leonard leo's goal in life is to repeal roe. he comes up with a list. you think you put any slackers in his opinion on that list? no. judge kavanagh got the nomination not because he will be an impartial judge on behalf of all americans, but because he passed president trump's litmus freedomrepeal women's for their reproductive rights, repeal america's health care including protection of pre-existing conditions. if judge kavanaugh was to be can confirmed, women's reproductive rights would be in the hands of five men on the supreme court. women or menat the of america want. judge kavanaugh's own writings make clear that he would rule gets reproductive rights and freedoms and that he would welcome challenges to the constitutionality of the affordable care act of our health care act. judge kavanaugh has argued that the supreme court should question the constitutionality of the affordable care act. he openly criticized the supreme court when they upheld the law. he is no neutral arbiter. he has already made up his mind. he would not have been approved by th

ella no podía creerlo cuando luego de mucho preguntar le dieron razón de leo.hí. danay: a los pocos días de esa llamada recibió otra noticia y se hizo la ilusión de que se reuniría con leo. lourdes: me llamaron para que yo firmara mi deportación. y antes de firmar la deportación le dije que sí iba a ir, iba a viajar junto con mi hijo a guatemala, y él me dijo que sí. luego me llamaron los del cónsul, y el cónsul me dijo todo lo contrario. danay: tal como consta en este documento, enviado por el servicio de inmigración y control de aduanas ice, lourdes acepta firmar su deportación porque entendió que leo sería deportado poco después. lourdes: que si lo esperaba, entonces me dijeron que no, que iba a ser cinco meses o más. si venía, iba a ser dos meses. por lo mismo tomé la decisión de venirme. danay: lourdes regresó a su casa en guatemala el 8 de junio. lourdes: yo siempre me esforcé en darle todo, todo lo que yo pude. cuando yo caí a guatemala me sentía que venía con las manos vacías, porque no regresé con él y me sentía culpable, me sentía culpable porque le f

wade than the federalist society's leonard leo. if anyone believes that judge kavanaugh or anyone else on the list would uphold roe v. wade, then i have a bridge to sell them. leonard leo's goal in life is to repeal roe. he comes up with the list. do you think he put any slack ardz, -- slackards, in his opinion, on that list? no. judge kavanaugh got the nomination, not because he will an impartial judge on behalf of all americans, but because he passed president trump's litmus tests -- repeal women's freedom or their reproductive rights, repeal americans' health care, including protection of preexisting conditions. if judge kavanaugh was to be confirmed, women's reproductive rights would be in the hands of five men on the supreme court. that's not what the women or the men of america want. judge kavanaugh's own writings make clear that he would rule against reproductive rights and freedoms and that he would welcome challenges to the constitutionality of the affordable care act, of our health care act. judge kavanaugh has argued tha

wade than the federalist society's leonard leo.t has been your goal. >> my goal first and foremost has always been to find people to serve on the court who believe in the constitution as it's written. that's really ultimately what drives the conservative legal movement. you want judges on the court who understand that the best way to preserve freedom and dignity and prosperity in this country is to have people who are going to interpret the constitution as it's written and not play politics when they're judges. >> are you confident that anyone the president nominates tomorrow night can get confirmed before the mid-terms, that the democrats would not be able to hold up the nomination until after the mid-terms? >> i'm very confident with this president's enthusiasm and with leader mcconnell's enthusiasm that they can get anybody confirmed. >> leonard leo, thanks very much. let's get a response from the other side. senator richard blumenthal. democrat from connecticut. member of the senate judiciary committee. you heard leonard leo ex

leo's friend, ed whelan, brags about leo's efforts stating, quote, no one has been more dedicated to the enterprise of building a supreme court to overturn roe v. wade and the federalist society, leonard leo. of united states outsource this decision to the federalist society and other groups long intent on they produced for him a list. he selected from that list and the rest is an unfortunate, deeply tragic chapter in american history. the heritage foundation has been vehement in its desire to overturn and strike down the affordable care act, and deny many americans access to health insurance. it has fought to end the protection to people who suffer from these conditions, and they arend not only the ones i mentioned, but also many others that are common throughout our society. it's efforts to shape the supreme court are a part of a conscious concerted strategy in a war on the aca. and perhaps as troubling as any of the fact about this nominee, too many of us who have seen the horrific, unspeakable effects of gun violence, judge kavanaugh is the dream candidate of the nra. he has take

wade than leonard leo. now, normally in the senate, we have a process of advise and consent on the supreme court. in the old days, the president would consult with republicans and democrats in the senate on a qualified judge. and then after careful deliberation, nominated jurists that could get bipartisan support. what we have here is the exact opposite. the president has gone to two far out of the mainstream, hard-right groups, the heritage foundation and the federalist society, and asked them, not the senate, to advise and consent on a supreme court nomination. whomever the president selects tonight, if that nominee is from the preapproved list selected by leo and the heritage foundation, everyone ought to understand what it means for the freedom of women to make their own health care decisions. and for the protection for americans with pre-existing conditions. those rights will be gravely threatened. mr. president, now, we're going to hear a lot this summer about precedence. the traditional question on t

this is irish prime minister leo varadkar saying he will ban british planes as revenge for brexit.ishing. he says... you would not know that from this headline, i have to say. it is a retaliation for britain asserting its right to its fishing waters after brexit, and leo varadkar, according to the sun reports, said you can't take back your waters, we expect to take back your waters, we expect to take back your skies. the suggestion is he. uk flights flying over ireland, and vice—versa, and a graphic they have in the sun talks about how if you are in ireland, you can only go spain for holidays, not across britain. so it is written from the irish point of view. theresa may is on the irish border tomorrow and tonight, and she is doing a speech tomorrow. there is concern amongst brexiteers in london that leo varadkar, who is the irish prime minister, is not really seeing the benefit of what brexit can do for the british isles is an area, and is being slightly played by brussels who are concerned about the impact of britain leaving on the european project, so are forgetting that there i

by two organizations that represent the hard right, the federalist society led by a man by leonard leo whose goal in life has been to overturn roe versus wade. in the heritage foundation, whose goal is to strike down healthcare loss and because they do not want the government to help people out when they have pre-existing conditions or other healthcare needs. here is what edward whalen, prominent conservative activist said about leonard leo, the man who put together the list that prompt tria trump promised to ce from. here's what he said, quote, no one has been more dedicated to the enterprise of building the supreme court that will overturn roe versus wade than the federal societies, leonard leo. if anyone believes that judge kavanaugh or anyone on the list would oppose roe v wade, then i have a bridge to sell you. the goal in life is to repeal this, he comes up with the list. to think he put slackers limitless? no. judge kavanaugh got the nomination not because will be an impartial judge, but because he pass the litmus test. repeal women's freedoms, their reproductive rights and heal

leonard leo's goal in life is to repeal it. he comes up with the list. did he put any slackers on this? no. judge kavanaugh got the nomination, not because he'll be an impartial judge, but as he passed the litmus test to repeal america's women's equal rights. if judge kavanaugh would be confirmed, women's reproductive rights would be in the hands of five men on the supreme court. that is not what the women or men of america want. judge kavanaugh's own writings makes clear he would rule against it. that he welcomes and challenges to the constitutionality of the fair to both care act. george kavanaugh has argued the supreme court should question the constitutionality of the affordable care act. he criticized the supreme court when he upheld the law. is not a mutual arbiter, he's already made up his mind. he would not have been approved by the heritage foundation if he wasn't certain he would repeal the aca. judge kavanaugh has argued the trump administration could keep a young girl in federal custody to prevent her from obtaining healthcare and employer sh

he's been talking to leonard leo. leo was on an outside orbit. don mcgann is his white house counsel. the president met with everybody except for hardiman last week. an interesting point to make. he's got a lot of people that he touched base with. we heard from mitch mcconnell and the potential difficulties in getting a confirmation with kavanaugh because of the length of his records and the amount of documents that would have to be gone over by the judicial committee and the senate. the potential for democrats to slow walk that process. maybe hardiman is somebody in the middle there. a staunch conservative. he was known as your guest pointed out the runner-up and doesn't trump feel like he owes him this time around. the same circuit as president trump's sister. and he's in town. again. it would be ironic, shep, because he's on the judicial conference of the united states, which typically meets up at the supreme court. so there's a chance that the supreme court nominee is at the supreme court today. wouldn't that be ironic? >> shepard: it would i

also we continue with leonard leo.ent's outside advisor on judicial nominees who's been with the president and inside the white house on this from the very beginning. it's great to have all of you on. leonard, we were just talking about this issue of murkowski and collins, two republican senators who are pro-choice and to the left had been courting to oppose this nominee. can our viewers at fox tonight assume that they have been consulted on this nomination? or is the president confident that in the end, they will vote to confirm judge kavanaugh? >> the president spoke with senator collins. senator collins made it clear what the road map is for confirmation. she said she wanted a judge was going to adhere to the constitution and the laws and she wanted someone who was going to respect major precedent in the court. if you look at brett kavanaugh's record, that's what you get. you get someone who struggles in grapples with precedent. he knows it's important and you've got to figure it out. and he adheres to the constitut

leonard leo's a man who also has strong ties to the judicial crisis network. that's the right-wing organization which helped block scores of obama judicial nominees and was key in the pr blitz to outright deny a hearing to president obama's last supreme court justice pick, judge merrick garland. helping mitch mcconnell effectively steal that supreme court seat. leonard leo is also connected to the dark money organization called bh group which according to the non-profit watchdog group open secrets, donated $1 million to the trump inauguration though it tried mightily to keep it a secret by donating anonymously. >> president trump during the campaign asked leonard leo, the founder of the federalist society, to assemble a list of possible supreme court justices for him to pick from. mr. leo was not only aware of candidates trump preferenced for a supreme court that would reverse voe v. wade. he himself spent his career in pursuit of it. no one has been more dedicated to overturning roe v. wade than the very man who chose the list of 25. >> so any one of presiden

leo plays an actor in tv westerns, and brad, his stunt double, that's leo and brad shooting a scene inream-colored cadillac last night, and quentin tarantino directing. but "e.t." has learned brad is focusing on more this week than just acting, a source tells us that the 54-year-old actor is balancing work with fatherhood. a judge's recent custody ruling is allowing the actor to be with his kids for an extended time, without angelina's involvent. according to court documents, brad has the kids until sunday and then must return them to angelina on sunday. and per their agreement, angelina is only allowed to call the kids once per day at a time agreed upon in advance. a source tells "e.t." brad has been with his kids at his los feliz home, adding there is "a lot of laughter" around the house. our source says that brad, who quit drinking in 2016, feels better than ever. and his dating life? well, we're told, "brad has chosen fatherhood over dating. adding, "he has dated quietly but has taken a step away from it because of the importance of his children and to help mend fences with angelin

wade, then the federalist society's leonard leo. the very man who chose the list of 25. that's what we are up against here. and that is why america is on tenterhooks. >> when he does this he is very serious. i mean i've known him for all r me. but the boots and compositional rides in the dumpster. but you have now become part of the story, how does that feel? >> you know, he made the supreme court the dividing issue in this election. he took ownership of this list and it was his idea. they propelled him to victory and helped to hold the senate. he continued that momentum with neil gorsuch and he hasne been n the driver's seat this entire process. this is not outsourced, and he owns this process. senator schumer, he is just hysterical. they will be hysterical through this process. and they will see the constitution, they love the constitution. >> laura: but they say you republicans didn't give barack obama and mary garland, and of courseve senator mcconnell, black back nominations from going forward. i think now, they think it's payback time. >> well if people didn't look

"the federalist" society led by len in order leo, whose -- leonard leo whose goal is to repeal roe v. wade putting it together and trump rubber-stamping it. given what the president has said, it is virtually certain that members of the list of 25 would vote to overturn roe. so let this be a call to action for americans from all corners of the country to rise up and speak out. don't let this new court, this new nominee, whomever he or she may be, turn back the clock on issue after issue or after issue, because president trump has embraced a hard-right group who has a veto power over nominees. don't let us turn back the clock, america. stand up. speak out. democrats, republicans, liberals, conservatives, all should want a much fairer process. america, tell your senators that if you do not want a supreme court justice who will overturn roe v. wade, those senators should not vote for a candidate from the list. i yield the i want to comment on the news that is very clearly closely connected. it is clear that justice kennedy's retirement

wade than leonard leo. now normally in the senate, we have a process of advising consent on the supreme court. in the old days, the president would consult with republicans and democrats in the senate on a qualified judge and then after careful deliberation nominate a jurist to get bipartisan support. what we have here is the exact opposite. the president has gone to two hard right groups, the heritage foundation and the federalist society, and asked them, not the senate, to advise and consent on a supreme court nomination. whomever the president selects tonight, if that nominee is from the preapproved list selected by leo and the heritage foundation, everyone ought to understand what it means for the freedom of women to make their own health care decisions and for the protection for americans with preexisting conditions. those rights will be gravely threatened. mr. president, we're going to hear a lot this summer about precedence. the traditional question on these matters has been will the nominee defer to

i want to go to now, as promised, to leonard leo. "the wall street journal" -- mr.vist who plays a critical role in supreme court picks. "the l.a. times" says you're the man to see if you aspire to the supreme court. the fourth pick you've played a role in. gorsuch actually told the senate judiciary committee his whole journey started, quote, when i was contacted with leonard leo working with the president-elect's transition team regarding the supreme court vacancy. here we are, leonard. the final countdown. final two, maybe four contenders. obviously you know things you're not going to be able to share right now but what was the hardest part of choosing here in these final hours? >> well, i think the president was extraordinarily engaged and very transparent. i think he really worked hard to make the right decision. he had extensive meetings with all of the finalists. he talked at length with his senior administration staff, particularly white house counsel don mcgahn. i think this has been, frankly, the most transparent and intense president we've seen in terms of

leo especially was a nasty fight. whoever the president picks this time, it will be a nasty, drag-out fight. >> agreed, john? >> i think it will be a fight with the outcome predetermined. i think we know this nominee from the president is going to be approved. we've gotten signals from people like jeff flake and susan collins that they're not going to let the prospect of a deciding vote on roe, which susan collins says she agrees with that decision, lisa murkowski, too, i don't think that's going to stop them. we know this is the best chance republicans have had to knock out roe, and i think the president has a preselected list of people who the republicans who advise the president know will go after roe. now, tactically, will they choose a more gradual approach of a thousand cuts rather than a frontal assault on roe? we don't know, but i think it is quite likely that if we don't have subsequent change in the court that we're headed toward a situation where roe will be badly eroded or gotten away with, and then you wo

leonard leo.similarly one more point here on health care. president trump said he wanted to repeal aca unlike what justice roberts wanted to do. and the heritage foundation, which also vetted this list, is firmly in favor of repealing. so you put those things together, trump, what he said, who he was going to choose, and the vetting of this list -- this nominee will repeal roe, and women's reproductive freedom, will repeal aca far against what the american people want. >> i hear you. senatr, let me get in a question, please. senator, when you questioned brett kavanaugh previously for an appointment, you asked him specifically about roe v. wade, and brett kavanaugh said that he believed that is binding precedent of the court, and he would follow that. it has been reaffirmed many times, so why do you believe that abortion rights in this country are under threat? >> binding -- when you say will follow binding precedent, that's been a trick. look what happened last week. justice roberts, justice gorsu

leo, what is the end game? what's this obsession with russia? what is it? what's the end game? what are you playing for? >> first of all, can i make a comment about russia? russia is way out there. al gore with grace and dignity accepted the 2000 election. regarding russia, donald trump does it.at f he should start inviting dan coats to the white house for more dinner. he's going to throw him under the bus. your friend, matt, who talked t about how president trump threw the intelligence under the bus,w mat got the memo. he realized his wife works at the white house. my point is simple. the russian meddling is real. both the democrats and thehe republicans realize that. finally, your colleague, trey gowdy, you know him, jason, he said the mueller probe is necessary. >> jason: now, leo, let's just make sure we get our facts straight. it was barack obama weeks before the election said that nobody was doing it. if they tried, they couldn't do it. was that true or not true? >> well, see, that's a good move, jason. i mentioned your trey gowdy. you go to the obama card. >> jason: we'r

an outside individual, leonard leo and colleagues at the federalist society, essentially made up thist. he needs to come in and talk about what he asked, what questions were asked, what the process was, how you qualified to get on that list. what promises were made to leonard leo who in turn then can communicate to the white house, yep, he's a good guy, don't worry about it. >> he was a candidate. mitch mcconnell folded up this paper, this was his cover after access hollywood for why he was going to vote for donald trump. >> we now know there is quite a bit of evidence tying leonard leo to a $1 million donation to the trump inaugural committee. is that the going price of a supreme court justice? >> charlie? >> i don't know what the connection there is, but keep in mind this is the least trumpian of the appointments we're seeing here because donald trump has outsourced this list to the federalist society and the letter to leo, which means you have -- they're very, very conservative. >> right. >> but i think you actually have a pretty solid list, but i do think the senate needs to ask v

he said leonard leo was a visionary. he figured out 20 years ago that conservatives had lost the culture war. abortion, gay rights, contraception, conservatives didn't have a chance if public opinion prevailed so they needed to stack the courts. >> that's right. that's exactly right. now, i would take a little exception with what zerlina said in that i don't think they need to promise everything in the 2018 election. the nominee, whoever it is, will be a conservative, we know that. we know they have been picked by the federalist society so they tick off a whole host of things. but i think what you referred to, the women's march is spot on. i think if you make one or two issues a priority in this midterm election, you will galvanize exactly who you need to galvanize if you're a democrat and want to take back the house, because we're going into moderate districts, swing districts. so i think if you start bringing up everything, that's not necessarily a strategy to win. and republicans will jump on that because it's the who
