Could Supreme Court Leak Boost Democrats Ahead of Midterms?

Protests and debates have sparked across the country after the leak of a draft opinion from the Supreme Court revealed Roe v. Wade could soon be overturned. Some Democrats have called for crafting legislation to codify abortion rights at the federal level, yet their slim majority in both houses of Congress make the chances of this passing unlikely. The Biden administration must grapple with the aftermath of this leak as the economy lags and the influx of migrants at the southern border continues to surge. Democratic Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin serves Michigan’s 8th district and she joins the Rundown to discuss how Roe v. Wade’s impacts Democrats ahead of the 2022 midterms, her goals with creating the ‘Ukraine Lend-Lease Act’, and what she believes must be done to ease the chaos at the border.

As Russia intensifies its attacks against Ukraine, countries across Europe are working to strengthen their sanctions, even considering a ban on Russian oil. While the EU weighs sanctions, President Biden recently proposed $33 billion in military aid for Ukraine to Congress. The sanctions come as Russia has intensified its attacks against Ukraine the past week, continuing to bombard cities such as Mariupol. Retired Army Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster was the National Security Advisor under former President Trump. He joins the Rundown to discuss the urgency to provide Ukraine with necessary weapons to defend themselves, attempts to denuclearize North Korea, and why he believes Iran remains a threat to the U.S.
