the justice department, congressman jim banks, all next hour. a text from my sister. you remember rick, her neighbor? sure, he's the 76-year-old guy who still runs marathons, right? sadly, not anymore. -what, you mean-- -mhm. -just like that. -wow. so sudden. um, we're not about to have the "we need life insurance" conversation again, are we? no, we're having the "we're getting coverage so we don't have to worry about it" conversation. so you're calling about the $9.95 a month plan -from colonial penn? -i am. we put it off long enough. we are getting that $9.95 plan, today. (jonathan) is it time for you to call about the $9.95 plan? i'm jonathan from colonial penn life insurance company. sometimes we just need a reminder not to take today for granted. it could be the death of someone you know or a health scare. that's why today could be a great day to call for free information about colonial penn's $9.95 plan. if you're age 50 to 85, you can get guaranteed acceptance whole life insurance starting at just $9.95 a month. there are no health questi

meanwhile, president biden is calling the law jim crow in the 21st century and vowing that his justice department will take a look. georgia's governor is firing back. >> simply find out what's in the bill versus just the blank statement of this is jim crow or, you know, this is voter suppression or this is racist because it is not. >> reporter: as governor kemp signed the bill last week georgia state representative park cannon was arrested for knocking on his door in the state capitol. >> what are you doing? >> reporter: police charged her with obstructing officials and assembly. >> we stand with park! we stand with park! >> reporter: cannon now out of jail is vowing to return to work today. >> blayne alexander reporting there. >>> okay. so you know what. it has been so nice outside. kari, i don't know what to say other than thank you. >> you know what. i'll take that credit, but just don't blame me when it gets bad, okay? >> okay. >> we'll have up-and-down weather this week, and it's going to feel more like sumner a couple of days, but today actually one of theoolest days of the week

jim crow for the 21st century. joining us now as gilda daniels at the university of baltimore, who was an official in the department of justicevision. thank you for being with us. jim crow laws enforced racial segregation in the united states. is what georgia has done a modern-day equivalent, as president biden says? gilda: i agree with the president in that this is taking us backwards in regards to where we were and where we have been. it is certainly a reversal of the expansion of access to the ballot that we saw in 2020. there are around 43 states and more than 200 50 bills in legislatures across the country that would indeed turn the clock back on voting rights. laura: and all of this has been inspired, hasn't it, but president trump claiming the election was rigged against him? is there any actual evidence of voter fraud to support these laws? gilda: weertainly saw in the many frivolous lawsuits that were filed after the 2020 election that there was no and is no evidence of voter fraud. the governor of georgia said he signed the legislation because of a crisis of confidence. but i would offer that it certainly wasn't a c

justice department with regard to policing and voting rights. again that is a big, big thing seeing what republican legislatures are doing around the country. and last, to jim's point, it is very important, i think, for the justice department to kind of emphasize that, look, because you're the friend of the president, or the son of a president, it doesn't mean you're going to get a different kind of justice from the justice department. it is an important message which was frankly lost over the last few years. >> yeah. and there will be a test, right, for him in the hunter biden case. elly, you know attorney generals are appointees and politicals influenced them in years past but it is fair to say that bill barr took that to a different level. for instance, interpreting the mueller report in favor of the president, someone appointed by the justice department. you're writing a book about this, about barr's tenure as attorney general. i just wonder, what differences do you see here, do you expect to see in early decisions by merrick garland? >> yeah, jim, it looks like night and day. i think merrick garland was signaling it is a new era in the justice department

justice. passing this pro-democracy legislation dismantles jim crow era, anti-democratic practices. >> yeah, absolutely. representative cori bush, you are always outspoken. i want a copy of those masks. that is a really great thing you have there. thank you very much. really appreciate you. have a great weekend. >> thank you. >>> up next, what's being done to address an alarming spike in violence directed against asian-americans. president biden condemned these attacks in his national address last night. will that be enough? stay with us. then make it! that means cooking day and night until you get...

jim. and i will talk a little about the justice department's investigation first.this investigation began during the trump administration when bill barr was still the attorney general. and that gaetz is not the target of this investigation but the subject of it. and this is an important piece of it. this was part of a wider sex trafficking investigation into a former florida lawmaker. now the question now is whether or not gaetz was involved in a relationship with a 17-year-old woman and whether or not he traveled across state lines with her. that is what the doj investigators are looking at, according to "the new york times." now cnn has also confirmed that this was part of a broader probe into that former florida lawmaker. now there's a separate issue here. gaetz is denying these allegations, very federal reservently. -- fervently. also he says they were trying to target his family, extract money from them in an extortion theme. they were so concerned about it, they went to the fbi and his father was willing to wear a wire in order to catch this person. in a fox
