>> for sure brett kavanaugh is. for sure. i don't know enough about amy barrett to know if she lives in a bubble of her own views and has just, the bubble happens to be exactly the bubble the federalist society folks were looking for and liked and wanted to get onto the court but i know brett kavanaugh do what he was doing. brett kavanaugh did this stuff for president bush and that is how he got to know leonard leo who was organizing the outside money and influence over those appointments. if you want to know the power of this operation even early on, remember a woman named harriet myers, harriet myers was white house counsel for president bush, very conservative, female when it would do good to put another female judge on the court and very conservative and she knew him personally and she's around them every day. up goes her name as the nominee and the president had to affect the humiliating withdrawal of her name because of the pressure not from us, not from the left but the far right saying no she might be another suitor.

there was an assassination attempt on supreme court justice brett kavanaugh and there is a law that prohibitse home of a justice to indimitate that judge. that's what we saw last night. we drove out to kavanaugh's home. covering this protest. we talked to some of the marshalls. they told us the protestors are not breaking the law because they were on the sidewalk. i talked to legal experts who said that's just plain wrong. the defendant of justice declined to enforce this law and maryland has declined to enforce this law but a federal law says you can't picket or parade outside the home of a judge to influence or intimidate that judge. >> sean: that's a good point. they are not enforcing it. we see that every day at the southern border as well. >> absolutely. >> sean: great reporting. we have a lot more news to cover. vice-president harris is under fire again tonight after omitting right to life after citing a quote from our declaration. abortion is legal in america. it goes back to the states. they decide what the law s. the elected representative of the people of every state. take a look. >

as it has to do with the sexual assault allegations against justice brett kavanaugh. leged in the documentary. the documentary alleges that the fbi failed to reach out to 4000, 500 people who sent intense prior to kavanaugh's -- and, said those tips went to the white house. we know what happened once those steps went to the white house, don't worry,? isn't this more proof positive that the scotus confirmation processes to be overhauled, and there has to be an exterior force, and exterior entity that is watching what's happening. >> absolutely. it would be nice if we knew. what was in those 4500 tips. i understand that there was a back on investigation, and it was requested by the white house, that's what this procedure is -- the white house, donald trump, was the very entity that desperately wanted brett confidant on the supreme court. they didn't care what miss contact teammate have displayed in that disqualified to sit as a justice. he is a difference in nauseating. 4500 citizens put themselves in the line, and call themselves -- as brett kavanaugh was an suitability

she compared it to justice brett kavanaugh, but she said essentially it is really personal because she she's governor, but she's a mom, sister, she's a wife. she talked about what that was like and she said she is very much fazed by what happened to her. >> in recent weeks two of the men who were essentially co-conspirators in the plot to kidnap you were sentenced, respectfully 19 1/2 years, one to 16. what did you make of that? >> well, i think that it's important to have accountability and i filed a victim impact statement, because i think it's important to understand, i'm an ordinary person. i've got an extraordinary job, i have served in extraordinary times, but i'm a many mom, i'm daughter, i'm an average person who is trying to serve my state. and the heightened threats that we are now seeing rampant across this country are scary. it's important that people are held accountable. so whether it is someone harassing, you know, supreme court justice brett kavanaugh, or congressman fred upton here in michigan or me or our attorney general or secretary of state, it's unacceptable. so i

the leaks consequences which included the arrest of a man prosecutors say plan to kill justice brett kavanaugh. and that situation, as we all know, got real serious. >> got real serious with the assassination attempt on justice kavanaugh. they've also push for answers on the investigation. there are many secrets in this town. but for some reason, this individual has certainly been sheltered. >> and there absolutely i think evidence that there are specific people they know who this person is and why they have been identified at this point is behind me, the leak and the ultimate decision to overturn roe and leave abortion to the states has ushered in a patchwork of abortion laws at the state level. >> according to the abortion rights aligned, good mocker institute and public reporting post road. 24 states have restricted or are likely to restrict abortion. recent polls like one by pew in july's show 62% of the public supporting abortion rights in all or most cases. and that comes as several states either through ballot initiatives or state courts have protected the right to abortion or blocked f

last year, including the arrest of a man charged with attempted murder near the home of justice brett kavanaughne. we have more. security seems to be top of mind for roberts as we begin the new year. >> right. you are absolutely right. he stressed in this year-end report about judicial security. the safety of judges. he wrote very generally. he put it in historical perspective. look back in the suffcivil righ era. judges wrote unpopular opinions and faced threats. he expressed why that is such -- that is of such concern. he wrote in this report, a judicial system cannot and should not live in fear. what was really interesting about this report is roberts really steered clear, completely, from the tumultuous year we just had at the supreme court. he made no mention of any of that. it was a big term. he didn't explain why judges' safety is so in the news right now. that's because, as you know, back in may, there was the leak of the draft opinion. that triggered nationwide protests. some of the protests were in front of the justices' homes. as you said, a man was picked up in the neighborhood of j

congressional republicans playing baseball and attempted assassination of supreme court justice brett kavanaugh and paul pelosi january 6th. and on and on and on. it does seem more prevalent on the right against democrats than republicans but either way, there is too much of it. how did we get here? >> well,l like you said, violen rhetoric used by elected officials is always inexcusable and regardless of what party the individual using it is affiliated with that beg said, donald trump invited solomon pena's of the world into the republican party and become what is referred to as the maga wing and these individuals really have what seems to be like this apocalypse apo apocalypse fetish. they believe elections were stolen and it's changing the makeup of the country and taking rights away from them and it has brought about reaction. if you look at the individuals arrested on january 6 fth, the patriots, individuals whose backgrounds were filled with criminal history such as spousal abuse, felony assaults, those were the individuals that donald trump welcomed into the republican party and that make

at a protest outside their homes and at an alleged aa saws nation plot against justice brett kavanaughme now, a member of the supreme court bar. mark, thanks so much for joining us. i want to get to some of the cases. first off, title 42. that'll be, i think, in february. when you look at what has had some opposition at the court, neil gorsuch in his dissent against continuing with title 42, he said the court should not be in the business of perpetuating administrative edicts designed for one emergency because the elected officials failed to address that emergency. how much do you expect title 42 to make, remain in place considering you've got some serious court oppositionsome he was joined in his dissent -- not in the wording of it, but in general -- with other liberal justices. >> well, the title 42 the supreme court case can really is about who gets to make these decisions involving border security. now, what we have before the supreme court is over a dozen states argue that they are stakeholders because, to the extent that border security is nonif existent, they are the ones that w

in front of justices homes across the country, and there was even a man picked up in justice brett kavanaugh'sr. chief justice john roberts in this didn't mention that at all, and he also didn't update the country on where we are in the investigation that he launched looking into that leak, right. it's been some eight months. a lot of people said maybe he's going to use this report to sort of say where we are. he didn't. one more thing, pam, that's important is the area of ethics, right. because public opinion of the supreme court is at an all-time low and a lot of people look at the fact that you and i have discussed this for years, at the supreme court there really isn't a code of conduct that is targeting the justices itself. the justices get to decide when they want to recuse from particular cases, and that brings up questions for a lot of people. they thought maybe in this new report he would unveil something, new ethics guidelines, and he didn't. >> yeah. i mean, that was a big question with justice thomas, whether he should recuse himself in certain cases involving january 6th, given wh

the understanding that we were likely going to see the overturning of roe, quite honestly after brett kavanaugh appointed to the supreme court we knew that it was coming. so a lot of us in states around the country as attorneys general that we were not going to enforce these abortion bans that would criminalize what had been a legal medical procedure for nearly 50 years in the united states. and now, as state attorneys general in an environment where obviously roe is now technically no longer the law of the land, and you have some states where it is legal like it is in michigan now since the voters took back are right and codified reproductive rights into our constitution, we have made it a priority to make sure that not only are we protecting people who live in our states, but we will also be protecting people who come to our states in order to access critical health care, which is what abortion care is. >> attorney general, you have refused and forced michigan's 1931 abortion law which makes performing the procedure a felony. in september, a store state court declared the law unconstitutional

i get that she wasn't home, but one would think that given there was an attempted murder of brett kavanaughhis home earlier that year, that this would be fortified to the hilt at all times, including human security. and i will leave it here, by the way. why was depape even in the country? he should have been deported years ago. he overstayed his visa by 14 years, sean. i'm glad paul pelosi will be okay. he did a great job de-escalating the situation. but if we had the body cam footage out in november instead of now, all these crazy conspiracy theories never would have come to light. >> sean: that was a great point, very good point. gregg jarrett, jason chaffetz, thank you, as well. we go back to memphis where our own gianno caldwell is live. apparently has one of the protesters with him. what's going on? >> yes, he was just telling me he is concerned that, even though this is peaceful right now, that the rage could start at any time. >> there's lot of hurt in the streets of memphis, tennessee, right now. this is organized noise, but for all the people who are just seeing the tapes of the yo

in june, nicholas russki was arrested outside the home of justice brett kavanaugh after he admitted thathe came from california to maryland to assassinate justice kavanaugh. we did not have a hearing on that, but we are having a hearing based on defamatory statements. mr. paoletta, thank you for being here today. you saw the coverage of the supreme court earlier i believe? what do you think the protests were designed to accomplish? >> the protests, beginning in part with senator schumer standing on the steps of the supreme court, and in my view, physically threatening justices kavanaugh and gorsuch, and telling them if they rule a certain way that they will pay the consequences, they won't know what hit them. so we also have to remember it went back to senator schumer making that threat on the steps of the supreme court about what kind of case there's an abortion case. and all of these threats, all of these protests, are designed to intimidate the justices, but even more so fear for their life. i mean to intimidate them as justices, but fear for their life. that is what justices have aro
