i mean, on the dobbs decision, when i saw they were quoting from old english common law, precolonial times to english prosecutors and judges, i just immediately said let's search and see how involved they were in witch trials. if you were practicing law in england at that time, there was a good chance. >> witch trials were a big deal back then. >> and both of them believed witches should be put to death and it was their view of abortion. justice alito wanted us to adopt in the 21st century. >> yeah. we have an american system of justice. a proven mechanism for making sure the facts are truthful and that is that you develop them in the trial court. where they can fight or the facts. if the neutral judge gets it wrong, you can get the facts wrong. then it is set to give it back. the arguments in the supreme court, in the end of the process, nobody can say another word. that is where you parachute a whole boat load of false facts. that's not the way the system is supposed to work. for hundreds of years it has not worked that way. this is a novel trick that the roberts court has pulled.
