Finn Keenan was interviewed by Newsweek's Zoë Schlanger on Friday afternoon, hours after the SCOTUS 5-4 decision was handed down. Draped in rainbow flags, he spoke of his pure excitement about the ruling.

"I was shocked, as much as I was excited. I was even a little dumbstruck," Keenan said. "There were literally, like, fireworks erupting in my chest and heart."

He added: "I think this has proven that in this nation, there are no limits. That's what makes the U.S. the U.S."
