but I will say the size of the crowd here has grown significantly Within the last 30 minutes or so as the news has really gotten out Hey,
benny johnson
ladies and gentlemen, all right, so we've been getting a couple of, we're going to be switching feeds here.
We're going to take Nancy Pelosi.
Who is speaking right now on this issue.
unidentified
Nancy Pelosi.
Well, never mind.
benny johnson
We missed her.
Yeah, we missed her.
All right.
So Pelosi was speaking, and now she's not.
So we'll just go back to...
We'll go back to...
Now, Bubbles being blown at the Supreme Court.
We didn't really want to hear Nancy Pelosi.
Hey, Sam, if you go to that stream that you were on, you can actually just toggle back.
So if you go to that NBC stream.
unidentified
You know, I didn't think I had a good feeling about today, but then that kind of drifted away when I saw some of the police.
benny johnson
Yeah.
I thought typically when the police hear.
Yeah, so toggle back.
Keep going.
Keep going.
unidentified
Ah, there we go.
Alright.
Let's see.
benny johnson
Can we hear her?
I want the salty tears.
I want the tears to flow.
I want the saltiest, salty tears from Nancy Pelosi to flow.
nancy pelosi
There's health and safety.
But the Congress will continue to act.
To overcome this extremism and protect the American people.
Today, the Republican-controlled Supreme Court has achieved their dark, extreme goal of ripping away a woman's right to make their own reproductive health decisions.
Because of Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, and the Republican Party, their supermajority in the Supreme Court, American women today have less freedom than their mothers.
With Roe and their attempt to destroy it, radical Republicans are charging ahead with their crusade to criminalize health freedom.
In the Congress, be aware of this.
The Republicans are plotting a nationwide abortion ban.
They cannot be allowed to have a majority in the Congress to do that.
But that's our goal.
And if you read, and again, we're all studying all this, but you read what is very clear.
Got it.
One of the justices had his own statement.
It's about contraception, in vitro fertilization, family planning.
That is all what will spring from there.
It's such a contradiction.
Yesterday, they say the states cannot make laws governing the constitutional right to bear arms.
And today, they're saying the exact reverse, that the states can overturn a constitutional right for 50 years, a constitutional right for women.
Having the right to choose.
The hypocrisy is raging, but the harm is endless.
What this means to women is such an insult.
It's a slap in the face to women about using their own judgment to make their own decisions about their reproductive freedom.
And again, it goes well.
I always have said the termination of a pregnancy is just their opening act.
It's just their front game.
But behind it, and for years, I have seen in this Congress opposition to any family planning, domestic or global, when we have had those discussions and those debates and those votes on the floor of the House.
This is deadly serious.
But we are not going to let this pass.
A woman's right to choose reproductive freedom is on the ballot in November.
We cannot allow them to take charge so that they can institute their goal, which is to criminalize reproductive freedom.
To criminalize it.
Right now, they're saying in states that they can arrest doctors and all the rest.
What is happening here?
What is happening here?
A woman's fundamental health decisions are her own to make in consultation with her doctor, her faith, her family.
benny johnson
What's happening here is you're losing.
You lost.
nancy pelosi
Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell packed the court with.
While Republicans seek to punish and control women, Democrats will keep fighting ferociously.
To enshrine Roe v.
Wade into the law of the land.
This cruel ruling is outrageous and heart-wrenching, but make no mistake, again, it's all on the ballot in November.
The Supreme Court has ended a constitutional right.
This is 50 years proclaimed a constitutional right.
What happened today was historic in many respects.
Historic in that it had not granted, recognized a constitutional right and then reversed it.
This is a first.
And again, just before it imposed a constitutional right to allow for concealed weapons.
How about those justices coming before the senators and saying that they respected?
Sara decides that the president of the court, that they respected the right of privacy in the Constitution of the United States.
Did you hear that?
She's so mad!
benny johnson
Were they not telling the truth then?
unidentified
I heard it!
nancy pelosi
Just getting to the gun issue, because really, in preparation for this morning, I was...
Really an exalted state about what happened in the United States Senate yesterday.
Counterpoint to the dangerous decision of this Trumpian Supreme Court that they made yesterday.
But a way to take us to, as the bill is called, community safety.
The bipartisan Safer Communities Act.
Right now, and I'm going to have to leave momentarily because we just finished voting on the rule.
We will be debating the bill on the floor, and we expect a good bipartisan vote on it in the House.
We congratulate the Senate on the work that they have done and the timeliness of it to be passed in the Senate in a strong bipartisan way on a day when the court made such a dangerous, dangerous decision.
We will— Many of our House Democrats' proposals that are included in this package are that keep deadly weapons out of dangerous hands by encouraging states to establish extreme risk protection order laws, ERPO, otherwise known as red flag laws, help put into straw purchases, close the boyfriend loophole.
So many good things are in there.
And it's not everything that we want.
We must keep moving toward background checks.
But universal background checks, which will save the most lives.
benny johnson
But this will save lives.
nancy pelosi
And to listen to Lucy McGrath and other family members of those who have lost their loved ones, this is a giant step forward.
Maybe not so much a giant, but a strong step forward.
And if it's good enough for them...
unidentified
Then we rejoice in passing it.
nancy pelosi
As I say to members all the time with legislation, do not judge it for what isn't in it, but respect it for what is.
And there's much to be respected in this legislation.
Now, she's going to do a Q&A here, so— On a happier note, yesterday we celebrated 50 years of Title IX, which has transformed equality and
unidentified
opportunity— Thank you
for being with us.
Can you give us your reaction, not only to the decision...
Some of what Speaker Pelosi just said.
We are just thrilled by the Supreme Court overturning Roe v.
Wade.
It's long past due.
With respect to what the speaker says, I know it's a very emotional issue, but she continually overlooks the fact that women support overturning Roe v.
Wade.
Democrats support overturning Roe v.
Wade.
Not all Democrats are celebrating this.
Not all Democrats advocate for.
We have an opportunity here as a party to bring people together on this issue and look to see how we can support women.
I hear a lot of talk about shipping women off to other states to get an abortion.
How about helping women where they are?
How about looking at ways to help women stay in school, ways for women to keep their jobs and have their babies?
And providing women with real choice rather than abortion is the only solution, as we have done for decades.
The speaker mentioned criminalization.
Is that where you think this is going?
And is that something you would support?
Absolutely not.
I signed a letter with pro-life leaders saying we do not want to criminalize women for seeking abortion.
A woman who is in an unplanned pregnancy and in that situation deserves compassion, love, and support, and not criminalization.
So we, I think, the pro-life women and men and women that I work with are united.
I had a feeling that was going to happen.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We had a feeling like every decision day, but...
This one felt more intense.
God bless.
Thank you for your coverage in all of this, man.
Because how can people follow you?
Because you're documenting a lot of this on your social media.
Obviously, you're a very highly skilled photographer.
How can people follow you?
So people can follow me on Instagram at eternallystoked.
That's eternallystoked.
There you go.
Thank you so much.
Mark Story joining us in front of the Supreme Court.
And I got to tell you, you know, sometimes I get lost for words as well because this is a very personal And I've shared this on the network.
And there's a reason why that God has placed me at this company, at this time, on this day, in front of that building.
And it's because of the decision that was handed down today.
And I feel like that God is shining upon this country, is shining upon this network.
And He's shining upon you and I right now as we enter some very difficult days.
But this is a day that we should all celebrate in the eyes and the name of glory.
All thanks be to God, because today is a day that we should celebrate life, and that's exactly what we're doing here at our nation's capital.
I also want to remind everybody to make sure, make sure you follow us on our social media platforms, because things are going to be unfolding not only today, but the next couple of days, and that would be the best place to get the latest updates on what's going on, not only here, but around the country and around our nation's, you know, cities, Chicago.
Philadelphia, New York, Miami, there's been chatter that there's going to be some protests, so we'll be on top of that as well.
So you can follow me on social media as well, at BrianGlennTV, across the board, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, not really on YouTube, but Instagram, Facebook, Truth Social, and Getter.
You can definitely follow me on that as well.
All right, guys.
But this is it right now, guys.
If you're wondering what it's like in front of the Supreme Court, here it is.
Celebration praise as it's been decades and finally the reversal coming on the Roe v.
Wade and obviously people are We've been live now for an hour.
benny johnson
I gotta tell you, this has been a moment of extreme jubilation.
I cannot believe that I'm seeing this with my own two eyes.
You are seeing the dancing, the cheering.
The joy and the happiness of the Supreme Court.
Life has won today.
Salty Nancy Pelosi is so, so salty.
We are rejoicing and some breaking news.
Missouri has now become the first state to outlaw abortion.
The Attorney General signed an opinion moments ago.
It's a monumental day for the sanctity of life.
SCOTUS ruling overturned.
Roe v.
Wade, Missouri has become the first state in the country to end abortion.
Ladies and gentlemen, some quotes from the decision that must be read.
Justice Alito, very, very good quotes.
Here we go.
unidentified
Just a second here.
And prayer is a big part of this, and we've talked about it.
You know, there's the disconnect, the spiritual warfare.
benny johnson
Alito decision.
Roe was egregiously wrong from the start, and its reasoning was exceptionally weak.
And the decision has been damaging and had consequences.
Alito deeply based.
We have some incredible breaking news now out.
Alito saying that only women can get pregnant in the decision.
The regulation of medical procedure that only one sex can undergo does not trigger heightened constitutional scrutiny unless the regulation is mere pretext designed to affect and discriminate against other members of one sex.
Sorry guys, had to scroll there for a second.
So Alito then in the same decision saying that only women can get pregnant.
Be sadder.
Libs.
Cry more.
Libs.
You saw Nancy.
She was crying there moments ago.
Ted Cruz on the Dobbs decision.
Nothing short of a massive victory for life.
The decision reverses one of the most egregious departures from the Constitution and legal precedent in the United States has ever seen and one that has resulted in the deaths of 63 million.
Justice Alito, we hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled.
The Constitution makes...
No reference to abortion.
No such right is implicitly protected in the constitutional provision.
It's here, ladies and gentlemen.
America is a life sanctuary for two reasons based on the Supreme Court.
One, because you have now the capacity to protect your life with a firearm.
The Supreme Court ruled that yesterday in a dominant 6-3 decision.
And now you have the right to be born.
Now, that doesn't mean that abortion is illegal in America.
It means that abortion will be legal in some states and illegal in other states.
And that it will become now a state battle, which is exactly what Democrats don't want.
Democrats don't want to have to answer these questions.
Uh-oh.
Who's rolling through?
unidentified
Look at this.
benny johnson
What's going on?
unidentified
like a march going through here Okay, we have a pro-choice.

They flow.
It's actually a parade of tears.
There they go.
unidentified

benny johnson
Oh, man.
So good.
Josh Hawley says the DOJ needs to announce zero tolerance policy for violence.
They've left radical leftists run wild, threatening the justices, burning pregnancy centers.
No more protests are constitutionally protected.
Violence is not.
DOJ must stop it immediately.
You've had 16 crisis pregnancy centers bombed or burned.
You've had 16 attacks on various pro-life institutions and churches.
You've had a Supreme Court justice with a potential assassination attempt.
