>> a very good day from all th
10:01 am
from s&p sea world headquarter here in new york welcome to alex witt reports we begin this hour outside a serving court in washingto d.c. there you see protesters gathering, it's happening today, over the next few days as th showdown over reproductive rights returns to the nation's highest court. mifepristone, the drug at th center of this legal battle, remains available to women across the u.s., at least unti wednesday, while the court way the latest gop led efforts t ban the drug a new reaction this hour t comments made at the nra convention, including donald trump's remarks that mas shootings are not a gu problem. here's what to advocates for reform told my colleague jonathan capehart. >> camilla congress, and to se
10:02 am
the cowardice from my go colleagues is just gross everyone is too comfortable. we walk around with our suits, we talk to our donors, w raised all of this money, an then we go on banded kne pandering to the nra are you kidding me >> the united states o america's only place that ha more mass shootings thus far than there are days, and it is because we are allowing regula people to have weapons of wa on our streets it's because we're allowin regular people to not have permits to carry their weapons >> precisely meantime, president biden is back after his, at times emotional trip to ireland. we will have more on his visit in just a few minutes. and today marks ten years sinc the boston marathon bombing. this is the dramatic front pag of today's a boston globe, the day the terror came to town. we will have a live report o that later on in the hour.
10:03 am
in the meantime, we have several reporters in place t go over all the days developments for you we're gonna go first retur studio to nbc's chloe atkins o the two abortion developments. so right now, as you, know the supreme court is reviewing the limits on nif upper stone that will be accessible for women until tuesday at least then what can we expect to happen >> we saw the supreme cour actually quickly yesterday t preserve the status quo as i relates to accessing medicatio abortion, giving the court and allowing it a little bit mor time to really define the next step in this case. they did order the plaintiff in the case, which are a group of antiabortion advocates, and doctors, to respond. and so we could as early a next week, or mid next week, c and get a better picture o where it stands as relates t access to mifepristone now we do want to remind folks when it comes to mifepristone, there are a lot of facts tha people need to keep in mind. that is, it was approved ove
10:04 am
two decades ago, and it ha been used by millions of americans nationwide and also, it is a highly saf and highly effective, and we even seeing supporters everywhere weigh in on thi directly take a listen. >> a sense of outrage that a judge with no medical training would have the audacity to override a decision of the fda that was the product of expert in the field >> we are getting the christia evangelicals view on the entir country, which violates th separation of church and state furthermore, the drug that was recently banned because it i not safe by a texas drug is on
10:05 am
that's used for miscarriag treatment as well as for abortions. mifepristone's at some point i time is not available, we will see providers pivot to our minds apostle all only regiment that is safe but slightly less effective. we will also see providers moreso offering surgical abortion options which are a lot more invasive and a lo more expensive, which coul push it out of reach for a lot of folks across the nation >> this also could be pushin it out of reach for a lot of women. that being that the governor desantis in florida signed six-week abortion ban, by th way, so many women don't eve know they're pregnant that six weeks. so what is that going to do to the whole greater area of th south? >> after the dobbs decision in june, we saw florida reall evolved into this abortion saf haven state for the whol southeast region of the united states that is because multiple state in that part of the countr moved heavily restrict o outright ban abortion with ver limited exceptions after the
10:06 am
overturning of roe v. wade so as a result of that, florid since that decision has seen a major uptick in patients traveling from out of stat into florida to get this typ of care. i do want to emphasize that th six-week ban does not take effect immediately it does not take effect 30 days for now it really is based upon if th states current 15-week ban i upheld because it is an ongoin court battle that is surrounding the right to privacy, including abortion. if the six-week ban does tak effect, what it does do is i would impact floridians an also the whole entir southeastern region of the u.s and the caribbean. so many people would have to travel even further for care o they wouldn't be able to get i at all >> okay. thank you very much, chloe atkins, for that let's go to nbc, julia - julie, welcome, is there any indication that congress has t get involved in this >> look, alex. they're getting involved to th
10:07 am
extent that they can 253 democrats, members o congress, filed another brie yesterday. this time to the supreme court urging them to uphold this permanently to essentially put a stay on the texas case, th original case that would hav essentially overturned the fda approval we know that's not happening now, but there is all this mes tied up with that chloe knows lot about between multiple court cases and democrats ar essentially using their powe in uniting around this issue not clear whether th conservative court is going to listen to democrats in thi case, but it is interesting. senator joe manchin did no sign on to, that it was only senate democrat who did it look, they are plannin hearings we know in the judiciary committee they're gonna hold a hearing on the post-roe world. we know the health committee which has overseeing the fda might also do something. but this is democratic-controlled senate in the house, republicans ar not likely to put forward an hearings or investigations int this matter. i want you to take a listen to two opposing views on this
10:08 am
issue, one is senator tim scot who is potentially presidentia candidate tim scott, and the other is barr. really chair of the pro-choice caucus she shared an emotional stor about her own back alley abortion she had at 16 years old. she is of course running for senate take a listen to that. >> i'm not gonna talk about si or five or seven, i'm just saying that whatever the mos conservative legislation i that can come through congress -- >> that's what you support >> yes these decisions placed government, judges elected officials in a middle of suc an important medical persona decision it's taken away reproductive freedoms which once again is one step towards the radical right wing in this country trying to establish th national abortion ban. this is fundamentall undemocratic, and it is wron and it is disproportionately impacting black and brow people, low income people, people who live below th poverty line and in red states >> this is, interesting let'
10:09 am
go back to senator scott for a second because he told m colleague, alec batali, that i he's president he would sign the most harshest restrictions on abortion that congress coul pass he doesn't define whethe that's five, six, seven or ten weeks. the reality is, scott know that even his colleagues senator graham, from south carolina's bill to ban abortions after 15 weeks, woul have no chance of passing in the senate and the house anytime soon because of course there is the 60 vote threshold which prohibits democrats from passing any kind of codified protections for roe, for abortion, but on the flip side it prevents republicans from going rogue and imposing any kind of national band. >> julie tsirkin, thank you fo that another big story we are movin to, the latest classifie documents leaked following today's court appearance b u.s. air minute, jack sierra he is accused of sharing classified documents and a group chat -- what can you tell, as george >> alex, we are basically at the tip of the iceberg in term
10:10 am
of the lengthy investigation into this document lake. what we know right now is at stake, some intel secrets abou the war in ukraine ukraine's combat ability abilities overseas and as well as some intelligence about our allies mainly south korea and israel. we are backtracking here, a lo of questions now circulating o how a 21-year-old had access t top secret information we know he had an icy role wit the massachusetts internationa guard. that is how that happened. as far as what and how he wa doing with these court documents, alleged that he was transcribing paragraphs of information from the documents and then putting them online i a social media platform that i fairly well-known to gamers. from there it escalated, not just from the transcribing o these documents but then photographing them, taking the home and then posting them online, he appeared in federal court no plea guilty of or not guilty it was an emotional day with his parents, telling him tha
10:11 am
he loved them, they responde in kind and then of course you have the dramatic takedown all of this unfolding fairly quickly. one thing that was o significance in these document is that even the embassy enter know that anyone who has acces to this type of informatio should know better they should know not to take this information, let alon photograph and post it online. of course the attorney general merrick garland, weighed i saying the department of defense is now investigating a well as the investigators on the hill who want to know more about his access to thes documents. of course, this comes to shock for a lot of people in the neighborhood where all of this transpired take a listen to some of the neighbors said in that community. >> i saw the name jack tec sarah, i was like i know tha guy, that's on, familiar i wan to schooled him. he had a good head on hi shoulders, wanted to join th military that's all i can say about that >> i heard the name and i was like, are you kidding me i know the sky >> the fact that he would have
10:12 am
access to jack teixeira it surprises me -- >> i completely disagree, with it i go to - i know what it's like with all the regiment stuff i he knows it's wrong, h deserve to be punished for wha happened >> we know he faces charge under the espionage act. right now some of the dialogue on the hill is sort of, what happens now? right? because the question is ho someone like this gets acces to these talks a bit documents many starting to weigh in an say, maybe some people who hav these access should have their social media monitored >> i keep going back to that work, how did he have access t this we will get to the bottom of that george soliz, thank you fo that coming up, the moment that lef the leader of the free world juedmp up. we are back in 60 seconds. we are back in 60 seconds.

the fda. so you've got texas, you hav got a state to wednesday you've got with happening in washington, it will probably g to the supreme court we have a brief in congres saying don't overturn the fda. and there is legislation pending, but the problem is yo know how long that takes to ge past especially when the republican control the house. >> you mentioned nevada. really, a purple state these days how important is this issue to your constituents? i'm hearing curious what you'r hearing from them? do you think going after abortion rights will backfir on republicans in your state we >> absolutely do. we are a purple state. but young women, well, women o all ages feel very strongl about this a large number in the no partisan certainly are i agreement with you nevada is still a cowboy, stat we don't like government interference, and that means i our bedrooms to. so abortion will continue to b an issue
10:16 am
back in 1990, the voters o nevada by 60% margin locked in the roe v. wade statute that w had on the books and that can't be change without another vote of th people >> let's move to the 21 year old massachusetts internationa guardsmen, we jack teixeira, he's facing charges for leakin documents on the internet. it still had crouch or how h got access to have printed suc critical documents but what does the pentagon and our intelligence need to do to ensure this can't happen again is that even possible? >> we, well i certainly hope s and i'm sure there are investigations going on in the pentagon and some will com from congress. not only how did he get access but how did he disseminate i in the chat room before we eve knew it. this could have grea consequences for our nationa security it makes our allies suspicious of what we are doing, just at
10:17 am
time when we are restoring goo relations after the trum administration but the main thing is we hav to be sure it doesn't happen again because it not only puts national security at risk bu perhaps individuals in the intelligence community you have to have respect for the intelligence community o where would we b internationally as well as a home with >> good question, so we know that some democrats ar calling on dianne feinstein to resign after health issues hav prolonged her absence on the shared committee it may hinder judges being confirmed by her absence the senator asked to b temporarily replaced on that committee. do you think that's the righ move >> i do and i think she knows. that i think she knows the committee needs to be moving forward. but i don't think we need to make her health decisions for. her she has an amazing recor fighting for california and al the country and the congress she needs to decide that and in the meantime the committe can move forward appointin those. justice but i'm not gonna call

this is a real thing. this is not a hoax. right, now florida is the you follow the plan, you'll lose weight. latest state to join the battl for abortion rights afte governor, ron desantis, signed a bill banning the procedure after six weeks of pregnancy except in certain cases. effectively creating a so-called abortion desert in
10:26 am
the south. joining me now is th democratic minority leader o the florida state, senat lauren book, lauren, welcome this law is a result of a rapi referred by santos and florida republicans to transform florida into one of the most restrictive for abortion services so explain the limits of thi new law and how it's going t impact women, when it goes int a, fact because the curren 15-week ban, that one is still being challenged in, court right? >> yes, alex, and thank you so much for having me currently, this would be one o the most restrictive abortio bans in the country, we banned th use of tele-health, we hav multi physicians, to physician for fetal federal illega abnormality. while there is an exemption fo rape and incest and survivor of human trafficking, you have to provide documentation to ge those exemptions it is a horrific horrific da in the state of florida. you are, right currently the 15-week ban is in effect
10:27 am
this six-week ban wouldn't tak effect until the florida supreme court rules on a cas that they have in front of them which is likely to occur i june one of the things that we ar telling folks across the state of florida, and the sout because you are, right peopl do receive the reproductiv health care in the south and i florida, to keep their appointments to reach out to their providers, this is a really dark day and very terrible time >> i'm curious about ron desantis himself because h signed this bill, late night thursday in a closed-door ceremony, quite a notable departure from the way he was signing the 15-week ban before large audience in a church and he did not explicitl mention the abortion law durin his speech at libert university on friday, for th thousands of evangelical students take a listen to what he said. >> we have embraced freedom, w have maintained law and order. we have protected the rights o parents. we have elevated the importanc of family and promoted a
10:28 am
culture of life. we have respected our taxpayer and we have rejected wok ideology >> just curious if that was th royal we, or what that is. about but why do you think h is downplaying the signing o this bill? >> i think it's because he knows this is not popular in the state of florida 75% of floridians do not support this type of abortio ban. it is wildly unpopular, it i extreme and it is -- in his six-week nature let's call it what it, is an all out abortion ban it is a huge, departure he did it in the dark of night. i believe the announcement cam out at 11:00 at night. and it is different for hi because, you see oftentimes he is never at a loss for words and i think he knows this is not a winning issue for him. and, really and truly, we wish instate a photo of you jus announced the fact that he's running for governor already because he's completel destroying the state that we
10:29 am
all love so much and it is a very interesting thing. >> hey, i'm gonna ask my director josh to put back up that map we were just show because most of the states prohibiting almost all abortions look at. that they are across the dee south. i'm curious, what are th implications for women who are seeking reproductive care in the whole southeastern quadrant? where are florida women goin to go? we >> well, the closest plac they can go now, alex, is nort carolina, and that is somethin that we talked a lot about a ban like this is going t create medical refugees. we have seen that already. people having to leave whether if it's after 15 weeks, people are going to unfortunately tak measures and thrown hands, which we know is horrific an dangerous. and or they will have to avail themselves once the 15-week ba does come into effect. to get to that 15-week line. with a rape incest and human trafficking exemption which we have argued quite a bit that
10:30 am
people may have to avail themselves to that without really having a crime of occurred, which is terrific an dangerous. let's make no mistake. the free state of florida, where you don't need to have any documentation to get a deadly weapon, but you have to have documentation to get an abortion into receive health care we know that this is dangerous we know that the political religious, rhetoric has pu women in harm's way. not just in texas, but here in the state of florida in this county two women that we know of have been on the network this wee talking about their stories ha to go home to develop sepsis when they had a tear in thei amniotic sac before they could receive appropriate care this is wrong. this is dangerous. and it is killing women an girls. >> florida state senator lauren, book i want to thank you for your time i look forward to speakin with you again keep it up thank you. >> well that case plays out in florida the u.s. supreme court as taking up access to the drug, mid upper stone. jugs alito blocked limits on the, bill preserving acces
10:31 am
until at least wednesday joining me now is rebecca -- professor law at york la school also former assistant district attorney of manhattan d.a.'s office good to see you again, rebecca let's get into this because i' curious, is it just buying tim for the supreme court to examine all the issues in th case where does it offer an indication of how the cour might rule >> it doesn't really offer any indication of how the cour might rule this is really a question of what is going to happen in the interim while this issue makes its way up through the courts. as you are just talking about, the case in dobbs, supreme courts last pronouncement on abortion rights, the court clearly said, this is an issue that ought to be decided by ou elected officials so the fallout that you were to speaking about is what was expected having the court way back in o a national issue, on the acces to this abortion dru nationally, it is, again something that was probably no
10:32 am
as anticipated >> let's move to donald, trump shall? way as you, know on thursday he sat for a second deposition in the new york state civi case against him, his daughter ivanka sons don junior and eri as well as the trump organization unlike last, summer when h pled the fifth more than 400 times in that deposition, th a.g.'s office said he actually spoke a. what did trump have any real choice but to cooperate this time what would be the effect o pleading the fifth again tha many times >> if you plead the fifth in a civil case, unlike in criminal case, the jury ca consider the fact that you did that so in other, words they ca draw the inference that yo must of had something bad to say if you don't want to say anything at all. obviously we understand in a criminal case, a jury wouldn't be barred from making that conclusion so he had to make th calculation that it would be more damning for him to remain silent and have the jury dra that negative inference, tha it would be for him to actuall
10:33 am
testify. but of course he really does expose himself to liability by answering these questions as well time will tell about whether o not this was the right decision >> you know, he is facing kind of a laundry list, if you, wil a legal battle let's take a look at what hi former attorney general. bill barr. thinks that donald trump shoul be wearing about the most. >> when it first came out that he had the documents, a lot of people sort of ran and, said why didn't the government trie to talk to him about, it why didn't the govern hint subpoen him. it turns out that as i suggested they drew upon him for a year and a half, the subpoenaed him based on th government's conduct here, i suspect that they have som evidence that they would consider to be strong evidence of obstruction and that is why i feel tha this is probably the mos threatening case >> do you agree with him >> i think that is probably. right i, mean it is both
10:34 am
threatening -- i mean, we don't have th facts. with that caveat, we don't know, but there have been certai indications for -- there was information abou perhaps maybe he was sharing these documents or some of these highly classified maps with other people. second of all we also hear reporting that there was his lawyer was required to speak that the court ruled that th crime exception to the attorne client privilege made it suc that he had to give testimony. both of those things indicat that the special counsel he'll might have significant amoun of information that could help them build a case. i think it is as the forme attorney general was saying, a fairly straightforward case. unlike the broader investigation into january 6th whether he was in fact obstructing the actions of congress on that day >> here's another angle, rebecca, the washington post reports the doj special counsel, jack, smith is investigating whether trump used dishonest
10:35 am
fundraising tactics in a effort to overturn the 202 election, so what does thi tell you about the scope o smithson vest acacia and one o the challenges making that case? >> so, you know, wire frau cases are quite common in th federal system and really essentially require that you prove that an individual lied in order t cheat somebody out of money or of property and some white using the national wires o emails and so if they can prove that, there may be issues as t intent one of the things that makes the document case a little bit more straightforward is that the intent requirement i easier to meet that, said the federal government builds these case all the time if they have that evidence, it is possible that case coul also prove to be a fairl significant legal obstacle for the former president >> okay, rebecca, good to talk with you thank you so much. it is ambitious and aggressive

electric vehicles by 2030, to new unambitious deadline tha is stressing out automakers. joining me now is to move, g climate correspondent with the washington post. tim, welcome, we are talking with you because he wrote abou this the obvious previous target wa 50% electric by 2030, now th epa is pushing for 67% electri by 2032. what does this mean fo automakers and how are they reacting? >> you know, as you can imagin there are a lot of differences between the automakers plenty of them have stepped up their production, alread others have been slower, there is a divide around that. and a lot of this is reall nuanced. but i think you can expect ove the next, year the administration is gonna have t deal with pushback from th automakers while they figure out exactly what the requirements are going to be >> well, yeah, it is a giant disruption to a massiv industry in 2021, tim, the u.s. had 282

million registered vehicle including, cars buses an trucks up to a year ago, less than 1% of those were electric and les than ten years to go, it got much of the infrastructure required to support th transition, that still has t be built so from charging station nationwide to battery companies, because the biden tax credit say that all tax component need to. be made in america, is the industry on track to meet thes deadlines? it is more kind of a nudge >> i think the industry ha made a lot of strides in the past couple of years people say that sales ar hitting records. it's now up to 7% of all sales in the united states what the administration is doing is placing a pretty bi bet on the inflation reduction act that congress passed las year and even the major infrastructure spending bill that went out the air for that those bills put billions and billions into building the infrastructure that you're talking about into subsidies for automakers to bring a lo

of their factories and develop more of them in the united states rather than abroad. so from the administration's position, what they see is well, the private sector is making all of this investment on thei own already. the federal government i giving them even more money to do it even faster. from the biden administration' position, that means that, yes you can touch them and maybe even forcefully pushed them to go up further over the nex decade >> can i ask, you tim, wha with the impact from a private perspective be how much would 67% electri help the environment we >> well, the idea is that cars and trucks are our bigges source of greenhouse gases right now in the united states and almost a third of our whol country's contribution t climate change comes just from cars and trucks. if you reduce that a drastically as the biden administration is talking about, you could over 30 or 20 year get rid of the equivalent of two whole years of emissions everything in united states,
10:44 am
coal fired power plants, factories, farming, anything that produces admissions at all of that up in these changes would effectively do the equivalent of getting ri of all of it for two ful years. >> wow, okay, last question is the stability of the chargin technology to billet-y's -- the recalls, gm, chevrolet audi, hyundai, after the house fires were sparked by teslas overnight charging has this evolved enough to win consumer confidence? >> that is going to be the major question over the next few. years there are a lot of peopl in the industry, even people who have pushed for th industry to produce more and some are electric vehicles who say that we are still really early in the learning curve. you can't build new factories, go through three, five, seve years of developing new cars without some growing pains i the process. the technology is changing rapidly all the time if you buy a new - that will be sold a year fro

now is gonna be drasticall different because of all the improvements the industry, those that are more reluctant say we need mor time to figure that out, w need more time to make sur that these problems go way that they are bein addressed and on top of that that consumers believe them so this rule isn't in place, yet it will take a year to how shutout and those are likely going to be the dividin lines. >> which means we're gonna b talking again in the future, n doubt, thank you so much coming up next, several ne twist in the murder of a tec executive, plus one of america's biggest cities i about to come to a standstill. remember a moment ten years ag today.
