Civil Rights attorney and Texas Attorney General candidate, Lee Merritt, joins News NOW to discuss why he describes the new law as “egregious,†and what action he would take on the law if elected as Texas’ attorney general.ÂÂÂ

Of course leftist media has to bring in the race issue, next is immigration I'm sure. Ugh what race baiters. Need more clicks do you?
The concept of bodily autonomy has always been an alien concept to many Americans. Just look at how prevalent infant circumcision is in their country. Infant circumcision is clearly a violation of bodily autonomy and yet many of them still support the barbaric practice. I hope Americans would wake up and realise that. Bodily autonomy is for all gender.
Women love to whine about “my constitutional right to abortionâ€ÂÂ. I think anyone can agree that the framers of the constitution would not support the killing of the unborn.
Being told to take a vaccination is racist
California should instate an anti-gun that puts a $10,000 bounty, for anyone who buys or supplies guns. Since now that we can skip the constitution.
Racism has literally lost its meaning, it just means "things we don't like" now.
I have a masters in computer science and I can't make sense of this video title
Birth control should be FREE worldwide!
Food should be free worldwide!
Housing should be free worldwide!
Destroy capitalism because capitalists think it’s right to give all the money to a few rich people, which is insane!
Equality means equal wealth worldwide!
Abortion is racist, Just ask the RACIST that started “Planned Parenthood†and “WHY�
I will support abortion when the law makes it retroactive for democrats.
Left insatiable hunger to take away rights. When they lose they immediately want to change the rules, change justices rewrite the system until they steal control again. Pathetic
The media made it racist. Surprise!

"I SUPPORT THE TEXAS LAW OF BAN FOR ABORTION!"
I want to emphasise on this topic. First of all nobody owns their body. I'm going to repeat again, nobody owns their body, this includes me. It is temporary while we have life. However, one sweet end with our life or our life has ended, the body does not go with us it still remains here. So whoever has the incompetence of thinking that it is your body or in this case like women like to say, it is their body? No the answer is it is not their body. The body belongs to our creator also known as God. There may be a lot of you out there that don't believe in God. But whether you believe in him or not, that is the reality. If it weren't for God you wouldn't even be alive. If it weren't for God you wouldn't even have a body to use. In a way, you could say that God our creator of this Earth and universe allow us to have a body but not permanently because we don't take it with us once we're dead. And women in general or even men should understand that the body does not go with us when we're dead. That is the bottom line and no one owns their body. If You follow God you exactly know what I am talking about. Most of you need to to really understand who GOD really is…..âœÂÂï¸ÂÂðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼
If only 2% of Americans believe abortion should be banned under all circumstances, then why has the Texas legislature banned all abortions? They propose to represent the 2% over the 98%? Is this why they were elected? Whom do they serve?
That's is pure BS
Boo hoo. https://youtu.be/we6FXOcJUw8
It's so telling that the media is so comfortable using the word "race" even though it doesn't have a clear definition or application.
How many "Races" are there?
What are the parameters?
If I were President of the United States, I'd arrest all those who promote abortion, take them to Guantanamo Bay, and they wouldn't be seen or heard of again. That is what should be done.
Imagine being upset that babies will live!!
So there will be more Reprobates living in Texas. You will grudgingly reap what you sow.
Just when I thought it was impossible for the media to make me care less about this story…
How to defend killing babies and blame everything on racist 101. Be a modern day liberal.
Don’t give up when u know that they he ufo and the Elite like to have babies that are seeded with ancient DNA sequence to help their children become smarter but really the Elite are just letting them carry their offspring so they have more control over their own families! Hahah laugh cause they are the pon in the Angels agenda of this hidden verbiage they all received in college lol feel empowered to impoverished humanity for financial Elite freedom!

She The mother is sharing her heart until he or she can grow one because he is alive. What u perceive in pictures inside ur stomach is real and exists. Unborn yet not dead. Don't save your career "perfect life"! Save your Soul! Some don't care where it is going!
Of course, insert race where it doesn't belong.
thank GOD for this new law…abortion is murder
Abortions are racist wah wah
My wallet my choice
it’s a good thing i don’t live in that communist state. Abbott is a dictator
