Former presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren voiced her concerns over the leaked draft opinion document that stated that the Supreme Court would overturn Roe V. Wade.
Warren said she was “angry” over what the draft had said.
“I am angry,” said Warren. “Angry and upset, but determined.”
“I am here because I am angry, and I am here because the United States Congress can change all of this. Angry, but committed,” Warren said.

Warren was then accused by someone in the crowd who said that Warren wanted to “dismember children.”
Warren would then go on to call him an extremist and walk away.
“We’ve heard enough from the extremists,” she said.
Warren accused Republicans of “plotting, carefully cultivating these Supreme Court justices so they could have a majority on the bench who would accomplish something that the majority of Americans do not want.”
“They knew what they were getting when they voted for these people. And this is what they want. It is up to the rest of us to make the legislative process work,” she said on Wednesday.
“What should be investigated and prosecuted is the fact that people who were nominated to the Supreme Court stood up and said they believed in the rule of law and precedent, and then at first opportunity, changed direction by 180 degrees and are going for a full repeal of Roe,” Warren said of the document.
