in wisconsin where the senate candidate, eric hovde dee, who is taking on tammy baldwin, is trying to ors really changing his point of view just on friday, said something really interesting that he thinks that women should have the right to make a choice and that they should be able to do it early before a baby can be born healthy okay. well, that's pretty much the law everywhere, right? 20 weeks, 24 weeks. >> generally, this sort of accepted viability. but that is such a change from where he was before. it's it's pretty stunning, but maybe it's not going to help democrats so much. in pennsylvania, the commonwealth, we've seen, we've seen republic, other republicans come out. surprisingly against what the arizona supreme court did today, including kari lake, who is a rather extreme maga election denying republican, but she put out a statement saying aye, opposed today's ruling. and i'm calling on democratic governor katie hobbs and the state legislature to come come up with an immediate common sense solution that arizonans can support. i have no idea what her personal view on this, bu
