12:02 pm
beginning by big ben. the final day the queen is lying in state there at the state funeral. that will be tomorrow, with state leaders and dignitaries from around the world attending the funeral there. after ten days, of course, of mourning. we want to bring in nbc's former editor, tim york. both in london for us. and lindsey, let me start with you, as we just marked that moment, that minute of silence for the queen there. talk to me about what we heard from america's president, president biden, paying his respects earlier today ahead of the state funeral tomorrow. >> before we get to that, i saw somebody walking along the queue here, filing behind us. reminding people, the moment of silence at 8:00 local time, to make sure everybody did pay their respects. and actually, a muffler is being used with big ben, to
12:03 pm
create a quieter tone. you have mentioned, president biden and the first lady are visiting and paying their respects. also signing a condolence book at lancaster house, and we do know some of what the president wrote. he wrote in part, she treated everybody with dignity and respect. jill and i were honored to have met her and felt her warmth. and the president, of course, one of 500 dignitaries and families attending a state funeral tomorrow. tonight, a reception at buckingham palace with king charles hosting heads of state. we know, for example, the princess of whales is meeting with the first lady of ukraine. so a lot of diplomatic meetings happening here this evening, looking ahead to the state funeral tomorrow. this is all happening while that queue is still going strong. no word yet on when you're going to stop letting people into the queue to see her majesty lying in state. we know that it's several hours long, several miles away from where we are in fact. but this is very important for
12:04 pm
people to be able to come and pay their respects in person, be a part of this moment of silence here in person. and we know that this queue has also been somewhat tiresome for some people. we've got upwards of 1000 people who have needed some kind of medical attention. nearly 100 who have needed to be hospitalized. we have seen people young and old do this. some waiting all night, with their coats and very chilly weather, in fact. and there are police on hand to help people. 10,000 officers, in fact, being a part of this funeral. it is the procession surrounding the state funeral, as, well including 3004 out of town. to give you 90 of what is might happen tomorrow, we are going to see a procession, including the royal family, leading her majesty's coffin from westminster hall to westminster abby. we are going to see a state funeral that is about an hour long, and then her majesty's coffin is going to head to windsor castle. there's going to be a committal service at st. georges palace, and the burial will be private
12:05 pm
and not televised. yasmin? >> talk to me about the relationships the queen had. it is so significant to see all these world leaders showing up to pay their respects, meeting with king charles and wanting to attend the funeral tomorrow. really cementing how significant and how important the relationships were that she created. >> it's been an extraordinary reign, if you look back on it. 17 years, it would be impossible to list all the world leaders and dignitaries that she has met. but i was particularly struck today. we heard an interview with the queen consort, camilla, talking about the late queen. and she made the point, which i think is a good one, that when the queen ascended to the
12:06 pm
throne in her mid twenties, she was very much a woman in a man's world. and there was really no precedent for that. and the steps that she has taken since then in what remained, for a long time, a male dominated world, i think have been quite impressive. there is one statistic that when she took to the throne, there were 20,000 women in universities in this country. now there are nearly 1.6 million. so that gives you an idea of how times have changed. and the vast number of people that she has met over those years. >> what will you be watching for, tim, tomorrow? >> well, we heard today from the former archbishop of york, who was very close to the queen. in fact, he did a lot of the planning for this funeral with the queen. and her instructions to him were, i don't want it to be long, and i don't want to be
12:07 pm
boring. and she asked for it to be a glorious occasion. as he said, there will be prayers in english and there will be angelic choirs. and i think of all the things that will move people, it will be the choirs. and it will be the lone piper, the queen's personal piper, who played outside her bedroom every morning, wherever she was, to wake her up. that will be the last sound that we hear in this whole process. >> hey, lindsey, i know you've been there for the last ten days or so, really, since you first learned of the queen's death. over that time, what has stood out to you? what moment has stood out to you, in what you saw take place? >> i think, yasmin, it's hard to help people understand how many people are taking part. and yes, we talk about numbers, we talk about 22 miles of crowd barriers. but actually seeing the crowds in person, being in parliament square, not even being able to cross the road, just everybody
12:08 pm
walking like this because so many people just want to watch. watch what? sometimes, you can see a vehicle carrying a royal coming out. maybe you can see a head of state. that's part of it, being outside buckingham palace. the entire crowd would give and applause, and it is one of those funny things that in such a somber period of mourning here, it is a collective time for people to feel like they are together, and also, yasmin, i will say interviewing people, how people are driven to tears over their love for their queen. that has stood up to me. >> yeah, and that has certainly come through many of those interviews that we have aired. thank you. by the way, quick programming note, everybody. tomorrow, we are live from
12:09 pm
london to lead special coverage in remembrance of queen elizabeth ii as she is laid to rest. watch msnbc coverage of the funeral of the queen tomorrow, beginning at 5 am eastern, right here on msnbc. we've got much more ahead this hour. [inaudible] >> you are blocking a member of congress. >> an activist who claimed she was kicked by marjorie taylor greene outside the capitol joins me later on this hour. plus i will speak to former impeachment manager, madeleine dean, but the ongoing legal saga between trump and the doj over classified documents. but first, we have a live look from puerto rico, as hurricane fiona battered the caribbean and causes complete belt blackouts. we'll be right back.

12:20 pm
be a consequential day in the fight over the special master review of the classified documents from trump's residence. the court of appeals is giving the former presidents legal team until noon on tuesday to respond to the doj's petition to resume the use was classified materials for investigative purposes. which, by the, way is the same day the newly appointed special master judge has scheduled his first hearing. for more on this, we want to bring in -- so let's talk through some of this. tuesday is going to be major. you've got two simultaneous things happening. we are obviously going to be watching special master's stuff, along with the circus. so let's talk about -- what can we expect to hear from the former president attorneys there, with the deadline now imposed of noon that day?
12:21 pm
>> i think you are going to expect to see them continue the argument that this special master should be in place to check all the documents, whether classified or not. for what they claim is executive privilege. none of those things are a place-able to any of the documents, much lattice -- i certainly couldn't preemie judge what they will say, but the issues here really aren't that -- >> and then what are you expecting a happening in judge near ease court? the now appointed special master? >> both signs are going to file their layout with what the agenda should be for the special master. they have a touching of the
12:22 pm
gloves with the special master. and kind of set the rules. >> so, the guardian has a great piece, an analysis on what we have been seeing play out, especially when we look at the rulings of judge aileen cannon in favor of the former president and his team. the title of it kind of says it, which a special master ruling showing trump's takeover of courts has started to sting. in it, they write this. in 14-year term, he slim through about 30% of the entire u.s. federal judiciary. last week, this significance of trump's hyper aggressive re-modeling of the federal bench lurched into view. what do you make of this? >> well, remember, one elections have consequences. and politicians say that a lot, there is nowhere that has been more visible for the last five years than the federal judiciary. the focus of former president
12:23 pm
trump and senate minority leader -- these judges were favorable to trump and favorable to the republicans in place. still, some of these judges, one of them looked at by the legal community in terms of outliers. and the credentials behind their ideological -- before this last case, he has basically decided to appoint a special master for executive privilege. and has also with the classified material, done the same thing. i don't think is anybody, any judge in the nine states, that would say the former president has people to take the documents. we are in novel legal territory. >> here's a thing, the, why should we be looking at the 11th circuit of any differently? considering the makeup of the
12:24 pm
11th circuit, the doj is still wanting to raise the appeal to them. folks that i've been speaking to feel confident in their case, in their appeal case to the 11th circuit. but again, they were confident when it came to a possible ruling from judge cannon, who ruled in former presidents favor. >> yeah, again, i wouldn't prejudge with the 11th circuit is going to do. you are looking at a panel there that contains multiple judges and they might do something we have seen. and the supreme court sometimes opposes former president trump, including justices who he appointed. so that's a little higher level. people who get to that level have been vetted more generally speaking. not to prejudge, but i don't think we know what they are going to do. >> yeah, we definitely don't. but we'll be watching. john finale, great to talk to
12:25 pm
you, thank you. we want to talk to congresswoman madeleine dean, who served as -- thanks for joining us, we appreciate it, it's good to see you on this sunday afternoon. >> thank you for inviting me. >> yeah, of course. i actually want to reach a quote i read to john finale. and it's titled this. special master ruling shows the takeover of courts has started to sing. in 14-year term, he slammed through 40% of the entire u.s. judiciary. the -- i wonder if we can apply this to some of the rulings we have heard from judge cannon, going into that. a lot of folks are telling me they felt as if he was going to rule in terms of -- that is not where we are having to appeal to the 11th circuit. what do you make of judge's --
12:26 pm
>> i haven't read it, thank you for reading those top lines. but it's something we have watched over the course of the last five years. the president promised his inaugural address american carnage. he was previewing for us what he was going to do it every single a level. to your point, and the judicial level, he put in trump plus judges. those who would not adhere to the rule of law. those who were politically biased. many of them, not all of them. i don't want to whitewash the whole thing. but this ruling has become so obvious, this was a late trump appointment. and it was a late request for a special master. we know what donald trump does, he doesn't believe in the rule of law, he never adhered to his oath of office. he stole documents from the white house, he knew he had them, he lied about having them. many try to cover them up.
12:27 pm
and then the department of justice did the right thing in order to try to protect national security, to get those presidential documents back. so it is sad and cynical that we are stuck with so many of these trump appointed justices, who really do not revere the rule of law. and instead, have a political lens. >> are you worried at all about the appeals process being raised in the 11th circuit? >> i don't, for this reason. i call upon all those judges to do their duty and abide by their oath. we saw that many of the trump appointed judges wrote eloquent opinions, showing that mr. trump had no fraud that would change the outcome of the election. there are very wise trump appointed jurist to know right
12:28 pm
from wrong. they understand the grift that this former president has been a part of throughout his entire career. but sadly, at the expense of our democracy. >> so, the department of justice has been consistent in raising red flags about the possible damage that is being done and this process is being drawn out. national security concerns, specifically, and they say that in reaction to the judge's ruling, there is direct implications for national security. what is your reaction to that? >> i've been worried about that all along. i'm very worried about the department of justice. if you take a look at the affidavit that is a predicate for getting that legal search warrant to go into mar-a-lago, you can see on what the department of justice was worried about, based on what they had collected in january
12:29 pm
of this year. top secret documents, so they went in, they collected many more top secret documents, and other classified or unclassified presidential records which never should have been at mar-a-lago for one day. and national security is certainly one of the top things that folks worry about. documents that were taken as they have said, and we don't know the details of it, nor do i think we should, frankly. included in them was the nuclear posture of another country. i don't know if it's a friend. that is doggone scary. what was the former president intending to do? just a set of corruption's, a set of indecencies. and you see so many other political candidates who would be leaders, or republican governors imitating his corruption, his cynicism, his cruelty to americans, to foreigners, and to the rule of law. >> congresswoman, i want to
12:30 pm
switch gears here a little bit as we look ahead to the midterms. two major things going on right now, we are taking a look at abortion rights in this country. obviously, it seems like a rallying cry for democrats. there is also a political play happening when it comes to immigration concerns in this country, as well. let's talk first about abortion. we have a new nbc poll out with 37% of folks polled that are approving of the decision, versus 61%. i know you feel conch strongly about this issue, you are one of the individuals arrested after the decision was issued by the supreme court. what do you make of this moment for democrats heading towards the midterm elections and seizing on this opportunity to use as a rallying cry to get folks to the polls? >> well, i have to admit you, i got into some trouble, including an arrest in front of the supreme court. to lift up the horror that is
12:31 pm
the decision. i have three sons, but i have three daughters in law, and a grand son and instantly with the decision, a really corrupt majority on the supreme court, they have tried to relegate women and girls to second-class citizens. i have to tell you, i am at the third campaign event today going to the third one this evening. people in my congressional district of berks county,, women, girls, children. they are fired up. they are not going to take this. we are not going back, we will continue to make private health care choices so that candidates like doug mastriano, who was running in pennsylvania, republican candidates for governor, who participated in the insurrection. he doesn't believe in women's rights to privacy in her own personal health care choices.
12:32 pm
doctor mehmet on us, he will be our next governor. running here in pennsylvania, everybody knows he -- he is running here as a trumpster, and now he is trying to back away from being a trumpster. pencil vein ye won't put up with. it those two will protect our rights. but it is equally important, as every stop i have made today, abortion is the number one issue. registration here in -- it's way out among all people, but really up among women. some women who have never participated in the political process before coming up to me and saying, i am registered, i'm canvassing, i am knocking on doors. they are not going to get away with this. >> i also want to talk quickly about immigration, as well. whatever side of the aisle you are on, the immigration system
12:33 pm
in this country is broken and it's been broken for decades. you look at what is happening from -- from busing these people with their young children to places like new york city and boston, and martha's vineyard. especially not having the resources in place to handle this influx of people. being promised things that are just not there. what do you make of it? and then, the big picture though, what is the solution? >> i will agree with your first point. we need a immigration reform for two reasons. to make sure that we honor those who will come to our shores and seek asylum with good cause. but also, we need an immigration reform because we need immigrants in this country. we need immigrants at every level of our economy. immigration makes our country
12:34 pm
stronger. so you are right about number one. the actions of the governors and both texas and florida are so un-american, literally on american. how about shipping venezuelans? 's shipping these folks to martha's vineyard without any notice, of course. not saying, excuse me, help me here. in fact, if i read it correctly, they move them to the state of florida, as a political ploy. using them like chattel. not thinking about them as human beings, seeking refuge and martha's vineyard as -- does he call the officials to say i need help? of course not. and of course, the grotesque bigotry. do they understand they were venezuelans? do they understand they are fleeing communism? this is political stunts.
12:35 pm
and i served on the judiciary, i wish we could come forward and pass immigration reform. we have lots of proposals. but since the republicans have love using this to scare people and use it as a cudgel to try to stay in power. it is cruel. people should reject these leaders, and never vote for them again. >> congressman madeleine dean, thank you so much. we appreciate it. new calls for accountability. a mouse grave was found in ukrainian territory previously occupied by russian forces. what would that could mean for the war as ukraine continues to succeed on the battlefield. >> new york congressional candidate will join us. we will discuss how republicans and their radical stance on abortions is changing elections in swing districts like his.

12:47 pm
she visibly kind of kicked you -- did you harm you at all? what did she say? >> i mean -- i'm not hurt. but she said, excuse me, excuse me. she repeatedly called santiago, our executive director a child abuse or. she called us paid activists, which were not. and she was incredibly rude to us. 70 over other congressional offices, we want to, no one was disrespectful to us. they took a seriously. they listen to what young people had to say. they wanted to pay attention to what we believe in, and marjorie taylor greene did not show us that same respect. >> so you brought the -- mayor, the group starter, and i know you've both been considering pressing charges. any update on that? >> we've been talking to our lawyers and keeping our options open. >> got it. okay. here's what marjorie taylor greene is actually saying. she is saying and called you a group, foolish cowards. and when it comes to santiago she said that she's a pay

political activists are just so happens to be blessed to have emigrated to our great country and he should be thankful for american freedoms. like our second amendment, instead of trying to destroy them, if he doesn't like it, he can go back. are you at all surprised by this statement, mariana? what is your reaction? >> i am incredibly disappointed that a member of congress is treating young americans this way. i'm also mexican american. my mom is a mexican immigrants. and that was very difficult for both santiago and i to have someone attack our right to be here, and for santiago, it was something very difficult because he's out here fighting for young voters with the rest of the voters of tomorrow team. and we are trying to get young people representation in congress, we're trying to get young people represented at every level of government, and marjorie taylor greene doesn't believe that that should be

first weekend of his heritage mansion for the next few weeks ring to be looking at hispanic voting power in four states that are key to the midterm elections. today we're focusing on the state of texas which has seen a really dramatic shift and its political landscape for the last couple years. we saw republicans making and roads with hispanic voters. the latest polling on the governors showing hispanic voters preferring democrats, better o'rourke by 18 points
12:54 pm
over greg abbott. up here, we're gonna talk more about the texas senior editor jack herrera. jack it's good to talk to you. i find this fascinating considering of course the popularity of the former president had in the 2020 election when it came to hispanic voters. when you're looking at that poll, it's pretty interesting that beto does in fact have that lead in the governor's race. i'm wondering when mexican american in the state of texas, what they are saying about abbott's kind of latest push. particularly his focus on kind of these cultural and social issues. >> yeah, that's a great question and i think that besides the fact that it sounds kind of garbage, right now, it's a good time to be asking that question because census data shows that just above a few days ago, we hispanics and latinos became the largest ethnic group in texas. we have the largest plurality of any of groups in texas outpacing white voters. so, that's gonna be very important issue in every election going forward. when it comes to what the
12:55 pm
community here thinks of abbott, i think it is important to remember, as i know that this show stress, voters are not a bottleneck. when you see mexican americans living on the border, some of abbott's crackdowns on immigration's, the emphasis and resources that they put towards it even if sometimes people can see through it as potentially -- rather than consequential policies, nonetheless people in a place like the del rio valley, they appreciate the attention from the governor on their communities and their issues and this willingness to talk about things that are good for them. and i think that it's a mixed bag and there's some people to do appreciate what abbott is doing, and others who see it as, you know and time aggression pr moves. >> well it is fascinating, right, because if you can look at the issue of immigration in the state of florida, it seems like hispanic voters, in florida, another they're completely different, a lot of cuban americans especially in miami, for instance, in south florida, they have a lot more
12:56 pm
concentration when it comes to immigration issues. but if you look at the issues that matter most to hispanic voters and especially mexican americans, in the state of texas, i mean, you've got inflation crime, jobs, health care, climate change, affordable housing. you do not even see immigration in this list of stuff. and i wonder if some of the efforts that the governor's been making when it comes to immigration, busing migrants, try different places, and using these individuals as political pawns. it's gonna come back to bite him? >> yeah. i think that that is such a great point. and it's one that i wish was stressed more often which is when you pull latinos nationally, constantly, for decades, immigration, as you saw on that last list, often it's not even in the top five of top issues. and i think in a community that is often stereotype is being single issues voters on immigration, i think that what that shows it is for republicans and democrats, if you want to win the latino vote,
12:57 pm
and over emphasis sentiment ration, in one way or the other, is not necessarily going to be your way to do that. i think that abbott is focused on these parts in texas that, the regions in texas, the counties, among latinos that shifted so far towards trump in the last election, were all aboard. and so i think that he's making the best that, if i double down on this immigration rhetoric, if i double down on my actions of sending state troopers to the border, national guard to the border, i can solidify my gains in those communities. the question is if that is gonna work in the first place. from the people i talked to, i could see it going either way. and then also, is that going to hurt me in places like san antonio or dallas, or houston? they have larger populations than are not on the border. >> yeah, i also wonder, and we do have to wrap up this conversation, as we've been at this for a while. but i wonder how much of uvalde in, the tragedy there, is playing into some of these numbers right now especially in the hispanic community and the
12:58 pm
makeup, if you look at uvalde and all of those children that were in fact the killed. and kind of the fallout, as a lack of response to that. jack herrera, thanks so much, we appreciate. all, right tonight on msnbc, model america, a four part series that details the fallout after black teenagers fatally shot by a white police officer in in 1919. >> i got a call from a liquor store owner in tina. she was a friend of mine. and he just called me up kind of screaming. and they said, there was a shooting. you know? >> tina believes they just saw somebody. they shot a young kid. they shot a black kid. >> and in teaneck, a white cop
12:59 pm
shot a black kid? >> i can't believe, it's not supposed to happen. >> i don't remember who, but someone said, they shot bill. i did not believe it. i did not think it was real. i did not think that it was something that could happen to one of us. >> the next thing i remember somebody else grabbing me and telling me, look, we need to go tell his mother. we need to contact his mother. i was like, i don't know how to get in contact with them. but i know where they live, take me to their house. worst ride ever. >> you can catch this powerful series starting tonight at 10 pm eastern right here on msnbc streaming on peacock as well. that wraps it up for me, everybody, i'm yasmin --
1:00 pm
i will be back in the chair during the week here on msnbc at 2 pm wednesday through friday. i will see there. you can also always catch me on the weekend, said it is in sundays a two to 4 pm eastern, right here on msnbc. simone starts right now. t now. >> good day! [laughs] i'm charles -- in for simone sanders, and coming up this hour, mounting pushback against republican government treating migrants like political pawns. good sitting migrants to other states against their will backfire both politically and legally? we're talking to a boston local about calls for a criminal investigation. and i will ask congressman dissenting consoles of texas what elective leaders should do to address a broken immigration system. plus, what is ahead this week in the legal battle between donald trump and the justice department over the mar-a-lago documents? and what one cop, democratic senator says that january 6th investigation could happen if the
