court. so, senator, you mentioned congress, speaker pelosi says the house will vote to codify abortion protections into law. but you know better than i do there aren t 60 votes for that in the u.s. senate. so realistically, what can you and your fellow democrats do? or is the texas law going to be allowed to stand? well, first of all, i m glad speaker pelosi is showing that leadership to get this through the house immediately. basically codify, or to put roe v. wade into law. in the u.s. senate, first of all, there are some pro-choice republicans. i want to make that clear. we ve seen that time and time again in votes. but enough to get to 60? no. senator collin, senator murkowski. my solution to this, which is my solution for voting rights and so many other things, including climate change, where one side of the country is in flames, the other side of the country is flooded with people dying submerged in their cars.
cleared out shelves, they got sandbags, they hunkered down and the streets last night, i took a walk around to get some air, and they were clear. you know, and i m looking at that right now. we ve had no law enforcement issues, we ve had no problems. it s pretty quiet down here right now and that tells me that people are just riding this out and we re going to get through this together. mike: for new orleans residents who left, collin, do you want to ask them to be patient, to be cautious in terms of coming back? i think it s really important two things. one, patience in coming back for those that evacuated and we ve been through this before and we know they can always text nolaready to 77295. and from anywhere in the country they ll get our alerts which is a great thing and then for those that are here, i want to say cautious, cautiously be patient. please. because we re at a point right now where it s not safe for emergency crews to come to you,
winds, significant damage is possible. please be ready to stay in place in a secure structure until the storm has passed. please remember that emergency personnel will not be able to safely respond during the storm s impact. again, i m imploring you to take this storm seriously. finish your preparations today, be where you need to be by midnight. stay connected to us texting to nola ready, follow us at nola ready. i think we have ramsey green with us. thank you. thank you so much, mayor. thank you, collin. i just want to speak very briefly about resilience, and i think about this a lot, given what tomorrow represents to this city, to our residents, and to this country as a whole.
face of collin all red who said what would happen and kabul fell and it was pompeo who said i m directing it. you re talking to the person and that s not going to happen. we ll brief you. it was pompeo that refused to include turning over al qaeda as liz cheney mentioned. it was pompeo and the trump administration that sand bagged the state department to help get some of these afghan allies out through that special immigrant visa program. there s an 18,000 person backlog because it was that administration that gutted the state department and had no interest in keeping america s promise to these people, these brave afghans that helped us there. that was them. the absolute, unmitigated gall of kevin mccarthy to try to lump voting rights which republicans are trying to suppress throughout this country is unspeakable and shameful. we should continue to call them
doctor, collin thank you for joining me this, evening who exactly are the people eligible for these third shots? doctor wilenski from the cdc mentioned people with organ transplants, cancer patients, how specific, how clearly delineated is this group? there is a meeting tomorrow of the advisory committee on immunization practices that cdc runs, and they may get more specific that way. but you name to the right group, people with organ transplants, people with cancer taking chemotherapy that suppresses their immune response, and some people with auto immune diseases, basically people whose immune systems have been tamp down by their illness or their transplant that the vaccine doesn t generate a very vigorous response. and a third dose, if you had moderna or pfizer and you had those first, you might, and maybe as has half of those people, push them back to a protective zone. so everybody agrees, it s time to make that possible. but it s only about 3% of the population, these are not j
