rights la of the year to share his personal views about religion. but the problem is alito and the other right-wing justices are imposing their personal, moral and political beliefs on all of us. and new reports show how they re using made up plaintiffs in recent supreme court cases to do it. also tonight, new details on donald trump s efforts to over turn his election loss in arizona. amid new reporting that jack smith is giving close scrutiny to trump s clown car team of lawyers. plus america post dobbs. north carolina s 12 week abortion ban take effect as republicans in ohio make it much harder to protect abortion rights even though a majority of the ohioans support those protections. and we begin on the eve of the fourth of july. during a time in america where a lot of people are seeing their freedoms being taken away. and that is in large part due to the supreme court of the united states. mainly the court s six conservative judges whose decisions last week peeling
rights because we can t have a supreme court of the law of the land that the people can t trust. well you could get 67 members of the united states senate to think about your voting when you vote for the senate because if you got 67 democrats in there willing to impeach one more thor of them, they could win an impeachment. just like with the president. we talked about adf. that is alliance defending freedom and they re also behind the dobbs case which ended abortion rights and behind the five prist own. here is from the magazine in 2022 about this group alliance defending freedom. adf has received six figure sums from donor trust and donors capital fund, entities designed to hide the identity of the right-wing donors, the charles koch group also gave them $275,000 in 2020. your thoughts on fact that this
decisions for all ohioans instead of us making them for ourselves. and we re determined, we are absolutely determined both to furn turn out to vote in august to vote no and then in november to vote yes. because there is no circumstance that we ll surrender to this tyranny and that we ll give up our body autonomy and that we won t fight for our friends and neighbors whose lives depend on these two votes this year. and i know you ve interviewed the vice president and i ll let you go ahead because i want to find out what the administration thinks this is going to do to the overall look of the of this year s elections. but please. well, joy, i just want to pick up on the last point that was made. what we do know, in the wake of dobbs, you have had when abortion is on the ballot, they have been success. . they are 6 for 6 so for in ohio and it is the next one up. so with this move to try to make it harder, for the initiative to pass, because when the people
