While everyone else was watching Donald Trump this week, Samantha Bee had her eyes on Ohio.



Taking a break from covering what she calls the "nonstop (expletive) geyser of presidential news," Bee dedicated a segment to Ohio's proposed "heartbeat bill," which would ban abortions after the fetus' heartbeat could be detected, which is sometimes as early as six weeks.



As Bee points out, most women don't even know they're pregnant at six weeks. "Especially now, since every time we wake up and realize Trump is president, we all have morning sickness."

Ohio's Republican Gov. John Kasich, a staunch pro-lifer, hasn't yet signed the bill, which passed the state's house and legislature, potentially because of its shaky legal standing. “And this is a man who puts his signature and countless condiment stains on every anti-abortion bill that lands on his desk," Bee joked.

"And he's right. A restriction this early is about as illegal as crack. And much like crack, it was smuggled past the guards hidden in something else," Bee said, explaining how House Republicans tacked the provision onto another bill about teen child abuse.

“Overturning Roe has always been the pro-lifers' wet dream, and the way things are going, it’s a wet dream that may soon be required by law to have a full and dignified burial," she continued.
