holiday. ahead of the 40th anniversary. the president s powerful call for action, what he calls an inflection point for the nation. plus, dr. king s granddaughter will join me here in person. i will ask about carrying forward the legacy of dr. king, and the important work she s doing for her generation. i am symone sanders-townsend, i have something to say. history has thrust something upon me from which i cannot turn away. that is what the reverend dr. martin luther king junior told jet magazine as he left for atlanta georgia to become a co-pastor of ebenezer baptist church and lead a movement that would change the world. a day before the nation celebrates dr. king s legacy, history was made of ebenezer once again when president joe biden bemeand the 107 years of a ship. alongside the current pastor and georgia s first black senator raphael warnock, president biden had this to say. this is a time of choosing. for the choices we have. are we people who would choose democrac

capitol. republicans liz cheney and adam kinzinger who sit on the committee investigating the insurrection have voted to approve the resolution. meadows has defied a subpoena to testify before the panel, citing executive privilege provided by president trump, but his lawyer says he has not stopped cooperating with the committee. with me now is ana palmer, founder of punchbowl news and an msnbc contributor. ana, great seeing you this morning. we re learned a lot this week from what meadows has already handed over to the committee. what do we know about the committee s work and how things stand with the white house on this investigation? reporter: yeah, i mean, clearly, we are getting a mind s eye into what they are looking into. while meadows has refused to testify, he has turned over a lot of documents. there s text messages that came up this week. they re clearly right to probe who knew what when and who was in communication with the trump white house. the fact that they did, you
reproductive rights advocates and others that because of restrictive laws across the country, the supreme court, which is conservative could lead to that. she chose to have an abortion before the roe decision. she went to a back alley clinic in mexico. it was hard for her to share her story. at the same time shes with doing it because she didn t want women to experience what she experienced then. they re discussing it to push the policy conversation. they hope it can make a difference. they hope it this will cause a policy change. that s exactly right. i even asked congressman cori bush about republicans who sit on the committee who she s going testify in front of who have
