on the calendar. we have a sneak peek at the upcoming action. i'm ayman mckee dna, let's get started. it is the never ending october surprise. herschel walker's senate campaign continues to plunge ever deeper into turmoil. in 1:24 appeared alone, the walker campaign fired's political director, according to cnn, and then the new york times reporter reported that the same woman back in 2009 also lights that walker urged her to terminate second pregnancy two years later. herschel walker has denied it allegations that he has never paid or pressured a woman to have an abortion. the woman whose account first appeared has receipts. i mean literal receipts that

seemingly contradict walkers denial. you should know, msnbc's hasn't independently verify those documents. just for a second, look, if these allegations are true, walker's apoxsee is quite obvious. there's one rule for him, another for everyone else. but it is more than that. republicans response to this walker news illustrates a much deeper cancer that is been factoring the party. that is their religious hypocrisy. i want to pause here for a moment. look, we are not trying to demonize some of these actions as the right routinely test everyone else. be proportion isn't a problem unless you are forcing a woman to get an abortion. at the same time, the right routinely demonizes personal social issues in this country. you can condemn abortion in the lgbtq community, and then be surprised when the news media

focuses on gop candidates who talked the talk, but don't walk the black. that brings me back to herschel walker. despite all of the scandals that he has hissed, his christian fans have remained unfazed. one georgia pastor told politico that the dome is, do you bring a candid that is perfect or do you take what is given to you and make the choice between the options? my main did we forget that there is another option here? georgia's current senator, he is an actual reverend. he's a man who has studied and taught christianity quite literally preaching what these conservatives pretend to practice. still, herschel walker believes he has the higher moral ground in this race. >> dishonest campaign. perfect for washington. tell my full story, marchers

story. everyone knows i had a real battle with mental health. iv wrote a book about it. by the grace of god, i overcame it. doesn't have the truth, he doesn't believe in redemption. i'm herschel rock or. i prove this message. >> all right. let's just note here for second, that book, herschel walker just mentioned, the one about overcoming his statements by the grace of god, that came one year before walker lsu lee pay for alums abortion in 2009. the republicans -- are still choosing walker over raphael warnock for one reason and one reason alone. walker has an are next to his name. republicans branded themselves the arbiters of religion and morality in america. back in the 70s, christian wright labeled themselves the moral majority.

in the 1990s, they promoted the idea of a moral leadership. as well now and will well now, the morality arguments, that was seated when, excuse me, white evangelicals voted donald trump into the white house. that is why it's not surprising to see this support for walker or the continued support for ron desantis which is migrants with cruelty. to score political points. look, be religious, don't be religious. we're not making an argument about that. let's be clear. what we are seeing here is if you claim to be religious, if you literally claim to be holier than thou and yet you support liars, cheaters, abusers, people who are crawls others and people who do things that go against the tenants of your religion, that is the problem. don't hide behind religion to

defend your erroneous believes. don't have behead religion when you support one of the worst senate candidates in a generation. i wanted to it. then take a look in the mirror. let's discuss this with our saturday night correspondents for politico and msnbc contributor. a pollster and analyst and brittany cunningham is back with us. i'll start with you. first, i want to get your reaction to this new york times that walker pressured his girlfriend to have a second abortion, after she refused. alleges that walker is barely involved and his sons, i guess ten years old, son's life. >> ayman i'm shocked, absolutely shocked that there is such stark rip out -- you laid it out beautifully in

your opening. it is what it is. look, if we're honest here, the game was given away earlier this week when republican operatives a, look, i don't care if he asked for the abortion of sacred bald eagles that are on the endangers list, despite holding henry capturing a republican senate majority. is an interesting book and to what we've seen over the past couple of years. just like january 6th, which was an insurrection and attempted today tougher republicans, that was an inconvenient truth and the altar for they truly warship, which is power. when you also think about the great irony, eamonn, which is that the state of georgia has produced the most -- who has lived his fate more than any other, jimmy carter, former president who is a democrat, the fact that the evangelical christian movement gets behind this absolute fraud herschel walker said, late

doesn't surprise. it speaks to the gop is today. it is a party that worships one thing and one thing only and that is power. >> politico has reported that walker's team knew about the allegation months before it surfaced but hope that it would come out before the election. that does not seem like a solid political strategy now, does it? >> no. not now. it's come out over and over and it's been show after shoe that's trapped. it's gone from the daily beast to the record over the new york times. something, i'm in atlanta right now working on some stories. talking to people to figure out if this is something that most changes are both. i have mitch edge and by one person that says it changes their vote. what that tells us is that one, peoples minds are made up. four weeks away. partisanship, as you're saying, ayman, is above all else at

this point in our politics, right? it is having that are already behind him, are in this case. knowing that this one cc can give the power to republicans to keep joe biden from putting some us on the supreme court, that if that's something that came up over the next two years. these are the kinds of things that keep happening. i was sitting and hotel bar, which as you know is a great place for reporting. talking to an artist there. when the gentleman who signed who earlier had heard about the allegations. because that he was conservative. he and a religious man. but does that change your mind that he has allegations? and this abortion is. the man said, no, you talked about his wife. that's anecdotal. people are able to look past

discussing behavior when they know they might have the power to have more power in the city, and, house the white house, i think that's in the next change over the years in our politics. >> exhibit is donald trump, if you have time but what people are would overlook to have access to power. britney, i want to read to you but one georgia-based republican consultant told the washington post after these allegations surface. i'm going to vote herschel walker, i don't care if he performed an abortion himself. t.j.'s point, is in the supposed to be the pro-life party? >> of course, that is supposed to be the pro-life party. it's supposed to be the party of family values, but i think we have to be really clear. before january six, before donald trump, before ronald reagan even, the gop has for a long time been the party that espouses family values and then legislators everything and

anything but. i want to be clear here. not only am i a political progressive, i'm the daughter of a black baptist pastor theologian and black ordained baptist minister. when i'm clear about is that the greatest hypocrisy of the gop is not just exhibited herschel walker or donald trump, it's exhibited standing in the way a fits of mother and children. it standing in the way of the ability for queer children to have free and reduced lunch. a senate in the way of pay prettily bend affordable childcare. there are so many ways in which the gop has policies, your specter of the rhetoric, has policies that stand oppositional to who and what jesus stood for. we have to reckon with all of it at not just one particular candidate in georgia. if it's enough to think a candidate they would be barely any republicans and congress. but there are. we know we have to get beyond

calling out hypocrisy the moment and push voters to recognize that this is not going to be enough to stop him or to stop this party. the voters are going to have to get out and say enough is enough. not just because of how you behaved, but how you legislate. time is passed for the gop to continue to stand in the way of our rights. i guarantee you, that's not what jesus would do. >> let me play for you a few of the republicans condemning herschel walker had to say. listen to this. >> i think this is part of the donald trump hangover. we can never get this place again as republicans. this is a horrible place to be, not just in georgia, but another press of the country. that should be a layup present has in the senate. i think we should be tracking 2024 to be able to step up to the plate and put a president forward, our president nominate republican. we continue to deal with donald trump. >> brittani, to still think

that walker would be a candidate, if more republicans disavowed walker in the wake of these reports as we heard from lieutenant governor duncan? >> i think it's totally possible. here's what we have to recognize, there are a couple republicans who are willing to come out against someone like herschel walker, just the republicans willing to come out against somebody like donald trump. the core values of this party are still the same. those core values are ones that a road at the sole and morality of any individual or group of people no matter what you do or who's on the ticket. you can tell me that herschel walker is not the definition of the gop you can tell me that you're the more majority and christian right, but you can actually read the book and tommy that you still stand for that while that you build think should be built at the southern border and cheeses asked for us to clothe and feed and house the stranger. you can't tell me that you will

continuously push forward policies that will create and expand poverty when she's a said that the week should inherit the earth. again, the core values of this party have been clear very long time. irrespective of those on the ballot, this kind of corrosion was promised because of what they believe. >> brittany cunningham, thank you so much. it's always a pleasure to have you on. eugene, fernand stick around for. as we have more to discuss with you. as ivan, as rhonda sanchez, was, and he had a horrible week. going to tell you about that. first, richard louis is here. >> ayman, good evening to you. an explosion crippled a strategic bridge in crimea. kill you easter people. kremlin uses the bridges of major military supply line for its war efforts in ukraine. russian officials allege a car bomb caused the blast. no one has officially claimed responsibility. north korea suspected of firing war bliss tech missile on saturday. so straight officials say they

doing. forget the toilets, forget the immigration stance. forget not eating mat tickets. what that is going on in their lives. >> as democratic strategist james coming with me earlier this week an msnbc. let's be honest here, what desantis did not have a good week, by any stretch of the imagination. president biden visited hurricane ravaged parts of florida, desantis was not only overshadowed by the president, he was mocked online for these images that made him look less than presidential, i guess. ensure trump in fashion, like every child does, desantis lashed out. desantis told the founder of a right-wing news site that the national regime media wanted the tampa area to be hit hard by hurricane ian because it would advance their political

agenda. of course, there's no truth to that. does that just offered no evidence to back up his outrageous lie. also this week, we heard more about desantis cruel effort to ship -- new york times reports that members of the -- this according to, he appeared broken. i love, you are checked, he told his wife. weeping uncontrollably. this woman lie to us. she lied. joining me now is senator jason is a, silly ron desantis over his shipping right it's to brett's vineyard. senator, get every witness. those are coming on the show. let's first talk about your lawsuit and what you aim to get out of it. talk to me about why he won this lawsuit and where it stands today in the courts? >> thank you for having me, a man.

filed for injunctive relief. asking for the court recognized of the law is. it's a fresh law passed and this legislative session of you months ago. the irony is that the governor signed this very law and was his very simply as up to $12 million could be spent to remove unauthorized aliens from the state of florida. as you mentioned, more details emerge this week. we found out yesterday that florida transportation was tasked with this program. they created a drafted a docking of the program this is only on others aliens out of florida. when a 40 venezuelans for known florida. we filed a couple weeks ago. hopefully this coming week, we'll have our first management and a lawsuit. >> the new york times reported the beginning of the week and identified the woman had first known as perla who tricked the migrants into getting on those to satisfy its.

do you think this woman, perla, will be held accountable for her role in all of this? what else are democrats and you say doing in this lawsuit to stop the trafficking of the migrants away from desantis is doing? >> as mitt heard, there's a class action suit that is out of massachusetts on behalf of migrants. devin wonderful immigration attorney that was for hunter number times. in fact, that's a portion that relates to what the immigration status is the for the venezuelans. unauthorized alien portion of this, this one question that we're going to ask from a perspective. the others with the state. you know, legislature florida is overwhelmingly public and. or -- republican. order in the throes of a tight races. we're not even close to having any party.

really, i'm going as a private citizen. basically saying, your honor, this is the law that just passed recently. his flooding that law. even, when you read the law and you can't follow within a calendar year, it begs the question how frenetic is the paced who feel surveys that you spotted a law? >> recyclables that sweet and his preposterous claims. i want to shift back for a moment to the hurricane and its aftermath. certainly the political aftermath. your reaction to ron desantis saying that the news media wanted, literally saying wanted the state to be devastated by the hurricane? >> we have [inaudible] a mom east coast. we don't pair pray for peril to be on the west coast. it's absurd. what shameful is that we root for our leaders in times of

tragedy. i can see right outside my window the peach of miami. i was proud that the governor can really, that the president came last year. we don't root against our leaders when we have tragedy disaster, right for them. it's completely shameful. >> what are we seeing in the wake of hurricane ian? what do you think the people of new york state need the most? what do you think we in this country niche no gathered cover process that we can help amplify this evening? >> sure. the recovery is ongoing. i don't know if it's hypocrisy or irony, we saw reports of that is well it's getting in ads and binge of you from new york city to aid the cleanup. i would expect with all human decency ever in this together. that people continue to do what they do. there are many opportunities. red cross is amazing. governor has been pitching for disaster fund. it is a collective effort.

not a partisan effort. they irony is drugs of migrants coming down here to help the hurricanes cleanup. i wonder how scrupulous it will be over the next few weeks as they could have about peoples immigration status. >> how it plays out in a week. continue to wish florida -- as a result of this hurricane. saying shameful comments there by the governor. florida state senator, i greatly pre sheer tide. after the break, we're gonna preview what could be the january six committee's final public area. don't go anywhere. nywhere. as someone with hearing loss i know what a confusing and frustrating experience getting hearing aids can be. that's why i founded lively. affordable, high-quality hearing aids

you care about survival other public, then you need to understand, we all have to understand, that we can't have people brother told us they will not honor elections. elections are the foundation of our public. peaceful transfers of power at the foundation of our public. we must have elected officials and both parties who understand and honor that duty, that responsibility. >> by saturday night panel is back with me. ferdinand, i want to start with. you only be looking for as we go into this final hearing? what should the committee be messaging especially but the midterms around the corner? >> hey, at. i want to hear the other part of liz cheney's ellegood comments. yes you cannot give power to people who don't blame the sadie of officials and democracy. you also have to bring to

justice those that orchestrated an attempt to overthrow our government. it's not validate and recognize a legitimate reelection. i think what the colleague such an or six committee needs to do in these closing arguments is make the case to the american people trust eau claire. in a pre medic tainted conspiracy, donald trump, people around donald trump utilized a cult its reaction that wasn't force by or earth creepers and proud boys to and the democracy boundless cheney and her colleagues need to make it explicitly clear to the department of justice that one needs to be done next is to bring to justice those that did that. this could very well be, ahead put in these terms and sounds hyperbolic, i don't know, but if republicans capture either the house or the senate, we might well be signaling the

into democracy, but the beginning against their foes starting with the peach front of joe biden, which they said they're going to do if they went. >> i don't think it's hyperbolic all to say this might be the last democratic election in this country, if in fact you see some of these election deniers get their hands on believers of power. police shows these hearings barely made a difference on americans opinions about the capitol insurrection. would be accurate to say that at least on that front that they have not moved and that they have failed. to the spinal here in doing anything to change that? >> the thing that this committee was always up against was a year that republicans and the ecosystem with whitewashing what happened on january six. days after republicans and democrats moving away from donald trump and that changed. yet a party that spent a lot of

time telling american people that it wasn't that bad, they were unarmed people who they were. it wasn't that bad and i think what this committee has had to do is correct historic record and that has been the key to what they've been wanting to do this entire time, to tell the american people what happened on january 6th, what happened in the months before that. most importantly, a man, is that this is an ongoing threat to democracy that is not just about what happened in the last election, it's what's happening out of what could happen in 2022, what could happen in 2024. this might not have the nice little bow that a lot of democrats folks wanted to. probably going to see some legislative fixes that they want to send over to the house and senate leadership. mitch mcconnell has said a no

one's going to be arrested because they don't have the authority to do that. what they have done very well is they've been able to keep the politics out of it. despite the fact that this is largely about a party, having republicans come down and talk about what happened in those days in the months before that, our january 6th, keep the politics of. that we're not going to see many witnesses next week and they have significant information that we haven't seen before. see what they have going. on this is what's going to happen when the report comes out. >> stay with me. we have more to discuss, couldn't coming up after the break, the return of our favorite new game. where's republican of the week. it's a tough on this week, guys. not gonna lie. not gonna lie. we switched to tide hygenic clean free. it's gentle on her skin and out-cleans our old free detergent. tide hygenic clean free.

worst republican of the week. we should not herschel walker has had such a bad week that we actually disqualified him from this game. our first contest is pennsylvania candid eisen, just reported this week that oz led a research team that conducted sides of experiments that resulted in the death of over theater docks. a review of 75 subjects -- and 2010 revealed that his research, quote, killed over theater docks and inflicted significant suffering on them and the other animals used and experiments. what it is hard to beat an alleged puppy killer here. there is another republican, senator ron johnson of wisconsin who gives me a bit of a run for his money. he now begins this week with and wasn't an instruction because it wasn't an armed insurrection, even though

rioters did have arms. judging that the rioters, quote, did teach us how to use flagpoles as weapons. hilarious, right? we've got the senate to be last night, johnson -- mandela barnes said this, when i got that my office such under six, because that is not impacted by what was happening at the capitol. i wasn't aware. i immediately and forcefully and repeatedly condemned it. >> he may have not known sudden insurrection was having because the couples people patriots. he called them tourists. this is an act that he supported. >> all right, let's bring back our saturday night live panel. guys, first caution to pull the view, oscar johnson? for today have, instead with you. who's there was republican of the week? >> first of, dr. oz is a circus freak, you know? he's like he said, the want to the poppy murder serial killer.

he's pretty bad. i have to say, you can never take the words republican ted away from someone who is proven to be as awful and wretched as no one as johnson has proven to be. those comments on the insurrection, by themselves, they're just qualified. the problem is, he's been saying this comments for two years. he can't recognize a coup by his own party in his face. but that allowed, makes it by far, in my judgment, the worst republican of the week. >> eugene, who do you got? >> i mean, think about what rod chances is talking about is much more dangerous than what we heard of mehmet oz. it's something we're talking about just a second ago about how important it is for people to believe in democracy. ron johnson has downplayed the insurrection. has said it was armed.

we don't was armed. can continue to do that as the sitting the united states government is bad, has been bad for democracy. people believe those lies that he's ready. that's not great. so, ron johnson. >> they're not asking for my opinion, but on the show elected anyway. it is unanimous. i'm with you guys. ranch outside. his comments, despicable and consequential for the future of our country. he is the worst republican of the week. and, johnson's -- he's calling for snap products to restore confidence in voting results. is it the reason that people don't have companies elections are now? are because people like him are lying about the results of 2020? if you to knowledge what happened? >> absolutely. no question. disseminators of concerns but elections are two people united states. let it rip putin and the republican party, led by people

like ron johnson, who are only too happy coming with their friends to fox news to repeat these talking points, trying to undermine confidence, not only in american election data, but in the american institutions. i cannot think of anything more treasonous for an american them to take a such hammer to the sacred things that separates our country from so many others around the world. the fact that americans have free choice. i'll add that the fbi and justice department this week iterated that they have absolutely no reason, none, zero, to suspect or be concerned that there are efforts in this election right now, domestically, to undermine the elections. the threat are those republicans have already said they will not necessarily except the outcomes of the elections. they're already requested crushing the legitimacy of. >> listen, we all time for ron johnson, i want to ask you,

this is eugene, mehmet oz, facing blowback for during a fund-raiser speech in front of it of hecklers car in a world war ii museum. what does it say about the state of offices campaign that would allow him to stand in front of hitler's car, not knowing what was behind him? especially when his campaign has been all about optical missteps. we all remember the infamous crudités video. this is a guy that keeps stepping into it. >> he needs a new advanced team, a team that go and look inside things up for folks running for office, for politicians. that is what this is. there's no reason for this misstep other than doing it to yourself. shooting yourself in your foot. that is something we've seen over and over again with this campaign. it happens a lot with for some candidates, right? typically, in the old, his

first time candidates were not running for u.s. senate or u.s. president. we're seeing these issues happen because the folks around them often are younger. they don't have a whole lot of experience. i talked to some democrats republicans about this this week, they're hoping that it's the innocent answer, right? that this was a mistake by someone on the team putting him. there didn't know who's card was. there's a question of was this something to signal something? i think that is less likely. for that is a question that is bouncing around. >> really quick. really quick. number one, i guess jeffrey divers verge raider wasn't available. it's ridiculous and absurd. how many times have the republicans engage in these types of quote a quote mistakes? it is absurd. >> absolutely. eugene daniels,, fernand thank

has always been built around the spiritual idea -- first washing the character, and much in the entire family go from their hire selves to their lower selves and negotiate that space between who they want to be in who they actually are. the season, we definitely find the character living in his lower solved and in the state of shame for bet. >> yeah. their character has been trying to reconcile his muslim faith with his american upbringing throughout the series, season one in season to. tell us about the evolution you wanted pectin your character? have you had a similar understanding of your faith as a result of this process? >> it's opened up a lot of conversations. it's been really cool. it is, in general, a story of faith and, again, that idea of

wanting to be good and wanting to be a best cell is something that i think anyone can relate to. i think the way that the character is currently having a low death as he's trying to figure out where he stands and what it all means. he's definitely a doubt. what i was found interesting was the way that i was raised and what i know of muslim traditions that doubt is a hell the part of belief because it allows you to go deeper. he's definitely taking the messy route to go deeper. >> no. it's such a powerful message. i think it's one that people of all faiths can relate to. i've been really fascinated by how your shell provides a more realistic and grounded view of muslim life than we typically don't see the media. i was wondering if that was important for you to portray,

to portray that reality. >> yeah. i think i wanted a human depiction of what it feels like to be dealing with guilt and ambition and eight and desire. i think we sort of a really long time in the last 25 years trying to prove to people that we are good. that we're trying to make ourselves seem not dangerous. there's this pr campaign of, no, or innocent. everything you heard is wrong. making sure that doesn't said and to those explanations and two apologies, is really a softening of the human experience. this is human. it's really watching people make mistakes and watching

people deal with things that usually are reserved for in her life. i think we put it outward. i think we do it in a way that isn't just unique from muslim family on tv, but in general, of your family on tv, i think we're showing things that a lot of families go through. as eugene under the surface. we like to bring it out and play with that. >> i gotta say, i watched the entire third season. it's incredible. i'm not gonna give anything away. you do go to the holy land for one of the episodes. you tackle it in a smart and clever way. i'm curious to know what you learned about that story and why you decided to touch upon it in a way that you did. >> yeah. my friend who is amazing, not only in our show but on succession, such a good actor. palestinian. she plays another.

early on in the series, we saw that there could be a threat because there's palestinians in the family. that we could go and to jerusalem and making up so, i think we had this go. it's really heated over there. we hear about palestinians and israelis and the tension. what it would look like to make a comedy episode when we put a character who went and somehow both sides are really fed up with him. somehow, he's the biggest jerk in the whole situation. we definitely succeeded. that was the way to find some comedy and relatability in something that can feel really blake. so, it is a character piece. i think you really see, again, the human characters and that episode. i thank getting to be a part of

that do that was really exciting for us, as the show. >> yeah. it was a brilliant episode. listen i have to ask you, you're in award winning actor. your brilliant writer. you are standup comic. if you are now also an executive producer. your friend and costar premieres new series this year. how has it been to see his journey since your theory started? what does it mean for you that you are now using your platform to raise others up and create spaces for other actors to tell their stories? >> it is really exciting. i think i have never subscribed to the mentality that there could be one show or one that will check a box for any particular group. there is this idea that there is a muslim show. that is good. no if for anyone that watches

on netflix you will see in from the same team, there is totally different stories and working with mao has been amazing. but in that match together with him, ready much of those episodes. for me to be behind the camera, it was something that i was really excited to do. not just support him, but, again, offer a more diverse palette of the types of things we can get into. and bill shows, i think, are in some ways the best audience, or different audiences because they do different things. i think just beginning. i think there's a lot of stories that need to be told. we love a story for many of our communities starting a woman. that's something we're working on, as well. to be able to produce this cast a direct other actors, that is something in a very excited to

be doing. >> we are all better off for it. lisa, congrats to another success, much deserved, my friend. keep up the great work. it's great to see you. >> great to see you. >> that was my interview with ronny's of earlier today. thank you for making time for us at home. come back tomorrow night at nine eastern on msnbc. you'll be joined by former white house speech writer. we will discuss his thoughts on his midterms and what he police of the ten most consequential days of the obama presidency. until that i'm ayman mohyeldin and new york. or an unbearable itch. this painful, blistering rash can disrupt your life for weeks. it could make your workday feel impossible. the virus that causes shingles is likely already inside of you.
