Sen. Tom Cotton and CNN’s Kaitlan Collins clash over IVF: ‘You’re not going to stop me there!’

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) and CNN host Kaitlan Collins engaged in a tense discussion over fertility treatments Tuesday night during which the lawmaker forcefully prevented the anchor from interjecting.

“No, Kaitlan, you’re not going to stop me there,” the senator told Collins, whom he accused of misrepresenting his position on in vitro fertilization.

Collins invited Cotton onto her primetime news show “The Source” to discuss a move by Senate Republicans to block a bill put forward by Democrats that would have codified into federal law a right to IVF.

The bill failed to get the necessary 60 votes to achieve cloture as 44 Republican senators voted against it despite the fact that former President Donald Trump has stated that he supports free IVF treatments.

That’s their favorite tactic, talk over or change the subject in order that the public never hears the opposite views .

This woman is insane! She talks thru ppl and ignores their response. She kept staggering questions on top of questions and interrupted the guest non-stop. She is just one sad human being.

Shes a one trick pony "Let me stop you there"

Why did they play this little clip instead of the whole conversation? You don’t even know what they’re talking about. For those of you that haven’t seen the whole thing she lies and misrepresents the facts and he calls her out on her BS point by point.

Sen Cotton goes on these hostile shows and destroys them, he’s a skilled debater, always seems over prepared never off guard, and the confidence he has in his convections is iron clad,

Mr. Thinlips is so insecure about what he is saying he is afraid to let her talk. Weak as sh....

Enough with trying pass laws in the name of religion. This country was founded on people escaping religious persecution.
