14th and 15th amendments, he has to talk about this defacto injurae, otherwise we will have a supreme court who disenfranchises ohio and chief roberts sanctioned that, sanctioned taking folks off the rolls because they didn t vote. susan, i think his speech who, if general in terms of attracting some black voters, the polls say he s way ahead with black voters. but in the primaries, i think he s going to have to get that specific around supreme court and the other things that i raised because he s running against other candidates that have been specific in the primaries. in terms of democratic vote. that s exactly right, rev. he has competitors. there are going to be people who are going to run against him, who say, what are you going to do about this today and
this is important to watch, because this isn t just you can t look at it in a judicial nomination. this d.c. circuit court has been a launching pad for several supreme court justices. most recently brett kavanaugh but also ruth bader ginsburg, chief roberts, orrell thomas. president trump could have his eye on noemi rao for a future court, not just this one. thank you for making it always understandable for us. president trump calling on a democratic congresswoman to resign on a tweet that many view as anti-semitic, but he isn t exactly an expert on the art of the apology. and why people are calling congresswoman amy klobuchar trump s worst nightmare.
laura, i want to start on the supreme court ruling overnight. this had to do with a louisiana law that was set to go into effect. the law requires that doctors have admitting prif lames within 30 miles of an abortion facility. that means that fewer doctors would be available to perform abortions. critics argue there s no medical justification, it just makes it harder to get an abortion. that s the law, the judges put a stay on it going into effect meaning there is no law in louisiana in effect. the larger implication, though, here has everything to do with the chief justice of the united states john roberts. john roberts, who appears to be apparently in the middle of the court now sided with the more liberal justices here. what do you see? i think that analysis is right with the departure of anthony ken dit question was whether roberts was going to be the one that has to step up to be that moderating voice,
we want matthew whitaker to share what he knows. the concern is that he is going to stonewall. he s going to be a private citizen next week so it seems ridiculous to be conducting an oversight hearing. we have a process we have to follow to compel questions. the bezos blog post is full of hints that there were larger political connections. there s a long alliance between ami, donald trump, david pecker. whether these details add up to a crime is unethical action. chief justice roberts who has been against abortion rights stopped the application of the law for the time being. he s an institutionalist and he ll sometimes vote to upheld press zblents it will be interesting to see how this plays out. announcer: this is new day with alisyn camerota and john berman. good morning and welcome to your new day. alisyn is off. erica hill joins me this morning for a busy morning. it s a rather busy friday. we have some major breaking news for you about the courts,
especially now with the addition of gorsuch and kavanaugh trump appointees. the issue is whether roberts wanted to step in and try to be that moderating force for the rest of the core. and it looks like in this case and at least in the asylum ban case we ve now seen two key decision where s roberts has sided with the more progressive liberal members of the court. that s not to say that roberts has turned into a flaming liberal overnight. i don t think that we can say that. but conservatives have already had it out for him from days or weeks or months earlier and they have been being looking at how he has had this sort of war of words with president trump. we remember when trump came after so-called obama judges and roberts hit back. an unusual move and said there aren t obama judges, there aren t trump judges, there are just justices trying to do their job. so it will be interesting to see how this plays out for roberts where are you know how he ruled on the affordable care act has bee
