THE WEEK IN WHOPPERS: WH PRESS SECRETARY'S STUNNING IGNORANCE, THE NEW YORK TIMES'S STEALTHY OMISSION, AOC AND MORE

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade was an "unconstitutional act."

Diary of disturbing disinformation and dangerous delusions

This claim

“[Overturning Roe] was an unconstitutional act.” - WH Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, Aug. 3

We say: Jean-Pierre often says wild things, but is she totally unfamiliar with the US judicial system, Article III of the Constitution (giving “judicial power” to the court) and the concept of “judicial review”?
