“This court has lost legitimacy. They have burned whatever legitimacy they still may have had after their gun decision, after their voting decision, after their union decision,” Warren said.

“They just took the last of it and set a torch to it with the Roe v. Wade opinion,” she added.

“I believe we need to get some confidence back in our court and that means we need more justices on the United States Supreme Court.”

Warren also said that she was “deeply concerned” about Justice Clarence Thomas’ suggestion in his concurring opinion to the Roe v. Wade ruling that the Supreme Court should reconsider opinions protecting same-sex relationships, marriage equality and access to contraceptives.
