MSNBC’s Kirschner rants about criminal charges for Justice Alito over draft opinion on Roe
May 22, 2022 | Ashley Hill
MSNBC’s legal analyst Glenn Kirschner went nuclear in response to the leaked Roe v. Wade opinion that would push jurisdiction over abortion to the states and claimed that Justice Samuel Alito should be slapped with perjury charges for allegedly backpedaling on his stance on abortion now that a relevant case is making its way through the high court.
Kirschner asserted on Friday’s episode of “The Dean Obeidallah Show” that the conservative judge should be impeached for lying to Congress during his confirmation hearing.
“Any talk of potentially investigating them for impeachment or impeaching them, because they’ll bring up that these people lied and they’ll say, nope, no one’s talking about it. And I guess they know it’s not going to win in the Senate. And is it too close of a line? But what is your take on what you heard?” Dean Obeidallah asked the former federal prosecutor. “And what do you think these people are exposing themselves to, or should be exposed to?
Kirschner accused the justice of misrepresenting and deceiving himself under oath, apparently for the crime of not having a crystal ball and knowing what specific case may come before him in the future that would – at least in the draft opinion – prompt him to vote to overturn the landmark 1973 opinion regarding abortion.
“Well, my take is all of those justices misrepresented and deceived the senators and by extension, the American people under oath during their confirmation hearings. Why? Because they couldn’t speak the truth,” he said.
