Larry elder has a link on his campaign website making baseless claims of fraud calling the results twisted even though they haven t even been announced yet. Does it surprise any of you that we have someone on the other side of this that is to the right of donald trump. We may have defeated donald trump, we have not defeated trumpism. Trumpism is still on the ballot in california. So i can t think of any level, any front, any policy this man has engaged in that has made life better for us here in california. He shut down churches. While keeping open strip clubs and marijuana dispensaries and liquor stores. All this in california as police in washington, d. C. Plan to fence off the u. S. Capitol once again. This time ahead of a right wing rally planned for saturday preparing for some of those protestors on saturday to be armed.

Whether saudi officials were complicit in the attacks. In shanksville, pennsylvania, former president george w. Bush equated the terrorists behind the 9/11 behind 9/11 to the domestic terrorists driving the news today. There is little cultural overlap between violent extremists abroad and violent extremists at home. But then there is disdain for pluralism and their disregard for human life, and their determination to defile national symbols. They are children of the same foul spirit. Meanwhile, donald trump did not attend any officials memorials, but he did stop by n. Y. P. D. And f. D. N. Y. Precincts close to trump tower where he decided to honor the 9/11 victims by bashing his political rivals, namely joe biden, who this week announced his new sixprong plan to defeat covid19 once and for all.

I m chris hayes. The first big highstakes political test of the biden era and the posttrump era is happening one week from today. It s the recall election of california s democratic governor, gavin newsom. Now, rightwing forces have come together to try to remove newsom, and the person currently best positioned to replace him if the recall is successful is a man by the name of larry elder.

It doesn t require that at all because, obviously it provides at least six weeks for a person to be able to get an abortion. That s not even the part of abbott s comments yesterday that capturing headlines today, but we ll stop right here. Failure number one to grasp the basic concept about pregnancy. Banning abortion after six weeks of pregnancy doesn t give women six weeks to think about what she s going to do as abbott seems to suggest there.

But facts be damned. Governor abbott this afternoon signed into law a restrictive voting bill that democrats in the statehouse held up for weeks. Many of them fleeing to washington, d.
