“The Republicans are so upset. The reality is it is their Supreme Court and Justice Alito who opened Pandora's box. When we opened up the box and looked in, we saw there were nesting eggs. There were all kinds of issues there that were going to come to the fore. Clarence Thomas put a spotlight on it. It involved gay marriage and contraception. It was going to go further than Roe v. Wade. When they said they were originalists, we didn't realize what they meant by ``originalist'' was everything origin came from them. They didn't care about precedent. Alito said Roe v. Wade was important precedent. Gorsuch and Kavanaugh said it was precedent that Roe v. Wade was settled. You can't trust the Supreme Court. They are radicals. They want to overturn privacy rights for all people in this country. Freedom is at stake. This bill needs to pass, and the only reason this bill is properly before this Congress is because of that Supreme Court that has gone off the radical right.”
