Cecile Richards joins Lawrence O’Donnell to discuss the decision by Chief Justice Roberts to join the liberal justices in striking down a Louisiana law restricting access to abortions, but says the votes from Trump appointees Gorsuch and Kavanaugh show that women’s rights are hanging “by a very thin thread on this court and it’s going to be an important issue in the November elections.” Aired on 6/29/2020.

Supreme Court Strikes Down LA Anti-Abortion Law In Surprise 5-4 Ruling | The Last Word | MSNBC
5-4 … if Trump gets another SCOTUS pick …
#AnyoneButTrump2020
Kavanagh lied to Congress he needs to be removed. As does Susan Collins let her take her concerns into retirement with her
#MEDICAREFORALLAMERICANCITIZENS
IT WILL SAVE MOTHERS
IT WILL SAVE BABIES
It will decrease need and desire for abortions.
@Maxmartin Trump is going to die in prison, just like his close friend Jeffrey Epstein.
@Tessmage Tessera You worry about that. I’ll worry about defending Roe V Wade without your amphibian/mammal “science” bull💩.
@Maxmartin actually I am trying to get anti abortionists to think outside their very small box. If all pregnant women and all children were insured some women/families would feel less pressure to have abortions for financial reasons.
This aspect of abortions and pre and post natal is pretty much ignored by everyone.
@Tessmage Tessera your comment does not make sense here. I am trying to reach anti abortionists and get them to think outside the box they currently confine themselves to. I am advocating for M4A, and in this case pointing out how it would help pregnant women and infants, something I hope we all can agree on.
@Laura Lafauve There is no grey area in the pro-life movement. They will demand that 100% of any funds allocated to “reproduction rights” within any legislation is removed. I have suggested that people can opt for “reproductive rights insurance.” It is an optional, small premium paid into a seperate, non taxpayer funded pool of funds. The pro-life crowd will have to resort to trying to shut down the clinics again. The past 4 attempts to do that have ALL failed in State/Fed courts including 2 SCOTUS rulings. They will have to revert back to marching with signs. That’s a 20 year step backwards.
Here’s a fact. The evangelical Christians wanted nothing to do with the abortion issue until Reagan convinced Ralph Reed to create the Christian Coalition Republican block of voters in the 1980’s. They needed a single rallying cry so Pastors were all told to rail against abortion. Up until that point there was NO opposition from evangelicals to the Roe V Wade decision. The only opposition was from the Catholic Church heirarchy. Most Catholic voters were indifferent. The whole movement was a sham and is a sham.
Right wants to protect the life of unborn and then stay in silence of killing the born down to our own 130000 dead. We should laugh them off any stage
REMOVE THE TURD ON NOV3rd.
Everyone: Wear a mask please!
t’rump supporters: You can’t tell me what to do with my own body.
Everyone: So, you’re pro-choice.
t’rump supporters: **stares back blankly** You can’t tell me….
Everyone: Sigh 🤦
funny but there’s a big truth there.
if they can force you to have children, then they can force you to donate organs.
trump needs a new…skin? tough luck, Ro, you’re the chosen donor.
We can certainly tell you that you are not allowed to murder true living breathing human beings. Wear a mask. If you want to assert your rights to control your body, go out in public stark naked below you mask. It would be the more appropriate choice.
@ruth depew ” If you want to assert your rights to control your body, go out in public stark naked below you mask. ”
note this advice only applies to hot chicks and studs.
@d bc Good. I support mandatory organ donation.
Republicans can not be pro life when they want to sacrifice grandma and grandpa for the economy,
That’s Trump’s Death Panels.
So True, and they don’t even really deny it
Especially what they are doing to the ACA in the middle of a pandemic
They’re only pro life before it’s born, once it is born and grown up, they couldn’t give a flying fcuk …. what they really want is controlling women’s bodies so that women are kept subservient and obedient to men
Best news of the last four years.
Best wishes to the women of Louisiana, for your continued ability to determine your own health and reproductive needs.
If you don’t vote out every Republican candidate, your basic human rights will be trampled upon by the beer drinking abuser appointed by Trump.
Please remember Kavanaugh is anti-investigation and a known perjurer
Anyone who is “surprised” by ANYTHING right now needs to wake the — up.
Susan Collins is on her last leg trying to repair what she did to women with the Kavanaugh vote, and now voting “no” to remove Trump. Maine, VOTE HER OUT!

I think Roberts is saving up for his future vote in ruling Trump the winner in November after cheating his way into a second term. I am tipping now that US deaths will be around 250,000 by November I wonder how the yellow ones Whitehouse are going to spin that. They will be working on their gaslighting strategy now.
The term of the justices should be limited to two terms to reflect the will of the people.
Hey tRump, sick of losing yet?
Kavanaugh boofed his opportunity to be a human being
Just the fact that the so called party of freedom wants to control what everybody can and cannot do.
Never forget: during his tearful hearing, Kavanaugh declared his will to take revenge on the Democrats.
Bret Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas care nothing for the Constitution or the American people. They are both cruising for impeachment.
Is it me, or does Brett Kavanaugh look REALLY creepy when he’s smiling in this video of the Supreme Court Justices?
