donald trump's victory speech as family, friends, campaign staff took to the stage and celebrated, we heard unusual thank yous you don't normally hear from any political campaign. here's ufc ceo, dana white . >> i want to thank some people real quick, aiden ross, theo vaughn , boston with the boys, last but not least, the mighty and powerful joe rogan! speed if you're not familiar with those names, shouting out some of the massive podcasters and life streamers that and paste and deplatformed donald trump during his campaign. that was not the first time trump used new media to his advantage. the new york times reported this week donald trump has been doing this all of his adult life from building his persona in the new york tabloids in the
7:02 pm
priestly 80s to the reality tv craze that spawned the apprentice and created the false impression he was actually a successful businessman. to being early adopter of twitter now called x. donald trump always a master media manipulation. all of the election postmortems how trump won the presidency again, we have to acknowledge despite being the oldest man ever elected president, donald trump was ahead of the curve in ever-changing media landscape. instead of subjecting himself to fact checking from the likes of 60 minutes, trump was able to reach tens of millions of american voters in eight fact- free, safe space, casual mixing talk of golf, drugs, whatever his campaign message. it paid off big time, not because of the sheer amount of voters he was able to reach but the type of voters he reached, younger voters and particularly younger men, the so-called bro vote. according to exit polling, trump picked up a larger proportion of voters under 30 that any
7:03 pm
republican presidential candidate since 2008 with men under 30, trump beat harris by two points after losing to joe biden with this very same group 11 points in 2020. the trump strategist credited with this idea is 18-year-old, barron trump. two sources familiar with the strategy told nbc news his youngest son behind the campaign pivot to influential male podcasters. told politico deep dive podcast in every recommendation he had turned out to be ratings gold that has broken the internet. joining me to weigh in on all of this. msnbc contributor and author of the latino spirit and what it means for america. writer for msnbc daily and host of sirius xm show. i will start with you, paula, the myth harris did not do in a
7:04 pm
podcast, she did her own, she was on call her daddy, shannon sharp's podcast, there are things out there she did, may not have done the roll vote ones but when out with the bro shows but she did her own. do you think there is merit to the idea trump's embrace of this type of cultural phenomena, media phenomena was different from the way the vice president did? >> i think so. he was doing that all the time constantly. think about his last day for the election, he was in pennsylvania, he looked at the crowd, i will go off teleprompter because i want to speak truth. that tells you what the strategy has been, over a year he has been speaking his version of truth in this other ecosystem for months and months. i think in that world is where the maga crowd has also been speaking their version of truth
7:05 pm
that never captured in the polls or numbers and stats and cable tv. a version of truth where they get to say what they want, whatever they want to expose their grievances, the sexism, misogyny to the point that perhaps, i was thinking about this, msg puerto rico, may be in our ecosystem, we were horrified by that because here we fact checked, point the audience toward moral clarity. in that ecosystem, it was so normalized. they have seen that language so long, it was not a huge blow for the trump campaign. >> she brings up interesting point about this comedian, tony hinchcliffe, made those comments about puerto rico being island of garbage in the middle of the ocean. everyone watching that was shocked. he is a comedian and has this shock factor. they brushed it off, it is not a thing, people who know him know that as his comedy. what does that tell you about the information streams in the
7:06 pm
country and the polarization that exists. >> we live in silos, not even the same planet. we share soil with people that get their data, news, comedy from different worlds. every now and then they intersect. what is going on? everyone knows him, friends tell me that. friends who know him from the comedy club world in new york, that is what he does. we are like this is outrageous. vice president harris joined the campaign late, we all know that. 2028, you will see democrats already running for the nomination, make podcasts, make wildly popular shows. the shows to go on. >> did you get either presidential candidates? >> not u.s. presidential candidates. other countries like palestinian. the other thing is, trump got two bites, the podcasts and the mainstream press for going on that.
7:07 pm
it was very effective in that way. joe rogan with 47 million people watched trump on youtube do that. you go on a show, except for years, most shows don't get those ratings on cable news anymore. >> me and joe rogan are going head-to-head, week to week it varies. speaking of joe rogan, i did not watch three hours of it, i could not watch three hours but i watched a lot of it. there is not a lot of fact checking, i get that, that is his style. his whole approach is to get to know the person. it is hard for me to imagine after nine years of donald trump on the scene, you get to know who donald trump is because also donald trump sells himself to whoever he is speaking to. he is different things to different people at any given moment. the idea you are getting to know the man is a bit of a stretch. that is how we build it. >> except for the fact people listen to the podcast were the ones in their teens maybe or younger when donald trump was first president.
7:08 pm
they are just getting to know him. i remember before the election, there was a tiktok trend that went around where gen z was just realizing about the access hollywood tape, that never seen it before, they had no idea what it was about. what is going on? i do think there's something to be said for trump introducing himself to these audiences. reading the new york times piece that you referenced, it only hit me that trump rallies, they are a stream of consciousness in need of an editor, they are a one-person podcast stream. no wonder it sounded so familiar, why he is so comfortable in this space and why so many people listening to him, whereas we listen to rallies, what he is talking about, picking up pieces that flow over them on the course of the three hours of joe rogan, little bits and pieces and clinging to what they are listening for as opposed to getting lost in the weeds like trying to figure out exactly what he is talking about. >> part of the postmortem analysis, i'm sure you've heard this as well, really excited
7:09 pm
about, where is the democrat, joe rogan, why don't the democrats have joe rogan? >> i'm sitting with you. >> joking aside, is that the right question? people have responded to that by pointing out, at one point, joe rogan was a fan of bernie sanders. the fact that the democratic party did not do more outreach to him, did not have a constant connection with him, so to speak, is probably a reason why they lost at the end. >> at the very least, we need to understand that world, talking about joe rogan. guess who is a big part of his audience? latinos, over 30% of his audience are latinos, young latino men. we were not talking about that either. i do think the fear is that, to your point, literally living in two realities. the day of the election, every single voter noted that democracy was the top issue. three out of four people said that they were concerned about the state of democracy. we all had completely different
7:10 pm
versions of what that threat meant because our ecosystems were so completely different in the way that we were talking about democracy. we better start understanding what they are saying because those are becoming the trusted voices that are shaping the way that people are thinking about democracy. that is important. >> what is your take on it? >> i agree that we should be listening to figure out what they are saying in these meetings. i think this is a new version of democrats, chasing, where are the conservatives talking, where they conversing on these issues? we need a version of that too. joe rogan was popular before his podcast, on a popular tv show, he was a game show host, he had an audience before the joe rogan podcast world of the right wing. >> it sounds like you're saying -- >> 2008.
7:11 pm
>> middle of the night, you saw that special. >> it is 2012, i'm not sure. it is fine. >> generally speaking about this kind of, i watched a lot of these podcasts, it is getting together and shooting the breeze about these topics. i don't want to say it is not journalistic, it has journalistic value because it gives insight into one's thinking. it does not replace actual journalism where there is fact checking. i feel like there was probably a specific reason why they wanted to do these because you are not getting fact checked in real time. >> absolutely, that is the conscious decision by donald trump to go on with joe rogan. you are not getting sacks, you're getting to know donald trump as a person, if you did not know him well and listen for three hours, whoever that person is, if you like it, they are like your friend. they have a connection unlike normal political person and
7:12 pm
someone with you or someone else, it is a personal connection and that is a winning strategy to get to know the person. >> is a peer --. social connection. i want to see what all the province it happened donald trump they think they know turned out to be someone entirely different. >> don't go away, a lot more to discuss the whole hour next, the newest white house chief influencer, it is not dean obeidallah . we tell you all about that. without talking with your doctor. tell your doctor if your asthma worsens. headache and sore throat may occur. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. step back out there with fasenra. ask your doctor if it's right for you.

7:17 pm
outsized role musk has played and could play in the next administration. musk reportedly working here illegally as undocumented immigrant for some time with his innumerable list of accomplishments. one prize he could never win, the presidency. the constitution bars immigrants from running no matter how successful there or forcefully they rail against open borders. lucky for him, donald trump has handed him the next best thing, a major stake in his presidency in exchange for $130 million worth of campaign donations. the richest person in the world has only become richer since trump won. on wednesday, he saw a huge surge and the pressure of tesla putting another $15 billion in his pocket. his company crossed the $1 trillion valuation for the first time in more than two years. my panel is back with me. what do you think of secretary of state elon musk? >> why not? >> apparently he was on the
7:18 pm
phone call not only with zelenskyy but also president or to one. >> i think there's a chance hulk hogan, kid rock. when we talk about the money elon musk invested, it is not a donation, he invested in this and got a return of $15 billion, he will get more returns, the federal government right now is investigating tesla for various things, discrimination, workers being injured at the workplace, that all ends, everything ends. this is the oligarchy that came to fruition in front of us with the richest man in america, he owns donald trump and will set policy on any issue. trump will say whatever you want, whatever he has for him. whatever you want, that is what you get. >> a few weeks ago, washington post reported for some time musk worked illegally in the united states.
7:19 pm
he has backed trump's immigration plans, went to the border, called for the deportation or supported trump, open the call for the mass deportation, the guardian recently ran op-ed called, the truth about immigration. elon musk shows borders are always open for the rich. how is he perceived in the communities you talk to and why does he have such a huge following generally? >> this is what scares me, completely manipulated the story, one of the first people that said there was invasion of the southern border and one of the first people spreading -- >> black t-shirt. >> that scares me, that is the fear of someone like him at the white house, capacity to manipulate the story. that is one of the best weapons authoritarian regimes have. that is the capacity to control the masses through the story. what happens if elon musk continues to do what he has been doing on the outside but on the inside? here goes this guy with his
7:20 pm
massive misinformation machine in the white house can a person that has already, i believe, manipulated to the point that it helped donald trump win the white house. what will happen if he does that in a way that is more institutionalized in the white house? that scares me. >> you called them the perfect avatar for plutocratic policies, elon musk, such a perfect description of him. how do you begin to untangle him, dean was laying out, paola ramos laying out, billions of dollars of contracts with the american government for defense purposes, all other purposes, starlink was relied on, a lot of issues overseas, foreign- policy -wise. medications with vladimir putin, involved in the disinformation leading to the campaign, giving trump money, may be assigned government efficiency thing if you want to believe that under trump, how do you untangle this guy from everything?
7:21 pm
>> here's my prediction, right now is at some point donald trump's ego will clash with elon musk's ego. two very powerful people, i think one of the best, i saw the run up to the election, former national security staffer talking about oligarchies and meritocracy in russia comparing that to the u.s., mentioned how elon and trump see themselves as different class. while they have a strong reason to work together right now, i can see a world where elon makes trump upset at some point or vice versa and you see clashes between them. trump has the federal government behind him. he says that he will turn up the regulations for elon to pay them back but trump could try to turn those back on. if you want makes him mad, ramp those investigations into tesla back up again. this is a problem that the fact donald trump being up the wheel, he is extremely powerful, even with elon musk next to
7:22 pm
him. disentangling elon, something they will fight among themselves about. i don't see how, unless there's a huge sweet in the midterms two years from now and congress tries to take action in a real way, i don't see them being pulled apart at all. >> what are your thoughts? >> oligarchy, i interviewed christopher steele before the election, the steele dossier, expert on russia, he was there for the and the six, he predicted if trump won, go down the path of putin -type oligarchy. the oligarchs on trump's side beneficiary and more wealth. if anyone dares to cross him, trump makes an example of that person, the same way putin did, perhaps jail. trump versus u.s. supreme court decision, they put in writing, he has exclusive control to talk to the doj who to prosecute and to not to prosecute. trump can use that legally did go after people. if they clash, the question is,
7:23 pm
does trump care enough? he plays golf every day and sign things, have a cheeseburger and diet coke and be happy about it? does he engage that much and fight with elon musk? or worse, elon, go cut $3 trillion, cut social security and medicare. >> the problem is elon musk's one person and may be because he is in his own right a bit of a celebrity with his company and profile, i'm more worried about the people behind the scenes, the people that we don't know, the people working for years on behalf of trump. and who have much more, i don't want to say more sinister agendas but perhaps more specific agendas we don't know about they may be setting in motion . >> that also scares me, the first administration there was some form of guardrails, some form of established politicians or career in politicians in the white house attempting to slow down trump, attempting to ensure
7:24 pm
that his worst instincts would not be exposed. now we are staring at the possibility, elon musk and who knows, that idea of trump without rails is pretty scary. >> i think one of the things interesting to watch is how actually effective these people are. project 2025, one of the things that is fun about that, completely clashing ideas between chapters about things that are important to the conservative movement. given the amount of infighting we saw the first trump administration, when priorities are going to clash, it comes down to trump/pence up to decide and he likes to pick people against each other. i think we are afraid right now of how they will handle the wheels of government having done this like once before for the trump administration to get the hang of it. they are still there worst enemy in terms of actually effectively turning whatever trump says into policy and vice versa, getting trump to care
7:25 pm
about whatever they care about. >> there are two schools of thought, one it is authoritarian government, you think it is a clown show. >> both could be a problem. most authoritarian governments are clown shows when you look at history. internal conflict >> he wants to go after the people that prosecuted him. he actually said, trump is a good guy but i'm not. if trump is the good guy and you are the bad guy, this is deeply scary because trump might say, do what you want. that is a concern. >> don't go anywhere, we squeeze in a quick break. winding down the trump criminal cases. t common arrhythmias in just 30 seconds, including atrial fibrillation, bradycardia and tachycardia. check your heart with the most advanced personal ekg outside the hospital. get yours at kardia.com or amazon.

prosecutions, two impeachments, and failed insurrection. trump won the presidency and get out of free jail card. winding down the cases against him, the judge overseeing election interference case canceled remaining court deadlines on friday. this came after special counsel jack smith requested a pause on the process. smith and the doj are working to close this case and trump's classification place by january. if they don't do it on time, trump can end the federal cases. the supreme court immunity decision and his win, officially out ran all four criminal cases, he may never face accountability for anything he has done or will do during a second term in office. my panel is with me. a lot of people pointing the finger have pointed the finger squarely on one man, merrick garland, the attorney general for slow rolling this from day one. let me read to you what politico wrote about merrick garland
7:31 pm
citing delays per serving his prosecution. he writes, garland's defenders over the years claimed that government and the department were following standard bottom- up investigative effort. prosecutor start with the rioters on this and ended up with trump. it never made sense, it did not reflect unwritten playbook for criminal investigations. specific relation to january 6th and insurrection that donald trump inspired. what do you make of that argument? >> it is a pretty compelling argument. the fact they were trained to sell the idea of we will get these low-level people first and work our way out. the way that never materialized, even throughout the january 6th house hearings, the reporting at the time was congress was here, really shook the justice department, we should do something about this. the biggest what happens of merrick garland had decided to start the process earlier and
7:32 pm
we got the same amount of delay tactics from trump lawyers because that was always going to be the issue. they ran out the clock this time. i think it is hard to say for certain the next year or two, they would not manage to keep pushing this back further and further. the immunity case, so many loopholes, so many steps that could have been done afterwards, get back to the supreme court again and again, jack smith initial hearings that they canceled figuring out what was immune activity and what wasn't, that would work its way to the appeal process and supreme court and started the process over. that is my big question, how much would their delays run out the clock? >> the only reason why we invited you on the show, you are a lawyer, i believe. >> what are your questions? go ahead. >> from a legal perspective, from day one, was merrick garland, where the democrats
7:33 pm
and merrick garland too lenient pursuing all of the various legal cases that were presented against donald trump? >> let me put it this way, merrick garland is the greatest failure of attorney general in the modern era. no joking, very serious. he was sworn in march 2021, the first and you should've done was appointed special counsel. to investigate donald trump for january 6th. that would change the tone, republicans had not coalesced around donald trump. trump was at cpac before garland was sworn in, it may be running, that could've ended because every republican would know, he will be charged soon. they would note the supreme court is not delaying things. he will be convicted felon and may be in jail and embolden other republicans, maybe just maybe they push him away. what merrick garland did, he did not appoint special counsel to investigate for almost two years, jack smith. trump is running. what does that do, it normalized trump for two years.
7:34 pm
we are out there saying that trump attended a two, incited a terrorist attack. everyone else is going, why isn't he charged? it is two years later, if it is that serious. merrick garland undermined all of our oral arguments and democratic members of congress wanted to look forward, in covid and focus on that. i kept taking them, call for prosecuting donald trump for attempting coup, it is not partisan, it is patriotism. he attempted a coup, incited a terrorist attack and to be back in the white house, destroys everything this country should stand for, the rule of law, people do that, how can he be on the ballot is the question and here we are. >> perhaps what is worse is him potentially pardoning january 6th insurrectionist's. you had a defender, january 6th rioter that demanded a full pardon after trump's win in the big sentence being sentenced eight years in prison. it is something trump has said that he is open to doing. what does that do to our
7:35 pm
society when you have a president that comes in and hardens people that the entire country saw storming the capitol with intent to overthrow our government were to stop the electoral process? >> normalizes violence. i can't help but think about [ speaking in a global language ] because i spent so much time with him before four years ago. now i can't help but think about the fact of what is going to happen when i have to face him again. the revenge that so many of them will feel and how that will manifest in the violence. trump loves to defy logic and get everyone to believe that these people deserve mercy. i think that our job is to ground people back into that feeling we all felt for a second collectively, that moral clarity every single person felt when we saw the mob storming the capitol. to your point, can we go back to that feeling? is there a collective, does
7:36 pm
that exist among us? i keep thinking about that all the time. >> one of the worst things pardoning these people is to incentivize others to commit crimes on behalf of donald trump in the future. he is saying, i got your back. you could storm duck capitol, beat a police officer to death in my name to keep me in power. even though i lost the election, i will pardon you and everyone else here is that. private militias where people come after anyone that criticizes trump thinking he has their back. >> what he make up, take a step back, a person granted immunity by the supreme court, he has a popular mandate to govern, a person that demonstrated willing to pardon criminals and criminals in his inner circle. he is a person that seems to have people making revenge lists of people he wants to go after. it is a recipe for very dangerous second term, how concerned are you? >> pretty concern, combining two of those things, the ability to pardon, unchecked power already under the
7:37 pm
constitution with the immunity decision, one of the things the immunity decisions is by proxy is that you can't bring up official acts as evidence, you can then pardon them as official evidence by wrongdoing of the president. >> offering pardons as bribes. >> exactly. the only check would be congress because bribery listed as high crimes and misdemeanors in the constitution for impeachment. if you have a republican in congress, what does that matter at this point? conger is not willing to use the tools before it, trump will do whatever he wants to do at this point without fear of criminal prosecution afterward. the delineation between official acts and unofficial acts now that trump will be president again, the number of things we can argue our official exponentially grows compared to the list of things we were looking at before, which was that narrow window between just before the election and during that time before he was out of office. when he was a candidate,
7:38 pm
campaigning for president, those were the unofficial ask looking at's criminal. he will have so much more leeway now. >> dangerous time as we have said throughout the course of the evening. dean obeidallah , great to see you, my friend. send us the bill for your legal advice. we will get the check to you as soon as possible. stick around, a lot more to discuss. miebo is the only prescription dry eye drop that forms a protective layer for the number one cause of dry eye: too much tear evaporation. for relief that's ♪ miebo ohh yeah ♪ remove contact lenses before using miebo. wait at least 30 minutes before putting them back in. eye redness and blurred vision may occur. what does treating dry eye differently feel like? ♪ miebo ohh yeah ♪ for relief that feels ♪ miebo ohh yeah ♪ ask your eye doctor about prescription miebo. some days, you can feel like a spectator

7:42 pm
tonight, something a little different for our worst of the week that reflects the worst and best of the week and this country. going into tuesday's election, trump continued basically spreading rumors of voter fraud in swing states like pennsylvania. even on election day, trump was still lying about massive cheating there. guess what, hours later, trump and republicans pulled a 180 from pre-emptively done denying the election results to wholeheartedly embracing them after they won. yes, they are disingenuous, yes, their commitment to the truth is conditional. american democracy stood firm this week thanks to democrats
7:43 pm
who did not deny the results just because they did not like the outcome. they did not push insane conspiracy theories about hugo chavez, venezuela or dominion voting machines. no, they respected democracy by swiftly accepting trump's win and committing to a peaceful transfer of power. >> a fundamental principle of american democracy is that when we lose an election, we accept the results. anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it. >> yesterday, i spoke with president-elect trump to congratulate him on his victory . i assured him i would direct my entire administration to work with his team to ensure a peaceful and orderly transition. the country chooses one or the other. we accept the choice our country made. i have said many times, you can't love your country only when you win. >> hopefully, this idea of
7:44 pm
lying about rigged presidential elections in this country died with donald trump's win. we can only hope. paola and haynes are back with me. a little different this week because we had this stark contrast of how democrats handle defeat and loss compared to how donald trump handled it four years ago. what do you make of, i guess this master class by democrats on how a democracy, certainly our democracy should function one results are announced and we know that we have a new winner? >> the first person and they can about his kari lake because kari lake will lose and is losing, i don't know if it has been called yet but she will lose her race. donald trump will win her state. what will she do? >> he will throw her under the bus. >> i think that democracy won
7:45 pm
because the democrats reinforced the idea that unfortunately, has had to be reminded to a public that no longer believed in democratic institutions, it reinforced that yes, democracy prevailed. unfortunately, through this picture, democracy, an ugly part of america has been exposed. that is also part of the exercise, these democratic institutions, that the democratic process shows you a very clear picture of who the voters are and here we are. >> what do you make of it? >> what republicans did to do such a quick 180 on their claims. i read this week that i braced for one worst-case scenario we would have a very close election and slug it out and troubled everything possible to steal the election again. no, he did not have to. he did not have to do any of the things i was worried about. the thing that will stick with me, thinking about how hopefully this is the end of things, no, the narrative we are going to see is that the old story, this is anti-tiger
7:46 pm
rock, what do you mean, do you see tigers around here? they will say that the election integrity investments worked. democrats would cheat again if we let them that we were strong and capable. we have to stay vigilant next time to go to make sure that they don't cheat again like they did in 2020. you are already seeing the way that some of the conspiracy theorist out there say, the fact that she lost this time by so many votes, votes are not being done counted yet, shows that they cheated in 2020. the lies are not going to stop, they will transform and transfigure. as long as the only acceptable outcome is republicans win, that is going to be whatever the narrative needs to be. >> speaking of that, interestingly enough, outlier for republicans was elon musk, who posted after trump's victory, quote, the few states that did not go red are mostly ones without voter i.d. requirements. it must be a coincidence.
7:47 pm
i guess he did not get the memo they stopped talking about voter fraud now that they won. they want to move on. >> they can't vote. let's see what happens. to me, what this election has really crystallized is how fundamentally different we have changed in the last four years because of the way the lies have been so deeply embedded. on tuesday when people were voting and voting with these lies in their minds and as a democracy, yes we won but we are so fractured in that sense because of these lies. >> let me ask you about something about a point that they have accepted the results of the selection, they will keep the groundwork, they will have that, the next cycle they lose, they can go back to it. how likely are they going to use the trifecta of control of government they have the supreme court, the senate, maybe the house after the
7:48 pm
counting is finally done and the presidency, to try and pass or push through voter suppression in new ways? >> that is a good question considering that i think a lot of it comes down to what they think will pass into legislation. whether they try to kill the filibuster themselves, republicans in the senate because democrats will absolutely, as long as the filibuster is there as a tool, try to block major legislation to the road voting rights, to try to put up their own version, their own bazaar version of the freedom of the vote act that actually narrows who is able to vote. the state act will come back under trump. i think they will push as hard as they can and we will see what they managed to agree on enough to put into law. >> paola ramos, hayes brown, always a pleasure. thank you for coming, love to have you at the studio. saturday night, she had something better to do.
7:49 pm

before we go, i want to end tonight with a message about what democrats can do. it is so easy to give in to despair in a moment like this but that is what trump and his allies want. no one seems to understand that more than kamala harris, who delivered this message on wednesday. >> while i concede this election, i do not concede the fight that fueled this
7:54 pm
campaign. the fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness, and the dignity of all people, a fight for the ideals at the heart of our nation. the ideals that reflect america at our best. that is a fight i will never give up. do not despair, this is not a time to throw up our hands, this is a time to roll up our sleeves. >> it was a message harris repeated, mentioning the word fight nearly 20 times in her speech. hours after trump's victory, caliburn the governor gavin newsom issued a proclamation convening a special session of the state legislature to safeguard california's values and fundamental rights. anticipating trump administration attacks on reproductive freedom, climate action, immigrant families, gavin newsom said, california has faced this challenge before and we know how to respond, we are prepared and will do

everything necessary to ensure that californians have the support and resources they need . one by one, more democratic governors stepped up to reassure their constituents. >> if there is any attack on the garden state or any of its communities from washington, i will fight back with every fiber of my being . >> to anyone that intends to come take away the freedom and opportunity and dignity of illinoisans, i would remind you that a happy warrior is still a warrior. you come for my people, you come through me. >> one massachusetts governor maura healey was asked by my colleague if she would accept trump's request to help with mass deportations, this is what she had to say -- >> if the trump administration requested, with the massachusetts state police assist in mass deportations? >> no, absolutely not.
7:56 pm
>> last but not least, we also heard from harris' running in america's coach, minnesota governor tim walz. >> a moment they try to bring a hateful agenda to the state, i am ready to stand up and fight for the way we do things here. >> american civil liberties union has also bowed to fight back against trump's agenda saying, we filed 434 legal actions against trump while he was in office and we will do it again. outlooks like propublica responsible for the bombshell reporting on the supreme court scandals and rolling stone also released statement vowing to hold the trump administration accountable. it is going to be income but on everyone to not give up and not to give in to trump's dark agenda. our politicians, institutions, and the media, we can't do it alone, but we can do it. trump won but the fight for this country is not over. not by a long shot thank you
7:57 pm
