see how those down ballot races impact national policy in a really important way. it is actually going to be those state and local prosecutors, who determine what counts as an abortion, whether someone has had a miscarriage, or whether someone to be prosecuted for having an unlawful abortion and some of these places. and so, just as we are now more attentive to the role that the supreme court can play in our lives, and we are more attentive to that role at the gerrymandered state legislatures can play, we also have to be attendant to what the state and local races mean for us, because all politics is local, and we are really seeing the effect of that right now. again, as we mentioned earlier, some 27 candidates are election deniers, and they are running for these offices. that could have severe implications on our democracy. michael, before we go, i gotta ask you about president biden s 2024 reelection campaign. reportedly, president biden s top aides have been quietly building in 20
with me now to break it all down. melissa, i ll start with you. the significance of this tentative rail deal for workers and for democrats right now. your thoughts? i mean, it s a really important moment, certainly, for the president, it s a major win. it also, i, think it s a major win for organized labor in the united states, which really took a beating under the trump administration, certainly, under this conservative supreme court. this again shows the power of unions and unions organizing for better work conditions. again, the work conditions that were being thought here were important, sort of the infrastructure, childcare, sick leave policies, all of those things that really matter to american workers, and they were part of the conversation here, maybe suggesting that they should be part of a larger conversation, not just for unionized workers, but for all american workers. michael, the tentative deal happen on the same day that florida s republican governor, ron desantis, s
material that he has apparently turned over to the doj is much of the same subpoena material that he turned over to the january 6th committee. so, it s not clear at this moment, if there will be any new blockbuster revelations. but it does suggest the additional subpoena and the fact that he s complied with it means that he s definitely playing ball. he s not being, as he was with the committee. and this means, if there is more pressure applied, he may actually turn over more material, and may depart from the trump camp, perhaps even turn into a cooperating witness, providing some crucial evidence that would be necessary with the doj to determine, whether more forceful action in the direction of the former president is required. michael, as i mentioned, a lot has changed since we last heard from the committee. axios is reporting that the secret service has provided in the committee with a, quote, significant level of detail from emails, and that includes radio transmissions, microsof
things that really matter to american workers, and they were part of the conversation here, maybe suggesting that they should be part of a larger conversation, not just for unionized workers, but for all american workers. michael, the tentative deal happen on the same day that florida s republican governor, ron desantis, sent that group of migrants to martha s vineyard, as a political stunt, as a file political stunt. how can the white house and the democrats breakthrough to voters, when republicans keep pulling these stacks of stunts? yeah, i mean, it is really kind of a moral argument i think that needs to be made. i mean, governor desantis, really, represents the worst of humanity. and you know, the people of martha s vineyard really represent the best of it. i went down to the border with the first lady to asylum camp during the campaign. and it showed me that elections have real consequences.
right. the race for 2024 begins in earnest. it certainly will, come january. michael la rosa, melissa murray, thank you so much, appreciate your insights this evening. i still have revisiting a so-called racial utopia in new jersey, 30 years after the fatal police shooting of a black teenager. ir it s easy. so you can get an upgrade. change your scenery. and make it shine. so no matter what project your tackling, from refresh to remodel, wayfair s got everything you need to give your home a fresh spin. wayfair you ve got just what i need for people living with h-i-v, keep being you. and ask your doctor about biktarvy. biktarvy is a complete, one-pill, once-a-day treatment used for h-i-v in certain adults. it s not a cure, but with one small pill,
