tv Ana Cabrera Reports MSNBC April 25, 2023 7:00am-8:00am PDT
7:00 am
house of representatives adams, always a public servant that's where he made his mark on american history >> one of the fascinating stories that you'll find in the podcast called founding son. john quincy's america. it's available where you get podcasts bob crawford, thank you so much. that does it for us this morning. ana cabrera picks up the coverage right now it's 10:00 eastern i'm ana cabrera. we begin with breaking news. this morning, president biden made it official >> the question we're facing is whether in the years ahead, we have more freedom or less freedom. more rights or fewer i know what i want and i think you do, too. this is not a be a time to be complacent
7:01 am
that's why i'm running for re-election. >> biden wants another term in the white house to finish the job. meanwhile, the front-runner to take on biden, former president donald trump is face another legal challenge. a prosecutor in georgia set to reveal a decision this summer on whether to indict trump over alleged 2020 election interference and the legal challenges for trump don't end there. jury selection is started today, right now, in new york will trump show up to testify in his own defense? and later, one of the biggest media shakeups in decades. the shock waves after two big exits from the airwaves. first, the breaking political news president biden announcing his bid for a second term. we have every angle covered, with our reporters and analysts,
7:02 am
symone sanders townsend and john kasich thank you all for being part of this conversation. the theme of the video is let's finish the job what can we expect from the white house and president biden in the coming weeks? >> we know the last few weeks president biden has been talking about how he has invested in america, the work he's done up to this point. and yesterday, he was asked by reporters, why do you need four more years and president biden said stay tuned. we expect the message to pivot on what is left to do. we don't expect official campaign events to start for several more months. but we expect him to use all of the trappings of the presidency. the bully pulpit, the stump
7:03 am
speeches and the rose garden, like he did yesterday, to talk about what's left to do we expect kamala harris to play an important role how she would figure into a second term for president biden. she has taken the focus for the administration for its fight for abortion rights. and she plays a prominent role in the re-election video she appears 11 times in that video. that's what we see from the administration >> you're in wisconsin, a pivotal swing state. what are you hearing from voters there? >> there's little surprise from voters on either side of the aisle. they saw this coming they saw it was likely based on the conversations i've been
7:04 am
having, you're likely to support him again this time around that's what i heard despite every person i spoke here, a concern or a mention of his age. listen to some of the conversations we have, who said they were excited for biden running for re-election. >> you know, i don't have a name i don't. he was always republican and the last few years have changed me on how people can be respectful to each other >> he's a good candidate to probably go up against trump who is running we'll see. it will be great to see if trump loses twice. >> the key in here in madison, wisconsin, is enthusiasm
7:05 am
this is a swing state that flipped the supreme court. or in november, with elections or president biden's initial win in this state. president biden needs voters to be enthusiastic. >> you've worked on campaigned and administrations, including this one let's start with the message in biden's announcement the question in the years ahead, if we have more freedom, more rights or fewer. is that going to resonate, do you think? >> i think the freedom message is the best way to couch what's going on across the country. one of the new york districts that did go for a democrat that was a swing district, if you will he couched the issue of
7:06 am
abortion, of women's reproductive rights in freedom not just a palatable message, but a winning message. i was an adviser to the biden campaign and i remember the conversation about the battle for the soul of the nation this is not a different message frankly from his 2020 campaign to the re-election campaign. it's a continuation and exp extension, if you will the voters are ready to receive that message how will the campaign go out and sell it? what i have been hearing from our reporting colleagues and former colleagues of mine that are involved with this a apparatus, saying that the voopt will be out there and being the president. they're going to be selling their agenda i don't think things will change
7:07 am
in the next two months, if you will, for instance, i do believe that vice president harris is in a rally for reproductive freedom. >> i'm going to circle back to you on the vice president in a moment let's turn to governor kasich here, given the focus on freedom and rights is that a message that can connect with conservative-leaning americans, as well? >> i think all americans are concerned about the economy. there's great concern about inflation in this country. great concern about crime. it's fine to talk about those things at the end of the day, it gets down to the pocketbook and do people feel secure in a lot of what they're betting on is that joe biden will be running against donald trump you heard a gentleman say i will be for him because i don't know what the other choices are
7:08 am
i'm not certain that donald trump will be the nominee. it's likely now, but we have two cases out there. the case in atlanta about voting interference, which is very significant. and secondly, it's jack smith with the documents case any one of those things if he's charged again, could be too much for him to carry people may look in other places. the business community doesn't like donald trump. is it possible for them to get behind someone else, who is younger and more dynamic that poses a problem for the democrats if that happens and the person they pick is able to talk about the issues they care about. we have a very long way to go. it's the first quarter in a four-quarter nba game. most things happen in the last three minutes. >> you're right. so much can change between now
7:09 am
and election day right now, president biden's approval rating is 41% in the latest news poll that's where he starts in the 2024 race. when you compare it to past presidents in the administrations, president trump was a couple of points higher. he lost re-election. former president obama was 48% in his administration. he won re-election we have a long ways to go until election day but this is a pulse of the people in this moment. how can that help inform biden's campaign strategy? >> we need to remember how close the election is going to be. biden beats trump by 77,000 votes. trump beat hillary by the same number and joe biden needs to do two things to win this campaign.
7:10 am
sell his accomplishments and remind people what he's done i love the freedom narrative in this video it goes straight at what we should be talking about, especially with women's reproductive rights. second, some time next year, they make the pivot and talk about the future all elections are usually economic referendums and democrats have to be strong on the economy and focus on this you'll see a white house that's doing that they are on a 31-city tour that's smart politics. let the campaign build a cool campaign to get ready for 2024 >> it sounds like you and governor kasich agree that the economy is a key component a lot was seen in the video released today you worked with her as vice president. what role do we see her play in the re-election campaign >> you can expect to see vice
7:11 am
president harris out on the -- not on the campaign trail but on the campaign trail today is a good example of what you see from the president and vice president going forward we should analyze what they're doing. going out not in a campaign and branded events they're going out as the president and the vice president. these are official events on their official calendars look, vice president harris is the one that went down there i was actually there to interview the tennessee three in nashville. i caught a little bit of the rally she did down there and the crowd was electric she was talking about the issue of gun violence. how about how three elected officials have stood up and rallied people in their state and how this is something that the president and vice president care about the reception she got there was quite amazing.
7:12 am
it was the most comfortable i had seen here. i think going forward that's how they deploy the vice president she knows what her strengths are. as we talk about the economy and the freedom narrative, people need to talk to voters shaq is out there in wisconsin and what not i have been on the phone over the last week talking to folks in michigan and wisconsin. folks in -- my daddy's from mississippi. i like to check in from mississippi and my nebraska folks, where i am from what's the economic temperatures abortion is an issue we're having conversations in a vacuum is not true economics, freedom, abortion, that's all tied together >> of course, there are a lot of different issues impacting the way people vote. not everyone votes on just one issue. when you look at highs and lows from biden's first term, as he runs as an incumbent president, he can highlight successes.
7:13 am
he has to confront some challenges like high inflation like the highly criticized afghanistan withdraw governor kasich, what do you see as his biggest challenge running for a second term? >> first of all, his approval rating is 41 presid%. donald trump had a higher approval rating. i endorsed biden biden won. i'm not taking credit. but it's interesting when you compare the two. the biggest issue is age there's no way to dismiss that vice presidents don't elect presidents presidents have to be out there and have to be vigorous. he can't change his age but his ideas can matter are people excited about the infrastructure stuff i don't hear it. maybe they are
7:14 am
can he have young ideas to get people challenge that's his biggest challenge i don't think they can have a rose garden strategy and not have him out there in aggressive ways it's aggressive ways to give people the comfort and the hope and some confidence that even at his age, he is capable, absolutely capable, being able to run the affairs of state. age to me, a matter of age is a number it's they ideas and the attitud about age. >> let's continue the conversation another day thank you for joining us right now. appreciate your time sad news i want to get to, music titan and movie star, harry belafonte. he died this morning of congestive heart failure in

7:18 am
townsend harry belafonte leaves behind a huge legacy. he impacted so many parts of society. what yo thu thinking about with his passing today? >> you could not really estimate the impact of harry belafonte. he was an activist and an intellect. he never got the credit he should have gotten he was one of the first ones to break through black entertainment in mainstream music and movies he did all of this, and being one person, it was unbelievable. when i got to know him, i was coming up in the king movement in the north he would spend time with us and reprimand us you should do this you should do that he was strategic no one knew movement better than
7:19 am
harry belafonte. it was harry who got entertainers to support dr. king and all the way up to the work we've seen around police brutality. he marched with us i remember last year when france was going to honor him and because he was a little frail, they had to do it in his residence, a room in his residence. his publicist and his wife, and that's the last time i saw him always was a mentor and a teacher. he was always one that was bigger than life it would not have been the civil rights movement the way it
7:20 am
played out and there would not be blacks that broke through in the '50s in entertainment, had it not been for harry belafonte >> his legacy goes back 60 years and his impact, as reverend sharpton went through, it is still felt to this day life is what it is, in part, because of the foundation he laid can you talk about what a sowersower i towering figure he was in politics >> mr. belafonte, it stretches back more than 60 years ago, he never stopped. i had an opportunity to meet him in 2015 when i worked for senator sanders on his first presidential campaign. and mr. belafonte was saying
7:21 am
some of the things that reverend sh sharpton said to him he had feedback and ideas and strategy he encouraged me through his work, he continued to inspire an entire new generation of young activists and people, who are committed to being politically engaged and involved in changing their communities for the better he did not shy away from lending his name to the political landscape if he thought it would make the country better. it is an artist's duty to reflect the times. he did that his entire career. until his last breath, he continued to inspire and mentor. this is a monumental loss for the world. his legally is continue to live on the gathering for justice has been working on a documentary. a camera crew was following

giving you more control of your business. we call this enterprise intelligence. from the network america relies on. will former president trump face charges in georgia for election interference? we will find out this summer the fulton county district attorney will decide between july 11th and september 1st. she laid out that timeline in a better to local law enforcement, saying that decisions could provoke a significant public reaction and she wants to give officials time to prepare to protect the public barbara, she is giving a lot of lead time, obviously, to law enforcement, several months.
7:25 am
it sounds like she's concerned about safety and security making this announcement. we've seen in recent years that some way go outside of public expressions of opinion that are protected by the first ascmendmt to engage in violence. as leaders, it's incumbent on us to prepare >> i think this is a pre-emptive strike she could have communicated this privately or sent a letter in stead, this is a public statement. she's doing a couple things. she is warning about a real threat that supporters of donald trump could act in anger and security should be ready and aware. she is telling the public, cool off. i know i said it was imminent. i meant july to september. she's getting heat from people who are worried, is she getting
7:26 am
cold feet or is the case going badly? her only mistake was using the word imminent. cases have a timeline of their own. sounds like she's had problem with the lawyers but she's making progress there. i think she is setting a level and managing expectations by saying no charges until this summer she's given herself a timeline can we glean anything? there is now a timeline. there's a lot of speculation as soon as next month, first, second, third week of may. something else we can green from the filings, this investigation is active and ongoing. earlier this month, she filed a motion that fulton county investigators are grilling electors
7:27 am
there's security concerns and there may be another reason she's setting the timeline >> there could be other people, not just the former president, facing charges, right? i want to listen to what we heard. she talked about indicting possibly over a dozen people and the list might include trump. >> there's names that you would recognize, yes there's names that you might not recognize. or names that you might recognize as someone who has followed this case but then, your mother might not recognize because she doesn't care about the case. there's names you expect >> remind us who else could face charges and the charges under

right now, jury selection is under way in new york for another trial involving former president donald trump former columnist carroll is suing trump in a civil case, alleging that he raped her at a department store you can see the lawyers arriving at the courthouse. trump has vehemently denied the allegations. he's accused carroll of trying to make money off of her claim it's not clear if he will testify at this ktrial in perso. he did give a deposition joining us is rehema ellis and with us barbara wade, attorney in alabama this courthouse is just blocks away from where trump was

arraigned earlier on charges he pleaded guilty to, in the hush money case. for those that might be getting confused, in all of the different cases of the former president, walk us through the heart of this case >> well, ana, this case is going on right now, in the courthouse pb you point out jury selection is under way. she claims that the former president raped her years ago. carroll's aattorney says she is going to call four witnesses in addition to carroll herself in this case. as to whether or not the former president will testify, many speculate that will not happen he will not be seen down here. in october, he sat for a deposition and carroll's attorney says she intends to use this deposition
7:34 am
in this ktrial that's about bat ray and defamation it is a civil trial. if she would win, the former president would not face any jail time. in this case, that is expected to last a week, maybe more >> this is a civil case. the judge said he will allow attorneys to call other trump accusers to testify. her attorneys can use that "access hollywood" tape as evidence, to back up her case. so, talk about how that evidence could come into play here, especially for an allegation, that's 30 years old. >> there's a rule of evidence, that says in civil cases, parties may introduce evidence of other acts that are similar to the one that the plaintiff is
7:35 am
alleging in this case, she says donald trump pinned her to a wall and forcibly raped her the evidence that she will put forward is examples of similar things that happened to them they're not exact. that's why donald trump's lawyer tried to keep them out a woman said he used a similar method of pinning her against the wall and kissing her or the "access hollywood" tape where he talks about grabbing women by the genitals. that's something that would make the story that e. jean carroll is more likely to have happened than not >> barbara and rehema ellis, we'll be watching. thank you, both. cable news craziness duel exits of tucker carlson and don lemon exit the landscape how carlson's exit can impact

powerful why now? what do you think is the final straw? >> it's hard to know even tucker carlson doesn't know why he was taken off the air as your previous reporting noted, there's a lot of possibilities. that's one of the sad things about tucker carlson, isthere' only one of four or five things that could have been the reason they took him off the air. all of the exposures coming out in the dominion lawsuit, showing him disparaging fox executives, getting a reporter fired that was fact-checking. a former producer who claims there was a toxic work environment and sexual harassment going on. i will note that roger ailes, the founder of fox news, and bill o'reilly, who was the big star before tucker carlson, were shown the door of that company after sexual harassment claims
7:44 am
came forward so, the lawsuit by grossman seemed to be significant we don't know even now and tucker carlson, i don't think has said anything publicly why he's not there we still have more reporting to do dwl and yet, what he has said on air in the past, so inflammatory and conspiratconspiratorial the parent company of fox news dropped after carlson's departure game public, dipping more than 4% i don't know if that's happened with any other individual who is on-air does his exit change fox fundamentally? >> that's the open question. without a doubt, he was mainstreaming extremist views. including white nationalist tendties deni denialism. and to minimize the insurrection of january 6th
7:45 am
there doesn't seem to be anyone else at fox that extreme yet one of the things we saw, once bill o'reilly was gone, tucker rose to take his place in a more extremist voice. i think we can bet that there's material since tucker carlson is gone if history teaching us anything, once someone is gone, in order for the new person to stand out, they often take more extremist positions than the person they replaced >> that's a scary thought. thank you so much for sharing your insights. up next on "ana cabrera reports," a shaky cease-fire in sudan and a new warning of a risk of biological hazard there. app spacex's starship exploded in midair, why the program may be stuck on earth
