ranting about his personal grievances. cnn's kristen holmes has more do we have to take this this beautiful place and we have to make it really something very special again, right now, it's not special. >> former president donald trump returning to capitol hill as the presumptive republican presidential nominee, and a convicted felon. this is an outstanding group of people. >> i'm with them 1,000% there was me, 1,000% hoping to rally congressional republicans and streamline the messaging ahead of the presidential election. house republican leadership on surprisingly, giving the meeting positive reviews morning we just concluded a very successful special political conference. with our special guest president donald j. trump. we are at 100% unified behind his candidacy. the trump team said his meetings were expected to focus on policy, but sources inside the house meeting told cnn at trump tore through a list of complaints lamenting about his legal woes, calling the justice department, quote, dirty, no-go. >> good wondering about taylor swift endorsement of president joe biden, quote, why would she endorse this dope calling milwaukee the site of the upcoming republican convention quote, horrible a comment allies said was in reference to crime in the city. but republican said, trump did also talk about some policy offering guidance it's on how republicans should discuss abortion rights. >> he said, make sure that you exercise your own conscience to talk about it and share your conviction and do that in a way that makes sense to people. i think he had made a good point. he has said that after the dobbs decision that the states are handling the issue right now now and that's where he's comfortable keeping it. >> i'm trump addressed intraparty politics after a year of infighting over the speakership, he saw me in there and he was like, hello marjorie, he's always so sweet and recognizes me and he said, are you being nice? he was joking or really nice as speaker johnson. and i said and he said, okay, be nice to him and i'm not in my head after the meeting with house allies, trunk moved on to the national republican senatorial committee for another closed doors for meeting everybody here, you're all either elected or you're going to be elected again and reelected and with every one of you and you know that i had a trump's return to capitol hill, the biden campaign, releasing a new television ad seeking to remind voters about trump's role leading up to the january sixth attack on the us capitol. >> there is nothing more sacred than our democracy, but donald trump, ready to burn it all down now will feel notice that we had far less information coming out of that senate meeting. >> that is because those republican senators are a lot less shati then the house republicans. but i do want to point to one of the most notable moment which was caught on camera of this meeting. it is in this photo here, mitch mcconnell shaking hands ends with donald trump, this was the first time the two of them have spoken since january 6, sense that election of joe biden was certified and mitch mcconnell congratulate later it president joe biden, despite the fact that mitch mcconnell had endorsed donald trump, the two still had yet to have a conversation. clearly here though a handshake later sir mcconnell saying that the entire meeting was entirely positive, wolf just the arctic. >> kristen holmes. thank you very much for that report. let's break all this down with our political experts right now and david chelyan, let me start with you. you saw that picture of mitch mcconnell and donald trump today shaking hands after both of them over the past few years, we're blasting each other repeatedly. what do you make of this? >> well, first, godless doug mills, the photographer from the new york times, who just as documented, so many historic moments. >> but i think he captured here an amazing depiction to me this encapsulates the modern day today republican party, because we know what mitch mcconnell stood on the floor of the senate and said about donald trump's culpability in responsibility as it related to january 6 than that, the justice system would catch up to him when he made the decision that he was not going to support conviction and impeachment at the time. we know they haven't spoken since december of 2020 when mitch mcconnell believed donald trump's behavior was out of bounds. and yet there he is shaking his hand because this is what today was all about for donald trump's showing unification of the republican party behind the presumptive nominee. and you don't get that more accurately than seeing the leader of the senate republicans joined forces well and don't forget what donald trump said about mitch mcconnell's wife. yeah, using a racial epithet. and here they are. and if you look at the picture with donald trump it's two hands. it's a two-hand class, which is unusually warm. i mean, we know this isn't, i mean, honestly, it's not real. it's just something that mitch mcconnell has to do. i think that's part of what david to what you're saying with regard to yes. that is the republican party behind the scenes. i can't stand the guy. but if for cameras in front of us, i'm going to we're going to smile for the cameras. we're going to shake hands and take a picture because he is the head of the republican party and i'm terrified of what his voters might do to me in my caucus should we not sure my goal i want to play for you and our viewers. >> what mitch mcconnell said after the january 6 riot about donald trump. listen to this there's no question. none their president trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day no question about it the people who stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their president so how does mitch mcconnell, the minority leader in the senate, go from saying that to all of a sudden shaking hands, smiling and being so friendly with trump i think this will count on me be, may go down in history as one of the most successful republican politicians ever in terms of what he has been able to do. in the united they said it for republicans and the conservative agenda and a lot of people vilify him. they don't particularly care for him. but there aren't too many republican leaders who have surgically laid out a road block, if you will, for republicans to follow to gain an access power. and if you're thinking about that, and the electoral context and you recognize that former president trump, maybe the vehicle hello, to continue moving forward with that agenda, whether you liked him or not, you're going to do what as politically expedient. i think this was a smart move for the former president to showcase at the part is cool well less than around him, particularly on the hills of many questions about nikki haley voters. i think the question ultimately becomes though, what does that policy backdrop look? like headed into the thing we know there is no policy backdrop. >> we've heard some of the reports that basically he went to grievance. he taught. right. and his request was find a way to get these charges reverse, right? that's the agenda that he's interested in. and to share michael's point, i think there are many in the republican party who question whether or not the party has been losing as they've been following down trump in the last several election cycles, many of the candidates that he's endorsed have lost since i can go number of people in there publican party very concerned about the kinds of candidates that he will back and whether or not there'll be viable. and the last thing i'll just say about mitch mcconnell, what a coward, what it absolute coward he had the courage to stand up for the united states of america. the rule of law and our democracy immediately following what happened on capitol hill. and yet here we are just a short time later and he's cow towering to dallas david. i want to play for you and for our viewers some of trump's attacks against mitch mcconnell over these past few years. listen to this mitch mcconnell is a loser. >> we do have to do something about mitch mcconnell. he's a disaster these washington republicans like mitch mcconnell has the absolute worst. i had a fight to mitch mcconnell and other beauty. >> mitch mcconnell and his wife, coco chao. coco we gotta get the mcconnell's of the world to do their job and there's loria was referencing before about the racist comments about his wife, but to karen's point, you played that clip with mitch mcconnell on the senate floor what was he doing on the senate floor that day? >> that was his speech. i don't want our viewers to be confused. that was his speech explaining why he did not believe donald trump should be convicted in an impeachment trial, right? why he shouldn't be ruled out of control? tension going forward to serve as president again, mitch mcconnell could have made a different choice at that point. he believed because donald trump had already left office, that was his reasoning for why they didn't pursue that. and yet he gave voice to all this concern that he said is out there. and clearly what you see in this handshake to share michael's point is that concern? turn is secondary now to the need for political unity and political power in all contexts, we also said that the courts ought to take care of donald trump? he did that. it shouldn't be impeachment on the floor of the senate. and i didn't hear him applauding the felony convictions either. look, i think you look at mitch mcconnell. he's the ultimate pragmatist he believes he has a job to do. and the one job he has right now before he retires is get the majority back in the senate. that is that is singularly what he is devoted to. and i believe he would give would have given him a bear hug if he couldn't and he's on the cusp of that. and public is also raising a lot of money right now, will for some of those senate candidates. >> but there are a lot of republicans by the way, in the senate who did not go to this that's right. >> i don't have a lot okay everybody. thank you very, very much. we're also following another major major decision from the united states supreme court today, the nine justices unanimously ruling are widely used abortion medication is repeat, is allowed to remain on the market, are chief legal affairs correspondent paula reid is joining us with details right now. polo walk us through this ruling and what it means well, if a unanimous decision from the supreme court auto bortion is virtually the on know heard of. >> but here are the justices collectively decided to sidestep the question before them, which is whether the fda had exceeded its regulatory well regulatory authority in making mifepristone more broadly available. but here, the lot of folks were watching this very closely, not only women who would potentially need in this medication, but also the fda. i mean, this could have really challenged their regulatory abilities. the pharmaceutical industry also watching very closely, as well as anyone running for office in 2024. now, because they sidestep this issue, they did not actually decided it's possible, even likely that it will reappear on the dock get in the coming years and in the interim, here's what justice kavanaugh suggested for people who have concerns about mifepristone, he said, quote, citizens and doctors who object to what the law allows others to do may always take their concerns to the executive or legislative branches and seek greater regulatory or legislative restrictions on certain activities. so he's basically saying if you have an issue of mifepristone and you don't have standing to bring it the case, call your congressmen now. right now, all eyes will be on another abortion case before the justices. and that case comes out idaho and raises quite questions about what you do in a state that has restrictive abortion laws. and they come up against more permissive federal laws that will now likely take on even more significance depending on what the justices decide. hi to do. >> paula reid reporting for us. thank you, paula. just ahead, president biden, signing a truly historic security deal with ukraine today will last ukraine's ambassador to the united states about why its future may be in doubt. plus reiki news coming in on a us supreme court justice clarence thomas, you have new
