8:00 pm
also been a lot of questions about the fda authority to make science based decisions about medication going forward. you know, their approval is still there tonight. but what are the concerns about that process and the fda authority moving forward? right the concern erica is that it would undo the way that it has been for many, many decades, which really makes sense. the fda are scientists, and they consult within themselves and with outside scientists when a company says, hey, i want to market this pill . it's the fda. it's the scientists who get to make that decision looking at all the evidence spending months sometimes years, and it's not supposed to work that one judge says. now i don't trust all those scientists. i want things done my way so is that decision if the texas judge decision had been allowed to stand, there's or if it is allowed to stand in the future. there is real concern. the pharmaceutical companies are going to say wait a second. why should we be investing millions of dollars in
8:01 pm
trying to get fda approval when a single judge can just flip that around that would impact their desire to try to, you know, research and do get more life saving drugs on the market , and that would affect all of us, erica. so when we look at this 22 of the justice who just this is who dissented here. justice thomas and justice alito . justice alito actually actually said why? what did we hear from justice? alito? jessica yes. so interestingly, the two justices justice thomas justice alito. they're the only ones who dissented. but because of the way the order of structured here we don't know exactly how the other seven voted. only that five definitely did side with the fda. so justice alito wrote that four page dissent. he talked about really two things. he talked about how the supreme court has previously been criticized for these kinds of stays. he also tried to argue that there would be no harm if the restrictions went into effect, um, saying that, at present applicants are not entitled to a stay because they have not shown that they are likely to suffer irreparable harm in the interim, but what's
8:02 pm
really interesting here is that the fda did argue that there would be major harm. if these restrictions went into effect, they said women wouldn't be able to fully access the drug. there'd be chaos because of their be confusion about the way it was administered. justice leaders disputed that that would happen and then even said that the fda could just choose not to enforce these restrictions. he put it this way, he said. the government the biden administration, the fda has not dispelled legitimate doubts that it would even obey an unfavorable order in these cases , much less than it would choose to take enforcement action to which it is strong objections. so erica in this four page dissent, it was very fiery from justice alito he dissented very forcefully. justice thomas just assented, but with no writing so very forceful. but, of course, a majority of the court, giving the fda and the biden administration what it wanted here tonight. elizabeth as we look at all of this, so this specifically was targeting the kristen it's one of two abortion medication drugs, which are
8:03 pm
often prescribed together. is there a concern at all or discussion, even within the medical community? about coming after that other drug. you know, there are concerns that people the conservatives who don't like certain drugs, maybe because, for example, they used embryonic stem cells you know, way back in the day when they were developed that conservatives might say, hey, we went after medford priced stone. let's go after all these other drugs, too, so sure that conservatives could say, you know, we had some success with medford preston. we got some good rulings at a certain point. let's try my supposed to which is the other drug. so yes, there is concern that if there is victor three. if the conservatives who you know where the places in this case had victory that they might go on to attack other drugs as well and try to get those off the market and just confirming to elizabeth, where folks watching at home. what this does essentially is, this does not change. uh what medical care providers what g y n can do?
8:04 pm
this is it was exactly the same as it was this morning is where we're at tonight. that is true, but there's one thing i want to say if you live in a state where abortion is illegal, you couldn't get medford, kristen anyhow, so doctors in your state wouldn't prescribe medford, kristen to you anyhow, so none of this really matters to you. you couldn't get it, you know, a month ago, and you can't get it now, if you're in the state that allows abortion, you could get the price down. you know, before and you can get it now. elizabeth cohen. jessica schneider. appreciate it, as always, thank you. let's bring our panel now journalist and founder of the up and up. rachel grandfather's a cnn senior political analyst, john avlon, former congressman max rosen, former federal prosecutor, k teachers haski, as well as cnn political commentator kristen soltis anderson. good to see all of you tonight. so katie, let's pick up. if we could there. i was really struck by and just laid out so well. the comments in that dissent from justice alito does that tell you anything about what it could
8:05 pm
look like, if and likely when this ends up back in front of the justices, well, it's a very interesting decision by the court. but it's really not in my mind inconsistent with the way that they've looked at fda authority in the past, and as many people have pointed out, the supreme court has specifically said that they would defer to the fda in making decisions about when medication is approved, and the conditions under which it is dispensed. so in many ways, this opinion is very consistent with that history, and it also does how the supreme court to stay out of the abortion business to a great extent. like they said they wanted to do when they overturned roe. so in my mind legally speaking the decision, maybe it telegraphs what they'll do when the case comes up because it inevitably will come up once the fifth circuit rules on it, but in terms of what that decision might be, i mean, the court has said that they do differ to the agency's just opinions on these medical matters, so i'm optimistic in that sense. you feel it'll stay that way. max. is there any
8:06 pm
concern there has been you know, we were talking last hour about really the way we've seen the democratic messaging ramp up. certainly in the wake of jobs, but really, just in the last couple of weeks. mustard that messaging led by vice president harris, who's really been put out there, you know, as a surrogate on this topic, absolutely look, it's a winning issue for the democratic party. it is very clear that even amidst economic trends that are against the party and even with president biden, not always having the most ideal polling numbers so long as i'm glad you find that funny so long as this issue is at the forefront, democrats believe that they have a fighting chance in elections. but what is shocking amidst all of this, because that's very clear fact what i just said. it's the fact that the republican party continues to talk about this issue and continues to push extremist policies, particularly at the state level. i think that is because their base is actually massively different than the majority of voters and that fact
8:07 pm
and that fact alone maybe why the republican party is on the way towards much more of a permanent minority status. i bet you'd love to respond to that because i know you're also looking at this is breathing a little bit of a sigh of relief tonight. well for many republicans, they are not interested in the supreme court being viewed as a political football as a political entity is an arm of the republican party. the supreme court doesn't want to be viewed that way. and so this ruling is pretty consistent with that, with the sort of depoliticizing of the court of saying, let's just let the process play out. let's preserve the status quo for now and see how this goes, um, when it comes to the politics of this issue, the challenge that republicans have been faced with is that prior to the overturning of roe versus wade, if you asked americans, for instance, since. do you think that abortion is morally acceptable or unacceptable? an awful lot of americans say they're not really comfortable with abortion. they don't like it. they don't celebrate it, but at the same time would say, but let's allow row versus wade to stand the falling of rope. put that as the
8:08 pm
central questions so when somebody is thinking about my pro life or pro choice that question of do i like abortion or not? do you think it's ok is less central to how they're thinking about that question. now they're thinking, what do i think about the overturning of roe versus raid and these limits that may be going further than they were comfortable with on abortion throughout their states. that's why the politics of this have changed so dramatically and against republicans at the ballot box. rachel when you look at this, right, so you're talking to young people as you're reporting on all these things. what are we missing from the conversation when we talk about what the conversation is right now? what is it among people your age? you asking that? and i think you know young women. the young woman. i speak with their really scared because they don't know with with whether this is going to be the last thing or the next thing that's going to come. and so this is the first generation in 50 years that's growing up without the federally protected right to an abortion and for students, especially on college campuses, that's really daunting when they're grappling with what that means for on campus sex life. these are day to day.
8:09 pm
decisions that young people in states for abortion have has been banned or making about. you know what? what they're doing with their bodies and what is what they're comfortable doing, and that's now a decision that isn't necessarily in their own hands because lawmakers have stepped in and said that you know, should something should you have an unexpected pregnancy or unwanted pregnancy, like that decision is not going to be up to you. so i think you know, you really have to think about on the day to day what this means for young people's lives and the way that they can interact with their peers and in in it. it's just very different than the way our parents grew up. and john is you're looking at this in the in the broader scope. we talked about how important this is going to be moving into 2024. we saw how important was in 2022. what are you watching for? when it comes to these conversations, i'm always want to pay attention. what independence what moderates are doing? but i think you know max touched on this. this is an issue where, um, you know, the super majority of americans had a broad, if uneasy consensus right that clinic tony in formation of
8:10 pm
safe, legal and rare. you had around 15% of americans wanted a constitutional ban on abortion. 15% there said there shouldn't be any restrictions. but most folks were in the middle overturning roe. that unprecedented step all of a sudden makes republicans they look like a party that is about big government. they look like a party. that's uh, hostile to individual freedom, or at least self determination within these . these are the common sense structures that people had. and so i'm fascinated republicans are preoccupied by, you know, they got this generational win something that activists have been pushing for within their party without public support. and now a lot of them are afraid to talk about it. they don't want to because they think it's bad politically, while other folks that party wanted even more maximalist position, which they denied, was ever their case when they were trying to overturn roe desantis. i wonder to katie. as you look at all of this, even from a legal perspective, is there a more fulsome discussion? where we are now, almost a year after jobs about why and when women actually have abortions, even
8:11 pm
when it comes to medford, kristen, right, we've talked so much about it. what's important to note, too, is that it is used in miscarriages because when a woman miss carries her body cannot always finish what needs to happen. and so this medication actually makes it easier for a woman. sure the realities of what it means and why a woman and perhaps along with her partner, and or perhaps even her, you know her if she's a person of faith than than her faith leader, why they make these decisions has that conversation changed. well i think what strikes me the most about this ruling from the court is really what it does to put the fda in complete control in my mind over the approval and the dissemination of these drugs at any level, because at the end of the day, the court really did mean that they did not want to be involved in the abortion business. and by this ruling, in my mind, the fda is a political entity. and so the volatility of this issue is not going to change. it's going to keep going back and forth. at extreme
8:12 pm
levels, and the supreme court just does not want to be involved with it. and really, if there's going to be a challenge to an action of a federal agency, the court cannot get involved unless it's shown to be arbitrary and compressions and so whether they interpret the fifth circuit's ruling in that regard is really going to be the big question here because ultimately they can differ back and say we defer to the federal agency and whatever administration is in power at that point might dictate what that federal agencies decisions truly are, so it really is quite significant what the court has done here in my mind in putting the power really back into the political process and outside of the court's hands in many regards can the court stay a political at this point? is there anything about the courts that are a political no. courts courts have never been political . i mean, excuse me. they've always been political. but i do think that what we're seeing with the current supreme court is chief justice roberts making an attempt to show that they are
8:13 pm
above the fray, and we've seen that as the trend ever since they made their ruling on obamacare now what the challenge was, from his perspective with the dobbs decision. was that that really tilted in the other direction, and i think now we're seeing a consistent effort to try to make some attempt to move it back in that direction that you just said. but the issue of abortion and the issue of rights in this country and the issue of a woman's right to make her own health care decisions will remain the most poignant and significant political issue. i believe for years to come, kristen, we saw you know you were saying in our last hour. some republicans have been caught flat footed when they're asked specific questions over the last several weeks about abortion. i know tim scott is definitely one of those. what is this change in terms of messaging, if anything in terms of a united message for republicans. a lot of republicans for a long time.
8:14 pm
we're able to say look, i believe that life begins prior to win abortionist currently allowed. i think that roe versus rick wade is was a poorly decided decision. but it is the law of the land, and so we'll do what we can to protect life by, uh, you know, creating, creating a situation where there are fewer abortions for other reasons. maybe there you know we met offer. we create a culture that celebrates life and encourages people to celebrate parenthood that is now gone. and now you can no longer say well, i'm just going to defer to row. i don't like it, but it's there. now everything is on the playing field. and so you had, for instance, somebody like ron desantis. who could say hey, i ran in florida on a 15 week abortion ban and i didn't get punished for it. actually you can pass a law like that, and it's fine. but there's a very different conversation. when you're talking about a six week ban. it's a really going to put that to test both in a general election context and in a republican primary is that actually where a majority of republicans want their part? ready to go. we will be watching

8:20 pm
give you a sense. must've this is something that could be in a classroom right along with. i guess the rules of you know, be kind. and don't forget to return your library books and clean up after yourself. i have to say when i first saw this. my first thought was which i imagine a lot of people was. hey we have this little thing called separation of church and state. did it all. just go away when you took an oath to the constitution at one point several times through this next , they're going to put up signs, no jews, muslims, atheists allowed. i mean, this is this is absurd. i'm a amazed at past of no legal scholar, but i can't imagine that this eventually would not get overturned in the court of law, but again. i go back to the politics of this and the point that you made earlier about this. this majority that does exist in this country that is moderate and sensible. and that is not this. and so what we see yet again, it is this extremist republican base that is dominating some state legislators and putting stuff.
8:21 pm
like this out there. and that's not politics that wins national elections by any sense of the word. it's also one of the things that struck me is that it's the 10 commandments, right? it's not the 10 commandments and what is it? the five principles of buddhism. i'm probably getting that wrong, but it's not . it's not saying because there is something really wonderful about teaching kids about all these different faith that exist in the world, and that that's not happening. this is specifically judeo christian, right old testament and some of the stuff, even one of the lawmakers argued there's a baptist leader who said i was opposed to the bill by saying, telling the washington post i should have had the right to introduce my daughter to the concepts of adultery and covered when one spouse it shouldn't be one of the first things she learns to read. in her kindergarten classroom. i'm always trying to introduce my daughter to the concept of adultery. i think this is an important thing for any father. national tv is facially unconstitutional, according to
8:22 pm
the current jurisprudence at the supreme court, there is a case in 1980 cold stone versus graham . that was about kentucky, making it this exact same order. you must put a 10 commandments up on every schoolhouse wall and you can't do it because there's a test from 1971 in the lemon versus kurtzman case where they say if it has. if you do something like this, it has to have a secular purpose. it has to have your test right, like let's have some other codes of conduct here. let's have robert rules of voter who knows, but let's have a context of this and teach it. i sounds great to me. um there isn't any other context for this, and also the other part of the test. is it expressly proselytizing or stating that this one religion is the source of the moral code that's in governor? abbott's quotes he's out there saying, like we need to do this to restore morals in our state and our society and this is a good beginning. that's not going to pass muster when this goes to court to your point to when we look at when we look at independence when we look at moderates there is i mean, this
8:23 pm
is supposed to be a country of freedoms right? there are a number of people who are not just independents and moderates, right? but a number of people who would say freedom of religion also means you have freedom from religion. that's why it was founded. so the government couldn't say to you. this is what you have to believe . are they right there? absolutely right. to the extent that the founders were very clear on the fact that there was no point to be no state sanctioned faith. right this wasn't just james madison talked about the separation of church and state. this is something that george washington believe very deeply. but that didn't mean you wanted to run faith entirely out of the public square, right? i mean faith was a fundamental financial building block in terms of creating moral people in the democratic republic. but this so obviously is matt points out crosses the line mandating it in public schools, every public school classroom. it's obviously a play to the base move. it's a bit of a dare. but the fact that you can't say for sure that the supreme court wouldn't find a way to rationalize it. it's a
8:24 pm
big question that that's that's the underlying issue. it is a great moral document, but you can't exclusively have one religions, articles of faith mandate in every classroom. i don't want to put you on the hook for all young people, because that's not fair to you, obviously, but i do wonder as your in your reporting. as you're talking to people. how important is a public discussion of faith? so i think that it's really important that young people have the ability to talk about whatever they want to talk about, and that's something that when i'm talking with young people who are current students, they don't want to be told what they cannot say. they also don't want to be told what they should say or what they should be taught or seen. i mean, just if you look at this at a national level today in florida, where the government has made it very clear what they want out of the classroom, there were students led you slide walkouts at over 300 high school and college. emphasis um, it was called the walkout to learn, and this is just one example of young people pushing back against the florida republicans going in and saying,
8:25 pm
you know, the bill dubbed the don't say, gay bill, what you can and cannot say in the classroom, and young people are responding to that very fiery and passionately. and so i think with this texas example when it comes to the politics of this young people are gonna have a field day because this just riles up young people who don't want to be told what they can and cannot see in their classrooms. and they they're then going to demonstrate their going to march. and you know, i wouldn't be surprised if this also picks up attention across the country to kristen. how do you see this? playing out? ultimately? well, texas is one of those states that is reliably republican, and democrats have been looking at it for a long time, hoping that they can flip it blue or at least kind of purplish, and i think it's important to point out that on the one hand you've had moments like, for instance, recall wendy davis in the texas legislature. she did that she did that filibuster in opposition to abortion legislation. and that was something that you know, folks said at the time. well, gosh, this is the moment when
8:26 pm
all of a sudden people are going to realize texas has gone too far to the right and there's going to be backlash. and there wasn't the same time very slowly. texas has been creeping. it's not purple. maybe magenta right now, if you look at like the 2008 election, texas broke for john mccain by 12 points only broke for dui six last time around, so we'll watch it closely. appreciate it from all of you. if you've been paying attention, what's happened in the news this week? stay tuned. you might win the quiz. good morning. everyone so glad you could join us. joining us now are two lawmakers from m differt sides of the aislele. people are hyper focused on two issues, inflation and crime. violent crime is up, governor. you can't deny that. i understand that. but let's talk about real answers. even when you disagree with people. if you stand for something, they have great appreciation for that. every reporter in washington wants to know. are you going to extend the debt ceiling? that's a very monday at six eastern there. and

8:31 pm
the national conversations will bring you this lively discussion first every friday night. so here's over time with bill maher. okay. welcome. hi cnn. i know i'm dressed a little strange, but we were doing a sketch at the end of our show. you'll have to watch it. okay we have psychotherapist and best selling author astaire paralysis over here. we have brown university professor and host glenn show podcast glenn lowry and we have the coast of the foreign affairs podcast american christine daniel biscuit. okay? oh what does the paddle make of scotus is that's a supreme court ruling today preserving access to birth control pills? yes that happened just before we went on the air. so that's the birth control pill that that one judge in texas i don't know how that works. i don't think i ever will said okay, i'm a judge in texas. the whole country can't have birth control pills. and i went
8:32 pm
to the supreme court, and i guess they throw it back to the lower court. i understand clarence thomas and alito. dissented. okay and said no, no birth controls for you. what are your thoughts? well, they made the right call. clarence thomas made the wrong call. i have to say so. in this case, i am not privy to the opinions, but, um, i think a single judge overruling national regulation in that way is not the way you want to run a railroad. so what are your thoughts as a sex therapist on the pill that people take to not have a baby? it is problematic to bring politics into a conversation that should happen between a woman and her physician of which nothing about. all right. for that answer. you've earned a bonus question. this is forever.
8:33 pm
is there such a thing as a soul mate? so the interesting thing about soulmate is that for all of history, it meant god. the one and only today people wouldn't like sillier. yes people that had a great meaning , but to turn our partner into a soulmate to demand from our partner, the very things that we used to expect from religion, transcendence, meaning ecstasy wholeness. that is a whole new order that has never been part of what committed to marriage, committed relationships and marriage ever was about. interesting boys. boys of sense to me. yeah. okay should we consider the space x rocket launch a success or a failure? what does it say about the state of american innovation? i think it's a success. the fact that it
8:34 pm
failed is part of the process. the fact that there was nobody on board. yeah i mean, you gotta break some rockets to make an omelet. it's never going to work the first time. i mean to me if we're trying to get space travel, why are we relying solely on private corporations to do so? i think historically speaking, the nation this nation has made its graded and greatest advancements in technology when we pulled resources together, and there's some form of central planning, i think this is something that we truly decide democratically that we want, and that's how we should do. we want it. i mean, i don't see the reason necessarily. i don't either. i mean, i'm a musk fan generally, although he sometimes makes it hard time private company. if they can't make a go of it, they'll go bankrupt. if they can make a go of it and make money from it, then they'll make money from it. i mean, you know yeah, i just i don't. i
8:35 pm
mean, he's being a guest on our show next week, by the way, ellen yeah, i'm very excited. and i want to talk to him. never been on that page of why we should go to mars. i mean, however bad we ruined the earth . it cannot be worse than a place that has no air is 200 degrees below zero and a long way away and has six months dust storms and you have to live underground and there's radiation of wanting to do something as audacious and remarkable. is that an expression of the human spirit? why shouldn't we celebrate that from from another perspective, though, you might see as a rejection of humanity. if even i'm no big fan of robber barons, but at least they would do things like pay for operas pay for museums. it seems like this generation of oligarchs just wants to escape earth. or live forever, which i think is a pretty grim put the bacon i mean, he would say he wants to escape her through a very good reason. that is altruistic that because he thinks this planet is probably going to be i can't say
8:36 pm
the word but rat screwed. cnn i clean it up. you see, um and we need this other planet to go to, but i feel like if we if it gets that bad on earth, i mean, i think it's done then. right but one thing i do agree with ellen on is i hope i hope we'll talk about it next week also is a i being a threat. i mean, he and 1000 scientists and important people signed a letter a couple of weeks ago that said, we should put a pause. on a i and this week. i see there's a collaboration between drake and the weekend that is not real. a i did it and it looks like you can complete put the incomplete music business out of business. because you don't need them anymore. so anyone who thinks i think that this ai thing isn't moving way too fast for us to deal with. i think he's kidding themselves, and i think he's
8:37 pm
right. we should. but in this situation who is the we who would be able to make that determination? i feel like you have to get some sleep. you work for the government all night. that's what i'm saying. something you don't want the government to get involved government government. yeah i think i don't know who else can happen about it in class. i tell my students. i know you're writing your papers with chad. gpt guess what? i'm grading them with jets. that's hysterical. okay is the future of democracy truly at stake in the us as some content? is there really an emerging fascist movement? well, yeah. don't you watch the news? come on. you're watching cnn. there is but no. all right. next question. i would disagree about identifying it specifically as fascist. even though there is a far right authoritarian movement . i don't think it meaningfully
8:38 pm
mirrors the fastest movements of italy or germany in the twenties and the thirties, and i don't know it's a particularly mobilizing thing to do. but i appreciate the tenor of the question, and i agree with it. mean fascism was fascism. we shouldn't throw words around casually exactly word that democracy. people do throw that word around very casually. but there's never any like specific definition of it that i know of. i'm sorry. go ahead. think that if you're going to go back to compare the italy germany they were it took one year for it to go from a notary terrian situation to a more fascistic situation, and you know it when you start to experience it, because society in which there is a constant polarization, no complex issues can actually hold their polarities and it becomes an either or you or me right or wrong. black and white. that system of culture. read this. preach sister. okay what is the
