Citing the source tonight. She blasted donald trump is unhinged, unstable in total chaos. But after publicly refusing to kiss the ring, Donald Trumps ring nikki haley says, shell vote for him in november. Republican senator ted cruz is here on the state of the 2024 race. Also, another flag would links to january 6. Another house. But its the same Supreme Court justice thats under fire. For tonight. New reporting on what was seen. Justice alitos home that has critics calling for him to recuse himself also, tonights senator Bernie Sanders joins us. This on his break right now underway with the white house and even Top Democrats im kaitlin collins. And this is the source nikki haley has not spoken publicly since she suspended her race for the white house more than two months ago. But tonight and her first remarks since that, she made clear who should we voting for in november, given it wont be her name on the ballot trump has not been perfect on these policies. I made that clear many, many times but biden has been a catastrophe so i will be voting for trump in those arguments, haley said that she believes President Biden is a catastrophe. But of course it was not that long ago and voters will remember that she was arguing to republican voters. And really the United States that former President Donald Trump is a quote, disaster on hinged, on fit unstable. The list goes on. He also launched a series of attacks against her during that primary race. Of course, often deriving her as bird brain on the trail though trumps last major rival also said this i feel no need to kiss the ring. I have no fear of trumps retribution haley, of course, made out of kiss the ring, but she has certainly tried it on tonight. Her statement is notable, given trump, of course, was far ahead of her in the polls in that race, but she still was drawing notable swaths of the republican electorate when she dropped out. This is what she said to trump. What he needed to do to win over those voters it is now up to donald trump to earn the votes of those in our party and beyond it, who did not support him and i hope he does that that was on march 6, but it still stands today as we are seeing primaries happen where she is winning sizable portion of voters and indiana and pennsylvania. Donald trump, we should note, is not spent much time trying to court those voters, but he is certainly got her vote as she made clear tonight my lead source tonight is someone else who also once Ran A Bruising primary campaign of his own against donald trump. Texas senator ted cruz is first time youre on the source. Thank you for being here and i want you to be with you to talk to you about the 2024 race and everything thats going on there. But you propose to build this week, youre focusing on ivf in this fight that weve seen play out since what happened in my home state of alabama, this bill would essentially make states ineligible to receive Medicaid Funding if they banned ivf in their State Somebody Look at that and say, why not go one step further and just protect and create a federal protection for ivf access. Well, thats exactly what this bill does. It provides a categorical protection for ivf. And the reason i did it is number one, i strongly support ivf. I ivf is an incredible technology. I mean, i mean, it has its given millions of parents hope who couldnt otherwise have children. This just six are amazing. 2 of all births in america come from ivf. There are over 8 million babies that have been born through ivf and you look at the state of things right now, i think there are a lot of people who are confused and scared that they feel that ivf is in jeopardy. Pretty and following the alabama Supreme Court decision, a lot of people were very worried about that in the senate. To the best of my knowledge, all 100 senators support ivf. Im not aware of a single senator who doesnt and so what happened . I approached kate, katie britts senator from alabama and i said, look, lets team up lets draft a very simple bill that creates strong federal protections that makes clear no state can ban ivf and thats what we did. We made it as a condition of Medicaid Funding. Thats thats a frequent method of imposing a federal restriction on the states its long upheld, but im curious about that because i mean, your home of texas, my home state of alabama. Theyre not seeking tebor expand Medicaid Funding. Its more of a punishment. So its kind of tied to that. So they could still technically ban ivf. They just wouldnt be able to receive Medicaid Funding if they didnt practical matter, no one is going to turn them down. Billions of dollars than medicaid funds. You know, its its a method, for example, its how congress us, Congress Use Highway Funds to get states to raise the drinking age 21. And it was the same thing. It was a condition you dont get your Highway Funds unless you rage raise your the age and they did so. Its how congress you go back in the 70s, use Highway Funds also to lower the speed limit, 2505, they ended up allowing it to raise again but if you look at congressional authority, the Spending Clause as a component of the constitution that congress has unquestioned authority to attach conditions to federal spending. And so we attached it to medicaid. There is no state in the union thats going to turn down massive amount of money for medicaid. And so it operates as a clear federal protection an ironclad protection that no state and no local government and ban it. Yeah. But in alabama, they didnt ban ivf. The Supreme Court just came out there a rule that essentially Embryos Count is children, and that was why you saw theres not that many ivf clinics. A lot of them closed down out of fear of what the legal landscape was there. If there was a federal law protecting access to ivf, that wouldnt have happened well, thats right. And thats why i think we should pass a federal law. And i think its notable when the alabama Supreme Court decision came down that the Alabama Legislature came in very quickly within weeks and pass you dont often see from, you dont often and they move quickly to make clear, ivf has fully protect an alabama and thats true in all 50 states that im not aware. I literally dont know of a State Legislator in any state that wants to ban ivf. But i want to take the fear off the table because people are afraid and i understand and youre right in alabama, following the Supreme Court decisions, the clinics there halted their treatments and thats fundamentally wrong and thats why i said, look, part of it is were seeing a lot a fearmongering. Were seeing people for political reasons that are trying to scare voters and say, ive heard you say that, which is interesting because it held that wasnt what i saw up close. I know these people. It was that they were worried that they were going to be prosecuted if there was a mishap in an accident in a facility like an alabama it wasnt fearmongering out in the media it was people in the state were worried that they would be prosecuted. Well, and let me be clear, the fearmongering is all across the country, but look, i understand why why the ivs clinics that they were uncertain what to do and alabama and they halted temporarily and im really glad the Alabama Legislature came in and said, no, you guys are fine. This is important. I think ivf is incredibly important. And where the fearmongering is happening is in the other 49 states and you have frankly democrats who were fairly cynically trying to scare voters and say the mean republicans want to take away and thats not true. Im glad you brought that up because the reason that premises out there is because of whats happened with abortion and what weve seen happen in states like youre a State Of Texas where almost all abortions are banned. Theres no exceptions for rape or incest in the State Of Texas and they only have a pretty narrow exception if the health and the life of the mother is at risk that didnt apply to kate cox. Everyone knows her story. Did you support that Supreme Court ruling from your state preventing kate cox from getting an abortion. Look what happened to kate cox was horrific and she was a mom who had kids who wanted to have another child and discovered that her unborn child had had a fatal disease that would kill her and her child. And that is a horrific situation as you noted, the texas law has an exception in it for for a birth that would do serious damage to critical Life Functioning of the mind other and what the texas Supreme Court concluded, i think theres a very good argument that she fell under that exception, but what the texas Supreme Court said in its opinion is it asked the Texas Medical Board Go in and set clear rules because the texas Supreme Court said, look, under this law, its doctors that should be making this determine im a nation. It shouldnt be courts, it shouldnt be lawyers. It should do disagree with the ruling i think the texas Supreme Court was right in saying that the texas medical board should set the rules and listen. Theres a big difference between abortion in medical board doesnt make the law. I mean, well, but it gives clarifies the standards and the texas Supreme Court unanimously called on the medical board to clarify the standards because doctors were uncertain and that feels like its deflecting from the lawmakers in the state to the doctors to have to decide well, no, its actually empowering the doctors because theres a medical board there for a reason and listen, theres an enormous difference between Abortion Ivf On abortion. Abortion is an issue that people are hotly divided, that theres a real division of opinion. And people have good faith, can disagree on that and can disagree passionately and emotionally and what the Supreme Court said in returning this to the states is under our constitution, the way we resolve issues that there are strong disagreements is through the electoral process and what that means is the voters in texas decide the texas law. You believe its a state issue for abortion . Or for ivf. But not for abortion. I think what the court has said is abortion as an issue the states can decide because texas is not adopt very different laws, then new york, and of course, they should ivf is different because the overwhelming majority of americans strongly support ivf at 84 of americans want to protect, you know, a lot of americans support Abortion Rights as well. It will see, of course the political, how that plays out november, but i do want to ask you about the Supreme Court clerk today. Our Supreme CourtJustice Alito has been in the news for what happened recently where he was flying an Upside Down Flag at his home. He says it was his wife who did it. But of course it was right after january 6. That was a symbol of stop the steal. Do you think that was inappropriate . Look, i think this entire hoopla is greatly overstated and i think there is a concerted effort that is driven by democrats in the senate to, try to delegitimize the court and to try to demonize were seeing it with Justice Clarence thomas. Were seeing it with Justice Samuel alito. I think the whole thing is disgraced. School in my view, sam alito is an extraordinary justice. Clarence thomas is an extraordinary justice. I know both of them very, very well. And this has been if you look at from the far left the court is the one institution that they do not control. And we saw we saw Chuck Schumer go to the steps of the Supreme Court and threatened the justices and say if you did not vote the way i want you to vote in the dobbs decision, he said you will unleash the whirlwind and he threatened them by name on the flag itself are you okay with him flying an upsidedown flag outside his home . Well, listen, Justice Alitos explanation is that his wife but he had a neighbor in maryland who was apparently a vicious partisan who had a sign in his front yard that said f donald trump, which is pretty nasty in a neighborhood. The neighborhood is not a Supreme Court justice no, but the neighbor also screamed and cursed at Justice Alitos wife, and apparently called her the seaward, which im sorry, is repulsive listen there are justices i disagree with and yet you should treat everyone with civility and respect and what Justice Alito said as his wife was upset. And lets be honest, if you had Neighbor Screaming and cursing, i think they really disputes probably a lot of people watching can understand stan that, but he is sitting Supreme Court justice and theyre about to make key decisions about january 6. Two of them, theyre related to that. Do not worry that it undercuts his credibility as justice when he does Something Like this. Number one, he said he didnt have anything to do with it, that it was his wife who did it but number two, this is all about trying to delegitimize the court the democrats almost every democrat in the senate, if they win they want to pack the Supreme Court. They want to grow the Supreme Court from nine justices to 13 justices. The reason they want to do that is they want to add four leftwing justices immediately. And i got to say it is unfortunate, you, President Biden, of course, doesnt agree with that. I girl, he said he does not know. He he has said he would support packing the court he did not resist that. They would have to get rid of the filibuster. I mean, thats thats not going to happen. Well, and ill tell you what if the Democrats Gain one seat in the senate Chuck Schumer as 49 votes to end the filibuster if he got one more, he would end the filibuster and they would pack the court. I want to talk about whats happening in the senate. We have a lot more questions thats where you asserted jokers, i feel stick around.
