actions might have caused harm to our national security. curiously, republicans on the hill aren t asking those same questions. in fact, most don t seem very fazed at all by this. the hypocrisy of folks in my party, that spent years spending wiping a server, are now out there defending a man who very clearly did not take the national security of the united states to heart, and will be up to the doj whether or not that reaches a level of indictment. but, this is disgusting, in my mind, and no president should act this way, obviously. it is disgusting. republicans are silent, because what trump did was wrong, and they know it. he potentially put the united states in danger, there is no doubt about it. and worse, he is still putting americans in danger, as the washington post reports, trump and his cronies have put rank and file civil servants in harm s way after the mar-a-lago search. attorney general garland faced online assassination threats, he decried the rising unfou
anti-gay ballots on to lift turnout. carl rove, knew what he was dealing. the democrats, on the other hand? well, in an effort to qualify an abortion related measure in arizona, fell short last month, and it s unclear whether one will make the ballot in michigan. the only other states with abortion related ballot measures are for monticello fournié. as one pro abortion rights political strategist said to democrats, they are playing checkers instead of chess. my sunday night panel is back with me, kurt, we ve known for years that the conservative majority on the supreme court would likely restrict abortion access, they telegraphed, it saying that trump would only appoint pro life judges while he was running for office. why do you think democrats never came up with a unified political legislative strategy around this. well, again i think i referenced this in the last segment. you have to remember this mindset that all of us were in
republicans attempt to make abortion a major issue for 2020. anti-abortion activists have a friend in the white house, a president who devotes a great deal of time reciting false claims of infant side and who said he ll stack the supreme court with pro life judges. add to that, republicans now control 30 state legislatures. missouri senate is the latest to pass a bill that narrows the window for when a woman may have an abortion. alabama s governor kay ivey late last night signed what is the most restrictive bill in any state, one that effectively bans the procedure. 28 states have introduced similar restrictive abortion measures. last week georgia joined three other states outlawing abortion at the first sign of a fetal heartbeat. often that s before a woman even knows before she s pregnant. again, a lot of discussion being driven by a president who has low poll numbers and sees this as an issue that can rally his base. the critical question is will it rally democrats as well.
majority on the supreme court. as a candidate donald trump made it clear what his goal was for roe v. wade. i am pro-life, and i will be appointing pro life judges. i would think that will go back to the individual states. do you want to see the court overturn roe v. wade. that s what s going to be that will happen. brett kavanaugh s views on abortion have been hotly debated. he was asked during this e-mail in which he raised doubts about whether roe v. wade can be considered rule of the land. roe v. wade is an important precedent in the supreme court. it s been reaffirmed many times. with me now the is the director of political communications for planned parenthood. the sound of president trump that we played is not nearly as
forward with a subpoena. what would happen in a situation lie that? the president said he would like to speak to the mueller team and see what happens, wolf. you certainly will. thank you very much. let s get insight and political analysis from our experts right now. jeffrey toobin, an expert on the supreme court. look at the four individuals. apparent finalists. what do you think? mo w.h.o. will win it? most important thing to observe i think is that they re much more similar than different. and we can find subtle differences. you know, barrett is just become a federal appeals court judge. kavanaugh has been a judge for 13 years. so i mean, there s a vast difference in terms of experience but in terms of politics, i think the most important thing is to remember what donald trump said in the campaign, which is he will appoint pro life judges to vote to overturn roe v. wade. what i think he meant is he will
