8:02 pm
for choice let's start in tennessee where it man accused of molestin multiple young girls was ouste from the state legislature wait, no he wasn't back in 2019, after thos allegations came to light, the republican's the point to lead the education subcommittee this week, the tennessee gop expelled to like democrats fro participating in a protest against gun laws in the wake o the massacre of six people and three kids in a school i nashville. apparently, the mere act o civil disobedience brought such, quote, disorder and dishonor t the house of representatives that they were deemed no wonde free to serve in public office curiously, the white democrati lawmaker who protested alongside them spared from expulsion. wait, she herself says that sh was not expelled because she i white.
8:03 pm
okay then. explosions, just on act of the autocrati overreach. on friday, a local fox affiliate reported the gop i nashville is threatening t freeze millions of dollars i state funding for memphis. if that city sends one of thos after lawmakers back to th status, those are some great a mob tactics that made do corleone blush will they be sending a horse's head for good measure? justin pierson put it best >> this is what you happen when you lose democracy. this is what we are fighting against and must stand u against. here's the starting intensity, but wouldn't start here. >> let's hopscotch over to texas, specifically austin where on saturday, governo greg abbott stated that he would pardon one daniel perry, the man convicted on friday of
8:04 pm
the murder of aaron foster the fact that perry was foun guilty by a jury of his peers, red blood, it -- that mattered little they are other things that upset eventually played a role in the governor's calculus was the number one, flexes tiger carson who had been a hero for white supremacists going t champion perry's cause and the reality that he migh be getting a pardon from the republican, not because of the self-defense article that di not win a trial, but maybe because he killed the righ kind of person it's not the first time they'v gone to bat for black live protesters let's stay in texas to pivot from austin to amarillo wher i'm sure you heard the distric judge appointed by donald trump, overturning the fda's decade old approval it was this gentlemen, matthew chasm eric who, yes, clinton
8:05 pm
galaxy brain conclusion that h -- no scientific background whatsoever, knew better than t abide by more than 20 years of sound and settled science. as a trump judge decided thi week in a medication, treatmen approved and deemed safe and sound when destiny's child - it's now not permissible sorry, you're little late to this party it's one thing less than a hour, and legal scholar sinc he has no authority to give, and which goes against publi opinion. another federal judge, thi time in washington state issued a ruling. we are off to the races, but more specifically, after the trump-stacked supreme court, where we already know that a least one of the justices will sign with casimir, because he' a man of principle a tried and true originalist
8:06 pm
or, this is our fourth story if it's just somebody you ca influence with a few luxur vacations. you see, our fourth and fina story of no this week concerns some damning reporting fro republica, clarence thomas, fo decades now, has accepte expensive trips and lavish trips from hartman pro, go megadonor. he's done so without disclosin them, in what is called a clea violation of the rules of course, a condensed thoma is also the justice you refuse to recuse himself from trump related cases, despite his wif ginny basically supporting his trump's coup attemop and who is holland coil?
8:07 pm
of course, amid inherited th real estate fortune. he's quite the collector, as the dallas morning new reported in 2014 crows library is adorned wit priceless artifacts from eisenhower's five star helmet, to the deed for the moun vernon estate in washington. he also happens to have an audit craft copy of mein kampf and hitler's place settings an linens some people collect pokemo cards or postage stamps, others fork over millions of dollars for nazi relics they were caressed by a hitle himself. to each their own. a big digging further into the third reich memorabilia late this show, which he says i only about preserving history. what i want to emphasize is th theme that binds all of thes for stories. from tennessee republicans expelling their progressiv counterparts, to the texas governor obliterating the jury system and trying to parted right-wing killer. and the judge taking it upon himself to a supreme court justice ignoring basic judicia ethics the american conservativ movement has all but completel
8:08 pm
abandoned the norms an principles - in these are four separate stories. they are one story o lawlessness, brute authoritarianism this week was a reminder tha if you're a black lawmaker where a woman in need of medication, don't expect conservatives to give a darn about you. do you know what we shouldn't be surprised. as the old saying goes conservatism consists of jus one proposition, they must b in groups, but that does not bind alongside our groups.
8:09 pm
-- let's start with you, what did you make of the tennesse expulsion that was this, wee and the threats from gop t freeze millions in funding i their districts are to sen them back? >> i, for, one i'm glad that the heads are off in america we can finally see what we'r dealing with for many years, increasingly radicalized and weaponize th democratic movement, puzzlin is the gop an exchange, those two young lawmakers it's one of thos things where you want to giv advice to the tennesse republicans, i'm like, you'r being a bit too on the nose. decent more subtle expel all three. we want to show the racism only the two back men and keep the white woman. you can tell in the exchange how they wanted to show them boy, how they want to tell you some other words they're so angry at these tw uppity black men were able t lead a peaceful protest outsid of the chambers. why did they leave that protest? i want people to keep th focus.
8:10 pm
because six people were killed last week, three in nashville, and tennessee republican sai that we're not going to do anything on to keep the focus on that these two lawmakers said tha we want to represent the people, we want to be pro-life, pr children, and tennesse republicans are like, no, no pro mass shootings what you're witnessing is return to reconstruction where if local cities have the law enforcement, if they the elected officials, if they hav the money, they don't have t follow the law they will follow the law o white rule, white mob and whit violence that's what you're seeing in tennessee and in texas >> megan, harlan crow's nazi memorabilia might be the mos enticing option to come -- the most significant revelation, if you take a step back, i that we have a justice on th supreme court who is effectively using go billionaires like human slot machines >> that's right. yeah. i think that you can ask for a better illustration of
8:11 pm
everything that's wrong with the supreme court in one story this is a story abou corruption, obviously. might not be a quid pro qu situation, i think that they probably generally agree o most ideological issues, but this is still highly corrupt it's a network of very wealthy right-wing donors that wine an dine with supreme cour justices, donate money to ge these guys confirmed in th first place. somebody, we still don't kno who, spent $27 million to ge neil worse confirmed to th supreme court. we don't know who did it because for one, the supreme court does not have to follo an ethics code like the rest o the federal judiciary does and two, dark money will influence the outcome of a supreme court nomination without any of us knowing who' behind it. here we have clarence thomas off of this scandal he didn'
8:12 pm
recuse himself involving his wife activity on january 6th and now taking private jets an sailing around and private yachts with one of the richest man in the country. we have no idea what busines harlan crow has in front of th supreme court, and even if h doesn't, he's got interests in front of the supreme court his interests are maintainin power for the corporate wealth elite, of which he is one. and clearly, he's got a friend on the court that agrees wit him on that point. >> i'm just shocked that clarence thomas might not have been telling the truth-- in rvs, walmart parking lots apparently he likes a yach trip as well megan, while i have got you, i just want to ask you, take a look at this tweet fro professor steve >> he says whe the majority has been appointe by democratic presidents, 1969 where we hadn't walked on th moon by my count we've had four
8:13 pm
democratic presidents sinc then, and yet for 50 years republicans have control disappearing court at what point do they say in the name of democracy we'r going to balance the supreme court? >> they should say right now i think it's not just th ethical problems one of the reasons that this situation, these big protest are happening in tennessee i our gun laws are a mess in thi country. it was true even before th decision of the supreme court. but now we're in a situation even with our state were gonna say, we want a bad ar-15s, w want to ban other types of weapons or schools or whatever the supreme court. with clarence thomas leading the charge is probably not going to allow it unless w make some major, major changes to the makeup of the supreme court. so i know some democrats hav been saying, well, we don' want to turn this into a circu that the american people are paying attention to the suprem
8:14 pm
court. they want big changes. the one ethics reform, the want the court to be fai arbiters of justice and th law. you don't need to look further than wisconsin to see that people do care about the cours of understanding how the court impact their lives and so it's not a circus t hold the supreme court accountable. >> and talking of circuses when i talk after the brea about the abortion dru decision by another right-wing judge in taxes but before we get to that,, tim, i spoke at my monologue abou if daniel perry gets pardone from murder in texas, it'l only be because he killed th right kind of person, th person that right wingers don' care about, a black live matter protester am i being unfair. how grotesque is governo abbott's move? he's calling for a - before an appeal is evolved? >> he's essentially saying tha he knows better than a jury. a jury that adjudicated th facts of this matter, whic perry said, the man he shot an killed was approaching his gun and it was self-defense. the other side of the argument was that actually he ran a red light into a group o
8:15 pm
protesters and then shot one o them and the jury ended up, sayin he's a murderer. that was the verdict, greg abbott said no, i as governo have superior power of the rul of law and i'm gonna questio this fine crystalline structur we spent hundreds of years trying to modify and make better. so we get good judgments out o the court system and he's just riding roughshod over the fact. because the gop now is now a party of policy, it's a part of cultural warfare, and racism, i think. and they're willing to run roughshod over institutions an order to score political points and it's nothing more that perry added here >> i think we all know that if it had been a black man in the car who shot a guy at an antiabortion protest governor abbott wouldn't b trying to pardon him right now coming, up stick around, pamela, trump appointed federa judge pulls the use -- medication abortions in th

8:20 pm
rights, a trump appointe federal judge in texas announced his long awaited ruling on medication abortio on friday. suspending over 20 years of fd approval for mifepristone, one of two drugs used to induc abortion he gave a governmental week to appeal the justice department acted quickly and appealed that same day. meanwhile, another judge i should point out and washington, gave the opposite ruling t protect the status of the drug in the status quo. my panel is back with me t discuss all of this may, again let's have a listen to what alexandria or castillo cortez said about how she thinks the biden administration should respon to the texas ruling.
8:21 pm
>> there has been thought, i believe given to this - already issued statements, for example advising what we shoul do in a situation like this. which i concur, i believe th biden administration shoul ignore this ruling i think that the courts have the legitimacy, they rely on the legitimacy of thei rulings. and what they're currently doing is engage in a unprecedented and dramatic erosion of the legitimacy of the courts >> megan, some republicans and some liberals are saying if republican had said that democrats would be up in arms. but aoc is exciting to ignor the judge, even though his ruling is bonkers in many ways he still a judge, we can't jus ignore what's your take on all of this? >> my take is that she is right,
8:22 pm
it's not just that this opinio is bonkers, what should've this but he doesn't actually as far as lawyers know have the authority to pull a drop off the market like that's this has never happened before it's unprecedented for a federal judge to singularl decide to take a medication of of the market. i don't think the fda is required to send in fd officials to start pulling m fist wrote bistro off pharmacy shelves i think that would b ridiculous i think alexandria kratzvill cortez is right, they're onl legitimate so far as the american people trust thei legitimacy and right now we have a federa judiciary who put in the supreme court that do no behave as legitimate members o democratic institutions and so people are losing their fait in those democrati institutions and when you read an opinion a the one from matthew chasm eric, that we saw today. you can see what people ar losing their fate. he wholesale adopt the messaging of the anti-abortion movement it's a love letter relate to
8:23 pm
the antiabortion movement of what she saw part. he's a long time antiabortio activist when you read something like that, it's easy to lose fait that the courts are fair dealers. >> in terms of overreach, should remind our viewers he's also the judge who insiste that the biden administratio could not drop their immigration policy, thei remain in mexico policy, which was a bizarre move for a texas judge was deciding state foreign policy and borde policies you and i have talked before about how democrats bring in but a knife to a gunfight -- bazooka. aoc isn't one of those democrats, what she's saying i provocative and out there. they're and she's backed up by ron white. >> i agree with. her flex your power. i hate saying this, but what would republicans do and that's what i want president biden to do. the majority of american support abortions, the majorit of abortions support control what we're doing dealing wit as a radically - wearing black robes now. as we just found, out ar bought off by the updated ji crow, harlan crow, who jus happen to have nazi member hom
8:24 pm
totally normal taking out lavish $500,000 tha he spends on clarence thomas's wife, ginni thomas's nonprofit. by the, way she gets a six figure salary. when do we have a compromise supreme court, and a compromised judiciary. filled with zealots that don't resent the will of the majority and you have some standing her to flex, represent the majorit of protect rights. i want president biden t flaxen what i've said on your sho before and i've been saying for two years. when democrats flax. when they show strength. when they fight. they're rewarded and if you don't believe me, when president biden blurted out semi fascism, guess what even though there was a lot of pearl clutching from democrats the majority responded what democrats fought fo abortion rights, kitchen table issue, when -- gun control, in tennessee, tennessee of all places. the youth are what them so fight, fight for the people, and show how extreme the gop has become you'll be rewarded politically and you'll have the majority >> i do want to click follow i gotta say, to be fair to highland grove, i noted your

jim crow gag we don't know if he's al racist all we know he's got very od choice and memorabilia is. house i'm gonna be doing a deeper dive into naz memorabilia and harlan cro later on in the show a quick follow-up, wisconsin they just wanted in stat supreme court rate, and they ran on abortion rights, this does seem to be a winning issu in a lot of places >> who would've thought? who would've thought the removing about 50 or a constitution protected right would galvanize the majority?. i think i've been in your show for a year saying this fight. fight. fight. you'll be rewarded look at what happene wisconsin. >>, look, we always enjoy ou guest taking victory laps. take your time tom, the sky, this federal texas judge matthew kacsmaryk, was appointed by then presiden donald trump, he's a super right wing judge as meghan pointed out. he said bigoted things in th past he's only 46 years old he's part of this huge cohor of young, right-wing, whit
8:26 pm
male zealots that trump appointed to th courts lifetime appointments. and pam, that makes trum whether we like it or not on of the most consequentia presidents in american history these judges will be offic when my grandkids are growin up >> the thing to remember a loony as i think has merrick's ruling was, strategically think he simply wanted to pu something in play that would get to the supreme court, an why, because this supreme cour is waging a war on the notio that the federal government ha expertise, and the federal government can be part o solving big national societa problems if you look back at the ep ruling last july, that essentially wa questioning whether or not the epa can regulate utilities the core question there was, where it is expertise lie. in the federal government? and the mifepristone rolling it's saying that the fda has new expertise to regulate drug that helps women both exercise their reproductiv rights, and to do it in an
8:27 pm
efficacious and safe way he says, the coroner's better. i, as a single judge no better i know where the expertise and the science resides. and this is gonna go back to the supreme court. and i'm very concerned that th role on this in the way they did the epa case they're pejorative characterizations, the administrative state, as simpl in oppressive collection o agencies that runner-up shot over american states and american visual rights needs t be reigned in when in fact w have case after case, in which well-trained civil servants in this agency, who know what they're talking about put in policies that are good for public how with, good for civi society, and good for women. south i think this is part of broader role that people reall need to dig their feted an resist because this is the first of a longer battle. >> one former resistance, is you don't have to enforce the, stuff you have no implicatio to enforce we meagan hatcher-mays, wajaha
