OA593: Roe Was Never About a 'Right to Abortion'
Added 2022-05-06 05:07:07 +0000 UTCIt is absurd to say "point to where in the Constitution it says you have a right to an abortion." Legally speaking, there's something a lot deeper and more basic going on. As we all already know, this leaked decision makes a mockery of the law. Andrew has some further deep-diving for us on how the court, a mere 20 years ago, ruled in the opposite direction on similar legal questions. Many of the same Justices were a part of that ruling. Listen and learn!

Can we get a discussion on which lower court case will be used to overrule Roe? I just want to start early on soundbites. "In today's news, Planned Parenthood v. Monkeys was cited when the SCOTUS declared Atheism unconstitutional, milk has been spilled this day"
