Biden responds to leaked Supreme Court draft reversing Roe v. Wade

“Roe cannot go, Roe cannot go, Roe cannot go.”
Jimmie Johnson: PROTESTERS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ABORTION ARGUMENT HAVE CONVERGED ON THE STEPS OF THE SUPREME COURT.
THE REACTION HAS BEEN NON-STOP IN THE HOURS AFTER A DRAFT OF THE HIGH COURT’S DECISION WAS LEAKED TO POLITICO.
ACCORDING TO THAT DRAFT AND CONFIRMED BY THE CHIEF JUSTICE JOHN ROBERTS– THE COURT IS SET TO OVERTURN ROE V. WADE.
IN THE MAJORITY OPINION — JUSTICE SAMUEL ALITO WROTE THAT THE CONSTITUTION MAKES NO REFERENCE TO ABORTION, AND NO SUCH RIGHT IS IMPLICITLY PROTECTED BY THE CONSTITUTION.
WHILE THE COURT CONFIRMED ITS AUTHENTICITY- THEY REITERATED THE OPINION IS NOT FINAL.
AN INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN ORDERED INTO THE SOURCE OF THE LEAK.
SENATE REPUBLICAN LEADER MITCH MCCONNELL SAYS THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT MUST PURSUE CRIMINAL CHARGES.
Sen. Mitch McConnell | (R) Kentucky, Senate Minority Leader: “Last night’s stunning breach was an attack on the independence of the Supreme Court. By every indication, this was yet another escalation in the radical left’s ongoing campaign to bully and intimidate federal judges and substitute mob rule for the rule of law.”
Jimmie Johnson: DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP ON THE OTHER HAND- IS CONDEMNING THE COURT’S APPARENT DECISION.
Sen. Chuck Schumer | (D) New York, Senate Majority Leader: “The Republican-appointed Justices’ reported votes to overturn Roe v. Wade will go down as an abomination, one of the worst, most damaging decisions in modern history.”
Jimmie Johnson: PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN ALSO RELEASED A STATEMENT AND URGED CONGRESS TO PASS LEGISLATION TO CODIFY ROE V. WADE – WHICH WOULD TURN IT INTO LAW.
IT’S IMPORTANT TO NOTE — CODIFYING ROE ANYTIME SOON WOULD LIKELY REQUIRE A CHANGE TO THE FILIBUSTER RULES IN THE SENATE.
THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION ALREADY FAILED TO CHANGE THE RULES IN ITS PUSH FOR VOTING RIGHTS LEGISLATION.
