LISTEN: Supreme Court hears arguments on abortion pill access | MSNBC
Whether pro-choices is on the ballot or not is irrelevant, "Women of America" if you want your rights back, not to mention keeping their freaking hands off of our social security and entitlements, Vote straight ticket Democrat. 100%
Biden /Harris 2024
Social Security is already bankrupt. If you are 40 or under, you ain't getting it.
Preach!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Soooo true
Agree, but sadly the cult of Trump and the cult of Trumpism is alive and well.
The Scotus is hearing but not listening. They are taking the advice of lay people over professionals. That is a huge proplem. And the fact they are owned by billionaires. Completely corrupt.
Only Clarence (he’s shown himself to be quite the amateur gynaecologist in the past) and Witchfinder Alito and everyone knows those old duffers are lunatics!!!
What part of the questioning lead you to that conclusion? Part of SCOTUS's questions were why should they even be able to question the professionals at the FDA's interpretation of the facts when SCOTUS are not science or medical experts. Their stance seemed to be that only lower courts have taken this approach and SCOTUS has no history of doing it, so why should this change now.
I'm hearing a lot about the rights of the emergency room doctors, not so much about the rights of women.
To me it seems outrageous that a doctor can refuse treatment because of their moral or religious beliefs. I thought doctors are obligated to treat all patients without bias? I guess not.
We must vote blue !!
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
@@normagrimstad8869 Emergency rooms doctors are not allowed to refuse to stabilize a patient under EMTALA, however there are conscience objectors who refuse to follow the law based on their personally held belief systems. This is protected under law as well so its kind of a catch 22 as doctors are required to treat all patients without bias and doctors are entitled to refuse treatment based on bias.
It should be a women's choice. A pill should be allowed IN ANY STATE IN THE U.S. ABORTION should never have been overturned.
It wasn't, grow up.
Where have you been, Roe was overturned@@ivotenotocensorship5247
@@ivotenotocensorship5247. Sure it given States the rights, but effectively and practically in many ways it has been overturned. It is not blanket anymore.
Also practically this pill can be sourced couriered from other states.
@@ivotenotocensorship5247 sweety I am grown have seen a lot in my days and don't tread on my life just for your beliefs. We are a free country to let you have a voice and live. So do I. Have a nice day.
@bethbish6287 anyone parroting msnbc and Rachel maddow ARE NOT GROWN
My daughter is prescribed this medication to reduce uterus fibroid cysts. It has been effective. Without it she will probably require a full surgical hysterectomy.
I mean if she doesnt stop taking it she cant get pregant so whats the point of the uterus if her treatment already medically keeps her sterile
Vote 💙🇺🇸💙 We need to take our women’s rights back & protect our rights moving forward, and we need support from all the men who have a woman they love in their life.
It doesn’t matter what your position on abortion case. No judicial precedent exists for a court to invalidate or restrict and FdA approved drug. It’s that simple
Indeed.
Even if it is the murder of a child? OMG
@@RonBrumbaughhe’s not arguing for or against “murder”. He’s simply saying that this has never happened, the SCOTUS has never done this and it is out of their power to do so. It will change the way our country runs if they decide to regulate this.
Please give women back their choices!!
Give the CHILD a choice. Turn off the blinders of deception. Save the children that are disposed of as medical waste. God have Mercy and Judgement on our nation and the Abortion Murderers.
@@RonBrumbaughas long as over 80% of single partners are mothers & countless men don’t even take financial responsibility for kids… your opinion is irrelevant
@@arlenemacisaac3452You’re disgusting. He is saying that you are murdering a baby, a human being in the young stages of development. And you say “Your opinion is irrelevant”, the United States Infanticide Crisis will never be irrelevant, nor forgotten! You do not have the right to murder another human being, and I pray god has mercy on you upon the day of judgement for your selfish, ignorant, support of the murder of children.!
@@RonBrumbaughyou’re free to believe that. You’re not free to impose your personal beliefs on the rest of the country.
@@RonBrumbaughUnviable parasites are not children. There’s no deception, parasites cannot seize women bodies.
Why does the SCOTUS keep asking questions that are outside the bounds of this case? That is such BS.
Because of Christianity and their invisible friend
Unfortunately, it felt to me like it was to give other lawyers ideas of how to make a stronger case against abortion of any kind.
This woman really knows her stuff, well done! Supreme Court: Do the right thing for a change. It's the FDA's gig, not yours. Stay in your lane.
She is always like this. She is always incredibly well prepared. We are lucky to have her.
If a women wants to terminate her pregnancy it's her body her choice. She's the one to carry it. Her body her choice.
It is not your choice, it’s not about you , it’s about the baby. Abortion is wrong it should never be available.
Should the SCOTUS roll back FDA approval of Viagra and Cialis? What other medications should be added to the list of SCOTUS- approved medications and procedures? Should SCOTUS justices also earn medical degrees? Theology degrees? How can this precedent be misused/ abused in the future?
SCOTUS doesn't need medical degrees. They don't need to Google anything. All they need are their personal opinions, which is how they flavor the law. And, in the case of Justice Thomas - depends on how many perks there are with a conservative agenda. They are the Supreme law of the land, gotta deal with that. The buck stops with them. They ONLY way to prevent misuse/abuse is to VOTE for the legislator that reflects your own values, who nominates the judges to the Supreme Court. I'm gonna say - the Supreme Court's reputation has become slightly less sleazy than TMZ's. Rather than reverence, we in the public are like "Ok, sure - there's a pro-Trump majority, so it's Trump all the way no matter what", no respect for anything that the Court is meant to be.
Its wild to me that so many folks feel they should have some decision making power over MY body.
I am with you.
OMG It is not Your Body. It is the body of a child who should have a choice. STOP repeating what the Memes are feeding YOU>
@@RonBrumbaugh An embryo is NOT a child. This is a dishonest construct. An acorn is not an oak. The embryo does not have rights over that of the woman carrying the embryo.
ITS NOT ABOUT YOU OR YOUR BODY, it’s about the baby
Amen
So, the plaintiffs are whining about the fact that other physicians have prescribed mifepristone to a patient who they "might" have to see. JFC, get over yourself.
Wow! The lawyer arguing for the defendant and FDA is brilliant! What an outstanding legal mind!
Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar - Fantastic❗️
Most embarrassing SCOTUS ever. What miserable failures.
Abortion pill access will not be denied. The SCOTUS should never have taken this case. ✌✌☮☮
You can thank that insane judge in Amarillo…he’s brought all the nuance of Torquemada to jurisprudence…
I'm not sure you have a conscious if your willingness to heal someone is contingent on what caused their injury rather than the fact they are injured. Can you imagine the outcry if doctors started to refuse to help gunshot victims because of a personal objection to guns?
Or if the Doctor doesn't like alcoholics?
Where do people come up with this stuff? This is killing an innocent child voluntarily Sick concept that you have.
@@RonBrumbaugh Where do you get the extremely unscientific and irrational notion that an embryo is a child. It's a mass of cells with no conscious.
When will the Supreme Court be discussing whether women should vote in this country or not? Is that coming up next?
Yes it is
The Republican party is self-destructing.
Personally I can’t wait for the miscegenation case to get to the Supreme Court…
Absolute stupidity. We are talking about the death of a child here. Get a grip of reality. I know it is hard. Much easier to listen to uneducated who keep repeating the same things over and over again. True deception.
Very sick and uneducated response. This the killing, murdering and disposal of a child.
Every prescribed pill on the market has side effects..some are more severe side effects then others maybe they should all be taken off the market..
Killing a baby ? OMG
SCOTUS allowed someone 10 times smarter than them combined, of course that hurts their feelings so they will find some justification to save their ego.
If a doctor's "conscience " tells them they can't treat a woman for any reason, they are violating their oath
You know the oath is only ceremonial right? But even still these doctors would try and argue that the action they are refusing to take would be doing harm or some nonsense that rationalizes their risking the life of a patient.
This republicans SC are ridiculous
Time to ignore the court
Wish we could. Roberts has let them get willy nilly and is obviously complicit at this point. Citizens United was a test case, and he got away with it. He hit the kitty, and the parents did nothing. Bad metaphor, but true. No?
Ignore the highest court in the US? The final say? SCOTUS has become really really political, but it always has been a flex in the war between GOP & Dems. I believe that the greatest jurists look at the law, not the politics - but unfortunately, the outcome is that WE vote for the President, WE vote for Congress, and the President puts forth a Supreme Court nominee that reflects their agenda as a mark for posterity - and the nominee is approved by Congress or not, mostly based on politics. It has ALWAYS been this way since the beginning of the US. Don't ignore the court. You shout loudly enough, with others who feel the same way - it will create a revolution.
Wait until the court rules women aren’t allowed to vote , that will be next
The GQP is already talking about stopping women from voting.
They can't touch that. We passed a constitutional amendment back in 1920 granting women voting rights. They probably would do it if we didn't pass that amendment.
@@ejkk9513 don’t bet on that a dicktator can do anything
WHY are people doctors when they have “issues” that would stop them from doing their job? Don’t become a doctor if you can’t do the job. Don’t go into obstretics if you can’t handle the gray areas of that work.
I love Justice Jackson. Her questions seem more clear. It’s great to hear so many female voices!
Any doctor not willing to help a woman after the fact, maybe should remember their oath to the patient in front of them. Disgusting. I can't listen anymore. These doctors are truly vial. As if it matters if it is a spontaneous abortion or not. If the woman or girl needs help, HELP THEM. Yeesh!
Exactly. They took an oath to care for patients. It shouldn't matter how they got there.
Biden needs to expand the Court.
Agreed
Justice Thomas is obviously on a fishing expedition, trying to establish a basis for standing for some other party to establish standing for another suit. If he were an honest justice he would stick to the case in hand.
Thomas is for sale to the highest bidder.
Omg its a commercial every 5 minutes on this tube lol unreal
Try ffiirreeffooxx
AdBlock, I NEVER see ads on YT.
I hope that pro-life people will also do everything they can to help women and families who had to give birth to their child (healthy or sick). Therefore, there should be a law that obliges pro-life people to help.
They are not "pro life." They are anti choice. Once a baby is born they stop caring.
OMG. We have hundreds and hurndreds of Pregnancy Centers all over America. Helping mothers from birth and throughout childhood. You need to stop listening to the deceptive lies that the memes keep telling you. I and thousands have helped women with new borns every single day. OMG Planned Parenthood is the one that sends the women home crying when they just can barely walk with a few government agencies phone numbers. How sick is that. Amazing what you Memees will believe. It is actually sick that you are that gullible to believe something like that that is so sick. Take all of the money that PP gets from the government and actually help mothers instead of throwing a baby away as medical waste or flush it down the toilet as what this pill is for. A very sick sick value on life And one of the biggest lies that women keep repeating that is absolute false and NOT true. Do you want me to send you a list of Pregnancy Centers that provide child are and financial support to mothers? Or do you just want to keep propagating that total lie that the memes and baby killers are using to deceive you ? I assume you won't take a list? Because it would confound your deception and continue on to the murdering of innocent children. Let me know. I am waiting. WHO TOLD YOU THIS ???
I think the forced birth people should be forced to adopt children, starting with the most problematic ones first. Since they believe it's OK to force people to have children, they should in turn be forced to have them, even ones they don't want, can't afford, can't care for.

Solicitor General, Elizabeth Prelogar, is amazing in her delivery, clarity, and knowledge.
Any doctor who cannot provide healthcare to their patients regardless should NOT BE A DOCTOR.
Health care is NOT killing a child. Get a grip of somewhat of reality
I have a conscience objection to drunk drivers. Let’s get rid of all alcohol for everyone.
That would reduce deaths caused by drunk driving.
Great idea! Let’s do it!
The dishonorable court is corrupt.
Judge Alito asked if the FDA is infallible. That was such an arrogant question and kind of nonsensical one. He knows everything on Earth is run by humans and so of course it not infallible and neither is he. I want to know if he thinks the Supreme Court is infallible?
Too bad the respondent didn't answer "no, the FDA is no more infallible than the courts".
If I could get paid back for every doctor that has offended me as a woman I would be pretty well off. But I can just go to a different dr. So why would I not be able to receive care that I need from a different dr because of a few not liking what I need?
Why am I reminded of the tv ordeal before ratings were established? They were trying to do the same thing as book bans but for tv.
FREEDOM?! 😅💙💙💙💙
This case is nuts and it’s frickin’ bizarre that it made it to the Supreme Court…
Sotomoyar was giving her help and it flew right over her head
So a doctor’s conscience is more important than a woman’s health? Sorry, but it’s against my conscience that a doctor wouldn’t treat me, especially if they are a specialist. Of course I probably wouldn’t want to be treated by someone who rejected me for some reason, but if I’m unconscious or near death I don’t have a choice.
The Doctor who doesn't want to treat patients should change their job.
Sounds like the Dr's need to retire, if they are fighting to not save a women's life
We must VOTE BLUE!! They want to put women back in time as second class citizens… first abortion… now contraception….
what up with this knit picking what happen 2 common scene in ever day living
Who is the victim here…
Some arrogant Doctor trying to force their horrible cruel religion onto women.
in other words, ZERO Women have gone to the hospital after taking the M pill and had a Right Wing Christian anti abortion Dr. in the entire time, 20 years worth of Women's healthcare. Thank GOD.
Men getting vasectomies until marriage and also Men could stop r8ping women. That would solve a LOT. Also, Clarence rarely asks questions and he is so talkative lately
So wait you can’t order any Rxs? That’s BS. I get meds delivered in the mail, or by carrier weekly. This is wholly untrue
ok so as I understand this : there is a rule that doctors cant be forced to do abortion if they don't feel its right. the claim is that the Doctors that don't want to be a part of abortion procedures may be harmed by treating patients that go to the hospital because of complications from medicine abortions. This has never happened though, and is also not likley to happen because there are already protections in place to make sure that they wouldn't have to, and if they did, they would have recourse. this seems like a waste of time. i mean, what does this have to do with the drug being available to everyone else? am I missing something?
You're not missing anything. This case should not have made it to the Supreme Court, but our courts are corrupt so here we are. Separation of church and state is not so separate any more.
@@1paradox yea maybe we should start a case to remove Tax Exemption from churches, since they want to be political organizations now.
@@jacobuswoolfeart I support that, but it's not just religious organizations overstepping. Lately religion seems to be driving laws and policies in schools, medicine, government in general, etc.
So the plaintiff's argument is that doctors can refuse to do their jobs because they dislike the decisions patients made prior to getting to the ER. That is insane.
Honorable Jackson's voice is calming in it's humanity and intelligence, as opposed to Alito's arrogant misleading questions.
Congress should repeal the Comstock act, SCOTUS should not just blindly ignore existing law, it is too much power for a body of government.
I think the major part of this as I used to be in law is that the plaintiffs don’t have any losses associated with their complaint . They are already protected per the defense attorney if they don’t want to assist a women that has problem w the drug
The microphone quality at SCOTUS is really top tier, and rightfully so cause we should be able to hear clearly how alito and Thomas basically wouldn’t mind if millions of women were murdered by pregnancy and the unwillingness of doctors to care for them over an unborn clump
Of cells they somehow think they care for more than their creators
A company is complaining that they will sell more of the product. Someone explain to me that
making a profit is a bad thing.?
No, the company is complaining that they will be prevented from marketing their product that's been approved by the FDA.
Sounds like the government is going to win this one.
My personal idea is, if women have No say so about their on bodies or abortion, i think this should happen.. ALL women that choose to have an abortion should be able to do whatever they choose. IF, we are to be controlled by Men, then as Women we should carry the baby for 9 months and before we give birth have an attorney draw up legal documents and sign our rights away to The Fathers.. I know there are many, many Fathers that would Love to raise the child until they are at least 21 years of age.. Especially if the Father of the baby is a Happily Married Man that has now Just Got Caught !!!!!!
No idea of how you make this stuff up. It is the killing of a child. Millions of families are waiting to adopt. It costs approximately 50K for an adoption. $500 to dispose of a child and flush them down the toilet with this pill. The sickness of the value of life. Disgusting. Don't worry they soon will come for you.
Whelp those are going away
This is so wrong. This makes it way to easy to abort. How did we get to this point? We now have given women the full power to terminate life. It is now a woman’s full discretion on who lives and who dies.

Courts are calling the allowing of women to poison themselves only to the degree in which it could end their healthy so far pregnancy women's rights? Instead of the courts passing laws against the use of coersive contro helping to prevent situations which cause women to feel that desperate while wanting to avoid entrapement into coparenting with someone who was being coersive at the time while they were demanding pay back after paying for both the dinner out bills during an arranged marriage or whatever? Absurd behavior coming from well educated people in authority.
You're absurd
Your premise is invalid. The women aren't poisoning themselves. And that's not the question before the court.
I think the commentator meant to say “hypocritic medicine”. We are talking about killing unborn babies here.
We are not. We are taking about trusting women
During the period of time we are talking about, the fetus is not viable. The fetus cannot live outside the womb.
They aren't babies, they're embryos. They aren't conscious entities.
Give the CHILD a choice. Turn off the blinders of deception. Save the children that are disposed of as medical waste. God have Mercy and Judgement on our nation and the Abortion Murderers.
Hi Ron, this "child" in question is unable to make decisions. Often times an abortion is done if a fetus is not developing, or the mother cannot physically or mentally carry out a pregnancy. Also you do not have a uterus so this does not concern you at all. If it makes you uncomfortable, do not do it. If you are so passionate about this topic, why not advocate for children in foster care or affordable living conditions and healthcare so women do not have to be put in this situation? Just food for thought.
Ron votes for healthcare and childcare, I'm sure.
