they want to rig it. laura: we also learned that a symbol of the stop the steal movement reached the highest court in the land. the new york times reported that in january of 2021, an upside down american flag -- an emblem now widely associated with the lie of a stolen 2020 election -- was flying at the home of supreme court justice samuel alito. i spoke with jodi kantor, the new york times reporter who broke the story, earlier today. we discussed the implications of such a symbol flying at alito's home, 11 days after writers stormed the capital. jodi: i kind of want to start with the neighbors and what they saw. they are walking down the street after this very fraud. , but also critically, it is three days before president biden's inauguration. they see this upside down flag hanging outside the alito home. at this point the flag really become a symbol of the stop the steal campaign, and neighbors are having a kind of what the heck reaction. these are washington, d.c. area people commit -- people. they know fed

the visceral gut reaction to the people and the parties, absolutely matters. >> laura: any legal analystho isn't calling this what it is, a political hit job masquerading as a felony case is doing just a huge disservice to the country. and also a disservice to whatever law degree you got. now, today, there was nothing and i mean nothing said which is quite something that was relevant to the ultimate question in this case. falsify business records 11 years after his alleged tryst with daniels in furtherance of a crime to supposedly, of course, interfere with the election. but, the encounter itself which happened, again, 18 years ago, people don't realize 2006. whatever happened there totally irrelevant to proving the underlying charges. again, this isn't a case about extramarital affairs, it's not even a case about shady business records when you think about it. after all remember, remember. they insisted bill clinton's steamy hookups they were with an intern and in the white house. but that was a private matter. and they weren't bothered when hillary's blackberries were magically wiped c

and whether he will be able to afford that life. laurad in michigan became a blueprint for how to organize around abortion effectively. ohio followed suit in 2023. now the right to an abortion will be on the ballot this november in three states including florida, which currently bans any kind of termination after six weeks of pregnancy. and similar initiatives could end up on the ballot in up to nine other states this year, including the battlegrounds of arizona and nevada. >> what happened in 2022 was not an anomaly. laura: back in michigan, state activists like shanay watson-whittaker - who works for the non-profit reproductive freedom for all -- were instrumental in mobilizing voters in 2022. two years later, she's sharing that strategy. shanay: michigan, for a lot of folks, has been like a north star. we specifically and intentionally had conversations with black clergy, with clergy from other denominations, sat them down and talked about reproductive freedom. what people forget are that clergy are humans. they've experienced loss, mi

it never seems to be out of the political picture. laurafinley is the conservative opinion editor at "the detroit news." what exactly would you like to see either the presidential nominee, donald trump, lay out or other republicans across the board in terms of the specific policy? nolan: i would like him to stay away from the federal policy. i think that's what's the point of the dobbs ruling. but i think the nikki haley, solution of let's all sit down and find out where we can agree in terms of a point in the pregnancy where we're going to say you've had time to make your choice. laura: whether it's six, 15 weeks? nolan: 15, maybe 20, somewhere in that range where people can settle and say this is fair. this allows people time to make their decision. this allows you to deal with rape and incest, etc., but it also prevents, you know, something i think most people would be opposed to, and that is abortion in the last month or so of pregnancy. laura: for voters we spoke to in lansing, they're heeding calls that abortion is an issue to turn ou

are they going to go down with the ship? laura, good to be with you. i'll tell you, i think they've realized the mistakes. i've had conversations with a lot of people you probably say are from the donor class, are starting to see what's actually happened to the country, realize the full impacts. and i think they're going to join us this november first, second and third. i think they really do care about the country. they want the country to move forward. but i think we entered this weird space in politics the last decade or so that what you said and how you said it mattered significantly more than what was actually done and the impacts of that policy. and now that the reality of the terrible democrat policy has come home for america to see, i think a lot of those those donors, a lot of those voters are going to be coming back home and they're going to vote donald trump this november. yeah. the only future for the republican party, the only future is a multiethnic, working class future. that's it. so this idea that we're going to go back to the glory da
