Right before we went live to everybody, we were talking about there's an assault right now on LGBTQ rights, but also on women's rights in the US and with the Dobbs decision that came out nearly, well, two years ago this month, where Half of all Americans have fewer rights than their parents and grandparents because of overturning Roe versus Wade. I remember reading the decision and recognizing that the Supreme Court that we have right now in the US Said in their opinion, basically, Roe was wrongly decided back in 1973 based on a right, a constitutional right to privacy. (10:22–10:31)
