this is the day before dobbs that takes away abortion rights.ily autonomy and guns central to that. he spends five paragraphs explaining black men need their guns to protect their the next day in dobbs he issues a concurrence. there is no talking about women's bodily autonomy. or black women's bodily autonomy. he pivots inside these decisions putting in gifs or certain narratives that help his. al: i knew it would not take us long to move into reproductive as we planned and as is appropriate. let'se transition by talking about the overlay of administrative authority and some of the reproductive health issues in front of us. who wants to begin that evolution? supreme court keeps medication abortion on the market. sort of. this was a case that gave industry some real heartburn. the case involved, this goes to erin's point about unsettling long-standingions the f.d.a. approved mifepristone, one of the two drugsnhse in medication abortion in 2000. have a group of litigants who came forward and contested that approval, and contested other regulatory

the dobbs decision, the court said we are going to leave these matters to states. by removing mifepristone from the market it would then be not just states that banned abortion, but it would mean it was no longer available including in the states where abortion would be lawful. the litigants in that case said the f.d.a. had rushed to the marketplace with approving mifepristone even in the year it was approved the f.d.a. spent three times the length of time before giving it the rubber stamp than other drugs released that year. they said this is a drug that is unsafe and harms people and studies shown that mifepristone is safer than tylenol and aspirin, right? they were able to get what they wanted from judge kaczmarek, he said, yes, this should be entirely removed from the marketplace. and then made its way to the circuit and then to the supreme court. the point you raised about corporations intervening, this case is a bit unique because we saw corporations intervening saying, look, this is dangerous. what could happen if someone doesn't like childhood vaccines and

he basically said what had happened with dobbs was a great thing. there's nothing great about treating women as a second-class citizen. eight years ago trump said quote there has to be some form of punishment for abortion." and now he said states get to decide. as my colleagues have said republicans of said note to protecting access to ivf they said no to contraception they have said no to protecting abortion rights that is right magnet republicans are stepping on your constitutional right. that is why we have to ask our colleagues in the senate whether they agree with that whether they agree or they are going to stand up and help the women get access to healthcare they deserve. >> great job. tomorrow maria it will issue a report on this issue which i think is very important to help people give it a look. >> note calling on women first talk about abortion. >> are you confident president biden has what it takes to win in november and serve the next four years question as i've said before i am with joe.

and net was underway before dobbs -- that was underway before dobbs.e have seen cases where parental involvement in minor decision-making around contraception is now up for debate. where contraception was a health service that by and large many adolescents were able to access without their parent's involvement for a long time, so it's definitely predated what we have seen in the dobbs decision. >> i'm glad you brought up that case actually because i think it fits into this notion of privacy, too, if i am correct, in that case, the reasoning was, you have a right to privacy to control your children's access to birth control, so taking the right to privacy, to give you a right to contraception and repetitive choices, and flipping it, saying, actually, it is the right of someone else to control that access. >> the irony there, though, if you pair that idea that all of a sudden the right to privacy is of some sort of parental right to privacy or a familial right to privacy, i fully expect a very different argument to be made in the supreme court around the

i think this is such a positive lesson we have learned from dobb. i want to talk about the wife for the bill and then i will talk about what the law does. in idaho, we are bordered by several states, in particular oregon and washington. they have some of the most permissive pro-abortion laws in the country. not only is abortion available on demand, but there are no parental consent laws. imagine an unrelated adult man brings an underage girl to an abortion clinic in one of those states and whether or not that young woman voices -- there would be no requirement that a parent would consent. you could understand what a horrible situation brings about for vulnerable minors. it can be a vulnerability exposed in many different ways that is absolutely related to human trafficking. most human trafficking of women is for sexual purposes and a consequence can be sexual activity. the pregnancy is evidence of a crime, so it is also bad for business for these criminals who are trafficking young girls in the sex trade, so there is every incentive to get rid of a

even before the dobbs decision, we are centering that as what is after dobbs, but we are witnessing the end of roe, as michelle documents in her book, from the hyde amendment which in 1977 banned the use of federal funds for abortion through medicaid and other insurance, and the 1980 decision that upheld the amendment, the law which took effect on september 1, 2020 one and prohibited abortion around the sixth week of presidency and deputized citizens to enforce that law. the supreme oort allowed it to take effect as you all know. at the end of may just a few weeks ago the texas supreme court ruled that clarity on the states medical exceptions for abortion was not needed, despite the fact that 20 women and the state testified about the horrors they experienced personally due to the fear and legal concerns of providers who denied them medically necessary abortion care until they were near death. those are not the only people who need abortions. this is about everyone who needs abortion but we are talking about the specific cases because those are the ones being put forward. it is undeniab

one quick note, as we transition, thinking about bruin and dobbs, bruin was released the day before dobbs. justice thomas wrote the opinion and bruin -- in bruin. it returned a more than centuries-old new york gun control law. he said it was important to include april love. it is very rare there's a prologue in any law decision. he said it is needed so they can spend five paragraphs talking about how important male bodily autonomy is an protecting male bodily autonomy was connected to men being able to have guns -- the next day was the dobbs decision. not one reference to women's bodily autonomy whatsoever. no reference by justice thomas in his concurrence to black women's bodily autonomy even though five paragraphs were spent the day before talking about black men and their guns. now to trump community -- imm unity. why don't we take that on? today many of you had to rush and right given the opinion. what does the opinion actually say? mark. >> the opinions as presidents -- opinions as presidents are immune for official acts that they take an office that are within their exclusive sphere

dobbs centered on abortion exceptions. women like kate cox, pictured at the bottom in amanda's roski here are arguing that state abortion bans with exceptions, either have to be interpreted broadly or that those exceptions fact violate state constitutions. so this litigation is continuing in states like texas, kentucky, tennessee, elsewhere. again, this is state constitutional litigation. it's not a direct challenge to dobbs, but it's designed to deal dogs a death of a thousand cuts. right. to say if this is the world dobbs is ushered, it's unworkable. we've seen two counts in two us supreme court cases on abortion in one term. after dobbs told us that the federal courts were out of this game, one of which involves fda's authority to approve mifepristone on a drug used in more than half of us abortions. the case also involves a claim that the fda never had the authority to make abortion pills available via. telehealth because anthony comstock's law never repealed and is argued make it a federal crime to make abortion relat

the pro- abortion movement has been hemmed in by dobbs. there's less flexibility than they have before they have to make a decision about where they want to take their political fight next. in idaho we have seen that's really taken a form of medical emergencies. it's tied to the litigation that hasn't given them something more to talk about in this respect it. unfortunately what it hasn't meant in idaho is creating a lot ofus confusion over what idaho's lot means. i think by virtue of our idaho supreme court decision is very clear doctors in idaho can operate under the best medical adjustment and medical emergencies the message doctors are getting from the media and idaho, from the national media and even some of the hospital lot apartments and doctors organizations within idaho or doctors are confused for they cannot act in their transferring patients out of state. transfer them to organ and washington they are concerned for their own liability if they were to act in emergency circumstances. even if there's not an emergency yet you can se

>> the needle has moved and dobbs is the huge part of that. you know, it's really at this point fish or cut bait. and i think it's been energizing for vice president harris. i think we could we see the difference in her after the dobbs decision. it's like she found her voice. she walked into that space and women really found that she resonated with them, that she was speaking the language we wanted to hear and so i think that senator warren is absolutely right she also spoke about something that's true about vice president harris that she can speak forcefully to an issue like women's abortion rights, but she often figures out how to take that much, like going to an abortion clinic she she feels very comfortable with the retail part of campaigning. and i think that's a touch we're going to have to see over the next four weeks as well, if that's one of her strongest issues, it's one of the toughest for donald trump in the term taking credit for the supreme court. conservative majority, but also dealing with the ramifications and he, there's so m

janelle is the highest disapproval rate since dobbs. so they were unhappy with dobbs. here we are two years later. they are unhappy with the supreme court. look, you put it all together, and what you find is the court is not meeting public expectations. the presidency is not the congress is not. this doesn't say much. or maybe it does say a lot, in a sense, for the way the public is feeling about our leaders, our institutions. and that's got a lot of people worried. okay, larry gerston, thank you so much for your time today, jessica. okay. thank you. president biden's son, hunter biden, is suing fox news over a docu series that focuses on his foreign business dealings. fox aired the mock trial series on its streaming service back in 2022, but later took it down under the threat of lawsuit by hunter biden's attorneys. the suit alleges that fox published nude photos and videos of biden, in violation of new york state's revenge law. that law makes it illegal to publish intimate images of a person without their consent. fox news says the suit is entirely politically motiva

this is bigger than dobbs.is going to make people say, the choice is so evident and this galvanize vote for joe biden in november. >> trump has to be careful. he sent out a fundraising email with the subject line total immunity. he is mckechnie and katie said. >> this is a substantive win for donald trump because of the general impulses about politicians and whether they should be immune and whether that word sounds good to people, i do think it is a political -- there is political backlash possible. >> i am delivering your worst nightmare and four people have to make a point and not enough time. i will group these two and leave you more time. >> [ laughter ] >> this could be bigger than dobbs and being this bizarre win for democrats that will galvanize voters to say, i am not up to a dictator and down with the king. >> i want to lightly december and i do think dobbs will be bigger than this this people care about what impacts them directly. unless the campaign makes this about how it impacts you sitting in you
