course, like alito said with the arrest of that man who was arrested for attempting to murder justice kavanaughat today. we learned other things from the speech he gave. one thing is it sure sounds like you said, that they haven't found the leaker. he wasn't absolutely clear about that, but he suggested that the leaker hadn't been found, but he echoed chief justice john roberts, sort of suggesting that now the court wants to move on, put last term behind them and move on away from that, but he also made a very important point near the end of his speech last night, and that is he defended the legitimacy of the court, and he didn't mention the fact that liberal members such as kagan and sotomayor had really questioned last term's opinion. he said, you can criticize his opinions all you want, but don't call into question the character of the justices or the legitimacy of the court. that was a really strong speech last night from justice alito. >> the justices may disagree on issues, that's for sure, but when it comes to the character of the court, they seem to agree on that. thank you. >> thanks.

brett kavanaugh, nancy pelosi. that is deeply troubling. i totally understand where folks are voting their pocketbook but there are two important campaigns happening in this country. >> i want to be careful until we hear from the police chief directly but jamie gangel's reporting suggests this is a targeting of the speaker of the house. you make a key point about voters out there at this time when exhausted from the covid pandemic, dealing with inflation and stretch on family budgets, you have obama saying we should be talking more about budget, and some say why is our society so coarse? bret the question is, how are voters inundated by this? how do they choose from this mix of issues? >> for people who haven't decided yet, it will probably be the moment they cast their ballot. if they had deep ideological positions they would have decided by now. in terms of biden and obama and others hitting the trail, if they can keep the base enthused post-dobbs, get them out to vote t will stem some losses. if the democratic party is depressed, republi

justice amy coney barrett and justice kavanaugh, they are wondering out loud if time might essentially affirmative action, because in the 2003 it was sandra day o'connor who wrote in the opinion ma maybe the practice wouldn't be needed after 25 more years. so this spring will mark 20 years since the 2003 decision. conservatives on this court has been talking in these arguments about maybe using that timeline as a rational for banning affirmative action, maybe in the coming years, maybe in the next five years so we'll see how the court comes to a conclusion on that. >> thank you. >>> let's turn to this more anti-semitic hate that needs to be called out. this time in florida. a series of anti-semitic messages that appeared around jacksonville over the weekend, one strolling message on a football stadium reading kanye was right about the jews. after the rants made by the rapper in recent days and weeks. we are live in jacksonville. layla, what with you hearing about this? >> reporter: well, kate, just in the last half hour the fbi has confirmed that the jacksonville sheriff's office is in
