 2:05.2 | And the most important thing that we have to talk about is the decorum. |
| 2:08.5 | Because how dare the decorum be breached? |
| 2:10.9 | How dare somebody leak this? |
