‘Walgreens, Are You Just Scared of All These Old White Men?’: Whoopi Reacts to Walgreens Not Offering Abortion Pills in 21 States
EXCERPT:
GOLDBERG: “Now, 21 Republican — (applause) — 21 Republican attorney generals have threatened legal action against Walgreens if they mail abortion pills in their states, citing a federal law they claim prohibits it. But the U.S. Justice Department disagreed saying, it’s okay to mail these pills as long as the drug is taken lawfully. So Walgreens, are you just scared of all these old white men who are coming after you? Because you never — you can — don’t be scared of them, be scared of the women. (applause) Be scared of the women because when women decide that you have stepped on their rights, you know, you have to pay attention to that. Now, we have very different ideas at this table about abortion and that’s okay because that’s what’s going on in the country.”
