You know, before you take off, give me a, just a quick on Clarence Thomas. As I look at, as I look at not just the, the abortion issue, as I look at everything coming out of the Supreme Court right now, you go, what's up with this guy? Go ahead.
Well, he set the stage. He wants us to look at, he wants the Supreme Court to look at, you know, same sex marriages. Look at the right to contraception. Now, Roe versus Wade, we know almost 60% of the American public believes that that was a bad decision, to overturn that.
Mm-hmm.
But we know that, that over 70% believe in the right of same-sex marriage, over 90% believe in the right to contraception, that it should be made available universally.
Are, are they reading this into Clarence Thomas or has he made statements?
No, he actually, he cited the cases he wanted to go back and see, and these are the cases.
And what would they be, Rick, specifically? What, what types of, I mean, obviously big social issues.
Well, it was Griswold and Connecticut, which was about government cannot interfere with the people's right to procure contraceptives.
Right.
That's, that's the oldest one. That's 1965. 2003 Lawrence versus Texas, where they effectively, you know, that they overturned a Texas law that said that people of the same sex couldn't marry.
Correct.
So he's, these are the cases he cited.
And he's saying, I wanna go back and look at these.
I wanna go back and look at those.
Okay.
You know, that's why they have a lower approval rating than Biden.
Yeah, yeah
The Supreme Court does.
Yeah, yeah. Thanks for joining me. Okay.
Good to be here.
