Jonathan Turley Dropkicks the Attacks From Pelosi, Biden and AOC Over SCOTUS Decision

Democrats are attacking the Supreme Court, with people like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) declaring that the Court is “illegitimate” and calling for people to get out in the “streets.” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) even said it explicitly — that they should “defy” the decision of the Court. Talk about ‘insurrection’ and throwing norms right out the window. These are the very same people melting down over the three-hour riot on Jan. 6.
My colleague Mike Miller wrote about the comments by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on the SCOTUS abortion decision today (Friday) that overturned Roe. Pelosi attacked the Court in her remarks, calling them the “radical Supreme Court” and “Republican-controlled Supreme Court.”
Remember before Joe Biden, when we all used to understand that you have to accept the decision of the Court–even if you don’t like it? The Democrats are now trying to bulldozer that norm, basically declaring the Court equivalent to her Republican opponents, and we know how she attacks them.
Among the things that Pelosi was deceptive about in her remarks was falsely claiming that the SCOTUS decision meant the justices were next coming to take away rights regarding contraception and other privacy issues. But, the majority made it clear in their decision that this had nothing to do with any other issue/right and specifically said it only applied to abortion and did not apply to anything else.
Justice Clarence Thomas made a reference to the other ‘privacy’ issues in his concurrence, but Pelosi is erroneously interpreting what he said (we’ll have a great breakdown from my colleague Susie Moore on that subject, also).
