justice gorsuch: mr.justice barrett: well, what do you do with the fact that stokeling especially seems to measure force not from the front end, like force applied, but from the back end on what does the force -- what -- what is its result? it seems to me that for murder, necessarily, the result was pretty extreme. mr. kedem: so, respectfully, i -- i don't think stokeling takes that position. in fact, the whole discussion in stokeling was how much force do you need to apply, what's the amount of force, to overcome resistance, which, again, the court wasn't focused on whether the person was injured or not. it was can you do it just sort of by gently grabbing it, or does it need to be more -- more vigorous. justice barrett: but the measure of the force, if you're prying someone's fingers off of a purse -- mr. kedem: right. justice barrett: -- i mean, the measure of force -- mr. kedem: yeah. justice barrett: -- i wouldn't describe that as severe or aggressive. mr. kedem: so -- so that -- and that was the bac

justice gorsuch really said it so well. to reiterate the first gathered in that room the only reason they were able too. it's a great message hard times and sometimes it is you can forget about the great upheaval in the past and seeing enormous disagreements out of a very public safety. professor steven carter writes a lot on civility throughout the e entire book of very few manners from american history british author in the mid- 1800s a whole book we had no manners at all. very famous disagreements in the past and the sitting vice president as you know ended fatally. which is a great message for today doesn't seemed like our differences are unique to our times overcome them. so important to learn from history and to remember how close we come to violence and civil war we have overcome it because of this commitment to listening to people we disagree with to disagree without being disagreeable the constitution is made for people fundamentally different points of view different perspectives are important. where we convene th

and gorsuch, in his mcgirt decision, really wrote about how that's wrong. and one of the things he says is, he says, wouldn't allow this in any other area of the law. so why do we allow it here? and another really good line he has is he said that's would be the rule of the strong, the rule of the law to basically oklahoma for acting as there wasn't a reservation for a hundred years. by then after century saying, you know what, you're right. like it would be crazy to say there's a reservation now. so that's gorsuch's legacy far on the supreme court. so we'll see how. that works out. but i think it did have a lot to do with him having. more experience with tribes like he got on to the bench, but i think also his i think has a very clear view of if the law says the tribe has this right. we we follow the law and it's not our place is the court to rewrite the law which not every justice. i think i saw a question up here. oh well i felt colorado. i remember having seen some articles regarding a a trail called the cherokee trace that was named after people who wer

justice gorsuch, anything? >> i just want to clarify, in response to justice sotomayor and justice exactly what you think that the question before us. i thought the question was, in a situation where you se the risk of an event occurring in the future thad cause harm, is it not to disclose that the event -- is tatement false because you don't disclose that the event had happened in the past even though the harm from that event in the past is over? t is the question presented on -- on that question, which has -- which is very diffehan what we've been talking about all morning. we agree that the answer is no if - >> okay. >> it is not misleading to omit occurrence of an event that is immaterial because it risks no business harm. and in this case, thatt this case. >> ok. i'll read the transcript on that. ok. and then the second thing, on justice thomas's point, i mean, getting past the motion, just to the real world into this for a second, getting past the motion to dismiss is kind of -- it's the game, right? >> i

. >> can i just ask you one other question, you know, justice gorsuch and the chief too are to pin itn exactly what you think if the statements or statements at risk and you agree that sometimes they might be purelyward-looking, right? >> yes >> and you said but they can co implied representations and i think mr. shanigan's position ordy they don't and ordinarily they do? >> at the end to have day, i'm not sure that it'selpful or necessary. >> doesn't that raise what for me is a separation ofers, due process concern, yes, he knows how to write regulations that require disclosure of past events as we'vessed they have those kinds ofulations and what happens here iss regulation does not explicitly require that and then sometimes it does and som it doesn't in response justice barrett and the chief and you said it can contain an implied representation if you're regulated party you don'tave fair notice one could say what you're required to do. it's guessork about when you're required disclose and you're going to, therefore, another problem that they and they are going to sclose that and def

i might add in terms of the supreme court, one thing especially neil gorsuch is the agencies have goneand one of the things they are going to do is musk and vivek ramaswamy go to congress and ask them for some help in some of these areas and acting legislation that clarifies what these rules should be doing. paul: they will do nothing. they will get no cooperation from democrats on this. they might do some of it with reconciliation. is part of the strategy flood the zone? so many proposals that opponents won't be able to stop them all? >> some will get through. the other thing that might, this argument some of these regulations have interests attached to them including worker interests, the kind of thing trump likes but a lot of bureaucrats are doing waivers for things, hard to get u.s. steel for building project in american samoa, find their waivers. paul: the annual un climate change conference ends with a promise by wealthy countries to pay billions of dollars a year to poorer nations in an agreement that critics call an optical illusion, we will talk to bjorn longer berg about the

pennsylvania case yesterday that your reporter was talking about, three of conservative justices, thomas, gorsuchnt difference here, but doesn't make a difference and the courts are saying hopefully we won't need to be involved because the election isn't close. key spite the polling. if it made a difference as in georgia, arizona or pennsylvania, then the justices will have to do things they don't want to do like say, let's segregate and put to one side all the ballots we have questions about and we're going to look specifically at those. that's what justice alito did four years ago in pennsylvania when some people didn't sign their ballots properly or didn't put them in the secrecy envelope. pennsylvania is my home state, i don't know how so many people didn't sign their ballots. i'm sure if they were getting free phillies tickets they'd sign what they want. 10,000 people four years ago didn't sign the ballot. that's what the supreme court could do and then we'll see them have to make up some new law because they haven't decided to intervene decisively in the ways that might be called upon them

things are so divisive and they are often sticking together and in recent years we've seen justice gorsuchst conservative part of the court and they, listen, have given decades and the first two you've mentioned elito and thomas may be ready to move on and certainly not going to do that unless there was a republican president that replaced them and had health and more going and see in the next couple of years there's moves on that front and i would say that the court is viewed for businesses and it's seismic changes back to administrative agencies in their regulatory power just in the last term or two alone. there's going to be a lot for businesses going for them to read a pro business trend and critics don't like the pro business tend to like what they're going for them and it's the last couple years. liz: it's very pronounced and merger issue that's come about with the biden administration and how strict they've been about approving any kind of merger and acquisitions and that's expected to loosen up and change and new trump administration and going for shannon, thank you very much. shan

there has been some turnover in the personnel of the court lately with donald trump's two pigs, neil gorsuch there is not a conservative antiabortion majority on the court. because of that, merrick's abortion providers have been planning for a post-roe world, thinking and talking mostly among themselves about which states would be first to ban abortion, and how they might develop ways to get women on the states to what they are calling haven states, to where abortion will remain legal. if roe were overturned by the court tomorrow, these are the states that would have laws in place to ban abortion right away. if 26 get turned over to the court, legal abortion could be gone and all of the states basically immediately. that suddenly things possible. >> that nightmare scenario that suddenly seemed possible in 2019 happened a few years after that broadcast. now, we are living through the consequences . three days from now, we will find out what the american electorate makes of what donald trump's of record has been to women in this country. the end of roe has brought with it a wave of cruelty in

that's what happened with kavanaugh and gorsuch, that that was the playbook.i would assume that'll be the playbook with with the two of them. and so that it would encourage them to go off and ride off into the sunset and know that their that their mission is being is carrying on and with a, with a republican majority in the senate, they can sail right through. >> absolutely. getting that nomination to the supreme court. >> anybody you want in. >> and what's important here is we're talking about if you get a young judge on the supreme court, we're talking about 30, 20, 30 years on the bench, absolutely executing those plans here as opposed to waiting that time out. let's say you get a democrat in, you know, in high office after this. and then you're going to risk having that democrat appoint a supreme court. exactly. >> strike while the iron is hot. so i'll bet you by june we are going to hear that alito and or thomas have decided to retire, and that by next october, i'll bet we're going to have 1 or 2 new supreme court justices, something that many americans d

mike davis, he is a very conservative, a bomb throwing provocateur who used to clench for justice gorsuch has been out there publicly saying that donald trump should prosecute people like the attorney general tish james and jack smith, the special counsel, that his justice department should do that. he's articulating which crimes they should be prosecuted for and he is making no bones about that. the other person we talked about is mark paoletta the former general counsel for the office of management and budget in donald trump's first term and he has been out there not specifically advocating the doj should prosecute individuals but he is justifying the idea that the president can order the justice department to investigate and prosecute specific cases. so he's laying the legal groundwork. that would violate five decades of norms post watergate which said that the justice department should be independent from the president, that the president should never say go investigate that person. these people are suggesting that donald trump should be able to do that with his justice department and

the chairs of the national constitution center, justices gorsuch and justice breyer have also joined together for discussions about texturism versus originalism, which is so important, showing that those discussions are differences of principle and philosophy, rather than of politics. helps citizens understand what the law actually is, which is not just a clash of personalities or politics, but of principle. and that is why at the constitution center, we are trying to teach the methodologies of constitutional interpretation to kids starting in middle school. it is kind of a radical idea, but it seems to be working. that when kids and learners of all ages can listen to the arguments on both sides, can read the majority opinions and the dissents before making up their own minds, that is the model of the way things are supposed to be. >> that is great. next question here. >> jp hogan. jeff, i would tweet about this before your book. but in some of this, i wanted to go to scale, and happiness and how they are preserving it. they preserve it more as a local right. the more perfect union i

and i talked about the supreme court and trump added neil gorsuch, brett kavanaugh and amy coney barrett matt mentioned immunity, so i was thinking above the law and the fact that he thinks he is a king i added ginni thomas as well as samuel alito's wife who likes to fly flags. this is when the alito draft was accidentally released if you can believe that. sometimes you just have to kind of think i will just visually show this. that is part of the draft and i wanted to show how this is creating a situation where women are not controlling their own lives. so now we come to 2024, vice president harris and trump with all of his baggage. so what i really want to kind of want to talk about is we watched hillary clinton run for president twice and i started cartooning in 1992 and saw a lot of sexism toward her, not just by people, but by the media. this was done in 2008 when she was running against obama and a voter asked her a question and she teared up and i went back and looked at that video because it is described as she started crying, she is just getting a little emotional talking about

justice gorsuch has a book out called "overruled" talking about this kind of stuff with regulation. at libraries, and an agent came up to him at one point with a badge and said, "i have some questions about your rabbit." literally told him, "i'm going to have to do a home visit." did a home visit to see the care of the rabbit and asked what the plan was for emergency evacuation should something happen. it got ridiculous. but this really happens. you have to ask yourself, this is the best government use of time and money? >> you guys are really fired up about the story. is this your favorite story of the month, the year? >> emily: of life! because -- sorry, second to that. we saw this during covid. we saw weaponization of regulations. the death sentence for the animals because of no license? we saw the death of businesses, the death of people's livelihoods, because of license issues under covid. so this has real-life ramifications. that poor little thing died. by the way, can you imagine the s.w.a.t. guys when they got the mission for the day?

got from the supreme court was a statement by justice samuel alito, joined by justices thomas and gorsuchre not actually deciding very much that there's not a lot we actually can do, given the particular way this case got to the court. wolf, if pennsylvania turns out to be razor thin, where a small category of provisional ballots like what we're seeing in these cases might make the difference, this order does not tell us how the supreme court would deal with that issue. a week, two weeks, three weeks from now. it just says we're not stepping in today. if pennsylvania turns out super close, i think we're going to see a rerun of this very dispute. you know, on the far side of the election as well. >> all right stephen jones, to both of you. thank you very much. and we'll be right back with more news of the year? >> it's your chance to weigh in. discover the life changing work this year's honorees are doing then cast up to ten votes a day, every day. >> visit cnn heroes. why do nfl players choose a sleep number? bed. >> i like to sleep cool and i like to sleep even cooler. and i really like

when those supreme court justices were coming before the senate for confirmation, when kavanaugh and gorsuche getting confirmed, they said, don't worry about it. roe is settled precedent. it's unlikely it'll ever be overturned. and then what did they do? as soon as they had a conservative, anti-choice majority on the court, they overturned roe versus wade and now in half the states across the country, women cannot get abortions and women are dying so they are absolutely coming after abortion. they are absolutely going to try to pass a national abortion ban. that is the stakes of this election. so even women in connecticut are not safe. if your state protects the right to full reproductive health care, that might be gone. if republicans win the presidency, the senate and the house of representatives. >> i do want to get your said about liz cheney republican liz cheney overnight listen she's a radical war hawk let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrel shooting at her okay. let's see how she feels about it. you know, when the guns are trained on her face you know, they're all w

has said he's not going into the new administration, but this is a -- he was a clerk for justice gorsuch, and again, donald trump jr. said this is the kind of guy that could be attorney general. >> the fact of the matter is you haven't heard that from donald trump. you can air lift any quote from any number of people on the left who aren't going into the harris-biden administration in their trailing days either. you're hearing from donald trump he's going to be a president for all americans. he's a guy in that first term, you had crowds chanting lock her up for hillary clinton. he didn't prosecute her. he's focused on what makes people's lives better, and actually my message to democrats out there, even those who didn't vote for donald trump, is give him a chance to make your life better. even those who have bought into false narratives about donald trump will be pleasantly surprised as to finding more money in their paycheck, prices coming down in the country, a secure border. those are things most americans actually care about, and i think it's time to turn the page on a lot of these h

alito thomas gorsuch they wrote a brief, separate statement explaining their decision. i want to put up on the screen what they said. they said even if we agreed with the applicants, federal constitutional argument, a question on which i express no view at this time, we could not prevent the consequences they fear. yeah. what does that mean? >> so first of all, this decision tonight not to get involved by the u.s. supreme court, it was nine zero. some people i think were expecting the 6 to 3 conservative liberal split nine zero. now the three of the conservatives issued a separate decision. and essentially what we saw just there is those justices said it's sort of too little, too late. they said this dispute actually goes back to a primary from last year, and it only affected a handful of ballots and even if we were to put that on hold that wouldn't bind statewide officials in the general election next week so this is a big win for democrats, right? as you said i mean, pennsylvania is the most important state there are thousands of people who mess up the way they send i

. >> justice gorsuch question was i think and the chief justi of combining the water quality standards in the effluent limitations part of what we have to d to figure how they fit together b1 c it strikes me but congress ensured more effectiveness a fair notice was to say the is quality standards such as this, discolor of fish, marine communities et cetera but the memes to the end were affluent limitations which woth be as a chief justice said more effectiv and fair notice. if they are not tight enough epa's mechanisms to tighten them up. what is wrong with that bleeding of the two things toget how does that hurt epa if you to say that you want to respond to that house at harm epa's ability to regulate if they have to d it that way. >> going to lead to more permit denial more permit delays estimate for the inforti to commit is going to lead to less flexibility and more burdens for the dischargers. permits these cover the vastal majority of npdes dischargers they are covered by general premise. the whole point of the general permit is dischargers can get with not providing us a lot of i
