abortion decision will play a factor. are you going to ask your nominees beforehand how they might vote on roe versus wade? well that s a big one and probably not. they re all saying, you don t do that you shouldn t do that but i m putting conservative people on. i don t think i m going to be so specific. we have lot of people helps us sort out the day s headlines. white house correspondent kelly o donnell. nbc s garrett headache. kelly is in new jersey and garrett in washington, cal perry in texas covering the protests to reunite migrant families. and also with us, kaitlyn burns from real clear politics. kelly, we re going to go to you first following the president in berkeley heights, new jersey. that s where he is spending the weekend. kelly, high on the president s agenda is the supreme court pick. what s the latest on that front? good morning, alex. the president is tweeting about his plans to announce the pick on july 9th. he s here with his family in new
you push that back and say we re going to start it in 2020, two years from now or two years from whenever this deal gets done, right out of the gate you lose 17 million people who are not covered. and that s in part because the individual mandate would go away. that gets some healthy people then stop buying insurance. that cranks the pleem yums up for other people who now can t afford it. so this cbo report paints a pretty bleek picture of something that even the most conservative republicans say won t ever actually happen because by then, they say, they would have a replacement plan in place. now, i think it s fair to question how much credit republicans should get for something that they haven t designed, found the votes for or implemented yet, but republicans would say, yeah, this is bad, but this is the badness of this is the motivation to come up with a really good replacement plan. garrett headache, thank you so much for hooking back up for us so quickly, sir. appreciate it.

protest a controversial free speech rally by right wing groups and authorities there they re wrapping up the intense security presence they had today. the operation that was to keep everybody safe, the protestors and the right wing speakers raised a lot of concern about things, and any potential violence. hundreds of police were on hand to secure this event, and there were some minor skir mishz, no major incidences to report. nbc s garrett headache. we still see a minor police presence behind you, but have they been able to get everybody to go home? reporter: well, thomas, they haven t, and that s the problem here. i mean, when we last spoke 25 minutes ago i thought that maybe the violent part of the day was over for today, but now i m not so sure. the police have staged around the outside of boston common. you can see some of the officers, a few dozen of them lined up here. beyond them there are programs a few dozen more in riot protection equipment. they have been dealing with sm
senate stampeding towards a do or die vote, and they re still split on how exactly to do it. and any moment now we are expecting brand-new numbers from the congressional budget office on what would happen under the gop plan to repeal obamacare now, two years, and replace it later. and joining me now from capitol hill is ms nbc s garrett headache. garrett, what is next? reporter: katy, that s a great question. look, what we know is next is that we re going to get these numbers tonight on the repeal and delay plan. and we know they re going to be bad. the cbo scored a very similar bill a couple of years ago, found more than 30 million people losing insurance and a lot of them lose it like that, right away, because of the way this bill is structured. once the repeal part starts down the line you see these sort of insurance markets just kind of droi up. so that s not going to be pretty. we know also that mitch mcconnell is absolutely committed to getting some kind of bill on the floor an
