The New York Times has reported that Samual Alito lied to the late Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy in meetings designed to convince the senator that Alito would not overturn Roe v. Wade if confirmed to the Supreme Court.
Alito's own words that the Roe decision represented an "abuse of judicial authority" and "Roe was egregiously wrong from the start" reveal that his testimony at his Senate confirmation hearing was untrue when he signaled his abiding respect for the "settled law" and the "important precedent" of Roe v. Wade.
This video discusses what steps must now be taken by both the Department of Justice and Congress when we become aware that a judge lied to Senate and, by extension, to the American people, concealing his determination, indeed burning desire, to revoke the constitutional privacy rights of women.
