this room would be empty if we had failed brett kavanaugh.rett kavanaugh lived a life we should all be proud of. he worked hard. and the way he was treated was the worst experience i have had in politics. a lot of people would have pulled the plug on him. mr. president, thank you for not pulling the plug. [applause] and let me say why i support it. who would have been after brett had he gone down? what conservative young lawyer would want to go through this if we had failed brett kavanaugh? so chuck was right. when you run, and you get reelected a year from now, one of the main reasons is that people in the conservative world believe that you fight for judges. god bless you. [applause] pres. trump: thank you very much. [applause] thank you very much. very nice. [applause] we can say that for everybody here. we had, i don't think any of them -- look, i know you all very well. i don't think anyone had any thoughts of doing anything different, at least in this group. i will say, and that includes mike -- at that time we did not know bill. he was

let's look at how abc covered brett kavanaugh. >> a detailed, moving account of brett kavanaugh's attackly assault her or physically harm her in any way? >> embedded supreme court nominee brett kavanaugh fighting to save his nomination and his name. rob: completely unconfirmed claims against brett kavanaugh versus what we saw was jeffrey epstein, this is something else. carley: this continues to come out, a lot of people saying abc news has been hypocritical as you mentioned. they say does not adhere to journalistic standards. they had no problems smearing brett kavanaugh when they didn't have corroborating evidence. the question is why? part of it is ties to epstein, the clintons, stephanopoulos, the story will unfold and we will learn more. carley: abc news release a statement of fox saying not all the reporting met our standards to air but we never never stopped investigating the story. but then you listen to amy roback saying we had pictures, we had all these ties to the clintons and they were concerned about the palace getting involved. do you think abc news was trying to cover the

at least js kavanaugh wrote it was unconstitutional. defendant interpol clementinter paul cleme. i don't believe you ever appear before the supreme court without a client? >> no, i'd be happy to. in a sense i feel very empowered because this happens from time to time usually and lower profile cases in the circumstance where the government decides they cannot defend the judge and the court will appoint a lawyer to defend the judge below. that's essentially what happened here but a much higher profile case and often they fill the point along clerk to defend the judgment. >> yeah, i really actually thought my moment had passed and appointed for something like this. but it is empowering because i literally have no clients, i was thinking to have to open up a new client matter and run a conflict check on the client, the answer is no. i do not have a client. i am in a court appointed -- it's like -- i told this to nina, i was thinking about the process of putting my brief together and in every other case i've had i have to build in a week to let the client review the brief engine occur

term term, the first term justice kavanaugh was on the court, it was extremely divided. the justices took up quite controversial issues. whether that was by design to discussion out of the conversation and lower the temperature. this term they are taking up almost every hot button issue. once thate cover, the make the headlines. abortion,be about flashpoint social issues, daca, they are all on the plate this year. i know that is a real concern for some of the justices this year, including the chief justice. there is a concern by some of the justices, including the chief justice, that court packing is on the minds of a lot of democratic presidential candidates. enere is an effort to less this flashpoint with the court being part of the conversation, resolve cases narrowly where they can, no big swing for the fences opinions on these hot button issues. may, this could be one where they just take a pass. i agree with neil on that. just let the second circuit decision stand. i'm inclined to agree with neil, but my final point is predicting the supreme court right now is real

>> you know, the kavanaugh hearings and the political fallout from the kavanaugh hearings are reallyt looked nobt senate, but the incumbent senators who voted against brett kavanaugh and lost were probably going to lose anyway. the most likely person who might have really hurt himself was indiana senator joe donnelly, but probably -- >> he lost by a lot. not a little it. >> but looking at the others, he is the one who you would sort of think, well, maybe, might have been, so i think that the idea is it should be a galvanizing issue, especially for those voters, especially now, what this book is about is the 30-year battle that conservatives have undertaken to gain control of the supreme court, to have a conservative part. they finally have that with brett kavanaugh on there. they have five solid conservative votes. so what are the issues of concern to suburban women? yes, they care about health care. but they also care about things like reproductive rights, and there's a lot of concern in those suburban areas about things like gay rights. this court, this new brett kavanaugh court is

>>the palo alto professor who accused supremecourt justice brett kavanaugh all of sexual-assault just cepted courage award here from the aclu in a rare public pearance. christine blasey ford took the staglast night in beverly hills. last year blas e ford accused then supreme court justice nominee. brett kavanaugh all of trying to sexually assault her at a house party when they were both teenagers in the 80's kavanaugh denied the allegations in september. 2018 she described thincident in emotional testimo before the senate judiciary committee plus the ford talked about the backlash. she received after cong forward. >>everyo would welcome my information. including beings prepared for the venom. the persistent attack. the vilification. the personal privacy. and the collateral damage to my friends anmy family. >>e courage award is named after roger baldwin, one of the founders ofthe aclu. plus the ford said she was honored to accept the award. >>had 3 people are de after an early m there are those who will say at you're: too fat. too skinny. too hard. too . too old. too much. too unexcted

last term and first term, brett kavanaugh was on the court, it was extremely quiet. the justices punted on a lot of high profile, controversial issues. whether that was designed to take the court out of the conversation, this time it is very different. and we in tv. the ones that make the headlines, which paul has the will they be about abortion or those flash point social issues, they are all on the plate and that is a real concern for the justices this term already including the chief justice that the court may not be such a conversation in 2020, there's concern by some of the justice including the chief justice that court packing is on the minds of a lot of democratic president contenders. there is an effort, the flash point, to resolve cases narrowly where they can, no big swing for the fence's, opinion for these hot button cases. be that as it may, there is one to take a pass on. i agree with neil on that and let the second circuit decision span. i'm inclined to agree with neil but my final point is predicting the supreme court right now is really folly. you can

. >> i would say i kind of agree with neil in in the first term when justice kavanaugh was on the court, it was extremely quiet and had a lot of high profile controversial issues. whether that was by divine to take the court out of the conversation and lower the temperature in the justice they it's not. this term is very different print this term they are taking up almost every issue that you can think of. that we and tv, thus the ones we cover not the really important ones but the ones that make the headlines that will be about gun rights and about abortion, those kind of flashpoint social issues, daca, immigration issues. there on the plaintiff. i know that is a real concern for some of the justices that this term already including the chief justice that the court not be such a part of the conversation going into 2020, there's a concern by the justices including the chief justice, court hacking is very much on the mind of the democratic contenders. there is an effort to try to lessen this flashpoint in the court being a part of the conversation and resolve cases narrowly where they ca

in the first term that justice kavanaugh was on. if you look back at, you and i have covered the court for a long time. we have had blockbuster terms before where there are five or six incredibly controversial issues. what is interesting about this year and this court in particular is that it is still a court and transition. the supreme court, obviously we ad a new justice and relatively new justice that president trump put on the supreme court. the part great hope on of conservatives that justice kavanaugh will be a more reliable conservative vote then justice was. there is great hope that just as gorsuch will be a solidly conservative voice like justice scalia was. -- there's great for fear on the part of liberals that both of those things are going to happen and that president trump might get another nomination. which by the way, justin ginsberg is back at work, but she does not look like she has missed a beat. she is active as ever during oral arguments and if you have anything that suggests otherwise, but to me, it looks like s

class is thomases bought ten paid for and shouldn't he be thrown off the courtai and also tgiven kavanaugh demonstrae lies doing his hearings to be on the court, should he be some.of the board. so the only way to remove a justice of the supreme court as you know is through impeachment and removal similar to the way the president would agree remove. currently there is no recourse or reprimand or inexcusable behaviorsco that he referred to see that i part of impeachment. right now is being debated. the democratic and republican circles. singer is this judicial chronic neck and lower judges and black coat judges can they be rebuilt of cases, ricardo to mandatory sensitivity training in the all these things getting done and there's a whole judicial process investigation is occur for misconduct investigation with her, doesn't exist supreme court may understand your frustration but there are certain ethical lapses supreme court justices have worked clearly at the monday to be more but more needs to be done to ensure that justices are held accountable. just talking about it and realizing that the

congress, ranor for the house in 2018, she said she would not have voted for brett kavanaugh. i talked to her about it. she said she basically choked and was very sorry that happened. that probably cost her some democratic support. whether she can recapture some of those people is a good question. she is going to have to make an effort to do it. she has raised over $10 million. she has an incredible national brand. she did well in lexington. she only lost the race in central kentucky by three percentage points. she has proven she can be a force. somebodynning against who has 99% name recognition and kentucky, which she does not have yet. i think her name recognition is basically restricted to louisville and lexington. she is going to have to work on that if she is in the primary. going back to our question, i did advocate hoping people would get in because i think she is likely to be our nominee. have a primary where she refines her campaign skills. you are dealing with mitch mcconnell. i have known him for 50 years. mitch mcconnell is tough. he is savvy. he will have tons of

the justice kavanaugh was on the court, it's extremely quiet. the justices had high profile controversial issues whether the hours by design to take the court out of the conversation, the justices say it's not. this time is very different. this term, they are taking up almost every issue. we end tv and what we cover, the ones that make the headlines will be about gun rights, they are going to be about abortion and social issues. immigration issues. they are all on the basis here. they are a concern for some of the justices this term already including the chief justice. the court is not part of the conversation going into 2020. there's a current by some of the justices that court packing is very much on then minds of a lot of different presidential contenders. there is an effort to try to kind of lesson this court being a part of the conversation. resolve cases where they can, no big defenses opinions on some of these cases. so be that as it may, this would be one where they could take it. i agree withh neil on that. you can't tell if it's too so

i don't think it is going to be like kavanaugh at all.t's not going to be that interesting because it is about a phone call, it's about a president doing his job and it's about the opinions about whether it is appropriate or inappropriate. it's about opinions. here's my production, the democrats are going to do their best to draw out the emotion by using questions like, "did you feel threatened? how did it make you feel?" it's basically going to be group therapy in which the shrink is going to be asking the children, how mean what is your daddy? trump being the daddy. your point yesterday about how the media had to change the language, anderson cooper last night said trump was orchestrating a shakedown. how do you orchestrate a shakedown in public when you want ukrainian officials to publicize it and the person being shut down is completely unaware they are being shipped down. i think they realized that quid pro quo is a no-go. they are desperate for a new language, and this is going to be failed. the best the media can do right now, beca

brett kavanaugh is a teenage asked paul alcoholic. did a lot of really stuff and then went on to lead an upright life and was apparently an unbelievably fair boss to women promoted women made sure his office was 50% women and his clerks were 50% women. is there a statute of limitations in shall we say okay brett kavanaugh teenage asked whole. how many of us were teenage asked holes? and a lot of these cases that go back 20, 30 or 40 years statutes of limitations enough. i think we should consider it. i'm not trying to dodge. i don't have the answer to these questions but i wrote the book to try to figure out why we have such a hard time talking about this. a lot of the stuff especially when it comes to what people upset in the past and what people of tweeted i think we should set a date where we -- we need to grandfather some people in. we need to set a date and say okay whatever happened after this point and i might be 2017. this stuff is really new and whatever you've done to this point you are on the record and you will be accounta

a primary would be helpful to her. >> with all due respect, if you said she choked on the brett kavanaugh vote, is she ready for a statewide election? rep. yarmuth: well, we will see. i don't know that yet. she says she choked. she told me. [laughter] she was in an interview with the editorial board at the courier-journal here and was not expecting the question, according to her, wasn't expecting the question and blank. i think that calls into question how sharp she will be, for mitch mcconnell. but she's a very smart person. she is totally dedicated to public service. and she has a great resume. she inspires a lot of people. so, she has a lot going for her, and hopefully will be sharper than when she started the campaign and take on mitch. >> we will let you get a drink of water. questions from andy of "the wall street journal." andy: what is your understanding of where things are on the 302b subcommittee allocations, and what will reaching that initial agreement say for future negotiations during the rest of the year? rep. yarmuth: well, i think we have actually over the last couple yea

brett kavanaugh and the conservative takeover.ving but "the washington post" is starting to report out the book now. ruth, congratulations. you set the stage a little bit with the kavanaugh hearings. i think in a similar way as we've been watching the impeachment hearings only in the ways that it mirrors the sort of tribalism that we've seen, the rush to judgment, political parties running to their battle stations before the evidence is presented '. what are the parallels here? >> well, so a bunch of people including both me and tucker carlson of all people, this feels a little bit like kavanaugh 2.0, impeachment does. and what i mean by that is some of what you mention, the reflects of tribalism, the unwillingness to consider evidence, the unwillingness to call witnesses who might shed light on the matter as we were discussing earlier. and the complaint, we heard this from republicans about the last-minute nature of the allegations about justice kavanaugh. the complaint about process on why is this coming up at the last minute, a

the government argues extra toward territoriality and i hope i've played in response to justice kavanaugh's question, we don't think extraterritoriality is implicated here because this case touches and concerns us territory with forced to displace the presumption and the third special factor in both sides, respondent and the government 's congressional action and i think in that context there is no example of congress specifically trying to preclude claims like the kitchener's here and the only time congress has ever spoken to the tort liability of again justice gorsuch this is where we get our test from, individual law-enforcement officers. congress has expanded that liability . >> there has been diplomatic correspondence between the mexican government and our government with respect to this incident. the border patrol has conducted an investigation and it's reached the determination that the action of the agent was not contrary to policy and you would have the courts look into this by a, providing a bivens remedy that could come to the opposite conclusion so that in terms of our relations

the same jerks in the media who are enamored by the dossier, enamored by collusion, enamored by kavanaugh the cabin the accusers, lazy forward, coming to they got every single new story wrong. they've got to get a focus group to save them. >> jesse: explain how this is bribery. >> juan: first of all -- you know how many focus groups are done in politics? it's endless. >> greg: should you be a focus grouping for impeachment? >> juan: its politics! this is a political process. your argument, quid pro quo literally means there is a bribe involved. yes, that's what it is. and the problem with president trump is it wasn't for the national interest, it was for his political, personal interest. >> greg: they coincide. >> juan: defending ukraine from -- >> greg: what happens if the leading candidate might be compromised by ukraine? >> juan: what happened is the leading candidate joe biden is beating the pants off of him in every poll. >> jesse: why does nobody want to jump in the democrat race? >> juan: look at the numbers, it's unbelievable. >> jesse: i want to play some sound from david gregory

kavanaugh, kavanaugh, kavanaugh. now we have credible allegations against the lieutenant governor of the commonwealth of virginia about rape and violent sexual assault. not one i believer. they cared about russian interference. they didn't give a about hillary clinton's bought and paid for russian dossier full of lies. that was used in the 2016 election. they don care that hillary clinton, if any of you ever have anything subpoenaed, i'm going to give you advice, acid wash your hard drive with bleach pit, then bust up your devices with hammers and remove the sim cards. good luck to you. because unless your name is clinton you're going to jail. and then you've got the dirty russian dossier that was never verified, unverifiable, because the guy that put it together, christopher steele, under oath, said i don't know if it's true. we also have the outsourcing of illegal spying to our allies to circumvent american law. here's what i'm going to say to you. i have down here the transcript. donald trump's phone call with the

a case that brett kavanaugh was actually sitting on. except it was an abortion case about whether undocumented minors should have access to reproductive health care when they are in office of refugee resettlement custody. audio fourthe circuit and in the second circuit for trump tax cases. the third circuit in philadelphia and the seventh circuit in chicago have started doing video on a delayed basis. court releases audio at the end of the week for its first hearings and we think the court should do at least live audio if not video. host: what's the biggest argument against live video? >> they are worried it would change things. there a lot of back and forth. there's a lot of jargon being thrown out and they think maybe the american people can't understand what's going on. i think it would show justices on the right agreeing more often than they don't with justices on the left and seeing that high-level conversation. american knows what the criminal career act is. we would like to at least believe that one branch of our government is wo

kavanaugh gave a speech close to here last night and they showed up with a giant screen and they playedne blasey ford's testimony from the hearings. they've got to move on. >> bret: and the loser? >> that was a loser. >> bret: i thought you would give another loser. it's a big week. >> former president jimmy carter recovering well from surgery to remove fluid from his brain for that's good news. and i think losers, i think roger stone los the week. >> bret: winners and losers? >> the winner is marie yovanovitch for the reason i laid out. loser is matthew dodd who tweeted that elise stefanik's questions in the impeachment hearings as a reminder just because she's a woman and millennial, she's not the kind of leader the country needs. he later deleted this tweet. i'm troubled by the president's behavior in a way that elise stefanik's is not, but we can have that this agreement. you do not have to be condescending. she does not need to be condescended to by a resistance clearly cheerleader posing as an analyst. >> bret: next week, biggest testimony, ambassador sondland? >> his testimony ha

stealing the kavanaugh thing sort of blew up in their face.mueller thing didn't pan out the way they hoped, but they said this time is different, they got the goods in the president and he's really in trouble this time. >> if that were the case, we'd know about it and we would've known about it already four weeks. we know that isn't true because they haven't brought that forward. look, nancy pelosi can't control her own congress paid that's why we are in this mess. she's held captive over this issue and that's why she agreed to move forward. the only problem is there is no there there that we can see and in the absence of any there they are that it's going to blow up in her face. >> shannon: you heard in the early reporting that what he things about the speaker, her intentions have been to give the president a fair and impartial firing squad, that she's already assumed he's guilty. this is what speaker pelosi said to chat program whose archery producer over on the hill. he said, what's the message going to be for tomorrow? she set them the mes

when judge kavanaugh was up for a supreme court case i don't remember gma one of whose anchors was ad of jeffrey epstein, i don't remember them pulling back on those allegations of sexual assault at all. >> you know, that's why this story is getting coverage, again, to go back to abc's statement they say our story was not ready for air which, by the way. >> tucker: liars. >> you brought up nbc. that sounds very familiar, right? nbc said with ronan farrow harvey wine stein that story wasn't ready. there is a parallel for sure. >> tucker: whole thing no wonder people are paranoid about the media. they have every reason to be. elizabeth, thanks so much for that i appreciate it. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: that robach tape you should watch it. more abc's role in spiking the story she also expressed her thoughts about how jeffrey epstein died. watch this. >> so do i think he was killed? 100 percent. yes, i do. because you want -- he made his whole living blackmailing people. there are a lot of men on those planes, a lot of men who visited that island. a lot of powerful men who came i

they are going to screw this up like they screwed up the kavanaugh thing. they want it too much.ause they want it too much, they are making tactical and strategic mistakes. >> harris: as rush limbaugh asks or says to the met, do the democrats wanted to much? >> brian: behind closed doors is almost like the pregame show. we learned what they had to say about the ukraine information. there was a belief among democrats that if you put the mueller report on television, because no one wants to read the book, it would be very devastating for the president. if it reads, if they bring the same people out to say roughly the same things, i think it will go -- i think it will be good for the president. but i sense there are surprises here. i get this and someone will come out and say, "i don't like the we do it with russia, either." >> why do you think that? >> brian: i can see the ending to clear. democrats are going to believe the president is guilty, republicans are going to make him unimpeachable, and diddle at a brick wall in the senate. something tells me, because i've been alive for

one thing we know is kavanaugh shouldn't have been confirmed because he lied about having a drinkinger oath. that much has been established. >> i think unfortunately her claim does not rise to the necessary evidentiary standard. i don't think there's anything they could have done. i believe her. i absolutely believe her. i just think, is this what it's come to? why can't we have these discussions absent the iconography here. >> let me take it from another avenue, rick avenue, ass hole, brett kavanaugh teenage ass hole. did a lot of really crappy stuff. then went on to lead really upright life and apparently unbelievably fair boss two women promoted women made sure his office was 50% women. >> i wrote the book trying to figure out why we have such a hard time talking about this. we need to grandfather some people and set a date and say whatever happened Ãbthe stuff is really new. whatever you do after this point. you're on the record you will be accountable. my paygrade would be much higher. >> going to work for betsy devos or something like that. [multiple speakers] she was right abo

abc went full on to the story of michael avenatti's client accusing brett kavanaugh of doing all theseer to say, whoops, i actually didn't know him at all. where was your corroboration concerns on that one, abc? theythey are just so full of something that i cannot say on tv. howard: thank you for censoring yourself there. amy proback said i was caught in a or private moment, i was upset. now, i spoke to a senior abc news executive who said amy robach doesn't know all the fact s. we were going to report on her positions of bill clinton and prince andrew, but that it was taken out of court records before they aired, and they didn't feel they had the cooperation, and finally the executive said, yeah, the network could have run with her other allegationings about epstein. remember, she was 17 when this all started, but gma lost interest when it couldn't name the big celebrities. >> listen, the statement doesn't make any sense when you see some of the other stories that they've run about brett kavanaugh. there was no corroboration there or someone not even knowing the guy would have certain

the chief justice john roberts as well as the junior most justice, robert kavanaugh. trump administration rescinded this policy in the proper way and gave adequate reasons for it. they said the agencies have discretion in maybe rolling back the daca policy, and justice kavanaugh talked about agency discretion as well and leaving this up to the agencies. you'll remember, kate, it was the census case where kavanaugh was the wild card here saying the justices had a role in the census case but didn't roll it out the right way. so will they maybe rule with the liberal justices here? this is all uncertain at this point. we're expecting possibly a ruling around the time of june, which of course would be at the height of the 2020 election, once guenin jeagain injecting in into the 2020 election. kate? >> i'm glad you were inside to hear those arguments. thank you, jessica, i really appreciate it. >>> former president jimmy cart is recovering from brain injury. we'll have an update on jimmy carter's condition. for all of the heroes who serve us, t-mobile is here to help serve

>>it's the california professor who accused supreme court justice brett kavanaugh all of sexuaassaultcepted courage award from the aclu in a rare public apearance christine blasey ford a palo alto took the stage last night in beverly hills. last year. plus the ford accud then supreme court justice nominee brett kavanaugh love trying to sexually assault her at a house party when they were both teegers in the 80's kavanaugh denied the allegations in septemb of 2018 she described the incint in emotional testimony before the senate judiciary committee. last nighwas the ford talked about the backlash. she receiveafter going forward. sorry john legend but you have been dethroned coming up we'll take a look at the cover that snoop dogg release and that has sparked a new debate on who's the sexiest man alive. they nt to skip the commercials and get more news during the break make we planned. it'sgreat. ok? now i'm spending more time with the kids. i'introducing them to crab. crab!? they lovit. , you mentioned that that money we t aside. yeah. the kids and i want to build our own crab shack. ♪

at the credibility of a potentially damaging witness," a combative hearing like what we saw with kavanaugh, is that the winning strategy here for republicans? >> they may try to replicate that and i would concede they had some success in doing that in the kavanaugh hearing but it's going to be very difficult to do when you have career foreign service agents, people who worked for the united states government to further our interests around the world, particularly with the first three, including the former ambassador yovanovitch. people will say -- they may not be familiar with what goes on, to try to further our interest in the world and what they do. these people, i don't know them personally but they strike me as people with the genuine interest of the united states in mind. you're going to see that donald trump, through rudy giuliani, and through very -- two par nez and furman, under indictment in the district of new york, if you did a 20-minute google search on either one of them you would have seen they were really bad characters and they went over there to undermine the whole united

there was actually 20000000 americans that watched that hearing and the testimony against brett kavanaugh so it seems that the u.s. public is less and less interested in these congressional investigations and hearings but the impeachment inquiry hearings will continue and more testimony is coming and date capable pin thank you both. these kind of open speaking life new york thank you. number of children in the u.k. known to have suffered abuse linked to witchcraft is rising according to local government figures but since most of those who practice that come from abroad the british government is being accused of turning a blind eye to phase it could face accusations of racism that shoddy at woodstock's he takes up the story. hidden under the guise of religion faith and belief witchcraft is an ever increasing threat in child abuse cases in britain the number of such incidents has risen by more than a 3rd in just 2 years as local council say they are housing the equivalent of 38 cases every single week the shocking research released by the u.k.'s local government association also highlights

a lot of questions about how jeffrey epstein's story got buried three years ago and, yet, brett kavanaugh's was fair game. good evening, everybody, i'm martha mccallum and this is "the story" and we begin tonight with the absolutely horrifying story coming out of mexico tonight. at least nine americans, three women and six children, including 8 mold twins were massacred in their vehicles in mexico. their bullet-ridden, burned out cars discovered in an area that's known for drug and migrant smuggling. [crying] this is for the record. anita and four of my grandchildren are burnt and shot up. >> martha: horrifying, all of it. in moments we will be joined by the aunt of donna langford. donna was one of the women killed in that attack along with two of her children. but, first, chief breaking news correspondent trace gallagher brings us the very latest on this investigation in this unspeakable tragedy. trace? >> martha, the theory that because these families were driving suvs they may have been mistaken for rival cartel members appears to have zero credibility. we now know these vehicles were mi

justice brett kavanaugh, mitch refused to cave to the left wing mob. and that is what it was, a mob. there has never been a man treated so badly in washington as judge brett kavanaugh. previously judge but now just us, we got him in and he is great and he will be great.
