and karen finney and elliot williams. because i said your name and i will start with you, frank. that is the courtesy and an apology only one. >> that this people do it, don't worry about a . >> thank you, i feel some days that i am not the best but i am glad. anyway, i am thinking about this, the idea of us talking about donald trump and the statements he has made it is no surprise that he makes a number of outrageous statements. this one feels different in that danger that has been presented because of january 6th, but also it has been presented at a time when congresswoman liz cheney kept saying he poses a threat to our democracy. is this, to you, bringing differently than some of the other subsistence conference he's making? >> it does differently. idea, i originally thought he was going to suspend the constitution. was suspended when i was in high school for one day, and i was allowed back. by the way, i don't know what it is about cnn, i tends to admit all the things i did wrong in my early years. next week we will be talking about drug use trump back to the room candidates

they can run on in 2024 and not wedge issues that they want to run against. >> john brabender, karen finneyrap it there, thank you. >>> a former fedex delivery driver reportedly confessing to killing a 7-year-old texas girl. ahead, what the community is doing now. i brought in ensure max proin with 30 grams of protein. those who tried me felt more energy in just two weeks. uhhhh... here, i'll take that.

. >> karen finney, do you agree?>> i do, but i just want to say to the voters of georgia, your vote matters. i always use georgia as an example to remind people how much voting actually matters. twice now it's the voters of georgia who literally have fundamentally helped to change the direction of this country. and i think what that says for the democratic party is we need to continue to learn the lessons of how important our ground game is. the that has a lot to do with how and why we won in georgia. i worked on the 2021 special election. let's keep learning those special lessons. for the republican party, it's into is to see them finally talking about quitting donald trump, this is not a profile in courage, it is the american people who stood up and stood firm and said, no, we're not going back to 2020, we're moving forward. >> jackie kucinich, ultimately we have a democrat who won in what was a red state, but it was still by a narrow margin. what does that say about the future of the party in that state and what w

karen finney also here and part of a 2021 special election polling team for warnock and jonah goldbergear senator mitch mcconnell. anyone who thinks the constitution can be suspended or not followed it seems to me has a hard time sworn in as president of the united states and then repeats it basically. okay. so how do you square that circle? >> look. i have a great deal of sympathy for mitch mcconnell. this is the problem when you try to extricate yourself from donald trump. mitch mcconnell cannot say he would not support him because politically that's a big fight between mitch mcconnell and donald trump. the whole strategy like desantis and youngkin is not to give the big baby a bottle. to try to make it seem like he is old news and move on. it may be the smartest politics. >> it is interesting. you mentioned glen youngkin. he did come out, governor of virginia, saying i disagree with the comments. he made it personal. >> where's the bar? in hell? that is the lowest bar ever. republicans for a long time created the monster afraid to take him on. i get the politics of the capitol and i

eric neeson and i'll just, eric william, kerik cycled back, as in a political commentator karen finney join this as well. karen, let us start with the. because it is a final push. but i wonder, are we pushing people who are tired? who do not want to keep voting all the time? or people who are, like book, i am already at the polls. just one last time i was gonna be the senator. exhaustion may be the bigger hurdle now? >> i think the bigger hurdle is not the exhaustion it is more just making sure that you have logistically you're able to get back out to vote. given we just had an election. remember that it was fudging the governor passed that short in the timeline between the general election, and when you might have a runoff election. but i want to make a point. in georgians understand. 2021 we had to do this. they know they gotta come back out. and they take their vote very seriously. they take the responsibility very seriously and so far the momentum has been really positive for reverend warnock. we are seeing turnout, as you mentioned, not only is there or lieutenant good. it is in t

back with me, franklin's, karen finney and norm eisen.and the idea of this happening in early november, by the, way and now here we are, already in the beginning of december and she's already resigning. that's a pretty quick process. i wonder if it's the factor of the attention that police are. under to do obviously the right thing, that's at the. cool stop talking. don't hand him your badge. >> not for being a criminal, but because she was a bad criminal. that is the point, yes, it's obvious. you don't announce that you're the police chief. >> right. >> well, that's as to, me too, somebody isn't bold enough to, say oh it's on, here you go. and, then again, mind you it worked. in that instance, right? it's not like she had a ticket. or there was an arrest of any kind. it was successful. which, of course, makes people question the idea of did this happen all the time? does it happen so frequently that she felt that embolden. and, also, i wonder if there's more to the story. i'm sure we'll soon find. out >> it's accountability. this is why

women like angela wry, karen finney, terry jackson. i could go on and on with so many leaders.on, love, the power of advocacy from her wife, cherelle. friends like coach john staley who stayed so consistent. every day women, black women, who lent their names, their platforms, to continue to send one message. we are bg, we stand with bg, and to continue to push. to call for her freedom. it was just so powerful to see that freedom the other day. i think so many of us had so much joy and relief in our hearts. we also had a moment where we know that the power of our voice is important. it is important that we continue to use it. we are so happy and so glad to see that bg is home. she is safe, she is free, she is where she is supposed to be. a home with her family, her wife, and everyone who loves her. >> it should have been a cause for unified celebration, even if you had substantive arguments about what this means about the future president swabs. it is undeniably good news that britney griner's home. yet you had republican lawmakers who were leaning into tropes that had no place
