to hear arguments on the texas near total abortion ban. the controversial law flies in the face of almost 50 years of abortion rights rulings and the court has twice already rejected pleas to suspend it. what sets this case apart is the texas law does not depend on state officials to enforce it. anyone can file a private lawsuit against a provider and seek a cash reward. joining the panel is ian miller, john allen and former congresswoman donna edwards back with me. can you read the tea leaves? the court rules against the case once before. do you expect it to be different
according to ian when that comes up specifically. that s right. the mississippi case is different. ian, let s get your thoughts on a few other cases. the supreme court expected to hear a case of a major second amendment question. torture that we follow closely. what does it tell us that they are expediting the cases all at once? should we read into this? is it a standard practice for the court? no. this is going to be an unusually busy term and a term that has a whole lot of very profile cases. there are now three major abortion cases argued this term a big second amendment case. there s a huge case that they just granted to gut the epa s power. yes. yeah. so there s you normally see
