Where the Right Will Strike Next After Its Big Abortion Win

It is a truth universally acknowledged that the podcaster is fated to release an episode right as the news cycle renders them hopelessly out-of-date. That\u2019s the worst thing to come from the revelation that the Supreme Court is essentially set to overturn Roe v. Wade, obviously. Aghast and mind-blown, co-hosts Molly Jong-Fast and Andy Levy attempt to break down this \u201cnew, new, new abnormal\u201d we all find ourselves in as the country teeters on the edge of becoming a post-Roe democracy. How did we get here\u2014and, more importantly, what happens now? That, plus: Daily Beast legal affairs columnist and former Supreme Court clerk Jay Michaelson discusses how Justice Samuel Alito cultivates his Scalia-esque brand on the bench and how the abortion\u2019s writing has been on the wall for \u201cyears, if not decades.\u201d And Valerie Biden Owens, the president\u2019s sister and former campaign manager, talks about running the 1972 \u201cchildren\u2019s crusade\u201d that catapulted her brother into elected office for the first time\u2014and why she now lovingly refers to him as \u201cthe ass.\u201d Finally: don\u2019t believe the Christian right used to trumpet that life began at birth? Read this, and get back to us.
