| 0:48.0 | So there's a lot going on this week. I don't even know where to begin. |
| 0:51.0 | I guess I'll begin with the Supreme Court argument this week over the abortion issue. |
| 0:56.0 | The Supreme Court for those of you who have been awake have been is considering frankly whether it's who overturned the Roe versus Wade decision which essentially legalized abortion throughout the entire nine months of pregnancy abortion on demand. |

| 2:47.0 | Judicial Watch wrote in its amicus brief far from creating a national consensus Roe threw the states into a 48 year contentious legal battle. |
| 2:59.0 | Even some abortion advocates like Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who is the deceased Supreme Court Justice, |
| 3:09.0 | Ashu the Injudicious method of federalizing abortion as short circuiting and naturally evolving jurisprudence under state laws as federal and state judges attempt to apply this court's precedence, which are kind of all over the place, a national landscape of inconsistent and conclusive on untenable rules have emerged as a national policy abortion jurisprudence is in a word of mess. |
| 3:34.0 | Stubbornly holding onto an unconstitutional precedent will never have a positive outcome. |
