i think the aclu has made the decision not to represent people who want to march with guns because of the concern about the eminence of violence. but you have to look at the fact that you had protests after the charlottesville rallies where people came, and there were white nationalists speaking but it was ultimately peaceful. you don't want to take these terrible events and use them as reasons to squelch any kind of speech, regardless of how offensive it. is >> i think if to be careful about avoiding guilt by association. that was a play in the and double acp play where at the supreme court citing brandenburg refused to hold the entire organization culpable in a huge amount of damages that the lower courts had upheld because of an incendiary speech given by one of its leaders. for those who care about the naacp and it's civil rights work it's important that the court ruled that way because of the lower court decision had been's abstained it would have bankrupted the organization and stop that from its civil rights advocacy. >> the reaction of the decision at the time in cincinnati, o

i think that's why the aclu was filing suit. and that's why you see people saying this is being staged by the trump administration to provoke confrontation as political theater to try and stir up his base. it seems to me to be unnecessary. local government should handle it. >> gillian: all right,atie, mark morgan also confirm some of the folks out on the street are rapid response units. those are federal agents. critics of the government's handling of these rights say it's an over response. what this is actually doing is exacerbating the situation on the ground. what say you? >> katie: well, if you take a look at what they are protecting, they are protecting federal officers and the federal courthouse building. in portland, the anarchists surrounded the building, tried to block off exits to the building, and then threw in fireworks and other things that could set the building on fire in an effort to kill these agents or severely injure them. if you remember back when this whole thing started and these protests kicked off and bec

the aclu has filed a lawsuit trying to stop immigrant children from being expelled back to the countries they fled. aclu attorneys say the trump administration had been secretly holding children in unknown hotels in texas refusing to give them access to lawyers. they arrived at the border without their parents. citing directives from the cdc. two attorneys say this he were violently shoved into a hotel elevator by private security contractors after trying to offer help to the children who were seeking asylum. >>> former president jimmy carter will no longer be teaching sunday school in georgia due to the coronavirus pandemic. for nearly 40 years mr. carter has taught at the mayor natha baptist church in plains, georgia. the current pandemic coupled with the 39th's president's age have made it difficult to continue the sunday tradition. the 95-year-old first began teaching as a teenager. >>> coming up the race to find a vaccine. where we are on the search and what's the plan if we don't have one by early next year? >>> plus a true miracle in the midst of the pandemic. the remarkable story

sometimes things go back in the other direction and the aclu enjoining michael side in this fight ofreau of prisons and the justice department did to him for the crime of writing a book against the president. the aclu said in its pleading to the court on cohen's behalf that this case sat at the zenith of first amendment protections. today what the judge said on behalf of michael cohen is that that's true. and in this case the first amendment should win. joining us now is an attorney for michael cohen who represented him in this matter. ms. perry, i appreciate you being here tonight. i appreciate the trust it takes to be here. >> i'm thrilled to be here, rachel. thank you so much. thrilled with the judge's decision tonight. thrilled that michael will be home tomorrow with his family. >> i have read some from the transcript of how the proceeding went today, including some of your back and forth with the judge. i also read some from the ruling. let me ask if i got any of that wrong or misconstrued it. what do you think is the most important thing people should understand about this case

the aclu will be in court again to hold federal agents accountable. and the oregon attorney general said if the state of oregon does not have standing, who does? nick, you have traveled i think everywhere in the world. i don't know if there is anywhere that you haven't been. i have been looking at these scenes of american cities since the night after george floyd died. if you and i were in other countries reporting on this thing, we would be reporting on authorities that are silencing dissent, that are targeting in some cases journalists who are not letting observers know what's going on. i haven't seen video in america of anything like this since the '60s. we see this in other parts of the world, not in america usually. >> that's right. i use my gas mask in all kinds of countries across the world covering democratic movements. and it's not something we typically do here. i do think that ultimately what is going to matter is not only the legal courts but also the court of public opinion. and i see that -- i mean, there is a struggle over the narrative

will not answer and the aclu does not have the answer to those questions.hat lawyers will tell you, lawyer likes lindsey will tell you that those hotels are being used as holding areas to expel children who have come to this country by themselves immediately without the legal protections, the due process protections the united states government is supposed to afford them. and that is the crux of why immigration activists and attorneys are so upset at what you're looking at right now on your screen. >> lindsey, help us understand how this fits into the larger conversation we've been having about changes to asylum rules, the conversations we've been having about keeping migrant children with their parents. what are you thinking as you watch this footage? >> well, this footage is terrifying, and my heart just breaks for these children who i imagine are incredibly scared and confused about what is happening to them. they're being held incommunicado in hotel rooms as another level in the trump administration's campaign to completely dismantle asylum protections

but sometimes things go back in the other direction, and the aclu in actually joining michael cohen's this fight against what the bureau of prisons and the justice department did to him for the crime of writing a book about the president, the aclu said in its pleading to the court on cohen's behalf that this was -- this case sat at the zenith of first amendment protections. today what the judge said on behalf of michael cohen is that that's true, and in this case the first amendment should win. joining us now is danya perry. she is the attorney for michael cohen who represented him in this matter. i really appreciate you making time to be here tonight. i know this is the first interview you've done since representing mr. cohen in these matters. i appreciate the guts it takes to be here. >> i'm thrilled to be here, rachel. thank you so much. thrilled with the judge's decision today. thrilled that michael cohen will be home tomorrow with his family. >> i read some from the transcript of how the proceeding went today including some of the back and forth with the judge. i also just read s

the aclu already sued the portland police, the local police. that portland police department has had some real excesses and there is a reason they're under federal constraint in terms of what kind of use of force they can have. but the judges now said the aclu can add federal agencies to it and a u.s. attorney for oregon is calling for investigation into those protester arrests. is that enough? or does more have to be done to figure out what the heck is going on here? >> well, more has to be done. every american should be offended what they have seen tonight, actually terrified. trump is using his federal forces as a personal paramilitary force. that is what dictators do. that is not what presidents of a democratic republic do. i can tell you that we pursued this question of who are these people. i talked to the u.s. marshalls office. they said they were marked. and then it appeared these folks were custom and border protection agents and they were the ones sweeping people off the street. and we got a replay from mark morgan, the commissioner w

the aclu says president trump can't pick and choose who gets counted. earlier the administration tried to add a citizenship question to the census, but the supreme court blocked it. new legal challenges are expected. >>> once again, the bay area is the epicenter of social change and controversy. last night's giants/a's game is getting national attention, including a comment from president trump. giants manager gabe kapler, along with a handful of players, took a knee during the national anthem. this was at the coliseum. trying to shed light on police brutality towards people of color. kapler becomes the first baseball manager to take a knee. then there's this today, president trump tweeting, any time i witness a player kneeling during the national anthem, a sign of great disrespect for our country and our flag, the game is over. released this statement saying in part, i'm very grateful to be part of an organization that supports their players for expressing what they believe in and i am proud to be a giant. >> we could see more of the same today. the ba

the aclu complaints in 1936, about groups that do not want to go to war. they want to make sure the united states does not come involved with anything it's going to happen over there. so fdr seems nothing wrong, with groups and noting his house had been bombed in 1919. moreover fdr is looking into political pawns as well, in particular he has the ftc i investigate several senators, and public figures including charles limburg. olive who oppose any intervention in europe. hoover learned from this experience, that he can curry favor, and gain leverage by digging into any precedence enemies, or perceived enemies. for example he never blackmail's kennedy brothers, but he does give robert kennedy, attorney general monthly updates, and all the people that he knows the accusations against, him. and on the one hand, perhaps this is some helpful personal knowledge, that robert kennedy can use, but it also ensures that the kennedy knows, that hoover knows he knows everything. he knows everything that everybody is doing so the kennedy's have the inclination, to shut
