3:02 am
people, and our beloved constitution. just a few hours ago, the u.s. senate confirmed judge brett kavanaugh to the united states supreme court. >> now both parties are taking this fight straight to the midterms here which are less than a month away at this particular time. here is cnn congressional correspondent phil mattingly. >> reporter: brett kavanaugh has been confirmed. brett kavanaugh has been sworn in. he is now a justice in supreme court. it's what is lying in the wake of this confirmation battle one of the most bitter i've ever seen in a nomination ever and what happens next in the senate and supreme court and politically? you get a gauge of that in the midterm elections. what kind of impact will this have? no question it's rallied the bases of both sides.
3:03 am
will it help one side or the other? it's something that senate majority leader mitch consequently weighed it on. >> our base is fired up. we finally discovered the up with thing that would fire up the republican base and we didn't think of it. i was talking to two of my political advisers yesterday about the advantage that these guys by their tactics have given to us going into these red state competitive races. and we are pretty excited. they managed to deliver the only thing we had nod been able to anything out how to do which is get our folks fired up. the other side is fired up and have been all year. >> reporter: the democratic base is very riled up. the democratic base is very motivated and will the democratic base come out in the midterms and flip the house to the democratic side but give them a chance in the senate in that is the open right now. also a broader question here of what happens next beyond just the politics and the institutions and the united
3:04 am
states senate and united states supreme court and, frankly, the country. i don't know that anybody came out feeling good about the process that just occurred. you can talk to senators in both parties who acknowledge they were angry and disappointed, who acknowledged they aren't very happy with one another right now. a question i asked mcconnell. he said the country has been through worse times and will move forward through this. the senate will as well. a question is the people are asking is this a rock bottom moment, a moment people take a step back and figure cooling down is the better option? seems unlikely. one person i spoke to yesterday said, bluntly, it's only going to get worse from hee. not a lot of optimism but baseline nobody has an answer what is next. everyone can agree what just happened probably isn't the best thing. phil mattingly, cnn, capitol hill. president trump says an event tomorrow at the white house for the now justice kavanaugh. >> the president is also praising the way he handle the nomination saying his criticism of kavanaugh's accuser christine
3:05 am
blasey ford had great impact. for more we turn to senior washington correspondent joe johns live at the white house. the president said that was actually turning point in getting the nomination to get to fruition. joe? >> reporter: absolutely, a turning point the president has said. also, as you just mentioned, at the white house is all about the midterms. interestingly enough, it is the perspective of the white house and the president that this kavanaugh nomination, which initially looked like a great burden for the republican party, may have actually turned out to be quite a gift. it's about gender wars and it's about culture wars and it's about character assassination, they say, of justice kavanagh. then there is this, this notion of fears of mob rule, which is something the president emphasized last night when he was in kansas. concerns about law and order almost. now we did see here in
3:06 am
washington, d.c. hundreds and hundreds of arrests, many of those liberal and progressive women being locked up on the streets of washington, d.c., protesting what they said was allegations of sexual assault involving this nominee now justice to the supreme court. the president answers that by saying, on the right, there were many women, conservative women who were also fired up in support of kavanaugh. listen. >> i feel we are, in many ways, stronger than the men in his favor. so you have a lot of women that are extremely happy. a tremendous number of women. because they are thinking of their sons, they are thinking of their husbands and their brothers and their ungs and others. >> reporter: so besides the event here in the white house, tomorrow we are expecting the president to continue his upbeat travels around the country and then in anticipation of the midterms he is going to orlando to address the international
3:07 am
association of police chiefs. back to you. >> joe johns, thank you so much. the protests against kavanaugh's nomination led up to supreme court steps. they continued protesting after then justice kavanaugh was officially confirmed as the newest member of the court. he was sworn in. the protests were banging on the doors of supreme court. the building there you see them. they issue pushed back by supreme court police. gop leaders responded to the protesters by calling them a mob. >> in their quest for power, the radical democrats have turned into an angry mob. >> we refuse to be intimidated by the mob of people that were coming after republican members at their homes and in the halls. >> what we have learned is the resistance that has existed sips t since day the day after the
3:08 am
november 16th 2016 election is centered here on capitol hill. they are encouraged mob rule. >> you don't hand matches for an arsonist and you don't give power to an angry left wing mob and that is what they have become. >> the tactics employed both by judiciary committee, democratic senators and by the, you know, the virtual mob that has assaulted all of us in the course of this process, has turned our base on fire. >> joining me is political reporter daniel lipin and aprilry ryan and white house correspondent for american urban radios and author of the new book "under fire." become to both of you. what we heard here, you know, not believing in coincidences, all of these men talking about the mob, the mob on the left, democratic mob. is this essentially what -- we
3:09 am
are 31 days out now from the midterm elections, what should be expected? ? or is this something different? is this the line from republicans about the democrats and their chances in november? >> i think republicans are trying to use those images you saw on capitol hill of protesters and of women who have talked about their own sexual assault experiences to republican members. remember the one in that elevator with senator flake? they are trying to use it on the head and say, well, these people are just part of a mob, they are uncontrollable masses. we shouldn't listen to them. and democrats are going to respond and say, you know, these are real people who felt like kavanaugh was not the right man for the supreme court and echo what lisa murkowski said. maybe he is a good man and smart man, but not the man for the moment. you saw that reflected in the polls where the majority of
3:10 am
americans, they were ver skeptical of the nomination after these weeks of attacks on the guy's character. >> april, let's remind people, as the president said last night, that you don't hand matches to an arsonist, you don't give power to an angry left wing mob, they become too extreme, too dangerous to govern republicans and believe in the rule of law and not the rule of mob. let's just remind people of president trump's campaign and what we saw in 2015 and 2016. we have got just a few examples here and then i want to come to you out of the richness of president trump now referring to a mob. let's watch. >> i was nice. oh, take your time. the second group, i was pretty nice. the third group, i'll be a little more violent and the fourth group, i'll say get the hell out of here! >> rough up?
3:11 am
maybe he should have been roughed up because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing. if you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you? seriously. okay? just knock the hell. i promise you, i will pay for the legal fees. i promise. do you know what they used to do to guys like that when they were in a place like this? they would be carried out on stretcher. guards are gentle. he is walking out high fives and smiling and laughing. i'd like to punch him in the face, i'll tell you. in good old days, they would rip him out of that seat so fast. get him out. try not to hurt him. if you do, i'll defend you in court. don't worry about it. a lie! he lied! >> do you believe you've done anything to create a tone where this kind of violence would be encouraged? >> i hope not. i truly hope not.
3:12 am
we have to be politically correct. oh, please don't hurt him. they are allowed to get up and interrupt us horribly and we have to be very, very gentle, very gentle. they can swing, they can hit people, but if we hit them back, it's a terrible, terrible thing. right? >> do you regret saying any of those things, especially the things you've said about punching protesters and sending them out on stretches? >> i don't regret it at all. i'm not happy with and that and i would always express my feelings about that. >> this president, as we saw in the last 90 seconds there, is call the protesters a mob. the context here is important. >> victor, you got to remember, the president is not the only one saying it. these are republicans talking points, this mob issue or this mob, the word mob is a talking
3:13 am
point in this moment. but what this president and those supporting him in the midst of their victory are kavanagh is the fact that no matter the win or a loss, this is still the united states of america. and this nation was built on protesters. we, the people, who are still forming a more perfect union. and these protests are a part of growing pains, you know? there is one group that says we don't want it. another group says, yes. the last i checked, we are allowed as americans to be able to -- and have the freedom to do that. and to change the dynamic to call them mob, that does put an ugly context on who these people are. you know, this president likes to talk about dr. king. he celebrated dr. king in january. and what we know about dr. king is that he wanted to make the comfortable uncomfortable with demonstrations appear nd if it t for movements like the civil
3:14 am
rights movement and other great movements of the nation we would not have progressed thus far. when the president doesn't like it, unfortunately, it's a mob. but when it goes his way, he embraces it. but we are a nation that is divided. we are a nation of different trains of thought. you have a group of people who believe that judge -- well, justice kavanaugh now was unfairly treated international process and another group of people people that women have not been heard and advice teen ford did not get her voice heard and the fact there was a limited scope of an fbi investigation. have you a divided nation. instead of dividing it by calling it morb, where is the healing? a lot of people out here need healing. >> certainly. daniel, the republicans have a lot to celebrate and they did that last night. the president talked about the new deal with canada and mexico, the unemployment rate, and justice kavanaugh now. senator rubio tweeted this.
3:15 am
is he or anyone doing more than tweeting about this? i mean, from either side. if there are people who believe that members of the democratic party are going too far that are democrats or republicans, doing anything to try to roll this back in? >> i think there is a clip i saw of senator cory booker yesterday in iowa saying that it was below him to hate trump. so he didn't want to stoop down to that level. rubio's tweet, you know, you want someone to not just speak out on twitter, but also make alliances with democrats, you know, try to push the ball forward with a bipartisan agenda and i think as long as you have president trump up there trying
3:16 am
to sew division and what he has done since he announced for president, that is going to be very tough and you're going to see the country almost split in two. so it's also, you know, interesting how they, you know, the supreme court has become this very partisan institution and also you have two, you know, one-third of the, you know, male republican members have been accused of sexual harassment and assault. so that is kind of noteworthy. you don't usually see us. >> april, take us into white house. the president said he believes women are happy with the confirmation, women across the country are happy with the confirmation of now justice kavanaugh. is that just putting a good face on what the others in the white house fear will be a backlash or do they really believe this is great for bringing women into the republican fold? >> this president always is a
3:17 am
winner no matter what. but he did win. this was a win for him. and for women it depends on what side of the aisle you're in. i think back to gloria steinem and how we had a conversation in my book about women. this president received 53% of white women who voted for him. 51% of white married women voted for him. she believes it's from the president's -- not the president's, but the husband, their husband's ideology and their economy, what their husbands voted for. let's see how this plays out in november. but what i will tell you, i talked to steve bannon this week. believe it or not. he said this is beyond the supreme court. this is beyond kavanaugh. he said this is about solidifying the presidency. he said if we win the supreme court nomination it will solidify the senate to make sure
3:18 am
they have the senate and they are hopeful they will keep the house. we will see. this has bigger ramifications and implications on the presidency versus justice supreme court. >> we are just 31 days out now from the midterm elections and we will see if this passion, from both sides, from either side continues into the next month. april ryan and daniel lippman, thank you both. >> thank you. the pivotal senator in the supreme court nomination is susan collins. she did not believe that kavanaugh is the one who assaulted dr. christine blasey ford. >> i found dr. ford's testimony to be heart wrenching, painful, compelling, and i believe that she believes what she testified to. i did not believe that brett kavanaugh was her assailant. so i do believe that she was
3:19 am
assaulted. i don't know by whom. and i'm not certain when. >> see the full interview with dana and senator collins on "state of the union" this morning at 9:00 a.m. only on cnn. a chicago community is searching for some answers this morning after two men were shot and killed. seemingly at random. why police believe this man here in the surveillance video is responsible. turkish officials are trying to determine if a saudi journalist who mysterious disappeared has actually been killed. protected income for life.e learn more at retire your risk dot org.

forces with the national domestic hot line and a foundation for women to talk with seven different women who did suffer through financial abuse. one is sandra who had a home of her own and fell in love and got married. when she was driving with her new husband to florida to get on a cruise for their mohoneymoon, she noticed something wasn't right. >> we are on the road and he was buying souvenirs and gifts and we were stopping to eat. maybe he didn't put the allotment to the side but maybe saved that money so that we can really enjoy the honeymoon. until we finally hit the border of florida and he tells me that his card that he had, his credit card was maxed out. and he did not have any cash money at the next gas stop.
3:47 am
and i ask him, i said, oh, but you've been buying stuff on the road the whole time. what happened to the money? and he said, oh, i've been going in your purse in your wallet and spending that money. >> this isn't easy to talk about let alone reveal it public but i talks to suze about this earlier. listen to this. >> first of all, i was in shock. here you are. this really vital brilliant woman who has been so independent on your own and now you could very easily see how this is going to tumble into total financially fiasco. but i want to know what is so fascinating? throughout this entire interview, until the very end, she had no idea that she was being financially abused, because it wasn't a black and blue mark. it wasn't a slap. it wasn't verbal abuse. and i looked at her and i said, but this wasn't right.
3:48 am
and she had, "why not?" you'll see as you see this video and many of the other videos that none of the women had a clue that they were besides being physically mentally emotionally and psychology can i abused that they were financially abused as well. it was so sad to me. >> you asked her another important question i want to get to. let's listen to this when you asked her, why did you stay? >> at the time, i didn't have a job. and he was the primary bread winner for the home. and then the bottom fell out all over again. well, when he would get paid, all of a sudden, at 8:00, your deposit hits and 8:15 you're broke. your account is in the negative. i could not figure out for the life of me where is your money going? >> what do you say to women who stay for that reason? they are married and they want to honor those vows. >> it's not till death do you
3:49 am
part, it's until debt do you part. this is a typical sign of being financially abused, where, all of a sudden, you're finding yourself in a situation where the money is gone. you have no access to the money. you don't have credit cards any more because they won't allow you to or if you do, they have been maxed out by your partner. they are watching every move that you make and, all of a sudden, you have this feeling of, wait. i'm not understanding this. so it is a essential that every single woman has their own credit cards, they have their own bank account, they have a fund where if they need to leave, they want to leave, they can. do not become financially trapped because once you're trapped there, now you're in big trouble. >> i wanted to ask you about something else that she said. because you mentioned she was so independent and she, you know, was on her own and it almost became -- she became child-like,
