The Justice Department asking the Supreme Court to block the restrictive law as the court signals it could hear arguments over the controversial ban faster than expected. Plus, the latest on the race to rescue 17 american missionaries kidnapped in haiti. A ransom demand. Pushback over vaccines. Cops from coast to coast skipping vaccine requirements despite more Police Officers dying from covid over the course of the pandemic than any other cause combined.

We have what you need the know. Well start with the January 6th Committee finally moving ahead with a vote tonight to hold steve bannon in Criminal Contempt for defying his subpoena. It comes as former President Trump turns to one of his favorite tactics to try to hold things up. Hes filed his own lawsuit, suing The Committee and the national archives. Just a few minutes ago, the white house responded to the suit saying, quote, the former president s actions represented a unique and existential threat to our democracy that cannot be swept under the rug. Lets discuss. Joyce vance joins us. Former u. S. Attorney and professor at the university of alabama law school. Also, pulitzer prizewinning reporter who dominates covering the Justice Department for the New York Times. And alltime favorite jarrett garrett haake, senior capitol hill reporter, here with me. This is going to be a process. The house will vote hopefully later this week. Theyll find bannon in Criminal Contempt. Then it goes to the Justice Department, who still have to decide whether this is the kind of thing they want to pursue criminally. Democrats in the house are arguing that they have to do this not just for their investigation, but to prove that congressional subpoenas even mean anything. Listen to this that adam schiff told me last night. I think it is enormously important, and i view this as an early test of our democracy, whether it is recovering. An early test of whether in the new administration no one will be above the law. I can tell you that if you or i or anyone else refused to show up when they were subpoenaed, they would be arrested. It should be no different for steve bannon. We went through this with the last two impeachments with then President Trump and his staffers, his allies, willing to wait out the clock on congress. They could potentially do the same thing here if republicans take control after the midterms next year. So this is a race to get this testimony in now. It should be no different, but it is, joyce. If steve bannon can defy this subpoena and get away with it, why would anyone ever comply . I think thats exactly the point that Congressman Schiff was making last night, stephanie. Weve come to this final low bottom, where there has to be a method of enforcing this subpoena and of showing that trump and the folks around trump are obligated to follow the law. Just like everyone else. If this congressional subpoena isnt enforced, then the mechanism for congress to engage in oversight is irrevicablely broken. If it is the best path forward in the judgment of congress for enforcing their subpoena, doj needs to step up and engage in the process. So at this point, all of the trump loyalists The Committee wants to speak to, are they just going to sit back and see how things shake out with bannon before deciding their next move . Absolutely. I think that would be the best course of action for them, the most logical thing to do. Theyre going to want to see whether or not the Justice Department decides to enforce the subpoena. The other thing is even if the Justice Department were to enforce the subpoena, and lets go through what that means. The committee votes. Justice department receives the information, and then the u. S. Attorney in washington, d. C. , in conjunction with the highest levels of leadership at the Justice Department here in washington, they take the information to a grand jury. I think theres a lot of confusion. Grand juries are part of the court decision, not controlled by the Justice Department. It is up to them to decide whether or not the subpoena should be enforced and there should be criminal charges. Now, should that happen, thatd send a strong message to the people sitting back and waiting. The Justice Department has all sorts of reasons to carefully scrutinize this. Joyces point is taken, we have reached a bottom. Yet the Justice Department doesnt want to make decisions that can affect future administrations. It is thinking about legacy issues with the executive branch. Trumps latest move, one of his favorites, he is now suing The Committee and the national archives. In the lawsuit, it says, quote, The Committees requests are unprecedented in their breadth and scope and are untethered from any legitimate legislative purpose. Whats your reaction to that . Because what happened january 6th is also unprecedented. Trump makes three really pate weak arguments. He argues it is a witch hunt. Congress doesnt is a legitimate purpose in doing the work of the January 6th Committee. He argues this testimony should be shielded by executive privilege. To this point, all of those arguments fall in the face of the need to get to the bottom of what happened on january 6th. In many ways, trump is fortunate that biden chose to waive executive privilege. Otherwise, there would be an ugly argument about whether this sort of information hes trying to withhold can be unshielded pause its part of what lawyers call the crime fraud exception. Whether, in fact, the president , the former president , is trying to cover up crimes. Thats what is at bottom here. Why would a president want to shield this information from public view . Weve undergone an insurrection, an attack on the capitol. The only people who would want to withhold information about what led to that would be people who were concerned about complicity. The more that trump argues and files lawsuits here, even if he means to delay, the more he discloses his ultimate motives. Yes. He might disclose motive, but it doesnt mean well see anything. We didnt see his taxes for a long time, and, guess what, we havent seen it. Makes him look guilty and like he is dishonest, but he is winning. Garrett, trumps goal here appears to be, im going to hold this up like everything else. Is it going to work . Well, members of the Committee Say they expected this. They had no reason to believe that many of the people they subpoenaed would cooperate on their own. But they said theyre still doing interviews with folks who agreed to testify voluntarily, including doj officials who are intimately involved in discussions at the white house in the leadup to january 6th. There are many different paths for this committee to continue to go down while their fight this legal fight. A fight it is. Garrett, katie, joyce, thank you so much. Actually, joyce, stay with me. I want to stay on the law and turn to the abortion fight down in texas. The Justice Department is now all calling on the Supreme Court to step in immediately and block the state law that bans most abortions. Pete Williams Joins us, our justice correspondent. Joyce, you are still here. Pete, talk us through this brief that was filed monday. Second challenge to the texas law to reach the Supreme Court. The court turned away the first one brought by Abortion Providers in texas. The Justice Department says this lawsuit is different. It raises different issues and is much stronger because the government has powers private parties dont. The court turned away the first in september by a vote of 54. The court said it was too complicated. There were questions about whether the court had the authority to hear it, given the unusual structure of sb8. In the latest challenge, the Biden Administration said texas cant take away the right of access to abortion without providing a means to defend that right in court. Unlike every other abortion restriction thats ever come before the Supreme Court, sb8 does not depend on State Officials to enforce it. Anybody can file a public lawsuit against an Abortion Provider and seek at least 10,000. For that reason, the law stopped nearly all abortions in the state. The Justice Department says the state has essentially nullified the Supreme Courts past decisions on abortion rights and has no legal power to do that. I think thats why it is appealing to the Supreme Court, saying dont let the states ignore what you do. Joyce, how strong is the governments case here . Governments case here is very strong. To petes point, the Justice Department can do something the private litigants in the earlier case couldnt do. Doj has the ability to sue the state of texas directly. Thats what theyve done in this lawsuit. That i theyre telling the Supreme Court, you cant let a state violate a law, roe versus wade. You cant let the state of texas circumvent that with tricks saying the state of texas is preventing anyone from going to court to protect their rights. Doj says because we have the unique ability to sue the state of texas, you need to hear our lawsuit. What doj is asking the court to do is to restore the block that would keep sb8, texas abortion law, Stay Ingfrom Staying in ef during litigation. Interesting issue is whether the Supreme Court will view this petition by doj as an effort to join this case, the texas case, with the mississippi Case The Court will hear in december and decide both of those matters together. Pete, theres also a separate appeal to the Supreme Court, and this one is coming from prochoice groups. Can you explain . That was the first lawsuit that was filed here. Its the one that the Supreme Court declined to issue the stay on in september that allowed sb8 to go into effect. Thats sitting on the courts doorstep. Now the Justice Department says it, too, should take this case that the government has filed. Now, the normal way things work is you go into this court. If you lose there, go to the Court Of Appeals. Once the Court Of Appeals rules, you can go to the Supreme Court. What the Justice Department is saying, and what the other group is saying too, is just leapfrog over the fifth Circuit Court of apeas. Appeals. We know itll get there anyway. Lets get on with it and decide this issue this term. It is a different question. It is not really the issue of whether abortion is constitutional. The issue in this case is, can a State Structure a law like this that takes enforcement away from State Officials and essentially turns private individuals into Bounty Hunters . Wow. All right. We are going to be watching this closely. Pete williams, joyce vance, thank you both so much. Still ahead, donald trump just faced some tough questions at a Video Tape Deposition yesterday. Ill be speaking to one of the lawyers in the room about what the former president said when under oath. First, kidnapped in haiti.

The president is set to meet separately at the white house today with moderates and progressives later this afternoon, while senator Kyrsten Sinema is also headed to the white house. It comes after senator joe manchin had a facetoface meeting with House Progressive Caucus Chair pramila jayapal. And this photoop with senator sanders. All of these meetings, all these photos, i want to know what any of this actually means when it comes to getting something passed. I want to go straight to The One And OnlyKristen Welker at the white house. Her first day back from Maternity Leave after welcoming her daughter margot back in june. Kristen, im thrilled youre here. John, im happy that youre here, but not as thrilled as i am that kristen is here. Punch bowl news cofounder, im going to kristen first. Im getting frustrated. We keep hearing about the meetings, the pictures, but is anything actually happening . Any movement . Movement is what matters to voters. Well, first of all, thank you so much for having me and thank you for the warm welcome back. I appreciate it. Its so great to be back on your show. Look, i think what you said at the top is accurate. Theres a lot of talk. Its not clear how much progress there actually has been. What we do know is that there is a sense of urgency. There are more discussions than we have seen before. Its significant that senator manchin is talking to senator sanders. That is not something that we should overlook. As you pointed out, senator sinema will be here at the white house today, as will a group of moderates and progressives. So what are the key sticking points that theyre foe cushion focused on right now . Im told theyre focused on potentially scaling back that key climate provision that was a part of the build back better plan. Now, are progressives going to get on board with that . No one knows, steph. Thats a big question. Theyre even looking at scaling back the Child Tax Credit. Theyre talking about other provisions, like a carbon tax. Will they be able to find middle ground . Will there be an agreement by the october 31st selfimposed deadline by democrats . Thats the question. Ive been talking to officials Behind The Scenes at the white house. One said they are very, very cautiously optimistic, but it is not clear theyre all going to reach an agreement. So will they be able to get something done on these two big proposals, or will they start to look to peel these provisions off and try to pass things piecemeal . Thats the big question here, i think, steph. Okay. John, biden is meeting with moderates and progressivs at the white house but in separate rooms. How ridiculous is that . They cannot even meet in the same room. Can you imagine any scenario in your professional life when you and colleagues who are supposed to be on the same team cant even sit in the same room . No. I mean, its not that bad. Theyre not, you know, ready to kill each other, but, you know, i think your setup was really good. There is a sense of urgency here. You know, congress is getting back. The house not in until tonight when theyre voting. The senate came in yesterday. I mean, democrats have to make progress this week. They really have to get they have to get a Top Line Agreement by october 31st, by then. You really think they have to do it by the beginning of next week. They need to have a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill by october 31st or delay it for a second time, which would be a blow to moderates. Theyd be upset by this. Joe manchin and sinema were in the middle of that package. And then, you know, theyve got to get some kind of traction on the human infrastructure bill, the build back better plan. So, i mean, they have to show some kind of progress this week. The president is doing what he has to do. He needs to get involved. This is bidens agenda. This is the president s agenda. So this is critical for him to be personally involved. Hes the only one who can make this deal happen. Speaker pelosi, Senate Majority leader schumer, they didnt do it. It has to be the president. When we say theyre going to the white house, kristen, is the president himself rolling you his sleeves and meeting with both teams . Teams, i say. Because he is pinning all of his hopes, basically, on getting this done this week. He is going to be in those critical meetings today, steph. Theres no doubt about that. Based on my conversations here, he is also going to be holding urgent phone calls throughout the week, really trying to get some movement on this. And i think youre going to see that personal involvement that yall were just talking about on display when he hits the road. He is going to be in scranton, pennsylvania, tomorrow, talking about the build back better plan. Hell hold a town hall event on thursday. There is so much at stake here. Bidens agenda. Even before that, steph, we are two weeks away from races all across the country, including key gubernatorial races. You havecauliffe, the democratic candidate in virginia, saying, get into a room and get this done. Because if you dont get an agreement, it could hurt chances for elections like Terry Mcauliffes and other democrats across the country. Of course, steph, it could have an impact on the midterms. The steaks could not be higher for this white house as they look to a day of urgent meetings Behind The Scenes. John, what are we to believe . Last week, Bernie Sanders writing an oped in a West Virginia paper, clearly going after joe manchin. But then, i showed it before, we saw that arminarm photo of the two of them together. I dont get it. The thing about joe manchin, whether you love him or hate him, he has been consistent the whole entire time. What he wants and sanders wants are never going to be aligned. You know, it is funny. Thats exactly what we wrote this morning. Manchin, if you followed him, which we do and you guys have done a great job with, you know, hes told everybody where hes at pretty much. You know, he was never going to go for 3. 5 trillion. He is concerned about expanding medicare, which is something that sanders has done or sanders wants to do in terms of vision, dental, and hearing programs. Hes never going to want to spend the kind of money progressives are going to want to spend. But he still wants to spend a lot of money. I mean, youre still talking about several trillion dollars. You know, he wants this Infrastructure Package thats over 1 trillion, and he would do a deal at 1. 5 trillion to 2 trillion probably, depending how it is structured. You can get a lot of stuff in there. Yes, he is not going to be, you know he is not going to give the Child Tax Credit for ten years at the level that they want. Hell want some means testing on that. But, you know, hes there for a deal if they can work hard. Lets remember that. The bipartisan infrastructure bill kind of waiting in the wings, over 1 trillion bucks. Kristen and john, good to see you both. John, you lost the baseball glove. Whered it go . Oh, no. You know, i had to move because i was giving up on the yankees. Theyre not making me happy. Well, its football season. Thank you, both. See you both soon. Programming note, as the notions on the agenda are ramping up, i am in d. C. Why . Not just to see kristen.

New deadlines over Vaccine Mandates are affecting Police Departments. In los angeles, where the deadline is tomorrow, more than 2,600 Police Officers have said theyll seek religious exemptions from the mandate. Just 69 of lapd employees have gotten at least one dose of the vaccine thus far. Three more deadlines also hit yesterday, and as of today, there are a whole lot of people risking their jobs by refuing to comply. In oregon, roughly 15 , or 200 state police employees, have not gotten the vaccine. They could be placed on administrative leave as early as today. Washington state, things look a little better. A few weeks ago, 90 of State Workers had gotten the shot. In baltimore, maryland, the police union has told officers the police union, ill say it again, told officers not to comply with the mandate. A spokesperson said 64 of the departments 3,000 employees have gotten even a single dose. That brings us to the city of chicago. Where the vaccine deadline was last friday but only twothirds of the Police Department reported their vaccination status. Roughly 4,500 Department Employees had not, including about 3,200 officers. Nbcs Meagan Fitzgerald is in chicago right now. And carmen best joins us, retired police chief from seattle and Law Enforcement analyst. Take us to chicago first. What happens to the 3,200 officers . Are they going to be taken off the job . I mean, we certainly need cops on the job in chicago. Reporter yeah, youre absolutely right. I mean, the crime rate here is surging. The answer to your question is yes. The mayor is moving forward with this mandate. Theres a lot of speculation yesterday before her Press Conference on whether or not she would extend the deadline or not enforce it because we are talking about thousands of officers who have not complied. But what we understand right now is there is about 50 officers who have been placed already on unpaid leave. The mayor sort of detailing what this looks like. They are combing through the data to see who didnt comply. Once they find these officers, theyre summoning them to police headquarters, giving them another opportunity to comply with the mandate. If they refuse and are immediately placed on unpaid leave, the president of the Fraternal Order Of Police saying that he believes this will be in the thousands. There will be thousands of officers who will refuse to comply. Steph, we had a chance to speak with some of the folks who are just steadfast in their beliefs. They dont want to be told what to do. They dont want to get the vaccine, and theyre willing to risk their jobs for it. Police officers, its their job to enforce rules, dont want to follow them themselves. Carmen, how do you balance Public Safety and enforcing the mandates at the same time . I mean, you cannot pull thousands of officers off the street and expect it not to impact the city. Good morning, stephanie. Yeah, youre absolutely right. As a former police chief of a major city, having spent almost 30 years in Law Enforcement, it truly saddens me that so many officers are refusing to take the vaccination. Simply because we have had more deaths from covid19 of Law Enforcement officers than gunshots, vehicular accidents, or any other thing. Officers have a responsibility, more so than any others, because of the front line work, to protect the public, protect themselves, protect their families. They wear bulletproof ballistic vests and handguns and other equipment theyre required to have to protect the public. This is one more mechanism to keep the public safe. I have watched officers risk their own lives to protect people in so many circumstances, so it is a bit baffling as to why they didnt want to take this one extra measure to protect the public. That said, we do have to recognize the individual right of the officers, and it puts Police Chiefs between a rock and a hard place. Most agencies with a dwindling police force cant afford to lose 10 of the officers. Baffling. Can you help us understand . Is there something about Police Officers that make them a tough sell for vaccines . If more died from covid than anything else over the last year and a half, why . Why wouldnt they do this . Yeah. It is baffling. But across the board, not only in police agencies, but across the nation, we have so many people who are refusing to get vaccinated. So police are just a, you know, microcosm of the larger society. Im hopeful well come to some resolution, maybe an extension will entice more. Probably there are going to be people who do leave the profession behind this. Extraordinary. Extraordinary. Thank you both for joining us this morning. I appreciate it.

This morning, new questions about whats next after former President Trump wrapped four hours of testimony under oath during a video taped deposition yesterday afternoon. It was part of a case brought by people involved in this protest outside trump tower six years ago, after these photos were taken. Members of trumps team were caught on camera, allegedly assaulting demonstrators as they tried to break things up. Those protesters say trump laid the groundwork for the attack because of his comments about mexican immigrants. Joining me now to discuss, someone who questioned trump yesterday, attorney benjamin dickter. Did the former president say anything that surprised you . First of all, good morning, stephanie. Thank you for having me. Thank you to all the Union Representative and editorial workers at msnbc who make this show happen in the morning. The subject of this trump deposition, like you said, i cant get into. It would be inappropriate at the time because the trial has not happened. This is testimony for trial. I would say that there are, you know, significant matters of interest that were discussed. I dont know whether theyll be interesting for people who are involved in other litigation with mr. Trump or if they are matters that are generally newsworthy. But at some point, the deposition transcript will be public, as will the video. At that time, i suppose folks in the news, Folks Litigating with mr. Trump will be able to determine whether or not those things are relevant or helpful to them. Okay. Broadly speaking, do you think this deposition strengthened your case . Absolutely. Without question. All right. I know it is a much smaller scale, but your case could be relevant to the january 6th investigation. Given that inciting violence is connected on both, do you think questions he answered could then getlinked or be used in the investigation into january 6th . What ill say, stephanie, is that one of the subject matters that is obviously at issue in this case is Donald Trumps incitement of violence, and his incitement of violence among his Security Guards and people who described in statements as fighting for him. So what i would say is that we have evidence that we will present to the jury, and that evidence involves evidence of Donald Trumps incitement of individuals. To the extent there are investigations going on concerning january 6th and whether or not donald trump incited violence on that instance, im obviously not involved in that investigation. I saw your earlier segment concerning the subpoenas in d. C. I dont know how they do subpoenas in d. C. , but in bronx county, you have to honor a subpoena. Thats what happened yesterday. Maybe come to the bronx if you want the subpoenas answered. Do you know when the video and transcript will be released . I cant say with certainty. What i can tell you is that we have a Scheduling Conference later this month in the bronx. At that Scheduling Conference, we expect to address a number of issues, including the next steps procedurally in the case, which would involve pretrial motions and involving things we call motios made before trial. At the time, there would be motions made over which portions of the transcript would be shown to a jury. Once shown to a jury, you know, theyd become public. So at that time, i think you would have a sense of when the transcript or portions of the transcript will be available. Long story short, it sounds like it is going to be a while. A conference about scheduling. Welcome to the bronx county court, stephanie. I cant i mean, that is the most impractical thing ive ever heard. Your case is one of ten civil cases against trump. That is on top of the criminal probe in new york, d. C. , and georgia. Have you spoken to any of the other attorneys about what he told you yesterday . I cant say whether or not weve spoken to any other attorneys. Why cant you say that . Hold on a minute. I why cant you . Well, again, these things are matters of strategy, in terms of litigation. We wouldnt want to obviously have any detrimental effect on anybodys litigation. At the center of this testimony and the case is Donald John Trump as an employee, using physical force in the course of duties for the trump organization. This shouldnt come as a matter of surprise to folks, there are ample examples press, on youtube, anybody who has ever attended a rally or seen Video Footage of a rally from the 2016 campaign knows that donald trump has instructed individuals to engage in acts of violence, to engage in acts of confiscation of individuals property. And this is a matter of Public Record at this point, stephanie. It is. All right, ben, thank you for joining us. Its not that you cant tell us, its that you dont want to. And that is interesting to me. Coming up next, one miami school says vaccinated students must stay home for 30 days after each Covid Vaccine shot to protect others. That is absolutely ridiculous and its a consequence of spreading misinformation that the cdc has already very clearly debunked. Were going to dig into the facts. What you need to know, next.

Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Now to some other stories you need to know on this tuesday. The New York Times reporting that the fda plans to authorize a mix and match approach to covid boosters, allowing americans to receive a different vaccine as a booster shot than the one they initially got. And theres some very good news from the nations Largest School district. The average weekly positive rate for students in new york citys Public Schools is just 0. 25 . That is very low. That is well below the citys overall average daily rate, but some experts say despite those encouraging numbers, the city might not be testing enough with their students. The Vaccine Battle is now hitting College Football as well, with Washington State firing football coach Nick Rolovich and four of his assistants for refusing the state mandate to get vaccinated for covid19. And in hockey, the nhl has suspended evander kane for 21 games without pay, because he gave a fake Covid Vaccination card. But you have to turn up the volume for this story. It matters. One Private School in miami is making headlines across the country for implementing this very controversial rule that is not based in any facts. If you vaccinate your child, you will have to keep them home for 30 days after each shot over fears of, quote, Vaccine Shedding. A claim that has already been completely debunked the cdc. That very same school made headlines last spring from barring teachers who got vaccinated. Brandy zadrozny joins me with more. What is Vaccine Shedding . The only place you can hear about it is on the internet. Theres no respectable doctor talking about it. Absolutely not. Hey, steph. Good morning. So Vaccine Shedding with covid is this super false claim that people who have been vaccinated somehow emit a kind of contagious particle. So its not true. This vaccine is not a live vaccine. There is no shedding at all. But this claim has been spread mostly online. People claim that being near a vaccinated person can cause all sorts of things in an unvaccinated person. Were talking infertile to the transmission of covid19. I have read so many wild stories of people saying, you know, they wont let vaccinated Family Members near their newborn babies, that store owners wont let the unvaccinated customers come in anymore. You know, a teacher actually told students not to hug their parents for too long if they were vaccinated. Its junk. Its misinformation, but a lot of people believe it. Dangerous junk. Putting into context for us, tell us a little bit more about this school. To be clear, Sentner Academy is an outlier. They are millionaire real estate magnates in miami. They are the married cofounders of this centner academy. They happen to have a lot of money so they have a lot of power over this school. They are not regular people. They fund antivaccine films, targeting black, brown, and indigenous communities. They host antivaccine activists at their school. They had robert f. Kennedy at their school, having lunchtime with their children, with their students. They threatened teachers who got vaccinated and now theyre threatening their students and parents based on this nonsense. Is this the only school doing it . Because i want to understand, how widespread is it in terms of the information theyre putting out there, because even if its one tiny school, suddenly this story makes its way around the country and louise ruhle is calling me saying, shes worried. Extremes. Were not seeing this level of insanity sweeping through other schools, but for the last year and a half, schools have been sort of a ground zero for antimaxers and antivaxers. Florida schools have been hit particularly hard, but Governor Ron Desantis imposed this ban on school Mask Mandates. So we have seen School Board Meetings being disrupted. We have seen teachers and School Board Members being threatened and harassed. So this miami school is extreme, but it is indicative of the moment that were in. Besides us expecting you to work 24 hours, 7 days a week to debunk all of this garbage, what do we do to combat it . Oh, gosh. I mean, you can all join me in the terrible parts of the internet. I think the important thing to remember is that this is extreme. This is an extreme community and an extreme situation. We have looked at Mask Mandates and Vaccine Mandates, and in general, these things work. There is some good news here. 95 of the country is going along just fine with Vaccine Mandates. 95 to 99 of schools before covid hit were doing were goo with Vaccine Mandates, got their kids vaccinated for measles, mumps, and rubella, and all kinds of stuff. Theres a lot more evidence to suggest that things will go the same way this time. Its reason to hope. I always like to end the show with a little hope. And its rare you give us hope. Brandy zadrozny, always good to see you. Thank you for your extraordinary reporting. Thank you at home for watching this very busy hour. Im Stephanie Ruhle live in d.
