country for people makin simple mistakes begs the question what is happening i our neighborhoods that has become common for but folks to do something - knock on the wrong door and en up shot. i am talking to a psychiatrist and an activist about wh neighbors are tainted by propaganda also, access to medication abortions is safe for now bu in certain states we still hav to jump through hoops to get the health care that they need we are talking to one person suing the state of texas after being denied abortion care despite potentiall life-threatening complications and then the 2024 landscape is still taking shape sources tell nbc news and amal smith from trick president joe biden about his reelection campaign that could come a early as this week we will dig into the newest nb news poll out today that i giving us a glimpse of how americans feel about a biden versus trump sequel.

you are watching symone. we have a lot to get into. >> seems like the days of hono their neighbor are long gone i america. sadly it seems we live in an era of fear our neighbor o hate thy neighbor. just look at what happened i kansas city when 16-year-old ralph yarl was shot twice fo ringing the wrong doorbell trying to pick up his twin brothers and the grandson of th 84-year-old man charged with pulling the trigger says his grandfather was consumed b fear and conspiracies. ben crump, the earl family attorney, spoke with m colleague jonathan came our. >> america, we always have thi persistent problem because w have part of society who don't

see our children as worthy o dignity. respect and protection, we see them as menaces to society and this is the issue. when you think about this whit citizen coming into the door and simply seeing a blac person and saying that i have right to shoot >> sadly, girls shooting i proving not to be an isolate incident yesterday, in south florida, police announced they have charged a neighbor for shootin -- grocery delivery worker wh wound up at the wrong address. no one was hurt, the actions were justified he was afraid. and we can't forget a 20 yea old woman who was shot and killed after turning into th wrong driveway in upstate ne york which happened just day before a texas cheerleader was critically wounded after

accidentally getting into th wrong car. a second cheerleader was als shot all of this comes as the u.s is on pace for a record number of mass shootings in 2023. 17 mass killings in the firs 511 days, resulting in 88 to lives lost joining me now is dr. jonathan metzl, director of the department of medicine, health and society at vanderbilt. he is also the professor o sociology and psychiatry luxur at vanderbilt. i'm also joined by britney paton cutting him, msnbc political analyst, black lives matter activist and former member of president obama' 21st century policing task force. dr. messi, i want to read fo you what andrew lester's grant on - cold and pc news

his actions are his real possibility, and falling int the fear and paranoia stoked b the 24 hours news cycle an wild conspiracies did not help his mental state is this a legitimate explanation for what has happened in this case? >> we have many people in this country who harbor all kinds o explicit and implicit bias sees it - somebody gets into the wrong car, they see something on the street, i think the issue is that we have laws that legally sanctioned these people. illegally sanction these peopl to act on there by scenes. i think that is really the issue, is that these new stand-your-ground laws basically say that anyone wh feels, anybody who feels threatened can shoot first and acts questions later i think all of these shootings particularly the one in my hometown of kansas city are

natural result - where people basically fired their guns based on th perception of threat and the figure out that it was all a mistake. so really the issue is that -- racist people, but also we are sanctioning people to fire their guns when they have th perception of threat i think that is really where - >> britney, ralph yarl's - exposed about the cycle of violence impacting black men yesterday on msnbc take a listen. >> i think for me it is just that black boys do not have to be dead for us to see them and say this is not okay you know, once we see that som injustice is going on somewhere, we need to rally around that family, because it is somethin that no family should have t go through, and it is somethin that continues to happen >> brittani, what do we need t do to break this cycle o

violence >> - grandson - about interrupting the cycle o fearmongering. the psychosis, the disease o white supremacy depends on seeing whiteness and patriarch as something that is under constant, imminent and immense threat, so that grea replacement, fearmongering that we see on tv and in all o the so-called journalistic outlets confirms that bias so it can make peopl trigger-happy, it is also wh people will oppose abortion an attack it, it will support police violence and mass incarceration. it helps to create a empowerment like andrew lester and to be clear, it help empower andrew lester' neighbors who did not help ralph yarl when he knocked o their door seeking help an bleeding out these conservative outlets perpetuate that kind o fearmongering and when we ar not careful more mainstrea

outlets help normalize it. when we give these kind of sof focused, puff pieces o extremists that perpetuate these kinds of ideas i like ralph yarl's family think about my own black son, think about the fact that ralp is now no longer anonymous and able to live out his teenage years with comfort and the ability to make mistakes and try new things he is now famous and we assemble -- forever. i am thinking about psychological and spiritua health and the emotional healt of all of the young people who continue to be exposed to gu violence every single day. >> you mentioned fearmongering there. what do you think is the bigge culprit here, is it fear tha these people feel, or is i hatred that they feel? >> i mean, i think that is a bit of a chicken or the eg question, because unfortunatel one fuels the other. if i experience or feel hatred

towards somebody it mayb because i have been taught t always be scared of them and the threat that i believe they pose to my power and m privilege. if i have been taught to fea somebody that it is much easie to turn that fear into unchecked and unvarnishe hatred that would allow someon to not only pick up a gun an shoot first and, like your other guest said, ask question later, but also to stockpile to put themselves in the position where they believ they have to defend themselves at all times of >> doctor met so, missour and florida where that grocery delivery shooter took plac both have stand-your-groun laws first of all, do these law apply in this case, and if the do, how do you feel they pla out? >> well, i agree with what w have been hearing about. i don't know if any individual shooter's racist but i do know that these

stand-your-ground laws tha basically encourage people, we used to have an older versio of this law that basically sai if someone breaks into you house you have the right obviously, to defend yourself. but in general, in society, yo have the duty to try t de-escalate. laws did not protect people wh kill people except in the most extreme circumstances. these new versions o stand-your-ground laws protect people in cars, walking around streets, walking aroun supermarkets, so in a way -- and what we see is - first of all, way too many people - second of all, we see how it comes, oh comes where blac americans are -- being quoted as patriots black americans bearing arms are the victim o stand-your-ground -- missouri so i really think that whether or not any individual shooters

racist, we really need to look at the racial outcomes of thes laws because they encourage an really lead to the kinds o flash in a section few shootings that we've bee seeing here, which hav profoundly disparate racia outcomes >> so, do you believe that tha people who feel emboldened whe they know these laws are on th books? they are conscious of it and i fact are more likely to shoo people in the states >> well, again, i don't know - i wrote a book called dying of witness that look at the racia politics of gun laws i missouri, in particular. but also, and the book wit these self-defense golden laws and the frame around these valence is the change -- we have something called the castle doctrine, which is wher all this came from the idea, again, which i centuries old is that a man ha a right to defend his castle but when we change the

framework not only t stand-your-ground but in missouri, when i was watchin these last change, they were called make my day laws. it is kind of a action hero, crazy thing, but the idea wa basically that people coul step forward if they fel conflict, they can actuall step forward and initiate th conflict the key thing about this i that that in the onus is on th prosecution to prove that th person didn't feel threatened. in - can say i felt threatened, tha is why i shot this person wh came to a door how are you going to prove tha somebody didn't threaten them? in a way, when we took awa what was called the duty t retreat, a mandate to retreat, and only take somebody's lif in the worst circumstances what we are doing is protectin peoples emotions, which as i argue in my book, plays into what i call the politics o racial resentment. and all these racial stereotypes and circulat around this question of wh appears threatening and what i

mainstream society doing about it >> dr. johnson and britney - cunningham thank you both so much -- gus about their antiabortion heartbeat law, many women in the state are just trying to survive. now they are getting a court involved, including lauren miller who tried to leave th state for an abortion which sh found out -- no longer viable she joins me next with her message as this legal figh plays out. but first, jessica layton has look at the days top stories jessica. >> i charles thank you. let's get you all the latest o the major escalation in suda right now. u.s. forces have now evacuated embassy personnel in the country as fighting rages in the capital. president biden announced th embassy will temporarily suspend operations and h called for an immediate ceas fire between the rival group fighting for control of that country. the rapidly intensifying

great state like texas tha really does care about life as you know, this bill does something that has not bee done like this in texas before which is to recognize that lif

is protected when the heartbea is first detected. >> that man was texas attorney general ken paxton on the step of the supreme court i november, 2021 praising hi states ban on abortion the attorney has repeatedl touted his record, including a promise to protect innocen life from the moment o conception to natural death. but for women and others who face consequences of the law paxson has placed, the polic has been a living nightmare. that's why a group of feminine texans are suing the state saying it is - ambiguity on medical exception and to claim that these pardon have been denied necessary and potentially lifesaving car because medical professional throughout the state fee liability under texas abortion

bans among those women's lauren miller, pregnant with twins, she intended to carry to ter while receiving gut wrenchin news that one of the fetus a was no longer viable and then it continued gestatio couldn't danger both her lif and that of the other fetus. after seeing multiple opinions from doctors and genetic counselors lauren traveled nearly 800 miles to colorado t seek an abortion lauren miller joins me now >> welcome lauren. your story is trul heartbreaking and i'm so happy to have you here today but you just tell us wha happened to you and why yo decided to join this lawsuit >> sure. decided to join this lawsuit because i recognize that i a the best-case scenario of an outcome like what we received, where we were very excited t find out that i was pregnant

with twins i already had a little toddler we had already won and three kids and this was perfect. we would get all three and we were really excited but then about 12 weeks into the pregnancy we absolutely go the devastating news that on of our twins had try me 18, an numerous abnormalities which meant that he was not going to make it to turn. as one doctor bluntly told u finally after we had struggled verse along to get answers because no doctor was at comfortable saying abortio just because of the legislativ environment we had it was hard to get basic answers to questions and we were fortunate. we knew doctors and othe states and we had the abilit to travel. we were able to go to colorado where i could get an abortio in order to protect my life an the life of my now one month old son. and i don't want anybody els to go through this the additional trauma on top o getting additional news and th

stress and the cost, financially and emotionally, a well as physically, the dela caused me to end up in the hospital for a second time this was due to severe morning sickness so i just really want to hel to make the outcome better for others >> so, cremona's of the texa abortion bill insist that th law has exceptions for medically necessary abortions. what do you say to those peopl based on your own experience >> i think that they may think there are exceptions but the are clearly not clear enough for lawmakers to interpret, fo legal teams hospitals, and doctors are not lawyers. they should not be responsible for interpreting laws an especially laws that don't eve use medical terminology. how are they supposed to kno what to say? so, why instead has resulted o these laws is just this cultur of fear, of even genetic counselors, we don't giv abortions, they just are

supposed to tell you options they weren't even comfortabl having that level of transparent conversation wit us to say, you need to get a abortion and so, it is so hard to b getting the worst news of your life, wondering what you shoul do and then not being able t get an answer on that. >> so, the supreme court recently ruled that th abortion pill mifepristone wil remain available while the justice department appeals - invalidating the fda's approva of the drug. as someone who has been denied medical care any post ro america, how do you feel about this decision to fall to the courts once again? >> i think that overtime, ever time we see more laws get pu into courts and into politicians hands, what really gets lost here is those of u who are the people, we are impacted by the laws on a dail basis. and we are just real peopl

looking for medical care we are trying to do the best w can for our family and it is devastating to loo at my newborn son right now an know that if antiabortio legislators in texas had gotte their way, not only would he not be here right now, but his twin, at fast would have had a very short, excruciating existence. and so i think that we reall need to get the politics out o health care, so that doctors can do what they do best and that is practice medicine. >> lauren miller, thank you so much for coming on today and for sharing your story the ambiguity surroundin medical exceptions to abortion bans isn't limited to the -- ob/gyn and reproductive rights advocate doctor katie mchugh so, how do abortion bans complicate doctors ethical obligations to their patients? >> such a good question. i spent so much of my life

learning how to be a doctor an how to provide care that i right for the patient, that th patient has chosen and decided it is best for them in their family my job at as a physician is no to decide for them or to m broad sweeping judgments o generalizations about them that is exactly what the court are trying to do they are trying to fit peopl into small boxes of, you are allowed to have an abortion an you are not, or this medicin is okay in this medicine i not. that is not the job of our judges that is the job of the individual people who need t make these decisions and liv with them. so a lot of the medical expect -- at the state level allow for abortions if the life of the mother is at risk, with some cases stipulating in a medical emergency. proponents of these bands sa

that that is straightforward enough is that straightforward enough and do the women have to wai until it is literally an emergency if they know, as i our last guests case, they kno upfront that there is a proble and it has to be dealt with? >> you know, the people wh think that it is straightforward are clearly no the ones who are obviously targeted by these laws and those people are folks lik me, who provide abortion care, and folks like miss miller, wh had to seek abortion care ou of state, away from her family and her support system because the health care system was attacking her and the doctor trying to care for her so no, it is not straightforward. and when we are evaluating a patient, we are worried that the health of the pregnant person is getting to the point where it may be too dangerou for them to remain pregnant, w have to question, are they sic enough, are they close enoug

to death for us to be able t intervene. and i as a human being do no want my doctors playin roulette with my life for thei own safety in this crazy legal system that we have. >> so, the supreme court has maintained full access t mifepristone for now what does that mean for you an your patience going forward? is it just a wait and se situation for you, or how ar you dealing with it? >> yeah. the mifepristone decision was relief we were so glad that it wa fully state and we were able t continue prescribing mifepristone with mr prostitute allow for the mos effective gold standard of care however, it is hard for me t celebrate when we are allowe to continue providing gold standard care. in fact, they should never hav been in this discussion, and i is completely inappropriate fo the courts to try to intervene

in this medical decision which has been clearly established b the fda and decades of literature that it is safe and effective. so the fact that we are goin to have to wait and see for th next few weeks and continu this anxiety state that we are all in is really frustrating as both a provider as well a for all the patients >> dr. katie mchugh, thank you so much for joining us thi morning, this afternoon, actually still ahead, sequels can be hit at the box office bu apparently not at the ballot box, when we come back, wh americans aren't very excite about the increasing likelihoo of a rematch between president biden and the last guy according to a brand-new nbc news poll. ow how i feel. ♪ ♪ breeze driftin' on... ♪ [coughing] ♪ ...by, you know how i feel. ♪ if you're tired of staring down your copd,...

shows exactly where voters stand on the presumed 2024 front runners, and it is not looking good 70% of americans say president biden should not see reelection, according to the new nbc news poll, and 6% do not want donald trump back i the white house as either. this comes after months of speculation about whethe president biden will one for reelection so far the word is yes

-- could come as early as tuesday setting up the potential rematch against donald trump i the general election time to speak to my politica panel. democratic strategist aish mills and republican strategis rick tyler, who is also an immense nbc political analyst. rick, what does it say about our state of politics that mos people don't want either of th people who may likely be the nominees for either party to run in the first place >> well, i don't think it is surprising the 2020 election was disaster followed up by januar 6th. people don't want to the country is still -- which is a terrible record more than half of democrats do not want biden to run, but republicans do want donald trump to run, but the countr doesn't one either one of them >> what are your thoughts on this >> and i'm wondering why we ar

talking about this, charles, because the fact remains tha the country doesn't want him t run. i think that it's some point w have to determine who is creating the real relevance of around the sky and his candidacy. is it all of us who keep lifting up and then talkin about them as if they ar statistically relevant, an then giving credit to th lunacy of a base that we kno doesn't represent the majority of the population? you know, one of the thing that refreshed rates me is tha there is so much oxygen bein taken out of the room by someone who continues to b marginalized and plush to th sidelines legally, now, we are seeing, as well as with regard to public opinion. while there may be a crazy frenzied faction that continue to champion in support, i just think that we have got t decide that we are not going t let this take up the majorit of the oxygen in the air anymore. >> you made it very clear ho you feel about donald trump. let's talk about dried biden

for a second, just for - the joe biden is doing for the new nbc news poll, does that concern you at all robert >> i am not concerned - i'll just jump in and say i am not concerned in the sense tha i think that when people see that the economy is moving i some direction rather than jus standing still and we have a president that is trying t make inroads, i think that's ultimately that will matter to the public discourse around th economic condition of today. so for me there is a conversation point that is happening there, i am less concerned about what that mean for elections that are over year away. what does that mean for th opportunity to really discus the solutions that are at hand that frankly, democrats in congress as well as -- are trying to move through and to try to really be honest about who is - blocking progress? >> -

the poll - stand behind donald trump amid the indictment and investigations that he's facing does this mean that trump' maga grip on the party is stil strong as it ever was? i would say it is only in th process. i have made no bones about it. i think donald trump reelected would be a constitutiona crisis from day one. the republicans don' understand that donald trump has lost the house, the senate and the white house, and progress as measured by who is measuring it so - certain direction in the right wants to make progress i another direction so that is a competitive and rational choice but the fact is that the country doesn't want either on of them, so we can have happ talk about one of the othe candidates but the fact is tha people don't want either one o these candidates i suspect the democrats don' want joe biden because they ar probably having a lot of younger people willing and abl and they don't feel like joe biden has delivered on the

progressive's agenda i think he did deliver on th progressive agenda, even actually he would be les popular than he is, remember the country thinks we are goin the wrong direction. 70 30, normally when we have a 70 30, he will not b reelected. that is dangerous, because donald trump could be elected. >> so aisha, if there is a silver lining in these polling numbers, it is not the majorit of americans, 50%, think abortion should be legal this is a big change do democrats need to make that an issue, or centerpiece issue in 2024? as they have since the fall of roe v. wade? >> you know, i do believe that abortion is a galvanizin opportunity from an issu standpoint from the electorate and as someone who is over pandering to the other side, i also think that there is roo there to bring like-minded conservatives along.

we saw in kansas that th majority of the voters republicans and democrats alike, did not want to have some craz abortion ban there so i do think that it is a politically galvanizin conversation here's the thing, though this is in the hands of th supreme court, that the people don't elect. right now you have a handful o radicals that are determinin the fate of abortion all aroun the country. if there is a conversation t be had with our lawmakers it i what are we going to do to fix that >> aisha mills and rick tyler, thank you both very much for joining us right now in the florida state capital, there is a bill tha if passed, would grant the state the power to literally sees trans children from their parents if they are receivin gender affirming care's. sees the kids from their parents. and that is only one of many problematic bills florid republicans are rubberstamp-in for governor ron desantis. so what exactly are florid democrats doing? what can they do

what is happening in the sunshine state is rachel rayne goolsbee, democratic state representative from florida. welcome. according to - thank you so much for bein here, according to the - currently in ten anti-lgbt bills advancing in the florida state legislature. this includes a bill that woul allow the state to temporarily seize trans kids from thei parents for providing gender affirming care how did we get here in the state of florida, and in thi country? >> you know, charles, i aske myself that every day. i am actually the only lgbtq member in florida house, and that particular bill that yo talked about, we actuall passed it on the house floor actually, just as i was coming on to your show, we just got a alert that the health an commune services committee they are going to be reviewing doing an investigation o jennifer mccarrick and

considering the issues o subpoenas for records. this is where we are in th state of florida -- >> sorry, what does that mean. if the news is breaking righ now, help us understand what that means does that mean they will b subpoenaing parents or peopl who are providing the care, th doctors? who is being subpoenaed? >> so it is unclear at this point so in this committee it is headed by the same sponsor tha sponsored the anti-trans bil in the same bill sponsored committee that said he wante to have the lgbtq communit should be erased so right now we, the florida house is going to be considering issuing subpoena for records. it could be parents or doctors or anybody that was involved with any child care. when it comes to gende affirming care, it could b therapists we have gotten so far away fro
