and even though then, chief of the defense staff, general john vance, gave verbal orders to shut down the initiative that very same month report show that these influence activities as the military likes to call them, continued for 6 more months until events finally submitted a written edict in november and now you might be wondering how such authoritarian and frankly even mackey value and projects could be allowed to take place in a supposedly liberal country like canada, is specially since canadian law states that the military is specifically for bed in from using psychological operations or a cy ups within canada, unless given explicit permission from the federal government? well, it turns out that the answer there is essentially creative semantics. you see, according to the department of national defense, cy ops are only used abroad and they are, of course, completely and totally different from what it is. instead choosing to refer to as information, operation, campaigns. sure. and as terrible as all this sounds. the sad truth is that this isn't even the 1st time that the canadian

vance, john lindell. these guys seek to extend former president trump's agenda. public. they are willing to put power and greed above our communities and we have to come together with a strategy that is going to stop them and that's why i'm running for this u.s. senate seat. >> you know, i always say to candidates who come to "on the run" i repeat these words. it's malpractice to come on here and not tell people how to find you. what's your website? >> i appreciate that, our website is morganharper.org. we call it morganizing. >> morganizing. >> do you like that? >> that's pretty good. that's real good. >> i came up with that. thank you. >> just take the credit. thank you very much for coming to "the sunday show. >> thank you for having me. >>> coming up at the top of the hour, how the damage trump did continues to threaten our democracy. there's much more of "the sunday show" next. s out here. the history she writes in her clear blue skies. the legends she births on home town fields. and the future she promises. when we made grand wagoneer, proudly assembled in

vance. joyce, first to you. chief justice johnalling the empowerment of private citizens as enforcers of the law unprecedented and the editorial board of the wall street journal saying the law sets an all of precedent that conservatives could hate. it could allow individuals to sue for hate speech or new york depp ties private lawsuits against gun owners. the president called this part of the law un-american. the white house is looking at whether there are federal provisions that could block this part of the law that seems to be a reach. i don't know, joyce, do you think there is a federal option for the doj? >> so that will certainly be a question that folks at doj would have to look at from a variety of different directions, andrea, to see when they can challenge the law or find ways around it, but this is the evil genius, this notion that they would use private enforcement in an effort to prevent the courts from effectively reviewing the law. i suspect it proves too much. it does too much and as people begin to contemplate the

vance. also with us national affairs analyst host and producer of "the circus," john heileman.th you for this hour. help us understand the ruling from texas yesterday from the supreme court what it means, what it doesn't mean and the implications it may have down the road. >> so a majority of the supreme court close to midnight last night made the decision that this law in texas, the most restrictive law on abortion in the country, could go into effect. they had been asked to enjoin the law by a group of abortion providers and advocates for abortion. but the court said it couldn't enjoin the law because the texas statute is very unusual. instead of using normal government entities to enforce it, it's enforced by creating what justice sotomayor in her decent calls citizen bounty hunters. any citizen can go after people who helped a woman obtain an abortion. they can't sue the woman herself but they can get a $10,000 bounty if they succeed in this action. the court says we're able to enjoin state authorities from doing this activity but we can't enjoin in this novel and unique si
