"the washington says justice thomas was singled out for racist slurs after roe v. wade overturned, says the social taboo against using racial slurs has once again fought the window when it comes to supreme court justice clarence thomas. he was excoriated over his concurring opinion last week in dobbs b jackson with a wave of vitriol that included death threats and repugnant racist epithets social media, and, larry, i was going to try to pull some of these tweets and things to read, but honestly, i couldn't say most of the words in them. >> some of them are vulgar, some of them have called for his assassination. i think the only black man that's been beaten not more than clarence thomas has been the one that was beaten about here in california and at least those people that beat him up were brought to justice -- i'm talking what rodney king. clarence thomas presents the biggest threat to the left. the thing that the left fears most of course are white conservatives. the only thing worse than a white c

v. wade, your latest piece in the "washington post" reveals that emails show that president biden had plans to nominate ae anti-abortion judge to the federal bench in kentucky. what was the reasoning for the potential nomination, and where does it stand now? >> yeah, so where it stands now is a great question. it kind of seems to be in limbo. there is an opening in kentucky for a district judge, and emails released by the kentucky governor's office showed the white house the night before roe v. wade was overturned had flagged that the president was going to nominate this judge who was conservative and anti-abortion. after the decision came out, they did not announce him as a nominee. then the white house sent an email to the governor's office saying it was pre-decisional and suggesting it may not go through. the reason here, i think we're still looking for clarity on that. some members of congress have accused the white house of striking a deal with senate minority leader mitch mcconnell, who is obviously from kentucky, and to try to get some arrangement, that the president would get some of his nominees

washington. the u. s. house of representatives has passed legislation aimed at basically reinstating roe v wade. this is the law that enshrines a woman's right to an abortion, which was struck down in a controversial decision by the u. s. supreme court. the legislation pos today states that it would be illegal for any woman to be prosecuted for crossing state lines to get an abortion. and also says that in terms of federal law, any woman has the right to any abortion in any state. now this has been passed in the house, but it's unlikely to become law. the reason the senate is split 5050 and that will not be possible to get the majority needed to make this legislation law to go to the president for signature. but those in favor of this legislation hope that this will reawaken or energized the debate about abortion, which would further play out in the mid term elections late this year, that democrats making very clear that people who want the right to abortion should go out and vote for those who are pro abortion and this is something that they will .
