Lie about what happened in the 2020 election and look no further than the Cpac Straw Poll for how thats manifesting among this selfselecting conserve this has become a top issue for the party and there is a Reward Structure for lawmaker whose go along with this. If you look into the Straw Poll, many of the people who rank highly on the list, like Ron Desantis and ted cruz, have backed up or not directly condemned this lie about the 2020 election. There is definitely a Reward Structure in this. In terms of trumps Hold On the party, though, you see it from the messaging perspective, especially as hes starting to take much more public posture over the course of these next few weeks and months leading up to the midterm elections this is the message that he is choosing to lead with. A backwards looking message about what happened in 2020, hoping that thats enough Red Meat to actually fire up the base to go vote again in the upcoming midterm elections it may be a different plan than people like the rnc and other republican groups would like to lead with, but undoubtly, trump is the person with the biggest reach and easily the biggest megaphone, still definitely the head of the party. What he says in forums like this one really matter, especially from a messaging form. I want to take a look at that Straw Poll trump just beat Florida Governor Ron Desantis, 70 to 21 in that Straw Poll desantis would hold a comfortable lead over the others if trump did not run Cpac Hasnt always in 2011, he was bued for suggesting Ron Paul was unelectable. This followed reporting from Gabe Sherman that found trump and Ron Desantis on a collision course. What does it say about how thist conference has evolved under Thd Influence of trump . I mean, its always been a conference for the base and the Activist Wing of the Republican Party. Trump hasnt always been the favorite, but t as Activists Ha learned to like him, hes gained popularity at cpac. Whats really important here is we know that in 2024, if trump does not run, Ron Desantis would be the early favorite of the Activist Base of the Republican Party. That is not prophetic for who will get the nomination, but it does tell us about one major wing of the Republican Party and where theyre leaning right now. Yeah, matt, a group at Cpac Is distributing cards with a Sevenpoint Plan for reinstated President Trump in, quote, days not years. The plan involves somehow installing trump as speaker and then Ousting Biden and harris. Id i mean, it is absolutely bananas. I dont need to tell you that. Your sense of how mainstream this Idea Isin within the Republican Party, and what it is going to take to extricate that idea. Well, i think at this point in time, you can replace the c that stands for conservative with crazy because thats what this has become in this. I was thinking the other day, what are conservative Values Today . If this is what it represents, i thought conservative values stood for integrity, honestly, thegr constitution, our democra and all that. This party and the cpac representing the gop today, no longer stands forop any of that. If abraham lincoln, teddy roosevelt, Ike Eisenhower or Ronald Reagan showed up to the meeting today. They would be thoroughly booed at this point in time. Itsin seeped in. Its part of the ecosystem of cpac, part of the ecosystem of the Republican Party. And thats what the fundamental Problem Today in democracy is. We have two Legacy Parties but only one that currently supports democracy as it stands, and is willing to dealst from a place facts. And i think thats what we have to all struggle with in the media and in politics, how do we deal with a political party that ispo no longer honest . I want to drill down on that, matt. Take a listen first to what republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger said today earlier on meet the press. To all of my colleagues in politics, let megu say this to you. You either have to be a zombie for the maga belief system, whatever that is today or tomorrow, it varies every day based on Donald Trumps whims, or actually stand up and tell your constituents the truth. I just wonder, matt, if there is anyone who that message, that perfectly reasonable message, is actually landing with. I mean, an accurate message that supports our democracy if it lands with anyone inr the Republican Party, my guess is its about 10 to 15 of the Republican Party would be receptive to that w message. T not enough to win a primary, not enough to even finish second or third in a primary. Thats the Problem Today. Whatbl Donald Trump is, what Ro Desantis is, what all of the other people that are spreading the lie and doing all the things attacking our democracy, including here where i live in texas, they represent the mainstream part of the Republican Party today. Adam kinzinger is a unicorn in the Republican Party. Ali, Trip Gabriel of The New York Times writesel The Big Question of the 2022 midtermicize how will the suburbs swing. Its arb crucial Voting Bloc th soured on Trump In 2020. We talked about how the suburbs are changing demographically. Do you get a sense that any of their messaging is tailored to that suburban audience . No, because its very similar messaging to what former president Donald Trumpha used throughout the 2020es election. And he ended up with lower margins in the suburbs than Joe Biden did. Thats a key part of the biden coalition, and that piece in the times today was really apt. Clearly, former trump read it because he released a statement about it. Really, it presents the Balancing Act for both of these parties here. Democrats trying to show what they can do with power, not just having power in the White House, but also in both houses of congress. Republicans, i think, taking the opposite approach, on a national level, conferences like these that set the messaging tone, theyre clearly digging in to the Red Meat thats not the substance that parts of the party would prefer them toat fos on. Things like the border and jobs. Thats not the focus necessarily here. People walking out of this room and rooms like it come away talking about Ake Rigged Electi in 2020 thatri didnt actually happen. Whats happening, though, on State Level legislatures and this is where republicans i think are going to start pointing to whats happening across the states of proof of what they can do if theyre given power again in the midterms is looking at State Legislatures passing things like critical Race Theory bans or trying to in this special session. Restrictive Voting Bills happening in places like texas, florida, georgia. Those are the places where republicans have to look for the incubators of what republicans can do if they have power because on a national level, on a messaging level, a lot of it is backwards looking while democrats are trying to show, hey, we have power right now. We will actually get things done. Of course, if this is why the Infrastructure Push is so important, because it could prove that bipartisanship still exists in washington, or it could prove that democrats dont know what to do with power while they have it. Ey daniel, Colorado Congressm Lauren boebert said were here to Thel Theo government, We Dot want your benefits, we dont want your welfare. That is fresh given that she receives ppP Loans for her restaurant. Aoc snapped back on twitter. Tell them loud and proud. Gop will strip your Unemployment Benefits and disassemble any Safety Net we have left. How unhinged has this modern gop come from reality . And from understanding what it is that the majority of americans say they actually want from government . Well, Congresswoman Boebert is one of the members of the Republican Party who is always looking to rev up the base and is always looking to endear herself to the more radical ideas and proposals of the gop. So im not super surprised that she would say something like this. Evenli if she benefitted from P Loan not so long ago, but its definitely the sentiment of where the base of Thehe Republin Party is right now. You will find any big Standard Bearer for the gop making those same arguments. Yeah. Very little surprises us these days, if were being honest. Matt, i just gotta ask you, how significant is this that all of this is happening in texas . These are the two big stories today. We look at cpac as what this means for thec future of the Republican Party. And we look at what is happening in texas as a test for what is happening to our democracy writ large. I think its pivotal that its happening in texas because i think ultimately, texas is going to determine the nature of politics in our country for the next ten years or the next 20 years in this. Republicans understand that if Democrats Vote according to what they represent in the population in texas, they win. Thats exactly why theyre doing the voting restrictions. Republicansic see exactly what democrats see in texas. I think they both understand whoever ultimately comes out of this fightte in the next Electi And Election after that is going to determine a lot of where the country goes, and texas is, i think, the Center Point of that. Texas has some ofth the fastest growing demographic groups. Gr its not just latinos. Its asianamericans, a whole realm of things. The wall theyre really building in texas is a wall to keep people from voting. Ali, matthew, daniel, a reminder.

Across the country this week, a possible Turning Point in the battle over Voting Rights. Overnight, Texas Republicans advance a restrictive Voting Bill that would crack down on the Mailin Ballot Process and Ban Drivethrough Voting options. The bill could reach a vote by tuesday. Which is the same Day President biden will head to philadelphia. The birthplace of our constitution, to deliver a speech on the importance of protecting Voting Rights. As the president faces mounting pressure from his own party to use his Bully Pulpit to protect ballot access, congress returns from recess this week. Senators are focused on another aspect of the biden agenda, a deal on infrastructure. The need for solutions on both is urgent. Critical, so how can the White House deliver on both . Joining us now, tyler page, white House Reporter for the Washington Post, and Wall Street Journal Politics Reporter eliza collins. I want it turn to infrastructure. This morning, the Wall Street Journal reported, quote, democrats are racing to finalize a bipartisan Infrastructure Deal and set the contours of a broad Child Care and education plan aiming to maintain a delicate agreement with republicans while simultaneously plowing forward with their own priorities. Democrats remain divided over the Size And Scope of the other broader bill. Liberals such as Bernie Sanders have called for as much as 6 Trillion in spending in the package while moderates have favored a smaller number. Eliza, what are you hearing from Folks On The Hill about how this is going to go down . This is a very unique situation because democrats are basically trying to do two things at once. They are trying to satisfy the moderates in their party who have expressed concern about moving forward without republican support. So theyre working on this bipartisan infrastructure. At the same time, theyre working on this larger package, trillions of dollars, that is things like not the physical infrastructure that that bipartisan plan is talking about, but Child Care sxejication and things that democrats say are a larger infrastructure package. So theyre trying to do both at once. And its going to be very difficult because they cant alienate really either side of their party. Theyre trying to satisfy the moderates with the fisone, but they need the moderates to stay onboard for the party line package. They also cant have the bipartisan package go too far towards the center because they could lose the left party. The left of their party. They really have quite a Balancing Act, and some progressives say theyll only support the bipartisan package if they get a promise that both will move at the same time, which is very difficult to do. Tyler, eliza just did an incredibly succinct job of laying out something that is incredibly complicated politically. Tell me where republicans come into play here. Republicans are crucial to this effort to pass a bipartisan deal. They have the agreement on the framework, but over the recess and into the next few weeks, they now need to draft that legislation in a way that expliicates the broad overview that they agreed to with the president , and so theres not a lot of Wiggle Room there with republicans in terms of insuring that they get the support they need to reach that 60vote threshold. They need ten republicans and they seemingly have that at the moment. Once you get into the details, thats where theres more room and hurdles and potentially difficulties getting there. As they hash out these details, thats where the republicans and democrats are working together, and any source of disagreement could potentially thwart that bill from passing. Tyler, this is all happening at the same time theres this focus on Voting Rights. You have civil rights leaders who want the president to focus even more on the issue. What are you watching for during president Bidens Speech on Voting Rights on tuesday . Yeah, i think the big thing is whats new . Hes been talking about this issue for weeks, for months. You know, this is a defining issue for democrats. And he continues to make big speeches about it, and emphasize it, but theres not much that he can do in terms of actual changes. He has criticized republicanled efforts to restrict the right to vote. Im sure well hear him talk about what the latest developments in texas as they try to pass their own version of a bill we have seen in other republicanled states. But at the same time, theres not much that biden can do beyond calling for the abolition of the filibuster. He has not gone that far yet. In this speech, what im looking for is whether or not the president is going to escalate his rhetoric about how democrats should respond to these republicanled efforts to really restrict the right to vote, which democrats see as an existential threat to democracy and to Peoples Ability to exercise their rights. So eliza, yesterday, i talked with representative Ayanna Pressley on congressman clyburns push for a Voting Rights carveout. Take a listen to what she said. Alicia, no democrat should support a Jim Crow filibuster. Why stop at a carveout . We should be eliminating and abolishing the filibuster outright. Congresswoman, to that point, i want to ask you, what do you think it would get to get Manchin And Sinema to move on this . Pressure from the White House. You heard it right there, pressure from the White House. Congressman clyburn says he doesnt care if president biden uses a microphone or a telephone to ramp up pressure on manchin. How much longer can president biden Hold On, and do you think on tuesday he uses that opportunity to call these senators out by name . Well, to tylers point, the President Hasnt endorsed getting rid of the filibuster. So he can increase pressure on democrats to take this seriously, to unite, but theyre pretty much united right now, it requires 60 votes for something to pass, and they do not have that. And so until Joe Biden endorses getting rid of the filibuster, its going to be very difficult for anything to happen. And there are Joe Manchin and Kirsten Cinema are certainly the most vocal about keeping the filibuster in place, but there are other senators who would like to see It Stay in place, at least right now. Most of them have endorsed reforms which is Something President biden has as well, but right now, theres a larger group than senators Manchin And Sinema who oppose getting rid of the filibuster. I take that point, but tyler, the filibuster debate, we talked about it a lot in the context of Voting Rights for very good reason that is in focus right now, but of course, the implications of the filibuster go far beyond Voting Rights. You have new nbc reporting that digs into areas of Bidens Agenda that have been stalled. A 15 Minimum Wage, beefing up lgbtq protections, immigration, gun safety. If and when the White House scores a win on infrastructure, which legislative victories, what do they look like with the filibuster in place right now . Youre exactly right. That is something that i think a lot of people are losing sight of. There is that opportunity on Voting Rights, that missed opportunity on Voting Rights because of the filibuster, but it doesnt stop there. So much of the democratic agenda requires 60 votes. As you referenced the parliamentarian in the Stimulus Package a few month ago, they tried to raise the Minimum Wage there and were ruled ineligible to do so. So theres so much that democrats want to do. They have this narrow window in which they control the house, the senate, and the White House. And that could change in the midterms. So i think as they move forward with this infrastructure, were going to continue to see calls from progressive democrats, even from some more moderate democrats to try to move on this filibuster issue. But Joe Biden himself, the leader of the party, has not explicitly called for action on it. So i think until we see the president make some movement on that, its going to be hard to get the rest of the party to come along. Tyler and eliza, thank you both so much.

Priscilla thompson spoke with the Boards Chairwoman to find out why different perspectives on racism were fireable offenses. I actually attended my first Pta Meeting in this very room.

Dont teach our Kids Guilt for their failings. Over the past several weeks, sheraton says shes received nearly a dozen letters at her home, hundreds of emails daily. And voice mails like these.

It would be inappropriate because its theory based in Master Level and doctoral levels. Were talking about our students experiences. Were focusing on making our marginalized students feel welcomed and affirmed. Still, many parents in the northern Virginia County are now rallying against what they say is critical Race Theory. And thats not all. A School Board Meeting where new State Mandated Policies for transgender students was being discussed descended into chaos, resulting in one arrest. This is an unlawful arrest. I am a first Amendment Right i have never been afraid to be in my community. I have never thought twice about going anywhere in louden or anywhere in my community. And i stop and think twice now. Across the country, similar stories are emerging amid anger over mask wearing, critical Race Theory, Transgender Rights, and more. Theyre teaching our kids to be racist. As sheraton continues to bear the brunt of the harassment in louden, she says she wont back down, even as she faces a recall effort. The work were doing is important.

A moment of hope amid unthinkable heartbreak in surfside, florida, a cat pulled from the rubble and reunited with its family. Today, day 17 since the partial collapse of the condo building, officials upped the Death Toll to 90. At least 31 people remain unaccounted for. More than 14 Million pounds of Concrete And Debris have been removed from the site for analysis. Today, members of the Israeli Defense Forces are heading home after assisting with efforts. As a thank you, the crew was presented with keys to the county. But The Big Question remains, how could this happen . Florida lawmakers are now debating local policy that allows 40 years to elapse between condominium inspections. As the Washington Post reports, those same regulations are under review by the florida bar association, which has launched a Task Force to strengthen Building Safety measures. Joining me now, the reporter on the byline of that Washington Post story, kim bellware. What is the latest in the investigation into the Condo Collapse . Were hearing a lot more scrutiny thats going on this building, specifically Champlain Towers south. Theres more coming out about what the reserves are, how much money the Condo Association had in the coffers to Fix Maintenance and we know from earlier reports there were a lot of problems that were flagged with maintenance, with the preparation getting that building ready for its 40year recertification. So right now, all of the attention is kind of focusing on what is known from the documents of the years that were leading up to the collapse that all have to do with what was know about safety and what was known about the Condo Associations ability to pay for that. Other surfside condos have been evacuated as officials warn of urgent repairs needed. Why are so many of these buildings at risk . A lot of it has to do with when these buildings were built. The Condo Boom that hit florida in the 80s and 90s are now putting a lot of these buildings that were still being built with Concrete And Rebar versus maybe white aluminum and blue glass in newer buildings, the only ones are now coming of the 40year age where theyre having to be reevaluated to see if theyre still safe, and 40 years is a long time, especially when you look at some of the shifting conditions that are happening both above and below the ground. So its just that when these structures were built, they were really aging into that period where theyre coming under scrutiny, according to the laws that currently exist. What makes updating the States Condo laws such a complicated process . Theres a lot of different interests that go into it. Every expert that i talked to said one of the big things is that florida is the Condo Capital of if not the u. S. Then even the world. People say it rivals whats built in dubai. You know, condos are a huge part of the economy, and its also a really big mix of floridas a really big part of floridas residential housing mix. You have so many condos, so many beachside condos. Not only do you have developers making money off it, you have politicians making money from those developers who are wooing condo boards. You have people who are doing the installation, the contracting, designing. There are so many tentacles of this economy that are tied to condos, and a lot of legal experts i talked to said that can make it a really uphill climb to get some of these changes made because the other side of that equation is you have the actual residents, and in florida, there are a lot of people with fixed income, not everybody is a multimillionaire. Surfside was considered relative to some of the other surrounding areas a slightly more affordable place to own a condo. And so you also have Affordability Questions because if you start putting in new requirements that are really upping what owners have to pay into for maintenance, that can price people out of their homes. This all brings us back to tHe Question of accountability. Champlain towers residents have filed more than a dozen lawsuits. Miamidade county d. A. Said shell convene a grand jury. Who is likely to be held accountable . Its really hard to say at this point because, like you mentioned at the top of the segment, we just dont know what has caused this yet. And the top structural experts that are looking at this, theyre really trying to be patient and say, lets hold off. Lets do the research. But people do want answers now. They want to know kind of where they can point the finger and where they can make some immediate changes. Very likely, youll see some answers that are going to have to come from the Condo Association. But that was also made up of residents, people who were harmed or maybe even killed in this tragedy. So theres just so many different factors to look at right now, but you can definitely expect Condo Associations and anybody who had a hand in evaluating that structure in the years leading up to the disaster.

The cdc, very clear, nearly all recent covid deaths are among those who were not vaccinated. Take a look at this map showing the major uptick in cases over the past two weeks. In states with lower vaccination rates. Missouri is among them, and local leaders and medical professionals tell us theyre doing what they can when they can. I would equate whats happening in my community right now as a Mass Casualty Event thats happening in very slow motion. The Delta Variant is spreading rapidly through our community. Certainly, we have taken aggressive measures to get us to this point, through social distancing and isolations and masking. Theres only so much we can do. Now its an individual responsibility. You know, its sad to see people dying in the hospital for something that could have been prevented. Bottom line, youre saying the solution here is easy. I think it is. Get your vaccine, maintain your distance. Wear a mask. Disinformation plays a major role in stalling vaccination rates. So much so, the fda is being urged to fully approve the vaccines to increase confidence in the safety of the vaccines. Which new Polling Shows might work. A survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation found nearly a third of unvaccinated adults more likely to get vaccinated if the fda fully approves just one of the shots. Dr. Anthony fauci says he gets it. Although its understandable, quite understandable, that some people might say, well, we want to wait for the full approval, thats really only a technical issue. Its the Fda Dotting The is and crossing the ts. But theres No Doubt in my mind that these vaccines are going to get full approval because of the extraordinary amount of positive data. With me now, dr. Blackstock, msnbc medical Contributor And Founder and ceo of advancing health equity. Dr. Blackstock, what impact would it have for the fda to fully endorse any of the covid vaccines . You know, i think it would have a significant impact. I dont know if it will be huge, but we know definitely significant. The Kaiser Family Foundation has been doing an excellent job of surveying the unvaccinated people. And we know for at least a third of them, this will actually move the needle, no pun intended, and encourage them to get vaccinated. Talk to us about the kinds of disinformation that youre seeing out there given the role that disinformation is playing in people choosing not to get vaccinated . Right, and you know, i think that the disinformation that is out there is more widespread and embedded than we realize. There are antivaccine organizations out there both nationally and internationally that are using concerted effort, mostly on social media, to convey this disinformation to people. I shared this story, i was at a fair recently, predominantly black event, and i saw members of an antivaccine national organization there, Dispersing Fly flyers disguised as medical racism to make them suspicious of vaccines. Theyre targeting communities of color and also targeting white rural communities as well. Its very widespread. I think any effort to counteract this Information Cant just come from Public Health agencies. It has to come from the government addressing this and disbanding these organizations. Doctor, we have, of course, been keeping our eye on cpac, listening to some of what is being said there. Im not going to play the sound for you but im going to tell you there have been multiple attacks on dr. Fauci himself, you know, someone saying dont come knocking on my door with your fauci ouchy. Leave us the hell alone. Were in the process of sending a letter to the doj, he lied it congress, and crowds Chanting Lock him up, lock him up. Talk to me how the political rhetoric then reverberates into medical settings. Knee know the pandemic itself has been politicized. Masks have been politicized, and now vaccines, although theyre essentially miracles of science, have also been politicized. What were seeing is this really extreme divide between counties that voted for trump so, the politicization of vaccines is causing harm its actually going to kil and i think people in these communities need to realize that right now the access barriers are being knocked down. The main barriers we have now are overcoming that Misinformation And Disinformation and fixed belief people have, false beliefs, about these vaccines. So, this is all happening, of course, Asis Schools are tryingo figure out what it is going to look like for educator, for support staff, for students to come back through their doors. The cdc is calling for k12 schools to fully reopen in the fall, no f masks needed for the fully vaccinated. California announced theyre going to require masks regardless. What concerns do you foresee here, understanding there are so many pockets of this country with unvaccinated populations. Right. Ci what i will say is cdc is trying to make a statement that school is important for our children. Theyre recognizing the harm that being out of school has caused to students not just educationally, but socioemotionally. They are evidencebased, but they are not necessarily easy to operationalize or equitable. We know there are posits of the countrye that are severely undervaccinated. And we know there are states that have forbidden mask mandates even info schools. I worry in those pockets were going to see increases in cases and hospitalizations as the School Yeario starts.
