Calif. Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis calls Clarence Thomas a 'Saudi Arabian father' over Roe v. Wade
SF Gate ^ | June 24, 2022 | By Eric Ting

After the United States Supreme Court officially overturned Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey on Friday, California Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis appeared on MSNBC to discuss the ruling.

She touted California's plans to become an abortion sanctuary for out-of-state travelers seeking abortions, and also took aim at Justice Clarence Thomas, comparing him to an individual from a country with restrictive laws governing women's behavior.

"Sadly I think that this decision is delegitimizing the Supreme Court," she said. "Who is Clarence Thomas? Is he my Saudi Arabian father who's going to tell me what I can and cannot do with my body, with my life?"

Kounalakis said that people should "be prepared to live in defiance of" the justices in the majority. When asked by host Katy Tur if she was asking for people to break the law, the lieutenant governor said, "I'm telling people that they can access, under California law, their rights that were protected by the Constitution."

What do you like? Guns, the flag, families, pickup trucks, law and order, secure borders, freedom..? The Democrats are against it. So yeah, I would take my chances with the Saudis.

“They can access… their rights.” Dear Kounalakis, You are not God and no, you did not make the universe.

Speaking of parentage, for some reason Kounalakis’s mother is never mentioned in the biographies I have seen on her.Wonder why that is?

Saudi fathers compare favorably to America’s feminized or absent fathers.

California is a one party state. And that party is basically communistic.

She should thank Clarence Thomas.

Her California can be turned into a Saudi Arabia equivalent of Mecca and Medina..

She can dress up like a Saudi Arabian Father if she wants and welcome in all the religious zealots seeking abortions to her California Saudi Arabian like sanctuary..
