also ahead, i'll talk with drk congresswoman cory bush who shared firsthand the emotional weight of deciding to get an abortion. her reaction and what it means for a woman's right to choose. >>> joint base andrews, a source familiar with the matter telling nbc news that the president is expected to make brief remarks in the wake of the politico leak at jba before heading to alabama. he's left the white house. so expect that in about 15 minutes at motorcade speed to joint base andrews. joining me is nbc's ali vitali on capitol hill, nbc's pete williams, nbc's carol reeves at the white house and garrett haake in austin, texas. also with me to do, barbara mcquade, former u.s. attorney and law professor at the university of michigan law school, also an msnbc legal analyst. ali, i want to start with you. we got reaction from republican senator susan collins, a key yes vote for some of these more conservative justices. let's talk about what she said and how she feels they mislead her. >> in her statement she says that if this leaked draft is true, that it would be inconsistent with what two of tho

congressman cori bush for example we talked about a lot over the course of this debate because she sharedabortion. it's what she reminded people of today. here is what she said. >> here is my message for anyone trying to take away anyone's bodily autonomy. if you're for life, you would support universal paid leave. if you're for life, you would support livable wages. if you are for life, you would support affordable child care and housing. you would support the constitutional right to abortion. >> reporter: and so look, you hear congressman cori bush making the argument others made on the democratic side of this saying if you're going to force a woman to carry a pregnancy to term, what are you doing for her and frankly that child after that baby is born? it's a question that has been asked throughout this entire debate on the issue. i do think, though, based on my scoop from senator elizabeth warren and the other dozen plus democrats that signed the letter. we have a sense now of where lawmakers can take this. we know, of course, they were blocked on the overall largr codification bill. w

cory bush has just come out and said she would support that. it is notable that that is the kind of bill democrats are looking to get pine now, and not something as it relates to gun reform, something democrats have not been successful in doing previously. >> because it speak to the tone and tenor of what's possible. yes, the democrats have the majorities in the house and senate, but not enough of majorities to move forward on things like gun violence prevention bills, and that's why you're seeing the house take up as swiftly as they can this domestic terror task force bill that would do things like bolster security for hbcus when we've seen increased threat levels at those locations. congresswoman cory bush saying that to me, it comes after she and others of the progressive squad negotiated for certain civil rights and civil liberties within this bill. she told us first she was going to be on board for this, and it means now it's most likely going to be all democrats voting for this domestic terror bill. there might be one or two people holdin

. >> with us now is representative cori bush of missouri. not to retraumatize you. you know, we've talked about this before though. i mean, the idea that people like ron johnson and ted cruz are focusing on the protests, the protesters saying they are the real problem and trying to deflect attention, when at the same time states are passing laws that would have said that the -- that you've talked about your situation of being a rape victim, of being pregnant, the laws they want to put in place would have ordered and demanded by state command that you give birth to your -- you know, your victimizer's child, and i just wonder how you feel listening to these men stand around and say, well, this isn't a big problem. the real problem is the protests. >> you know, the fact that they would even compare january 6th to any actual protest, let's just say any protest first of all is them trying to deflerkts but, you know, the idea that i would have to carried a child and raised a child being in a place where i was broken emotionally and mentally and also broke financially and

congressman cori bush of missouri spelled out the purpose of the bill which is of course entirely politicallican party has become the party of unfettered white supremacist violence." so there was only one republican who voted for this bill, and that is a man who has become completely undone and whose total destruction as a man really does deserve your pity, and that is adam kinzinger. here is what he said he voted for it. >> people like marjorie taylor greene, you know, people like matt gaetz, mo brooks, the folks you think about, they are almost leading -- i would argue that they are leading the republican caucus, and so kevin mccarthy, elise stefanik, instead of leaving, as their title, leadership, which suggest they do, they are basically tolerating this all in the name of hopefully i become speaker someday. you can't fund raise, you can't live on fear because eventually you are going to create fearful people and fearful people can do really bad things that i think that is what we saw in buffalo. >> tucker: so they are continuing to tell you, in the face of all available evidence, that t

we had joe biden insert birthing people in his $6 trillion budget proposal and cori bush was talkingng people. a big news story about this same time. so what is it with mother's day that they want to remind moms that men can get pregnant and have babies. >> tucker: the men are talking. i like women. being a woman is not just wearing lipstick in a dress. it's more than that. as a man, i noticed. chad, great to see you tonight. >> thank you. >> tucker: we told you about the effort in the name of democracy to prevent voters in georgia to being avowed for the most popular member of congress. a judge has ruled on it and we'll tell you the results next.

that's congresswoman cori bush once told us that nothing is more important than protecting birthing peoplebefore you today is a single mom, as an earth, and as a congresswoman. i am committed to doing the absolute most to protect black mothers. to protect black babies, to protect black birthing people. >> tucker: list the last line that's in to get joe biden's attention so your kids don't have enough to eat, they can't be bothered to be helped at all they cause this problem. but once joe biden finds out that the trans community is suffering once he sees the faces of that suffering he will do all he can to help. he will a lift those pallets of formula from the border and tribute them to the trans mothers who need them. once he sees these faces and here they are leaders in chatman. straight from your calvin klein ad. pregnant men, the pregnant man emoji joe biden. do for the pregnant man emoji. he is the cohost of fox & friends weekend he joins us tonight. thanks so much for coming on this seems like the kind of issue since the government effectively controlled the baby formula market we did

the have that many cpuc and progressive members from cori bush, ayanna pressley, jamaal bowman who didndorse any candidate last -- this year, though they did you, last year? >> i can't answer for the individuals. they have to make a decision for themselves as to why to endorse or not endorse. i get that as a political person. i truly get that. what i will say about the progressive caucus is they were wrong. i'm excited to see progressive leaders across the country -- i'm talking about leaders who lead caucuses from california to nevada to new mexico, to iowa, those progressive leaders, about 11 of them in total all across the country, once the cbc did what they did come they came out and made it very clear who the real freedom fighting progressive in my race was. i applied the and i hope -- the progressive leadership elected leadership has a decision to make. either they are going to side with corporatist democrats and not do anything immensely different from them or they are going to be different. either they are going to complement the movement or they are not. i will say congresswom

crowley, the rest of the squad from ayanna, to rashida, to the next cycle, that was jamal bowman, cori bushso we are feeling really good even though it's really hard right now for so many, because cycle after cycle we are growing against an institution that has decades of support before. go ahead. >> we're almost out of time, i'm jumping in with a question, if summer league wins the election, gets elected to congress, joins the squad, what is the strategy? is it going to be a lot more flexing of progressive muscles in the house? >> well, i mean, we're all wanting to make sure that we get to the general election and that she gets elected, she would be the first black woman to ever represent the state of pennsylvania, and we are very explicit about what we are doing which is building a mission driven team on the inside of congress that is going to fight for those solution that match the urgency of the problems that we are forcing and reject corporate pac money, we will make sure that, especially heading into november that we don't know with the majority will look like, it is going to be criti

cori bush, are you ready?wer is. >> let me ask this question a brother thomas why you such a hater? hey on civil rights, hate on women's rights, hate on reproductive rights why are you such a hater? >> jesse: 1-1 with the brother thomas. [laughs] all right method will recount what to get to the judges next category hocus-pocus. what tv host said that if roe v. wade was overturned women could be burned like which is at the stake. >> kat: i have no idea. i picked the opposite one. >> jesse: let's see who it was. >> if you go back to the original consumption of this country an unmarried woman was most likely to be burned as a witch, most people who burned as witches were often unmarried or widowed. people who are untethered to a man which is the only thing that grounded even white women and humanity. so if you are an original list you essentially want to go back to that perception of women. >> kat: this is awful, no i hate you. [laughs] [laughs] you are not a decent analysis. >> jesse: that made her upset let's s

cori bush, who i believe is pro-choice, told this really compelling story once about her birth story.was a traumatic experience, and god bless her for going through it, but she had her son at 23 weeks. it was one of the most pro-life stories i've ever heard in my life. there is a lot of inflamed rhetoric on this, and rachel, i agree with you, the other side is simple. "but you're killing a baby." that's all it is. >> rachel: that's well said, carley paid what is not well said is talking about the legitimacy of the supreme court. >> we are all right to talk about the legitimacy of the to be in court. >> what does this mean for the supreme court? >> in a word, illegitimacy. >> americans will rightly conclude that their voices and their votes no longer matter. >> are these people really a bunch of politicians in robes? >> it's insane that supreme court justices can lie in their job interview without any repercussions. >> decisions about what you can do with your body are now being made by four old dudes and a woman who thinks "the handmaid's tale" is a rom-com. >> they should raise every

. >> congresswoman cori bush, thank you for your time tonight. >> thank you, john. >> i am joined by congresswoman mia love, and democrat wendy davis, former senator from texas, and also jeffrey toobin, a former prosecutor, and senator davis, we heard from you on the program as the news was breaking, and what is going through your mind? >> today is a day of resolve, and you saw that at rallies around the country at 5:00 central time. there were rallies at federal courthouses throughout the country, and it is just the beginning of what i think is going to been a important tipping point in the 2022 election cycle, because everyone that i have talked to in this 24-hour period men and women alike is committed to making sure that we do everything we can to restore this important right, and the conversation in the election is about so much more than advancing a fed cal protection. it is also about preventing the opportunity for republicans to advance a federal bill that will actually outlaw abortion in states throughout the country. right now we know that 26 states joined that amicus brief

congresswoman, cori bush said this. >> when i was 17 years old, i was raped.ater, i found out i was pregnant. without the protections afforded to me by roe v. wade, i would have been forced to birth a human being that i could not take care of, and the father would have been my rapist. the emotional devastation of this encounter was traumatic. i didn't know if it was my fault, i didn't know what to do, did i do something wrong? i had not consented. but i blamed myself. the stress of possibly having a child at 18 was more than i could bear. >> representative that this. >> after which filled pregnancy should i have been imprisoned? would it have been after the first miscarriage? after doctors used what would be a legal drug to abort the lost fetus? would you have put me in jail after the second miscarriage? perhaps that would have been the time. forced to reflect in confinement at the guilt i felt, the guilt that so many women feel after losing their pregnancies. or, would you have put me behind bars after my stillbirth. i ask, because if alabama makes abortion m

here on abortion care, democratic representative, cori bush, calling out the hypocrisy of the allegedlyake away a person's bodily autonomy, if you are for life, you will support universal pay leave. if you are for life, you will support livable wages. if you are for a life, you would support affordable childcare, affordable housing and the expansion of wake and ten of the snap programs. if you are for life, you would support policies to help children and families meet their material needs. >> joining me now, former republican congressman, david jolly of florida, a msnbc analyst and maria hinojosa, futuro media wander. we're -- now you have speaker pelosi being denied catholic union over her defense of reproductive rights. i wonder where you think this conversation goes from here and how democrats, in particular, begin to craft a message around this that resonates as they go into november? >> alicia, elections are ultimately about a contrast. democrats have a lot of runway to work on the contrast between where they stand and not just protecting life but protecting life from cradle to gra

i have stopped democrat cori bush's bill that would have allowed felons to vote from prison. that was a bill that passed by voice but when i called for recorded votes, we stop that bill. we have over 530 bills on record where every member of congress, all 430 five were forced to vote. this is not just for northwest georgia, it's for every single american and it is how congress should function and operate. >> let's go to riley -- your turn to ask a question to jennifer stringham. >> millions of georgians relied on covid relief like the child tax credit program. would you support continued financial relief? >> we've all seen government spending is out of control. we need to make sure any spending coming from government is not excessive. we need to hold government accountable. we need to create transparency and we need a fiscally responsible government that is accountable to the people. i recognized during covid there were a lot of uncertainties but i also recognize a lot of spending that came from covid was not responsibly done. i support a balanced budget amendment and the no

cory bush said yesterday this is not a decision i would make.r. democratic leadership is split here. you have clyburn, pelosi, and hoyer, who defended cuellar, others didn't touch the issue. clark is in leadership and hasn't endorsed in the race, jonathan. it is creating some tension among the democratic caucus. >> i know you have also some reporting on one other issue. the war in ukraine, what are you hearing about the expected vote today on the hill about the new aid package? >> well, that vote is actually probably not going to happen today, jonathan. it is caught up. there are two republicans who are holding it up at this point. senator rand paul and senator john kennedy of louisiana, as well. that vote might slip into next week, which the president does not want. >> no. we've certainly heard from the white house a lot about the urgency to get this vote done. in fact, the president even supporting the de-coupling of the ukraine aid package from the covid funds. we can set aside the wisdom of delaying covid funding as more cases are soaring. r

ocasio-cortez out -- let's do this quote from iata to, rashida, to the next cycle that was jamal bowman, cori busheally, really good even though it's really hard right now for so many because cycle after cycle were going against an institution that has decades of support. >> sorry, ramos at the time, last question if some really wins the general election and gets elected to congress, joins the score, what's the strategy is there gonna be a lot more flexing of progressive muscles in the house? >> well, i mean, i think that we're all to make sure we get through the general election, if she gets elected become the first black woman to ever represent the state of pennsylvania. and we are very explicit what we're doing, justice democrats are building a mission driven team, on the inside of progress that's gonna fight for the solution to the match the urgency of the problems were facing and reject corporate pac money, and we're gonna make sure that especially heading into november where we don't where the majority will look like it's, gonna be really critical. >> thank you so much for joining us, alexan
