■今日の注目語句
[04:09] Now, here is Mary Ziegler. She's a law professor at U.C. Davis and she's written extensively on abortion. [** Mary Ziegler 前回番組登場時 see also: https://note.com/wgc888/n/nb441ba7ad003 ]
MARY ZIEGLER, University of California, Davis: The impact in the short term is going to be pretty limited. The court's ruling will have the effect of reinstating the injunction in the district court that allowed emergency abortions to continue in Idaho. It doesn't really have any impact on any of the other states with narrow abortion bans or on any of the other litigation around these questions that's been proceeding in other courts. So, for the most part, this is deferring a decision and kicking the can down the road, although it will have immediate impacts in Idaho.
[04:50] JOHN YANG: It was very interesting, because, essentially, this is an administrative order, but there were four written opinions. The conservatives, the three most conservative justices, Justice Alito, who, of course, wrote the opinion overturning Roe two years ago, Justice Thomas and Justice Gorsuch, dissented.
[06:10] Well, as Amna mentioned, the court also blocked an EPA regulation meant to protect states downwind from polluting neighbors. Tell us about that ruling. JOHN YANG: This is a plan called -- that the EPA calls Good Neighbors. They wanted to work with the states to limit air pollution that drifts across state lines. This was challenged by the state of Ohio and some corporate interests. Today, in a 5 to -- 5-4 decision, Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote that the challengers were unlikely -- I'm sorry -- the challengers were likely to prevail in the end because the EPA had not fully justified what they were doing.
[06:48] GEOFF BENNETT: The EPA has lost a handful of cases before the court in recent years. Is there a theme that connects these cases?
JOHN YANG: Oh, absolutely. There is a -- this conservative majority in this court has really -- it's been consistent in trying to rein in what they call the administrative state. They say -- they have said in case after case, not only in environmental law, but in other regulatory agencies, saying that the regulators can't do anything unless they're specifically authorized to do it by law.
[08:00] JOHN YANG: And, in fact, today, the state -- the court took another swipe at a regulatory agency. They said the SEC's use of internal panels of administrative judges, to decide or to judge civil claims about securities fraud were unconstitutional because they violated the Seventh Amendment right to a jury trial.
[12:46] In the Middle East, around 20 critically ill children were cleared to leave Gaza today, along with dozens of their companions in what Palestinian officials say was the first medical evacuation since the Rafah border was shut down last month. Among those evacuated, "News Hour" has learned, was 3-year-old Julia Abu-Zaiter, who suffers from a rare neurological disorder and whose story we brought you last month. [** 関連ニュース ]
[26:23] KEVIN MADDEN, Republican Strategist: Well, look, I think you probably have about 95 percent of the audience tonight is going to be tuning in with a rooting interest. Like, even if they're not happy with the candidates and they wish somebody else was running, they're probably more inclined to already vote for -- if they already are leaning Republican or leaning Democrat.
[28:34] GUY CECIL, Democratic Strategist: Yes, well, first of all, the calm Donald Trump may RSVP to the debate, but I think we all know he's probably not going to stay around very long.
(LAUGHTER)
GUY CECIL: Then the other Donald Trump will show up.
[45:48] KATE TULLY: Some farmers will start planting sorghum or another crop that might be more salt-tolerant and have less inputs, but it's going to have a lower return on it. I mean, it's a lower profit.
[50:20] TYLONN SAWYER: Yes, it's OK to remember the tragedy, in and of itself, but also enjoy the beauty of who these people are. It's my goal that those two things are constantly butting up against each other.
[51:01] CHRISTOPHER BOOKER: The biennial features more than 170 artists representing over a century of queer self-expression, from early 20th-century German photographer Baron von Gloeden, one of the founders of modern gay iconography, to painter Hugh Steers, who captured everyday life under the specter of AIDS in 1980s New York, to contemporary artists, like Detroiter Bre'Ann White.
[52:21] PATRICK BURTON: The word (faggot) is something that's now just being introduced as an affirming word, a word to take back. And I know that not everybody agrees with that idea.
[53:23] LINDA SIMPSON: In the East Village, they were celebrating drag in sort of a tongue-in-cheek, you know, "it's so out that it's in" way, and that really intrigued me, because it had almost like an artsy feel to it and sort of punk rock.
