jake tapper. you know, it is so offensive. when people try to justify shoot and black people, especially young children. he merely rang the doorbell. that was it. and the owner of the home shoots through the door, hitting him in the head and then shoots him a second time. aiming at his chest and had he not had his arm there. the bullet would have winning his chest. and so how is this ever justified? i mean, you have people who are delivery man. so do you mean to tell me now we're going to tolerate as a society when you have a black delivery man from amazon, a fedex ring your doorbell that a white citizen can profile them and shoot them and say just because the color of his skin i thought he was burglarizing my home. that is unacceptable. so why has the kansas city police chief not arrested this man? it makes no sense to us. jake tapper is to america's, you know, because nobody can tell us if the rows were reversed, and you had a black man. shoot a white 16 year old teenager for merely ringing his doorbell that he would not be

jake tapper joins us now. and jake, this is quite controversial. i know.you know you're going to speak with one of the democrats who faces expulsion, and that's representative justin pearson. that's right. state representative pearson was just elected this year. he's 28 years old. he represents parts of memphis. and look, i mean, this was a moment of one could say civil civil disobedience. it certainly was disruptive. i would not call it violent in any way, shape or form. but the three democratic state representatives you know, joined protesters and said, no action, no peace. at that point, the house speaker cameron sexton, had them removed by state troopers. on monday, they were stripped of their committee assignments. and then tomorrow there will be a vote on whether or not they should be stripped and expelled from the state house of representatives. the speaker compared their actions, believe it or not. to the violence, the deadly violence we saw in january 6th saying, quote what they did today was equivalent at least equivalent, maybe worse, depending

cnn's jake tapper will be all over this story today in the lead jake, you'll actually be talking to one of the three state representatives who is now facing expulsion. yeah, that's right. i have here the three house resolutions for the tennessee house, um 65, which would expel justin jones 64, which would expel gloria johnson and house resolution 63 , which would expel state representative justin j. pearson was which is the individual we spoke with yesterday and we hope to speak with today. um it should be noted. it's not just that they joined protests on gun violence. it's that they disrupted the proceedings of the of the floor and violated state rules. state house rules which i don't think anyone really disputes. it's just a question about whether they should truly be punished this way. given that the last person to be punished this way, i think is somebody who had allegedly sexually groped 22 women or something like that. i mean, this is a pretty extreme punishment for an act of civil disobedience. they admit to having broken the house rules, but they also, you know, add that they're

indeed speaking with cnn's jake tapper on friday , gop representative brian ritchie, who only voted to expel jones said he did so. because jones wanted to be expelled. representative jones's office is right next door to mine. i had multiple conversations with him this week. let me know that i wasn't in favor and essentially , he told me that he wanted to be kicked out because his following was growing. he's getting all this national exposure and that the metro city council had already said that they were going to reappointing. um back to the general assembly , so i was honoring his wishes and voting for him. i respect all three of them and their constituents that voted for them . i felt that they should stay. um, i honored representative jones, but it had nothing to do with race. and as for the other republicans who voted to expel their action will probably be welcomed by red district constituents who will see the votes as a necessary reprimand of bad behavior. as representative richie told jake that of two energetic youthful males who were animated and upholding of the rule of law, no

the lead with jake tapper all right.or now, let's talk about new developments in the $1.6 billion defamation case against fox news. attorneys for the conservative media giants are now asking a judge to prohibit references to the january 6th insurrection and threats made to employees have dominion voting systems. they claim that they're not relevant to the case at hand. but dominion says that's not true. here with us. now cnn's oliver darcy oliver jury selection set for next week. so what does this request mean? potentially for the case moving forward. these are called motions and lemonade and their common pretrial motions that aim to limit the evidence and the arguments that each side can use at the actual trial and in these motions, which were filed earlier, but just became public yesterday, fox is moving to limit references to the capital attack. i'll read to you what they actually said. in their motion, they said. any reference to the capital tax will only unfairly prejudiced the jury against fox inflamed passions, pr

jake tapper to have more on this story at the top of the hour on the lead, so, jake, i know you've beenlowing this very closely tell us more about these about these new posts and really the impact that that could have on this pardon request from the governor. well, mr perry's defense attorneys are lashing out at the court for releasing the these messages, almost all of which were not allowed to be shown to the jury. but perhaps perhaps it will complicate efforts to pardon him or give him a new trial. among the posts that he wrote. ah on june 1st 2020 on on facebook, he wrote. it is official. i am a racist because i do not agree with people acting like animals at the zoo. that same day, he also wrote. now it is my turn to get banned from facebook by comparing the black lives matter movement to a zoo full of monkeys that are freaking out, flinging their s h i t at a different time, he said. too bad we can't get paid for hunting muslims in europe and on and on , and i have not. we have not heard yet from governor abbott, who one has to believe was not aware of these tax messages, which wer

cnn's jake tapper joins us now to talk about this.o, jake, what do you make of more republicans going after desantis in recent days and weeks? well it reflects. i think the fact that desantis has emerged as the leading non trump candidate, one that a lot of members of the republican establishment seem to have been getting behind. and it also reflects the fact that i think everyone expects desantis is going to run and people know that you know, no one is going to as in remember in 15 4016 people thought that one person would take on donald trump. and then those two would fall by the wayside, and then they could go on and get the nomination. and i think that there's a realization from candidates like potential candidates like chris christie, that like you're going to have to fight for this nomination. no one is going to take out donald trump for you so you can walk in this. this is going to be a real struggle and everybody needs to get involved. and on that note, you have some new reporting about christie's political future. right tell

jake tapper's comment was in a silo her just watching fox may not know -- who are just watching fox may. >> fox is just saying a settlement is reached. they are not giving them a sense of this is a really big number. the other thing is it is one thing not to get an apology but an acknowledgment of what you said wasn't true is important. rupert murdoch said during the deposition, fox news was the only entity in the country that could correct the election lie that trump was telling his people, that his people believed. that is something that rupert murdoch acknowledge. that only fox news has influence and power over a very large part of this audience. if they really want the reputation back or undo it or even undo some of the damage, the only way for that to happen is for fox news to tell their audience they misinformed them and they did it knowingly. obviously, that will never happen. that is part if i the sediment was so high. fox news was willing to pay more money just to avoid the possibility that their audience would find out that the network was knowingly misinforming them. and wors

i'm in for jake tapper today. we start with our politics lead. do they have the votes? now, house republicans are in the middle of last-minute negotiations as house speaker kevin mccarthy tries to get his party's debt ceiling plan across the finish line. we expect that vote to start in minutes. he had zero democratic support, and he can only lose four republicans, a narrow margin that forced him to make some 11th hour concessions. but even if he can get this bill across that finish line, it is dead on arrival in the democrat controlled senate. the u.s. keeps ticking closer to its first-ever debt default, which would wreak havoc on the u.s. economy. i want to bring in economy's phil mattingly at the white house, and manu raju on capitol hill. manu, let's start with you. speaker mccarthy has been meeting with holdouts all day. at this point, does he have the votes necessary? >> reporter: the leadership is confident they'll get the votes, but this will be incredibly close to get this over the finish line. there are several members holding out. some who are flatly opposed.
