those people growing up in an ozzie and harriet like world, living in a world where there is a stand on taco trucks, it is not the image they grew up with but this narrative, how to be american and how our society is strong enough to bring in all the different cultural ties and forge something that is essentially who we are is at the core of this debate and something that you see in the ways people have turned out to vote for hillary and trump in the last election, people who are more experienced in the world much more all the cultural and open, much more likely to vote for hillary as a democrat, people who were worried their community was under attack, this culture war were more likely to vote for trump. there has to be a way to bridge the divide and talk about what it means to be in american in a way that is inclusive and not threatening to people who have a conception of america that is narrower than that and brings the minute and makes them feel part of it and not people who are going to be left behind, there is a strain of that in the way we talk about opposition, we are talking

bush nominated harriet miers and the base went crazy saying, first of all, she doesn't have the constitutional law chops, but also we cannot count on her to vote the way we want a new justice to vote. and there was such an uproar that she withdrew and that is how sam alito got the spot. and you know, for those of us who have been aaeeen around ever than that, the mantra used to be no more suitor, as in no more david suitors. >> okay. i appreciate the geek out at the supreme court today. thank you all so much. >> i resemble that remark. >> thank you guys so much. >>> quick break. the other big news of the day, the president essentially just confirming a new summit with an american adversary. ♪ i thought i was managing my moderate to severe crohn's disease. then i realized something was missing... me. my symptoms were keeping me from being there. so, i talked to my doctor and learned humira is for people who still have symptoms of crohn's disease after trying other medications. and the majority of people on humira saw significant symptom relief and many achieved remission in as little as 4 weeks

. >> the qualification is for whoever trump puts up barring a harriet myers nomination all of them havetional backgrounds and on the court of appeals and intellectual heavy weights and the entire process drives me up a wall since robert borke where you can't ask a judge that means anything and ask vague questions and have to read the tea leaves -- leafs on how they'll vote. one thing amazing to note is the democrats whenever they nominate someone they've been literally 100% of the people nominated have vote the consistently to the left and 50% of the people the republicans have nominated to the high court have voted consistently on a textural ground and the republicans should be very cautious and careful about whom ever trump puts up and should demand that person is commit to the text of constitution as it was meant. >> shannon: they want someone who follows the philosophy they respect. who do you think benefits or hurts in the midterms. mcconnel likely gets someone confirmed before the midterms and they slidefy the seat but i think it will fire up the base saying you don't want that to

. >> you were serving in the department of justice under both these cases, the harriet meyers case and then the fast and furious where the attorney general himself was held in contempt, and they obstructed and did not allow the case to go to the u.s. attorney. you oversee u.s. attorneys including the one for the district of columbia at this point. the attorneys of the district of columbia did not make that decision, it was made simply to hold out. an obama appointee gave us the information we wanted. it was far more than the attorney general who lied to us, saw what was there, said there was and laid out the obstruction by the attorney general. so the question is, would you allow the statute to go forward that says "shall present to a grand jury" or do you believe you have the ability to be above the law, something the american people do not? >> no, sir, i do not have the ability to be above the law. >> good. i will take that as if you're held in contempt, it will go forward. yes and no is fine, that you don't believe you're above the law. >> correct. >> the former director of the fbi

it was harriet tubman, rosa parks, mlk, done. everything that i know about black history, i had to learn on my own. so i don't always blame people for not understanding. but they don't really realize that racism is built into the fabric of our society. there is environmental racism, educational racism, the foods that we eat, the health care that we receive. so i also want to encourage other black people to speak up about their experiences of microaggressions that we experience every single day and really speak out and be the change that day. and we're going to keep talking about it. >> thank you, guys, for what you're doing. a big thanks to our guests heather mcghee, valerie jarrett and tim wise as well. >> we'll be right back. directin but in very different ways and pampers gives all of them our driest best fitting diaper. pampers cruisers with three-way fit. they adapt at the waist, legs and bottom with up to twelve hours of protection for all the freedom to move their way in pampers cruisers only pampers diapers are the number

more than a decade ago we did see a republican revolt against a republican supreme court nominee, harriet miers, with george w. bush. when you look at the dish namff names bandied about for this opening, are there any names that could prompt some sort of backlash from republicans? >> any name is going to prompt some backlash, certainly from liberals and democrats. none of the names that i -- that come immediately to mind would be viewed by republicans as so far out of the conservative mainstream that they couldn't support them. in fact, that's one of the things fat federalist society and other groups advising the president have had in mind from, is from that list, you may recall, that neil gorsuch was chosen. the president of the federalist society has already said just a few minutes ago that any nominee that is chosen by the president he thinks would be someone like neil gorsuch. tom goldstein is here with me, our supreme court expert. you say you think the opposition is not going to waste any time in mobilizing? >> no. i think groups on both sides of the political divide just geared up.
