KEVIN CORKE. WE ARE STILL AWAITING THE REAL
WE ARE STILL AWAITING THE REAL
OPINION FROM COURT.
WE HAVE PRE-MAXWELL WITH US AND
OUR FORMER CHIEF NOMINATIONS
COUNSEL ARTICLE THREE PRESIDENT
MIKE DAVIS.
WELCOME TO BOTH OF YOU.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING US.
>> INC. HERE.
Shannon: WHEN IT COMES TO
CHRIS MURPHY, HERE’S WHAT HE
SAID.
>> I DON’T LIKE THE WAY THAT
THIS DECISION CAME OUT, BUT THE
OUTRAGE SHOULD BE ABOUT WHAT IS
GOING TO HAPPEN TO WOMEN AND
FAMILIES IN THIS COUNTRY AND THE
FACT THAT WOMEN AND DOCTORS ARE
GOING TO BE SENT TO JAIL
IMMEDIATELY WHEN THIS OPINION
BECOMES A REALITY.
Shannon: WE DO NOT KNOW IF
THIS IS A FINAL OPINION.
IF IT DOES TRACK WHAT THE
JUSTICE WROTE, ARE OUR WOMEN AND
DOCTORS IMMEDIATELY GOING TO
JAIL?
>> THAT IS NONSENSE.
WHAT IT MEANS IS THAT WE ARE
GOING TO RETURN TO WHAT THE
COUNTRY DID FOR ABORTION
REGULATIONS GOING BACK TO THE
STATES, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
IS GOING TO GET OUT OF THE
ABORTION REGULATION BUSINESS.
>> THERE WERE CALLS TO THE DOJ
TO GET INVOLVED TO THE
PROTESTERS WHO APPEAR TO BE
VIOLATING FEDERAL LAW, HERE’S
WHAT HE SET SAID ON THE FLOOR TO
OF THE SENATE. Shannon: THE JUSTICE
Shannon: THE JUSTICE
DEPARTMENT WAS QUICK TO TREAT
THEM LIKE POTENTIAL DOMESTIC
TERRORISTS, BUT SERIOUSLY.
I HAVE NOT HEARD ANY
ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT HOW THE DOJ
MAY HANDLE THESE INTIMIDATION
SITUATIONS AIMED AT FEDERAL
JUSTICES.
Shannon: DO YOU THINK THAT
THEY SHOULD GET INVOLVED IN THE
FEDERAL PROTESTING?
>> YOU KNOW, ABSOLUTELY.
THE PRESIDENT AND THE WHITE
HOUSE HAVE ALSO SAID THAT PEOPLE
HAVE A FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO
PROTEST.
BUT, HOWEVER, WHEN IT COMES TO
VIOLENT THREATS OR HARASSMENT
AND INTIMIDATION’S, THOSE ARE
THINGS THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN, THOSE ARE THINGS THAT SHOULD GO
THOSE ARE THINGS THAT SHOULD GO
DOWN THE DRAIN, AND THEY HAVE
MADE SURE THAT WE CAN LIVE IN
THE COUNTRY THAT WE HAD BEEN
ABLE TO LIVE IN.
SO DO I BELIEVE THAT THEY SHOULD
HAVE PROTECTIONS?
WELL, ABSOLUTELY.
PEOPLE ARE UPSET, THERE’S A LOT
OF TRACTION GOING ON, SO I
BELIEVE THAT THEY SHOULD BE AT
THIS POINT BECAUSE AT THIS POINT
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT AND IT’S SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO LOOK
SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO LOOK AT
AT.
>> YOU KNOW, I DON’T SEE IT THAT
WAY.
I THINK THE DEMOCRATS ARE BEING
TOO EXTREME IN THIS ABORTION
ISSUE WHERE THEY ARE CALLING FOR
ABORTIONS UP UNTIL THE MOMENT,
THAT IS NOT GOING TO FLY WITH
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
AND YOU NEED 60 VOTES IN THE
SENATE TO PASS LEGISLATION AND
THERE IS NO EDUCATION THAT
SENATOR JOE MANCHIN OR KRISTIN
CINEMA OR ANY OF THESE OTHER
MORE MODERATE DEMOCRATIC
SENATORS ARE WILLING TO NUKE
THIS LEGISLATIVE FILIBUSTER TO
CONTINUE THIS.
>> SO WHY SHOULD THEY DO IT AND
PUT EVERYBODY ON THE RECORD, IF
IT DOES INCLUDE THAT EXTENSIVE,
SOMETHING THAT IS BEYOND ALL
PULLING HERE, SOMETHING THAT
WOULD BE UP TO NINE MONTHS OF
BIRTH, WHEN MOST AMERICANS SAY
THAT THIS IS COMPLETELY OUT OF
STEP WITH HOW THEY FEEL?
>> WELL, ONE REASON IS BECAUSE
WE ARE IN A MIDTERM ELECTION.
SO A LOT OF POLITICIANS, A LOT
OF ELECTED OFFICIALS AND
CANDIDATES, THEY ARE REALLY
TRYING TO SAVE THEIR BUTTS WITH
THE ELECTION COMING UP.
ALSO THE RIGHTS OF THOSE IN THE
STATE, THE STATE SHOULD BE ABLE
TO MAKE DECISIONS AND THE NEXT
STEP THAT WE WILL BE TAKING.
BUT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO BE ABLE TO
MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO
RECEIVE AN ABORTION IF THEY ARE
NOT ABLE TO RECEIVE ONE.
SO I THINK AT THIS POINT THE
DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO DO
WHATEVER THEY CAN TO MAKE SURE
THAT THEY APPEASE THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE.
>> OTHER THAN THE POLITICAL PART
THERE, I THINK THAT YOU TO SOUND
LIKE YOU VERY MUCH ON THE SAME
PAGE, AND SENDING THIS BACK TO
THE STATE.
DO YOU THINK THAT THERE IS
COMMON GROUND THERE?
>> YES, I WOULD SAY SO.
I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT MERRICK
GARLAND ALSO NEEDS TO STEP UP
RIGHT NOW, IT’S A DIRT ELECTION
THAT THEY’VE HAD TO STEP UP TO
PROTECT JUSTICES IN EACH DAY
BECAUSE THE FBI DIRECTOR IN THE
DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL, THE
U.S. ATTORNEYS AND OTHERS IN THE
EASTERN DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA,
THEY ARE NOT DOING THEIR JOBS,
PROTECTING THESE JUSTICES FROM
OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE.
>> I THINK THAT THERE MAY BE A
GROWING CALL FOR THE DOJ TO GET
