 So I want to talk about this clip that's making the rounds on the social media So Ben Shapiro on his program is going to respond to what I'm assuming he believes is liberal hysteria Over the prospect that the Supreme Court might target other really important decisions might overturn Decisions like res Walde v. Connecticut Oberkvelve Hodges Lawrence v. Texas loving the Virginia He thinks that if you think that because they overturned Roe v. Wade that they just automatically start targeting other High-profile cases. Sorry, you're stupid. You don't know the way that the Supreme Court works now What you're going to notice is that as he goes on this rant He's inadvertently going to make it very clear that he knows nothing about the Supreme Court and the way it actually Functions and he exhibits an almost childlike level of naivety here and if I were him I would be embarrassed But this is a propagandist so it's not necessarily about anything other than just disseminating what the Republican Party wants you to Disseminate so watch what he says here and then I will tell you why what he's saying is silly if it isn't already apparent to you by watching it Meanwhile, the Democrats are really trying to push our particularly the Democrats in the media So you've got ABC's Terry Moran saying that visit that never know what they might do next What are they going to do next my god the Supreme Court? They might actually go back in overall loving versus Virginia and allow states to ban inspirational marriage Oh, really that wasn't even based on the right to privacy idiots That's based on the equal protection clause wrong constitutional clause you morons And then they try to call well they might overturn a Obergefell first of all Obergefell is a bad Supreme Court decision And if we had a Supreme Court worth itself, they would overturn a Obergefell But they're not going to they explicitly say Alito says I think three separate times in that decision that I read in Nearly a totality on the air yesterday that this has no impact on other cases of different lines Which is a clear reference to a Bergfell repeatedly Okay, but Democrats know that deep down in the cockles of their tiny little Grinch like hearts on abortion They know that the abortion issue is not a winner So they're trying to expand it out say well, you never know this Supreme Court. They might go after gay rights They might go after Mm-hmm. Sure. You're right the same Supreme Court in which Neil Gorsuch idiotically ruled that the Civil Rights Act in 1964 Covers a transgender people is going to now overrule Obergefell. Mm-hmm. I'm sure Terry go for it I don't know if he realizes how naive and silly he sounds So the first thing that he says is that you know the reason why Democrats have to pretend as if this is really about gay marriage a more popular issue is because Abortion is a losing issue. It's it's unpopular Americans agree with us The theocrats they agree with us. They don't agree with you So what you're trying to do is really brilliant You're trying to make people believe that because they overturned Roe They're going to overturn Obergefell and ban gay marriages next, but nope. This is all just the distraction Ben First and foremost facts don't care about your feelings bitch. This is not a losing issue for Democrats It's a losing issue for you a data for progress poll shows that there's not a single state in the country Where a federal ban on abortion has more than 30% support and that is not the only poll That gets this result every single poll shows that Americans actually agree that Roe v. Wade should not be overturned So it's not Speculation as a means of distraction Distracting people to think that oh wow the Supreme Court might target other civil rights that we've fought for years to achieve It's just being logical because this Supreme Court is fucking insane And you would acknowledge why it's reasonable to deduce that they are going to target Obergefell and Griswold Because this court is insane and I love this line. So he says they might actually go back and over role-loving the Virginia He says this mockingly and allow states to ban interracial marriages. Oh, really? That wasn't even based on the right to privacy you idiots. That's based on the Equal Protection Clause wrong Constitutional Clause morons. I honestly find it adorable that there are still dipshits in the country that are this naive I think that the Supreme Court is some a political government institution and really they're above the fray in politics They don't have biases like the rest of us They don't impose their will on all of us and then find some legal rationale or constitutional justification for their reactionary rulings Nope, they're strictly following the Constitution. They're adhering to some sort of judicial philosophy You know, they really want to ban gay marriage But they think man, I can't because this precedent and this Constitutional reasoning in that case is just so sound. No dumb fuck they're going to do what they want to do and then they're gonna say that it's because of this reason in the Constitution to do Rubes like you into thinking that this institution has any legitimacy, but it doesn't it's a nakedly political Institution and anyone who thinks otherwise at this point is fucking stupid You are the more and if you think that they're not just political Actors Ben, I just it's shocking but the reason why he thinks that they're not political actors is because Alito said so So they're not gonna ban gay marriage because Alito says I think three separate times that this has no impact on other cases of Different lines and you believe that we're supposed to believe that because Alito says oh well This only applies to row that it's not going to extend to Obergefell It doesn't need to extend to Obergefell if they want to overturn Obergefell They will they will do what they want and then they'll find the constitutional rationale for it somewhere That's the way that they operate. That's the way that they've always operated You want to know what isn't in the Constitution? Judicial review the Supreme Court literally gave themselves the power to strike down laws that were unconstitutional They gave themselves the ability to rule on laws and tell you whether or not they are constitutional or not That's not in the Constitution, but they still have it I mean the whole fucking institution is founded on them just making things up as they go along So you honestly believe that they're going to be bound by President after they just overturned 50 year president I mean Ben you can't there's no way that he believes this and other Republicans are saying the same thing So apparently they got the call the talking points are in Ted Cruz and Josh Holly are saying the same fucking thing They always say the same thing in unison they claim that they're not gonna ban gay marriages because you know That's popular and abortion is really divisive So I mean again I'm not sure if they're a hive mind and the mother brain is communicating the new talking points to them Or if they're robots and the new talking points just got uploaded Or if they all have like some giant group email and they get their new talking points daily and they all say the same thing Look, I'm not knocking it I think that this level of message discipline is something that I wish the Democrats would attempt, but they don't they're all over the place But you know what they're saying here is disingenuous They know that the peasants would revolt if they found found out that we're losing a ton of civil rights and civil liberties That we fought decades for all at once. So they have to drip feed fucking us over. Otherwise, you know, we might react in a way That is scary for them. Who knows? But I love how the logic is it's not gonna happen because Alito said so. Here's what they said about Roe v. Wade Ben I believe the Constitution protects the right to privacy and I have no reason for agenda to pre-judge the issue Roe vs. Wade is an important precedent of the Supreme Court. It was decided in 1973 It has been challenged on a number of occasions and the Supreme Court has reaffirmed the decision when a decision is challenged And it is reaffirmed that strengthens its value Roe vs. Wade decided in 1973 It's a precedent in the United States Supreme Court It has been reaffirmed so a good judge will consider it as precedent of the United States Supreme Court worthy as treatment of precedent like any other As a judge, it is an important precedent of the Supreme Court by it. I mean Roe v. Wade in Planned Parenthood versus Casey Then reaffirmed many times Casey is precedent on precedent I do not believe that Brett Kavanaugh will overturn Roe v. Wade His precedents are overturned all the time They aren't overturned all the time He views precedent not just as a legal doctrine, but as rooted in our Constitution Neil Gorsuch for whom you voted Don't you think he's probably going to vote to overturn Roe vs. Wade if given the chance? I actually don't Roe is not a super precedent because calls for its overruling have never ceased But that doesn't mean that Roe should be overruled Now, yes, the overly dramatic music is cringe worthy and I wish that they didn't include that But the point stands that they all say one thing and do another Right, they all essentially lied And what are you gonna do about it? These are lifetime appointments You can't hold them accountable Impeaching them is nearly impossible so they can do what the fuck they want And so you're lucky that they even pretend to have some sort of judicial philosophy that they adhere to But I mean they're kind of just shedding away with the facade at this point. Are they not? You know, uh, overturning Roe v. Wade is Pretty big it shows that they don't care about even being viewed as a political branch They're political and you know that they're okay with that but people like Ben Shapiro think Oh, no, this institution is very sacred. They adhere very carefully to these judicial Philosophies that they learned in law. So let's shut the fuck up. No, they don't they make everything up They make everything up and you know, they do Ben. I know that you know They do Ben Shapiro is saying stupid things, but I don't believe that he's dumb enough to believe this They're making it up as they go along and just going back to him saying that oberg felvey Hodges should be overturned He's just casually admitting that he's a bigot. He's telling everyone I don't think that same-sex couple should have the right to marry That's that's something that it's pretty bold to say in 2022. Is it not? You're a bigot Okay, well, fuck you Nobody cares about what you have to say. I don't care that you think that oberg felve wasn't decided on sound Constitutional grounds. I don't give a fuck. What matters is we have the right, okay? And he wants gay marriages to be banned even though he has friends like Dave Rubin Dave Rubin is going to lose his marriage. I wonder what he's going to say when he hears Ben Shapiro Go on this rant. You want to fuck over your own friends Ben Shapiro? And the answer is yes because he's a psychopath like the supreme court justices Who will do anything to impose their theocratic authoritarian views on the rest of us? This is fascism and every single good person in the united states has to resist it in any way that they can Because this is absolutely unacceptable. And if you believe them when they say they're going to stop an abortion I've got a bridge to sell you
