The Think Tank delves into two topics this week.

First, the fallout from the leaked draft Supreme Court opinion which suggested that Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortions in America, has rocked the political world. Chris Love, chair of Planned Parenthood Advocates, and Julie Gunnigle, candidate for Maricopa County Attorney, weigh in.

We discuss the legal implications of the likely decision as well as the likely political fallout and implications for this fall’s elections.

Secondly, Karrin Taylor Robson, joins us to discuss her candidacy for governor. (Matt Salmon reported a scheduling conflict and Kari Lake did not respond to our request). We discuss the pending Roe decision, her focus on border issues, bipartisanship, taxes and state spending and other campaign issues.

We will have Democratic candidates on the show next week.

The Think Tank airs on KTAR 92.3 FM on Saturday 6-7 p.m. and Sunday 9-10 p.m.

Podcasts are available after broadcast. Older shows are archived at www.mikeoneil.org.

We want to hear from you.
