supreme court as som republicans struggle to discus the issue. and more questions than answer after today s arrest in th leak of those classified documents on the war in ukraine, as the 11th hour gets underway on this thursday night good evening once again, i m stephanie ruhle. the recently indicted former president donald trump i facing even more legal pressure tonight, trump was back in new york today where he was spent total of eight hours under oath, for a deposition from new york state attorney general tis james. she filed a 250 million dollar civil lawsuit alleging fraud i trump s real estate business practices. trump has denied any wrongdoing and according to a spokesperson, a. g. james with president for some of his testimony, and the added that he spoke, quote, lot. that is a massive change fro his first deposition back in august of last year, when he took the fifth over 400 times. accordingly, under th advice of my counsel and, fo all of the above reasons, respect
restrictions on the fda ability to authorize this drug and so overnight, stephani ruhle, we got this appeals court ruling from what s calle the united states court of appeals for the fifth circuit. it s 40 pages long it s dressed up with a lot o legalese but at the end of the day it s like a legal equivalent of a steve bannon podcast it s ridiculous, it s reckless and is just plain wrong. and it s true the appeals cour put an end to the worst-case scenario, at least for now which is a complete ban on the drug, which is something tha this trial judge decided but this is not some sort of big win for the government because judges are aligned - very - that scenario large numbers of women are going to not be able to ge this drug under the court of appeals ruling it just plain wrong and could be headed down a path to impact half our population juanita tolliver, you and have talked a lot of bout on
here because women and pregnant people will still need to find some way to access medicatio abortion neal, when you think abou what it is like for a woma when she s in the situation, the pressure, the strain confusion, one of the problems is, it s only more confusing right now. we ve got is judging washingto state. and this judge ruled that th drug must remain available i some states. so, how does that ruling fit into all of this yeah, i think juanita tolliver is right. these restrictions are horrible whether it s the dobbs restrictions, which said overturn roe v. wade, which ha been the law for 50 years, o what the court of appeals is doing here with this abortio drug, it s totally wrong and i m optimistic what th supreme court is going to do the right thing here, becaus the court of appeals decisio was just so out there, but i think it s going to be ver hard for the court to do anything else. even in dobbs, when justic
alito wrote the opinion, h said, okay, we are going t overrule roe v. wade, and no this decision should go back t the people and the people have authorized through the fda, this drug, fo decades. and it can t be that two judge can sit in a judgment of tha and flip it. it s particularly true her because as a legal doctrin called standing, which is th idea of who actually gets to file a lawsuit and the theory of standing tha these attackers on the dru have used is that, well, a doctor one day might have to treat someone who has take this abortion drug that has side effect. that is, to put it mildly, a preposterous theory of standing it would mean every doctor could challenge every single drug that the fda had ever approved because it might lead to a side effect that can possibly be the law that s why i think even with a supreme court that he s really attacking it s about fda governmen
