governor john kasic signed the bill flanked by six men. there were no female lawmakers in the room, nor apparently on their minds. we go to mother jones reporter andy kro croll. welcome to "the war room." >> great to be here. >> michael: what are the most dramatic changes in women's reproductive rights. >> what you have in this budget, the billion dollar budget, billion with a "b" budget. you have language that redefine what is pregnancy actually is. you have language that bans publicly-funded hospitals that have agreements with these abortion clinics. what do you know, private hospitals are often catholic hospitals, they're not going to sign up with an abortion provider. they're doing that, and they're sending planned parenthood to the end of the funding line cutting them out of $1.4 million in state funding. it's really a collection of measures signed by governor kasic that will close all but two, three four abortion- abortion-providing clinics in the state of ohio. >> michael: i she hadi should point out that i criticized governor kasic

. >> michael: the kasic was surrounded by six men when signed that bill. which i found astounding. you can find more videos at the crisis project.org . >>> in chicago alone 12 people were killed and another 62 were wounded by guns. in comparison only two people lost their lives in the crash of the aircraft here in san francisco, which was bigger news. guns are more dangerous than planes, they are still more dangerous than just about anything else. the fact that it's not front page news is a shame. >>> a showcase of some of the best slap stick comedy america has to offer. we'll revisit that right here right after this. young turks is that we're honest. they know that i'm not bs'ing them with some hidden agenda, actually supporting one party or the other. when the democrats are wrong, they know that i'm going to be the first one to call them out. they can question whether i'm right, but i think that the audience gets that this guy, to the best of his ability, is trying to look out for us. >> if you believe in state's rights but still support the drug war you must be high. >> "viewpoi

>> well, the kochs bankrolled scott walker and we have people like john kasic and la page in maine.ere governors who swept across the legislature throughout the country. >> schils. >> they were schills. they're operating off a playbook cut the taxes cut regulation for industry, and cut rights of ordinary people to vote. >> john: who can forget the prank phone call to scott walker walker and they said he was koch and the hoops that scott walker would jump through. it was hilarious if it wasn't discouraging. >>> i'm wondering what is the wide array of forces that are combining now to buy elections on a local level that we may not be hearing about as much as on a state level? >> well, there's always alec. the american legislative exchange council, which is largely corporate supported organization that creates lathes laws on things like voter i.d. on things like the collective bargaining rights that get passed at the state level. scott walker embraced an entire slate of alec reforms. these are laws being written in washington, d.c. >> john: then they cut and paste them. >> exactly and t

in ohio governor john kasic also in the mix for the 2016 gop nomination.o is wisconsin's scott walker who used the slowest news day of the year, the friday after the fourth of july, to stage a camera-free signing ceremony for a ban mandating ultrasound for women seeking abortions. marco rubio is being pressured to lead the push in the senate for a ban on abortions after 20 weeks that house republicans recently passed. we've talked a lot since last november's election about fracturing or potential fracturing in the republican party, but when tmz-t comes to the issue of abortion, that fracturing is nowhere to be seen. if you're an ambitious republican politician, a member of congress who wants to run for governor or senate or a governor or senator who's dreaming of running for the white house, if you're that kind of ambitious republican it's no longer just enough to say you're pro life. there is more pressure with the kind of legislation we've ever seen before, there is more pressure in state capitols and on capitol hill to enact that kind of legislation. th

charlie, you recall talking you were talking about john kasic in ohio, it would stripped funds from plannedal dollars are distributed among the state's family planning centers and puts planned parenthood at the end of the list. this is frightening what is happening state by state. >> this is done by the state budget. this is the sneakiest way to do it. at least they're stealing women's rights in texas fairly in the daylight. you can't repeal this at the polls. you can't, like, bring the incredible proposal that gags any rape center, which is part of this thing and you can't do anything about it or you would have to recall the entire budget. you can't do that. >> stephanie: to sum it up, you say this will not stop until it's impossible for a woman to exercise her right to choose anywhere. there is no middle ground. there never has been. >> they're after birth control as much as they're after abortion. >> stephanie: which makes no sense. >> no, because all the dirty who have sex that god does not approve of should have babies, so let it be written so let it be done. >> stephanie: in such a ro
