tv   The Weekend  MSNBC  June 15, 2024 5:00am-6:00am PDT

5:00 am
friends, you will stay with us that does it for msnbc's special extended coverage of the trooping of the color. please do not go anywhere. our coverage continues on the weekend right now. and good morning to you, simone. >> good morning. i've been watching it from the green room and good morning to all of you out there. welcome to the weekend. i'm symone sanders-townsend along with my friends symone sanders-townsend and alicia mendendez. we have a full show ahead including the follow from this week supreme court major decisions and congressman jamie raskin will join us on set here at the table to discuss donald trump's first visit to capitol hill since the insurrection. but we began in london as princess kate makes her first official public appearance since revealing her cancer diagnosis. as you see right now we see princess kate along with prince charles, queen camilla the prince of wales and their
5:01 am
children. they are on the balcony for this iconic photo and this is all a part of the trooping of the color celebration for king charles's birthday. this takes on extra special meaning and we want to bring in our legal analyst melissa murray . melissa, this is an iconic photo given the cancer diagnosis. just one week ago fulks did not think this moment would be possible. what is going through your mind? >> this is a really diminished royal family but it's great to see her out and about. you used to see that balcony overflowing with extended family members from cousins and children and right now all you see are the duke and dashes of gloucester, prince george, prince louis, the prince and princess of wales, the king and
5:02 am
queen, the duke and duchess of edinburg and louise. this looks different from balconies of past. maybe in line with king charles slimmed-down monarchy but there is a question of whether that e is fit for purpose when two of its most senior members have been sidelined for health issues. >> a very important point. the context absolutely matters. join nest down from buckingham palace is nbc news correspondent megan fitzgerald. megan, tell us from your perspective what you are seeing? megan? as we work to get megan back michael you have been watching along. absolutely stunning. the sky is stunning and i think melissa's point is an interesting one. in years past that balcony
5:03 am
would have been overflowing. we haven't seen it like this and i do think the diminished royal family and the tragedies they experienced over the past year specifically as it relates to the cancer diagnosis is something harrowing for any family to deal with with one diagnosis let alone to on top of the missing members frankly of the royal family that have removed themselves. this is a striking time indeed. >> i followed the royal family since i was a teenager. i am really always captured by this. this family is -- if they do, -- if they don't. now when you have the king who i think appropriately says this is the modern era. we want to scale it to the
5:04 am
working royals and those who can really kind of forward the brand. and they say that's too small, are you sure you have enough people? look, i think this family has the ability to put its finger on the pulse at the right time and i think even in this moment where two members of the family are dealing with cancer treatments it is showing their humanity and showing that part of them like the rest of us. they have the added pressure of having to be present and i think the fact that they are there and kate made it to this event standing next to the king is a powerful symbol of resiliency for this family and as we go through difficulties like other families we also know our duty. >> i believe we do now have our
5:05 am
correspondent megan fitzgerald. nagin is at buckingham palace and she heard a conversation. tell us what's happening from your perspective? >> reporter: this is the highly anticipated moment of this entire celebration for the king you can see the royal family on the balcony. you see the king and the queen alongside the prince and princess of wales and this is a moment that a lot of people did not think we would see. of course the princess is and go up -- undergoing her preventative chemotherapy so it was understood she wouldn't be here but when she made that announcement yesterday to say -- see the thousands of people were here they were excited. that is an understatement. the royal family and you can see behind me thousands of
5:06 am
people making their way to the gates of buckingham palace for that moment, the opportunity to see the royal family. now to take you back a few hours ago this morning it was the first time that the public saw princess kate in her horse- drawn carriage with her three children inside and since she announced that she was going through this preventative chemotherapy treatment three months ago she made her way down the mound and i will pause for a second while the aircraft flies by but the crowd erupting with excitement as she made her way to where she ended up going to the balcony to oversee her guards there. the irish guards and of course making her way back but she was following behind the king and queen that were inside their horse-drawn carriage a little bit different of a set up. we did not see the king on horseback of the recommendation from his medical team they advised that he write in the
5:07 am
carriage alongside his queen because again keep in mind he is also going through cancer treatments now. >> sorry crowds are erupting here. and you see the colors red white and blue flying overhead and i do want to get to this photo that kensington palace released of the princess of wales yesterday she also wrote a statement to the world basically saying and giving an update about her condition and i want to read for you briefly she said i making good progress but is anyone going through chemotherapy will no there are good days and bad days, my treatment is ongoing and will be for more months. in her message she says she also knows she is not out of the woods yet. with that information we are seeing the princess of wales on
5:08 am
the balcony knowing all that she's going through and it really is an incredible moment and a moment of courage and strength. anyone who had cancer or know someone going through cancer can really understand what it takes for her to stand tall and greet the public knowing all that she's going through right now. guys? >> nbc's megan fitzgerald. joining us now is msnbc royal contributor royal editor for vanity fair and author of " the new royals," nikki -- washington post called this morning of the princess and the king appearing together as a show of consistency and humanity and i was talking to simone and alecia about the idea of this family having to be all things to everyone but now experiencing one of the very tragic and difficult things that families
5:09 am
go through and showing that side of their humanity as well. what is your take on the imagery we have seen this morning and the feeling of their you think among those watching this around the globe. >> having watched that i noticed that wonderful interaction between the princess of wales and the king you can see kate turning in, talking to the king and these two have a shared journey. they are going through similar experiences and it is completely extraordinary that within this family both of them are going through a cancer diagnosis and cancer treatment and yet here they both are up on the palace today and two of the most senior members, two of the most loved members very much a closeness between the two of them and clearly it must've taken a huge amount of effort for the princess to be
5:10 am
here. she looked absolutely immaculate and if you noticed the way that was choreographed what her children were wearing as well they were in tones of navy and white. i think for her to be there to support the king was usually important and this is only his seven -- second trip of the color and you notice there were protesters there but the fact is he is the king and he is here despite what he's going through and i think the image today up on that balcony and really projecting the image of united royal family albeit slightly depleted has been very important in what has been a very rocky and uncertain few months for the family. >> all right, thank you both so much, we appreciate it. next, president biden is back
5:11 am
in the united states after his trip to the g7 summit in italy. we will break down his week pushing for a democracy on the world stage and linger -- later congressman jamie raskin joins us onset. we talk about the scandals of the supreme court and his push to keep them accountable. to keep them accountable. ♪ music ♪ ♪ unnecessary action hero! ♪

5:15 am
president biden is back in the united dates after attending the g7 summit in italy. the group announced 50 billion dollars in new financing for ukraine from frozen russian assets. the white house said the united dates for work with the country and the g7 leaders to finalize details of the loan in the coming months. it will provide money for ukraine's military and reconstruction by the end of the year. and just this morning vice president kamala harris announced the u.s. will provide an additional 1.5 dollars to bolster ukraine's energy sector and humanitarian needs. joining us now is regaling, cofounder of the lincoln project and msnbc contributor. >> welcome. so i said this was a great week for the president. he is having these back to back weeks both on the national stage and domestically the economy, the numbers for strong
5:16 am
, how should the president's team contextualize types of images, these types of moments both now and going forward as you have a 34 indicted former president running against him wailing and speaking incoherently and rallies and a base around him that is churning but not really turning the votes in the way a lot of people think they are. >> i would say there are a large number of republican voters. we might call them nikki haley voters that do not like donald trump on national security. these are older voters and they tend to be white men in the suburbs we even call them red dawn conservatives. they remembered ronald reagan and said they don't like this now.
5:17 am
they don't like donald trump cozying up and so i think the more the white house and the campaign can make the president look like the commander-in- chief put him in a position of showing that america is in its place in the world as a leader i think is very good not only to bolster support with the democratic base because a lot of the democratic race is per ukraine i think also with those soft republicans really don't want to go back to trump they are not quite convinced on joe biden yet. >> president biden said taken together the security agreement -- send an unmistakable message to putin. what is message and what is the signal to the white house is trying to do here? >> president biden and his team have been trying to do this since the beginning of russia's invasion of ukraine to let the world know to get this group of european countries and america together to tell russia to cut it out and more importantly that they have ukraine's back and in turn largely europe's back because this is russia
5:18 am
knocking on europe's front and side doors. and with they are really trying to do is keep russia from thinking they can do these kinds of things without any kind of low back. you look at the sanctions that have happened over and over and also this is also about china. making sure that china knows they can't do this to taiwan later on. so saying look at how the rest of the world comes together when an autocrat tries to take over a democracy and another country they believe is there's and so this is also about them letting china know if you try this we also have something for you as well. >> >> the split screen this week,
5:19 am
much like the split screen last week week talking about the split screens and again for everyone saying joe biden seems to old i don't know about you but from france doing all these things coming back to america going back out to the g7 in italy now he's on his way to l.a. right now as we seek to do another event and i don't know where donald trump has been. railing against machine on a stage. the split screen here is something that should not be taken lightly and i think about the announcement from the vice president on our way to the peace summit in switzerland, the g7 leaders meeting their commitment they made to ukraine with a split screen of vladimir
5:20 am
putin talking about what he needs outlining his peace plan for ukraine. it's like the arsonist is talking about how to put out the fires how do you think a domestic audience. the political professionals around here at the table and eugene, we understand and we get this. what about every day regular people who may not be paying close attention to why joe biden was even in italy this week. how does all of the things that happen translate? >> at this time early and marginal but i think it shows that the one thing we have known since he took office is this is a man who meets his moments. he met his moment at the beginning. he met his moment at the economic crisis in the wake of
5:21 am
covid. he met his moment over and over again and i think we are just a few days away from that first debate and so what split screen will look like is exactly what we will see in atlanta which is someone railing against the ghost. with someone who will be like you really want four more years of this? i think it's a very stark thing and a lot of americans are upset about their choices but this is where we are. we are locked in. people will say yes, inflation is high but do i want to go back into a place of more chaos. i want to wake up every morning and worry about what the president is thinking? that's what people in russia have to do. >> i also think it's about wondering what the members of the president's family are doing. the graft keeps on giving with
5:22 am
this crew and you have victor or bond of great repute tweeting about his meeting with don junior noting i had a great meeting today with donald trump in budapest. we discussed how we can make and gary and u.s. relations great again as they were under the presidency of donald trump the problem is since mr. trump junior eugene is not an employee of the federal government meeting with the head of a foreign government sort of a violation of the logan act but one violation here and there is par for the course for the trump crew so my point is they have not changed in their behavior nor their approach to government. it's all about setting up these relationships and putting in place these opportunities you are sending your son out to go meet with the head of a foreign
5:23 am
government that's not a good day in government relations but what is your take on how should we be reading these types of actions by the trump team? >> at best it means they are doubling down on creating relationships -- donald trump he was president talked about and talk to his aides and publicly about how he liked people like victor or bond or vladimir putin how they had power and how they wielded their power in their country -- people who believe that kind of the experiment we have been
5:24 am
operating under should continue and it shouldn't be changed. it should be brought in for more people but that this is the path we should continue on but when you watch donald trump jr. it shows you the trump family, they want to continue to building stronger relationships with stronger men around the world. trump thinks that makes america look stronger. would say the opposite and that is something that the american people will be reminded of. if not later today you will see the biden campaign talk about this meeting in some way shape or form. >> all right, thank you. eugene daniels and his fabulous hollywood set, thank you very much. >> next donald trump calls a

an entire year going around the country to find the perfect spot to host their convention for donald trump and he comes back now and says this is horrible. how -- tell people what that means for donors and what that means for activists and what that means for the city. we saw the mayor come out and say well you are still coming, right? we need to do what we need to do. talk about the impact when you put this process together it's detailed in the selection of a city is not just a one off. there were people in from's orbit who were part of that process. his daughter-in-law is setting up the head of the rnc so how does this break for them particularly given that your members of congress are asking
5:31 am
if he said that. >> first and foremost on a positive note happy father's day weekend to you brother chair. and to all of the fathers out there. this is a disaster for donald trump and the republican party. there is so much that goes into michael as you know goes into selecting a city for your convention but also working with that city. you are working closely with the mayor and closely with the governor and all of the security and emergency officials. those folks are not happy today that the nominee for the republican party believes that their city is a horrible city. so many of those nuanced things in the end they have to work out those folks are going to turn their heads and turn a blind eye. they needed a street closure or something. >> also who is the chair or the
5:32 am
financing? what will he do in order to encourage people to invest more money into the rnc in milwaukee? >> i was in milwaukee. i had a black man's roundtable. i had a roundtable with latino citizens about immigration. i visited churches. this is a remarkable city and a vibrant city. very diverse and has a proud union background and so it is amazing how donald trump just stepped in this and this is the city where the largest number of voters and probably the most prominent battleground states >> it idiotic. it is absolutely idiotic and that's why keep donald trump on tv as much as possible because he will say dumb things like
5:33 am
this every time and giftwrap this election. >> mr. chair speaking of joe biden we are seeing him d playing in los angeles right now . he is arriving in l.a. after concluding the g7 summit in italy and folks might wonder why the president in an -- is in l.a. he is getting into dust -- right now with his daughter ashley. talk to us about this fundraiser and this is where you are not at the table with us today. you're also going to be attending this fundraiser. how important are the efforts that you all are undertaking in l.a. and how will that translate to broader support for democrats across the board with that the money. >> this is the second part -- remember we had three presidents
5:34 am
and i think we have another event later on next week in which president biden will be with president clinton and secretary clinton. this is going to be a great event. will have president obama, president biden. we will have george clooney, julia roberts and we get opportunities to talk about how unified we are as a party and now we have to do everything possible to compete in these battleground states and as you said the proceeds of these events go to what we are doing in the battleground states and those battleground states we have opened almost 200 offices in places like wisconsin and pennsylvania and michigan. now i'm hearing that the republicans have --. in milwaukee ironically have one of these african american outreach centers the next time
5:35 am
the next time he stops by their we will give a little tip to the folks in that new ice cream shop that is there. >> mr. chairman you talked about battleground states but you're also investing 2 million dollars and 11 non-battleground states. can we talk about the fact that over at the rnc are using their money to pay for donald trump's legal bills. >> chairman, you want to be in this position right now if you're our national party. you are on the ground, or in the field with voters, you are in states like wisconsin where apparently i guess republicans now think it's a horrible place to be so let them think that. meanwhile you will continue to do what?
5:36 am
the work you are already doing building the resources and putting them in place. >> that's right and this is what we did in the midterm. part of how we beat the red wave was we went back to this 50 state strategy of investing on the ground early in the states. not only in battleground states but in all the states. the one thing that president biden told me when i became the dnc chair was that he was recommitting this party to investing in democrats all over the country and so we have increased the amount of money that we are sending to state parties by about 25% and when you go back to the golden days of the 50 state strategy we are even 45% more than howard dean in terms of sending resources into all of our states across the country and so that is paying dividends because it's not just the top of the ticket at the bottom of the ticket, the state senate races.
5:37 am
michael, you are the expert in doing this at the rnc that's in investing in those on the ground and that is how you lift the entire vote. that is her strategy at the dnc and this is the strategy that president biden wanted us to invest in. we have done a lot and we will continue to do more than we are investing in montana, dakota, ohio, alaska, nebraska, texas. these are places where the national party has not always given reese's -- resources we are pouring resources there so we can compete everywhere. >> i gave a little raise the roof for nebraska. >> maryland will be competitive this year. >> we are told to go. you're having too much fun.

♪ ingrezza ♪ the supreme court gave what could be considered a victory to reproductive rights advocates this week. the justices unanimously objected a challenge to mifepristone a drug used in medical abortions just as brett kavanaugh wrote for the court that while the plaintiff had "sincere legal, moral, ideologically -- in crestone the group of antiabortion doctors who question the decision did not have legal standing to sue.
5:42 am
the ruling will allow the drug to remain available in states for abortion has not been banned. joining us now is george washington university professor dr. condron as best and joseph stern as well. it feels to me like this is like a signal. this feels like what happened free dom's decision case before the dobbs case and they spent that pay costs caseback and then one year later the dobbs decision came down and this feels to me like that. >> you have not seen the end of this case. we will continue to see challenges. justice brett kavanaugh kept the door open and said this decision does not mean that nobody out there lacked standing to challenge mifepristone but that these particular doctors and dentists antiabortion doctors and dentists do not have standing
5:43 am
because they don't prescribe abortion pills, they don't treat patients who take abortion pills, they just have no skin in the game and i will note that in the lower court you might remember about one year ago it was judge matthew kaczmarek who issued the nationwide ban on mifepristone. he has already allowed three red state to intervene in this case as new plaintiffs so there is a very good chance that we will be doing this all over again and he will say these new play tends -- plaintiffs have standings and we will be dealing with more emergencies at the supreme court where the justices have to decide whether mifepristone can remain legal in blue states where it is already allowed. >> i want to pick up on both those points about the process that involves here. and the utilization of the court.
5:44 am
really sort of the first impression on a subject matter in this case abortion pills. the court is signaling that we are receptive and to bring us something that works. the justice noted that in his opinion future challenges to abortion pills would be more appropriate for the political sphere than the judiciary and i think that is a nodaway, give us the caseback. not only are you talking about the abortion pill, you also have ivf in other issues related to abortion services and women's healthcare that are very much going to be a part of this conversation even though the court may wink and nod at it you will have the next president sort of directing the politics and the policy related to this area as well. >> this will be a time where we
5:45 am
have to be really involved in conversations about broader reproductive rights and justice. so the right to not have a child, the right to have a child and the right to parent a child in a safe and healthy environment so you see these conversations about mifepristone about the right to not have a child the conversations about ivf and when you have a child -- so many these things are entering the political sphere we have to have conversation about the science around all of these things and where that jurisdiction belongs so there is a lot of encroachment on the responsibilities of the fda to have the authority to put medications and drugs into the marketplace to not interfere into the physician and patient relationship and to have people making decisions about what's right for their body and so
5:46 am
there is a lot of things that we have been able to able to advance. entering children in this world but to more importantly decide if you want to do that when you want to do that how you want to do that and not to have these things so politicized and the courts being involved. >> and get is more politicized than it ever has been. >> >> dr. nesbitt, you are board certified and to her point we keep hearing about a tax on ivf. it is ivf abortion and the russian post-had a story that said it's joe biden or donald trump that will decide the future of the abortion pill and i would also argue reproductive rights are at large and from a doctors perspective how do you feel about politicians making
5:47 am
decisions that trained professional should be making? >> i don't know if people understand the human toll of this conversation. if you think about some of the impacts of other health conditions on people and women in particular, birthing people in particular and imagine a twentysomething or 30 something- year-old person who has a diagnosis of cancer that impacts their fertility and the decisions they now have the ability to make about preserving their fertility in some kind of way using assisted reproductive technology harvesting their eggs and being able to use them later after the chemotherapy and to bring a child in this world this may be someone who has not found a life partner has not thought about conversations about having children. they can have a conversation with their healthcare provider

about preserving their fertility in some kind of way now we have discussions in the courts about completely taken that option off the table for them and where is the justice, what is the justice in that decision taking that option away from a 20-year-old or a 22- year-old that they won't be able to parent in that way or be able to give birth to a biological child. i think that that kind of thing is not really resonating with people who are making the decisions in that way and there is really no fairness. there is really no equity being involved in those types of decisions so we really need to reimagine as a society what are our goals here? >> what are we really trying to do? dr. nesbitt, thank you. mark, can you stick around because we do want to talk about the court's decision on bump stocks. they struck down the ban on bump stocks. this really happened this week.

[panting] the supreme court is dead wrong unfortunately for america we will suffer the consequences. if you see someone fire a bump stock or have fired a bump stock you pulled the trigger back and hold that gun against her shoulder you don't pull the trigger manually and now we
5:53 am
have this ruling trying to go on a legal technicality which is nonsensical. to try to tell you that it's not a submachine gun and it is. >> that was msnbc terrorism analyst jim cavanaugh you often see on air in the aftermath of a mass shooting just moments after the supreme court struck down a trumpeter era bram -- ban on bump stocks. even the machine guns are banned in the u.s. justice clarence thomas wrote that a firearm with a bump stock does not meet the definition of a machine gun under federal law. >> mark i will just cut to the quick. folks really don't care about the life and life of people when your court says you can take this piece of equipment
5:54 am
and latches onto your gun and just pull the trigger and have 800 rounds, 800 rounds in one minute be dispensed from that weapon. no human finger can fire 800 rounds in one minute clarence thomas, but this bump stocks can. >> clarence thomas thinks differently and he decides because he rules us. he claims that bump stocks do the work of a human with a lightning fast trigger finger and i think that's outrageous. they increase the rate of fire from 180 rounds to 800 rounds as you said. they decreased accuracy and their only use is to slaughter as many humans as possible in a short time as possible. what justin thomas did was completely butcher the statutory text here. i think it's hard to overstate just how much violence he did.
5:55 am
congress made it very clear anything that lacks a weapon -- let's a weapon fire automatically is prohibited under federal law. the bureau of alcohol tobacco and firearms took a very close look at this device. they tested it and issued a regulation and now they decided they know better than the experts at atf who devoted their lives to setting firearms and how they work. justice thomas in lieu of referring to these experts he included a gift that was made by one of the most extreme and violent gun right groups out there. this shows extraordinary disrespect for human life and the law. it will unleash carnage on innocent americans and is the height of arrogance and irony that show the justices are cocooned in their ever- increasing security details. they are striking down congress's efforts to protect the rest of us from mass
