Wrapping up a NATO summit, President Joe Biden says America is stronger than ever except for "outrageous" actions from Supreme Court on abortion rights.

President Joe Biden said Thursday he would support changing filibuster rules in the Senate to make it easier to codify the right to abortion and the right to privacy into federal law following last week's Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade.

Biden called the ruling "outrageous" and "destabilizing" and said Congress must overturn it by writing Roe v. Wade into law. "And if the filibuster gets in the way, it's like voting rights — we should provide an exception for this," he said during a news conference in Madrid, where he is wrapping up a six-day trip to Europe.

  1. يٱرب أتوسل إليك بحق إسمك الأعضم ان ترزق صاحب أليد التي ستدعــمنـــي بأ متابعة ورزق لاينتهي وتوفيق لانهايه ♥️🕊️

    1. @Squidface ironically you meant that’s.

      Yes Trump started no new wars, hasn’t buried us in inflation and high gas prices (caused by over-regulation not companies who for no reason decided they like more money).

  2. The same privacy rights you’re bragging about about your government putting out a list of consceed carry owners?

    1. @Cyndy Butler – I haven’t even told you WHAT I believe, so how did you come to that conclusion? You didn’t give any specifics, you gave opinions – not facts, and assumptions…………..literally, everything you said – is a hypothetical, but that’s how Republicans have a discussion….it’s never substantive or civil.

    2. @Cyndy Butler – sure you did. You believe what you want to believe – what you’re told to believe and then you regurgitate all of it and think it’s the truth, but whose truth?

      Make sure you hold Republicans to the same standard you hold Democrats to….oh, and I’m not a Democrat, but I believe in accountability, regardless of which party is in the White House. Stop putting your party over country.

  3. “And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life.
    And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.
    The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 
    Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.” (REVELATION 20:12-15 NKJV)

    Today, while you are still alive and able, may you repent from your sins, believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that JESUS CHRIST is your Lord and Savior, so that through Him, your name will be written in the Book of Life.

    “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever BELIEVES in Him 
    should not perish but have everlasting life.
    For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” (JOHN 3:16-17 NKJV)

    The gift of Salvation and Eternal Life is available to all. You can RECEIVE it. You can REJECT it. Please choose wisely…

  4. “But we need to do more. This is not about freedom or personal choice. It’s about protecting yourself and those around you — the people you work with, the people you care about, the people you love.

    My job as President is to protect all America”- LESCO BRANDON.

  5. Even if you eliminated the filibuster, you still could not make an abortion law. The Supreme Court has just ruled this is a state issue.
    The only way would be to pass an amendment, and that isn’t happening when you need 3/4 of the House, Senate, and states to concur.

  6. Imagine if American women were legally allowed to forego motherhood through abortion and adoption, without being legally responsible for child support; yet American men are unable to legally forgo fatherhood without permission from women and are forced to pay pay child support. Double standards and female privilege are fun kids. Hands off their bodies, Hands off our wallets

  7. 2 false facts right at the start:

    1) Our inflation rate is among the lowest in the world – no, it is 8 to 9%, and 15% by the old metric.

    2) Our economy is the biggest in the world – by GDP PPP, China is 30 trillion and US at 25 trillion.

    I stopped watching after that.
