known for this moment, supported rittenhouse in person at the courthouse this month. all the while a group printing. but using him as a rallying cry. it s not kyle rittenhouse they re after. their end game is to strip away the constitutional right of all citizens. still ahead tonight, one day after he was censured house minority leader kevin mccarthy promises to reward congressman paul gosar if republicans win back the house. you ll hear his pledge and reaction from the congresswoman gosar showed himself killing in that now infamous video, next.
to slow-walk their client s contempt of congress case through the process, perhaps hoping to run out the clock. and mark meadows who, like bannon, is also defying a subpoena appeared on bannon s podcast, touting the boss as a future house speaker. i would love to see the gavel go from nancy pelosi to donald trump. you re talking about melting down. people would go crazy. that s minority leader kevin mccarthy right now, stoking fresh doubts whether civility can survive in congress. vowing today if republicans take the house, he will reinstate members paul gosar and marjorie taylor greene, or promote them and retribution against democrats. this isn t about threats. it s about holding people accountable. so just to keep it all straight, congressman gosar is the death threat anime guy, and marjorie taylor greene is the qanon curious jewish space laser lady. both have helped turn the body they serve as ugly as it s been since the civil war. still one item tonight provides
himself killing alexandria ocasio-cortez and swinging a sword at joe biden. here s what alexandra ocasio cortez had to say about mccarthy s statement to reverse that punishment. i would love leader mccarthy to shout that from the rooftops. please let him communicate to the entire country that he is deeply supportive of people who are violent towards women and that he is deeply supportive of members and deeply accepting of members who fund raise for neo-nazi organizations and placing them on important on important committees. also tonight in the category of least surprising, ever the former president endorsed congressman gosar making no mention of the controversy calling him, quote, a loyal supporter of our america first agenda. joining us now to try to make sense of it all, good luck with that, cnn chief political analyst gloria borger and senior political analyst kirsten
it s hard to understand. kirsten, what does it say about the party that republicans like gosar and greene have become elevated and yet liz cheney and 13 who voted for the bipartisan infrastructure bill, some of whom are now getting death threats, are shunned and practically ex-communicated? well, it shows you where the seat of power is in this party, and i think that you hear kevin mccarthy saying these things because he is afraid, particularly of marjorie taylor greene, who has made noises about leading a revolt against him. so he is saying this to try to appease her and keep her off of his back, and then thrill the base with owning the libs, which is kind of the basically the mantra of conservatives today, their sort of guiding light. so i think that the thing about this is that obviously, what, you know, what they re doing to aoc is obviously unacceptable.
immigration. every one out of every three coming across the border illegally is other than a mexican many it race. thank you, sir. appreciate your time. want to talk on the other side now. democratic congresswoman from illinois joins us. you re outside the supreme court. you have been quoted as saying this arizona law is, quote, state sanctioned racial profiling and i brought the term up just now to congresswoman gosar. why do you think the state law would do more harm than it does good? number one, let s make it clear the only way you can enforce the arizona law is by saying, well, maybe i don t like their boots. is that a foreigner? the accent of their voice when they answer a question, the color of their skin. maybe their last name. that s the only way you can enforce this law. i mean, there is no way the police department and any one of these localities can enforce immigration law and suspect people of being here undocumented unless they stop,
