i screwed up. mhm. i got us t-mobile home internet. now cell phone users have priority over us. and your marriage survived that? you can almost feel the drag when people walk by with their phones. oh i can't hear you... you're froze-- ladies, please! you put it on airplane mode when you pass our house. i was trying to work. we're workin' it too. yeah! work it girl! woo! i want to hear you say it out loud. well, i could switch us to xfinity. those smiles. that's why i do what i do. >> this is the katie phang show, that and the paycheck. live from miami, florida we've got lots of news to cove and lots of questions to answer

so, let's get started. clarence thomas and all thos luxurious vacations that cost lot more than many people earn in an entire year. so, who is picking up the ta for that pot globe-trotting? we'll talk to one of the reporters who broke th bombshell story. plus, trump's legal nightmar is becoming a reality. fresh off his arrest i arraignment in new york, feeling the heat from at least three other investigations i want to know which is th next shoe to drop. and later, it's not just easter, it's the one year anniversar of the katie phang show. we're gonna take a look back a some of our highlights from th last 365 days. all of that and more is coming up a good sunday morning to you until those who celebrate, happy easter we begin today's show with the fight over abortion access i

america. small groups of protesters taking to the streets across the country yesterday with mor demonstrations planned for today after two competin rulings from federal judges pu a commonly used abortion pil in legal limbo one judge in texas ordering hold on the use of mifepristone, well another judge i washington protecting abortion access to that bill for 18 states president biden is vowing to fight the texas ruling, whic is expected to be a length legal battle that will likel end up before th conservative-leaning unite states supreme court nbc news white house correspondent, monica, joins u now with the lates development. monika, good morning tell us, what's the bide administration's plan an strategy to fight this decisio from texas >> hi there, katie well, the white house had been bracing for this outcome for weeks, really preparing fo what they call worst-cas scenario, if the judge in texa ruled the way he did essentially moving to suspen

the fda approval o mifepristone, the agency deems safe and effective to terminat pregnancy. this is something where we nea the texas case was coming down the pike, everybody here was watching for that. but then the opposing an contradictory ruling out o washington's day is what makes this a little more complicated from a legal perspective, as you well know. so, the biden ministration either way says they'r pledging to fight the ruling that of course would move to ban this drug. although, right now, it is still available, and it is not a nationwide ban that is why the judge in texas gave the department of justice for instance, time to appeal that's exactly what they notified they are going to do. now, a process has to play out where this likely of cours goes to the conservative fifth circuit in the matter of texas depending on what happens in the washington case, if that's appealed and then, whatever those two circuits end up ruling and deciding, if those are

conflicting, for instance, that's right deference eithe scope to the supreme court and where they could say, we hav to hear the case based on th merits, if there were differen opinions there but at the same time, th department of justice and th federal government could still file an emergency appeal and kick this up to the suprem court, asking them to weigh in sooner than that that's one possibility, whil still trying to get this blocked by the fifth circuit so, a couple of differen strategies here that could pla out, certainly discussions thi weekend about how they want to move forward but the vice president, ha really been the leading voic on this issue for th administration spoke out o friday as this news wa happening. she called this an incredibl dangerous precedent, in he words, and president biden issued a statement shortly after that saying essentiall that this means that any kin of prescription, not just this when we're talking about, coul be subject, he said, to thes political and ideologica attacks when we're talking

about the fda in the context o this decision. so, as you mentioned, this really has to work its way through the courts it is setting up for a major legal showdown, katie. >> monica alba, thank you fo the latest from the whit house. we turn now to rome, where pop francis is leading easte sunday ceremonies in st. peter square this morning. the 86-year-old pontiff is recovering from a nasty case o bronchitis that forced him t spend a few days in th hospital a couple of weeks ago nbc news correspondent, an thompson, joins us live from rome and, good morning, happy easter what is the mood there in rome are there concerns about the pope's health? >> happy easter to you to, katie. the mood here in rome is, would say, a mixture of joy an relief that is because pope francis this morning, looked ver strong he came out, he was brought to the altar in his wheelchair. but to the surprise of many an

certainly me, he stood unaided during much of mass. and then he also stood when he delivered his message to the city and the world he both sat and stood. that is one measure of his health he has this chronic knee problem that has forced him to use a wheelchair and when he walks sometimes to use a cane. his voice sounded very strong. and this was just a little mor than, let's say, 12 hours afte a very long easter vigil mas saturday night he coughed somewhat during his message to the city and th world. but that is to be expected, as he was just a week ago spendin three days in the hospital for bronchitis overall, it is a very strong performance. and i was in the crowd when th pope mobile went through st. peters square. you heard in various languages people saying, we love you, we love you, papa, hope and it was a very warm welcome

and enthusiastic welcome it's always interesting to watch pope francis because tha kind of cheering is just lik oxygen for him he really feeds off of it. you can really see him get mor energized. you can see it reall strengthens him. now, the pope is down, this is the end of his public events for holy week. he will get some much deserved rest but this is a man who people close to him tell me he really does not rest, he loves his job, and you could clearly see it this morning, katie. >> thank you, anne, for th latest and rome. tensions are rising in the hol land this easter sunday afte israeli police - holy muslim site in jerusale this week. police claim they were working to clear men who had barricade themselves inside. this morning, hundreds o muslim worshippers are back at the mosque joining us now is nbc's ra

sanchez in tel aviv. rough, my friends, what more can you tell us? >> well, katie, the violence this week started at the mosqu in jerusalem, it did not sta there, instead, it's spread al across the region from souther lebanon to gaza to the occupie west bank. and today, to syria. overnight, the israeli militar says three rockets were fire from syria into the -- and this morning, israel i heading back, first with a drone strike at the rocket launcher itself, and then with several other airstrikes o syrian military positions. katie, on top of that, as we speak, the israeli military is carrying out a major man hun in the occupied west bank. they're looking for a suspecte palestinian gunmen who o friday killed two israel sisters. their mother is in the hospital, she is in critical condition she is fighting for her life those two sisters are bein laid to rest today they're actually from a britis israeli family they lived in settlements in

the occupied west bank, prim minister benjamin netanyah under real pressure from his right-wing voter base to crack down hard on the west bank, to stop attacks like that, attack like what we saw in tel aviv katie, this is the unbelievabl sensitivity of the allot grandmas in jerusalem, as yo know, the third holiest site i islam, what starts their can spread their jordanian government technically the administrators of the mosque, even though it' in jerusalem, they're warnin that if we see another repea of what we saw this week, wher israeli forces stormed into th mosque, there could be catastrophic consequences al across the region, katie >> raf sanchez, thank you so much and still to come on the katie phang show in the wake of donald trump' historic indictment, arrest, and we met this week, it's har to keep tabs and all his other investigations we'll get you up to spee ahead. plus, mike pence under oath. the former vice president wh is the target of

news about one of the severa investigations into former president donald trump exhibit a, on tuesday, trump was arrested and arraigned for 34 felonies for falsificatio of business records by the manhattan d.c. office. exactly, on wednesday, w learned trump's vice president mike pence, will not appeal judges order, that he answered questions before federal grand jury, convened by specia counsel, jack smith, as he investigates trump's role in the january 6th insurrection a the u.s. capitol

exhibit c, fulton county district attorney, fani willis investigation of trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, apparently about to cross the finish line exhibit d, the carroll defamation case is about to ge started. exhibit a, trump has got t come all the back to new yor city again, this week, to si for a second deposition before a new york attorney general, letitia james. need i say more? and who better to break this all down within two lega legends and friends of the show former federal prosecutor an msnbc legal analyst, glenn kirschner, also the host of th justice matters podcast. and joyce vance, msnbc legal analyst, also near the co-host of the hashtag sisters in la podcast. okay, i got through thos titles, you guys are alway busy you always take time for the katie phang show, so, i am grateful joyce, i like to start wit you. it's been a few days since trump's manhattan da arraignment and the unsealin of that felony indictment. lots of hot takes flying around i am personally bullish on the charges.

but i would love to get your assessment >> so, katie, i am bullish to. and this indictment was really the product of a lot of public commentary before it was actually unsealed. so, many people going on record, saying it was week, before the dread the charges themselves but once the indictment wa unsealed, we learned it wa about the 2016 election, it wa about trump's efforts to manipulate that election b creating false business record that were designed to conceal conspiracy to, engage in election interference. the manhattan da's a experienced prosecutor wit both state and federal experience he has a very experienced team backing him up on this one i think the trump attorneys ar running scared on this one that they took a ver aggressive public posture, calling the indictment boile plate, saying they weren't seeing anything new, but tha seemed more like posturing tha their actual assessment of the

serious risk that their client now faces in manhattan >> glenn, let's switch gears a little bit here, let's tal about former vice president, mike pence, is this really big of a win as it's being toute for special counsel jack smith we know that pence was basically saying, i've got thi speech and debate clause, and have executive privilege t hide behind, but a federal judge says, no, you have t answer questions before th grand jury, there are stil limitations. talk about it. >> yeah, it's an important victory, both legally an tactically for jack smith. i think we all know, katie that mike pence has some sharply incriminatin information that comes directl from the mouth of donald trump that's gonna be a direct evidence, not circumstantial evidence, because donald trump waged a relentless pressur campaign on mike pence to do let's call it what it is, to violate the law, the electoral count act. so, i'm dying to see more abou

judge boasberg, the chief judg in d.c., his opinion because it is really interesting. he said mike pence must appear before the grand jury an testify about includin everything in the run up t january 6th. but he can declined to testify about what he did on january six because perhaps he has som speech or debate claus privilege in the fleeting time that he was presiding over the senate and, you know, openin the envelope,'s counting up th electoral college votes. that is not much of a victory. that is not where the danger lies, regarding the evidence mike pence can provide about donald trump i think it was a legally sound ruling and a pretty savv ruling because it feels like judge boasberg took away a possible avenue of appeal fo mike pence

now we see mike pence is not appealing. this is a real danger zone for donald trump >> joyce, now, let's go south, down to close to you, we'r gonna go to georgia. there is rumbling that another big indictment might drop soon this time from fulton county georgia da fani willis reports that willis may go big or go home and bringin charges. what is the strategy here? is it better to allege a bigge conspiracy, involving trump an several of his allies, o should fani willis stay focuse only on the big fish >> one of the things you hav to consider as a prosecutor is what charges does your evidenc prove and what can you convinc the jury to convict on the risk, if you go to big, yo know, we've all seen these indictments that are overblown juries sometimes get confuse or they make an effort t negotiate amongst themselves and return a split verdict so, prosecutors like to follow

the kiss roll, keep it simpl stupid it's a great rule fo prosecutors to keep in mind. that said though, when you hav evidence of serious crimes, yo have to charge them. and it seems that willis has been focused for a while now o whether or not to use georgia' -- statute to rope in a reall full measure of conduct around the georgia election rico is something that's typically used for organized crime, willis is something of specialist in its use, she's got several cases underway involving crimes that involved gangs in atlanta, using th statue there is a possibility she could do that because a lot of the reporting that we're seein suggests that willis is no focus just on trump, like th manhattan da, but rather she i focused on the entire cast o characters that played a rol in efforts to manipulate georgia's election >> glenn, april 25th, we'r

still in the month of april, i you can believe, it is gonna b another big day, carroll's defamation and sexual assaul lawsuit begins in new york city the judge in that case rulin that to other alleged victim of sexual assault at the hands of donald trump can testif against him at that trial. explain to our viewers why the jury is allowed to hear from those other victims? >> so, ordinarily, the uncharged misconduct, you know conduct that is not directly a issue in the case is not something that sees the inside of a courtroom, of course ther is this rule, 404(b), provides other acts of misconduct, ma be relevant to the issue tha is being litigated, whether in a civil setting or in criminal setting if these other acts of misconduct's, for example, sho a common plan or scheme, or an absence of mistake or accident and there are other exceptions

that allow these other acts of misconduct to come in at trial that's what i think we'r seeing in the e. jean carrol litigation i will say, it is nice to se miss carroll finally getting her day in court it has been a very long road and it will be nice, i think to see whether a president o the united states can say th kind of defamatory things abou an alleged sexual assaul victim, with impunity, jus because he's president of th united states. i very much look forward t fall in this litigation an saying, you know, what the outcome teaches us all >> joyce, very quickly, before i have to let you guys go. we got jim jordan, house judiciary committee chair, serving a subpoena on former a.d.a. mark pomerantz. jordan is claiming that th investigation has been

politically motivated, putting aside the rank apoxsee that we all know here. do you think jim jordan ha been off more than he can chew by trying to compel somebody like mike pomerantz, who clearly thinks trump's guilty, trying to get pomerantz in front of congress? >> you know, sometimes when yo ask questions, you don't necessarily want to hear the answer, that's likely to be th case here. pomerantz, longtime prosecutor again, in both the federal and state system, not someone wh will be towed by jim jordan' tactics, he will tell the trut as he sees it, and it's very clear that he believes from hi book and from his work that th former president's criminall responsible for his misconduct in manhattan >> glenn kirschner, joyce vance, i have to tell, you guys are more than just brilliant legal minds, you're also friends, an you get up early, and you've done it from day one on the one year anniversary of the katie phang show, i want t say thank you. and as glenn says, the justice matters, and today you got a

double dose of it for my viewers. i appreciate it, thank you guys and now consensus, hey, it's a day ending and why, th republican response to trump's historic indictment has been all over the political map after the break, can the party quit trump ahead of the loomin presidential primaries in 2024 we have much more the kati phang show, so, keep it righ here >> woman: why did we choose safelite? we're always working on a project. while loading up our suv, one extra push and... crack! so, we scheduled at safelite.com. we were able to track our technician and knew exactly when he'd arrive. we can keep working! ♪ synth music ♪ >> woman: safelite came to us. >> tech: hi, i'm kendrick. >> woman: replaced our windshield, and installed new wipers to protect our new glass. that's service on our time. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ ♪ limu emu & doug ♪

congratulations to senator lindsey graham, he has a new job, unpaid intern, to put i mildly and kindly, for donal trump. >> i'm sorry i'm so upset, but please, help president trump if you can afford five or te bucks, if you can afford $1, fine, just pray, make sure you vote as early as you can i your state do not risk anything anymore

that is soon as you can, pra for this country, pray for thi president, and if you have gotten the money to give, give it lindsey graham dot com, it doesn't go to me, it goes to helping this president and taking back the senate >> that hair on a skin ton looking a little bit kind of familiar the gop response to trump' indictment has been all over the place. senator graham is literall begging for money, tears welling in his eyes, and durin the holiest week for christians, congresswoman marjorie taylo greene is comparing trump to get this, jesus, and eve nelson mandela in contrast, senate minority leader, mitch mcconnell, takin a very different approach, crickets, the silence from mcconnell is deafening joining me now is rick wilson, cofounder of the lincoln project, republican medi strategist, and the author o running against the devil. rick, good morning i like your easter blazer, thank you so much for joinin it for us. we just played that bizarr

clip of lindsey graham askin for money to help donald trump it was like one of those commercials for just a few cents a day, you too can sponsor of former president. i mean, how wise, rick, is i for republicans -- though ahead >> it is like some said sara mclaughlin music and said i' puppies staring at the screen. >> that's right, we talked about that so, look, rick, how smart is i for somebody like lindse graham to continue to embrac trump with all of th albatrosses of this firs indictment in the severa indictments that are gonna com to pass? >> look, if you're a republica candidate, ever thinking about running again in a primary, yo are gonna do exactly wha lindsey graham did donald trump's control of th party is separated from the, from all the legal challenges. in fact, those have now become a litmus test for republican primary voters, you know, an if you are not with them now 100 percent, they are going to turn on in the future. that's why every singl candidate in the presidentia

primary has come out and basically neuter themselve versus donald trump on thi issue. about why you're gonna see a shield wall of republicans wit only a handful of mino exceptions here in there tha are going to be pretty muc cohesive and supporting trum and claiming that th indictments are a lie, it's al the deep state, et cetera, e cetera >> you know, rick, dominio voting systems versus fo heading to a huge jury trial april 17th blockbuster filings revealin more and more evidence that fo knew what it was put into serious ritualized but the 202 election being stolen. but to fox viewers, don't even care and more importantly, will fox continue to serve as a propaganda arm for the gop going into the 2024 primaries? >> to answer your second question, absolutely i mean, you can already see it this week, they fully made the term, ron desantis, on fox every 35 seconds for about a year, he was off for the las three for weeks now, declining

last week's off completely they made the turn back to donald trump they're gonna go back to trump because that's where the bread and butter is. their audience, their audience sort of cares a little bit about what they're hearing fro the dominion case in terms o the contempt that fox host have further audience, and fox executives have for thei audience but overall, they understand how to stoke the great unwashe masses out there and to driv them into a frenzy, that's exactly what they're gonna do, you're gonna see fox back on its whole antifa, blm, trend panic at a billion miles a hour as they rebuild their support and infrastructure around making donald trump the single focus of their coverage in american politics >> shifting gears a bit, rick, republicans in tennessee thi past week exposed to black state lawmakers and it backfired spectacularly. now, we have two young democrats with a fantastic spotlight on their activism,

energizing young people. gen z voted overwhelmingly democratic for congress in the 2022 midterm elections just this past week in wisconsin, the home of the university of wisconsin, it ha a huge young voter turnout i that supreme court race, which was won by a liberal justice i, mean how much trouble are republicans and when it come to this particular voting bloc >> well, overtime, young voter have tended, well, not about this is an exception, out we'r saying patterns of that long running behavioral troop breaking and the younger voters in both the millennial generation an gen z are not moving as quickl over time to become more - a traditional pattern has been as you age, you become mor conservative, more likely to vote republican. we're not seeing the uptick in the millennial urgency generation the gen z is a little ligh still. we are seeing them turnout we are seeing them energize. and when you have abuses o power, like you saw in tennessee, with speaker --

you know, look, anyone wit foreign neurons to rub togethe understood that was racially motivated, it would signal a dog whistle in the mos grotesque way, it was a racial decision by sexton and by th republicans in tennessee, they made that decision because these were young black men who are serving in office. which is something we should salute in this country of an young person becomes involve in politics and serves they made a racially-charged decision, they did i deliberately, they did it to control people, they did it to quote, own the libs, and the are going to pay a grotesque and terrible price for wha they did >> well, they broke, it they bought, it so, they've earne it, in my humble opinion lastly, before i have to let you go, rick, let's talk about reproductive rights. this week, michigan governor whitmer, signed an appeal th states 1932 abortion ban while republicans in florida are charging ahead in an effort to ban abortions that six weeks

given the outcome of tha wisconsin supreme court race o just talk, about seems to be largely driven by abortion rights, do you think republicans will somehow eventually pivot on this issue are they just cannot ignor reality and just doubled dow once again >> ron desantis is a terribl terrible bind. his largest political donors are calling him and saying, if you vote for the six-week ban, we're out, we're done, it' over he's gonna sign the six-week ban, it is trouble just like dobbs, the dog caugh the car, and they're gonna hav a world of hurt from femal voters over this, and a lot of men voters to. >> rick wilson, friend of th katie phang show and a frien of mine, thank you for joining us >> congratulations on your first year, katie! thank you. >> thanks, rick. and coming up, rules for the but not for me for decades, supreme court justice clarence thomas ha reportedly been showered wit lavish six figure jet-settin vacations around the world all thanks to a conservative

clarence thomas, has bee jet-setting like a kardashian. he is not using his on money t pay for the six figure trips

a new propublica investigative piece shedding light on what i call it bad bromance tween justice thomas and gop billionaire, megadonor highland crow. the article reveals that for more than 20 years, 20 years thomas and his wife have bee accepting things from, protest on private jets, and super yachts to exclusive resort vacations. according to propublica, justice thomas never reveale these trips on his financial disclosure statements. unclear whether he's violate any law or regulation by accepting gifts and no disclosing them. he responded to the report himself saying that he was quote, advise that the sort of personal hospitality from clos personal friends who did not have business before the court was not reportable but many legal ethics expert bags to defer and say thomas should've disclosed the privat jet travel at a minimum. joining me now is jesse eise garrett, senior editor and reporter at propublica jesse, now, this is a story.

the details of which are mind-blowing, shocking reports of clarence and jenny allegedl taking a private jet in 2019 this one is a doozy for me, to indonesia, to board harlan crow, his super lot for a nine-day vacation it would've been for an averag person half million dollars, that's one trip. also reported trips to a exclusive resort in california and to cause private lakesid resort in the adirondacks. even a painting of harlan crow and clarence thomas chatting with other guys includin leonard liu, the leade regarded is gearing the suprem court's recent hard turn to th right. jesse, how do you guys get all of these details >> well, it was an extraordinary reporting feet, was the editor, so, i can sa that by justin elliott and jos and alex meyer joe ski and we have been working o this for months now, digging into this. they looked at flight records,

but then they also managed t extract this from yacht worker and workers at the adirondacks lodge and places like that it was an amazing reporting fee, i'm very proud of those guys >> sounds like some old school journalistic living here so, jessie, i want to take a listen now, with you, to justice thomas describing ho he spends his vacations in a recent documentary about his life take a quick listen. >> you know, i don't have an problem with going to europe i prefer the united states i prefer seeing the regula parts of the united states i prefer a going across th rural areas, i prefer the rv parks. i prefer the walmart parking lots to beaches and things lik that there is something normal to m about it i come from regular stop, and

prefer that, i prefer bein around that. >> rv lots and walmart parking lots, i don't see them i indonesia for clarence thomas. jesse, what is your reaction t justice thomas presentin himself as, quote, regular sto after what you guys discovered >> well, we found that a prett extraordinary juxtaposition. that documentary it was funded by the billionaire who i underwriting these luxury trip and has been doing it for over 20 years there's been an effort t present thomas this way as jus a regular joe. and every man. and it's true, absolutely, tha he's got an extraordinar personal story, came fro poverty. but now, he's being treated to the life of a 0.1% are on public servant salary. so, this is really extraordinary, really galling, brazen juxtaposition of sort o

the appearance and the reality here >> jesse, the supreme court, it's only federal court in the united states without a formal set of ethics rules, senator van hollen issued the statemen response to report americans confidence in ou highest court is tanking because of this kind o conduct. we need answers, and the court needs a code of ethics just last month, the judicia conference, it makes the rules for the federal courts, adopte new ones to require justices t provide more detaile accounting of free trips, males, another gets they receive, fro corporations organizations jesse, even before these new rules, justices like clarenc thomas were supposed t disclose gifts o transportation, includin private jet flights. i mean, is this just delayed accountability for clarenc thomas did he really run afoul of anything until now >> well, there are two issue here one is a long-standing norm of judicial probity, of judicia

behavior we talk to justices and judges who would literally not le their friends by them lunch, they would split the check a lunch. or they would never use thei title, making reservations at restaurant, because they don't want to take advantage of th office that's really the big issu here, there's a technical issu of whether he violated the law also very important for supreme court justice, whether you're violating the law o not. and ethics experts told us seven experts told us that h had clearly violated the law about the private jets, an probably the yachts. there was no exemption for transportation then there's a question of whether he was violating the law for this stays at th adirondacks lodge, the resor and things like that, and th stay on the yacht while he was in indonesia, et cetera, new zealand, the greek islands taken multiple super yacht vacations. and those probably violated th

law to we'll see now whether he wil start disclosing this, whether he will stop, and whether ther will be further accountability there certainly are calls fo much more investigation. we don't know all of the details. >> well, jesse, if there's one thing about you guys tha propublica, you look at thos details. i want you to come back, w have to talk about harla crow's bizarre collection of nazi paraphernalia alas, right of time. thank, you jesse fro propublica for being here, senior editor, i appreciate it >> thank you for having me >> and coming up, where is m paper? the katie phang show celebrating its firs anniversary after the break look at some of her most memorable moments. it's actually gonna be a surprise for me, i haven't see this don't go anywhere.
