Summary

Two Americas – that is the new reality taking shape in the US. The Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the constitutional right to abortion on Friday has already triggered bans in at least 10 states, with several more expected to follow soon. Others, by contrast – like California, Washington and Oregon – have vowed to protect women’s health and their rights. Demonstrators on both sides have taken to the streets, but one thing is clear: the Court is at odds with public opinion. According to a new poll conducted after Friday’s ruling, 59% of American adults disapprove of overturning Roe v. Wade. Dr. David Eisenberg believes he performed the last non-emergency abortion in the state of Missouri hours before Friday’s ruling and joins the show from St. Louis. Also on today's show: Women's rights activist Ailbhe Smyth, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Evangelical minister Rev. Robert Schenck.
