it was sandra day o'connor who really insisted on all of the justices actively participating in going to lunch with each other. it is very, very hard and attest our fortitude to, at the end of a very emotional announcement of a case where we have been divided, there is a protocol which is we force ourselves to go to lunch. it forces us to remember that we may differ in whatever answer is to societal issue to a constitutional issue, but we are still people working together and breaking bread and understanding the differences are not something that should permanently alienate you, but something you should work on understanding each other better with and figuring out what you can do in the future. >> where are you going. >> i'm going over here. >> i'll get back to you before i go up. >> when you are with your colleagues and your forming these relationships, do you feel like you are settled in with them, like you know them really well? are you getting to know them? are they friends like your friends on the second circuit. >> that's a lot of questions. compound questions counselor. let me

when o'connor retired, kennedy became critical. for a while, he seemed to wait and sort of see how bad really a lot of the restrictions on abortion rights were. in the end he came down very firmly saying that what texas had done and there is in the case a year or so ago, what texas had done was in fact detrimental to the health of women and did not do what claimed to do which is help the health of women. i think he was quite clearly concerned that especially poor women have access to abortion. with him gone, i wouldn't guarantee that roe versus wade is reversed. but i would pretty much guarantee ta access to abortion would become rather difficult and that the deck would be stacked pretty much against women getting information that allows them to make choices about how to handle their reproductive health. >> that case which is the women's health case which struck down a suite of texas loss restrictions on clinics in 2016. he's part of a 5-3 majority. the big one that is the post-rowe holding that preserves rowe is casey in 1992 wher

alito's nomination in 2005 going into 2006 to ultimately succeed sandra day o'connor, i think all of us remember what happened first is that george w. bush nominated harriet miers and the base went crazy saying, first of all, she doesn't have the constitutional law chops, but also we cannot count on her to vote the way we want a new justice to vote. and there was such an uproar that she withdrew and that is how sam alito got the spot. and you know, for those of us who have been aaeeen around ever than that, the mantra used to be no more suitor, as in no more david suitors. >> okay. i appreciate the geek out at the supreme court today. thank you all so much. >> i resemble that remark. >> thank you guys so much. >>> quick break. the other big news of the day, the president essentially just confirming a new summit with an american adversary. ♪ i thought i was managing my moderate to severe crohn's disease. then i realized something was missing... me. my symptoms were keeping me from being there. so, i talked to my doctor and learned humira is for people who still have symptoms of crohn'

and then sandra day o'connor, who was a swing vote on the court.s planning to retire after president clinton left office. her president was horrified at the prospect of leaving under an al gore presidency. she retired under george w. bush but criticized her replacement sam alito for being too conservative. and then the evolving justices, david sutor and john paul stephens. they shifted to the left and the court shifted right. so they were among the liberal vote. so post departed under president obama allowing him to appoint justices that would maintain their legacy. and then the other side of the spectrum. justice byron white, a democrat appointed by john f. kennedy. but over the years, he moved away from democrats on key issues like abortion and justice white still choice to retire under bill clinton. and ruth bader ginsberg, the oldest justice said that liberals were misguided if they thought that she was going to step down under president obama so he could replace her with someone with a similar idealogical bent. but of course, replacements don'

and he didn't know it about sandra day o'connor either.he pro-life people are harshly critical of their hero, ronald reagan for picturing two people who single-handedly saved roe v. wade in a case called casey vs. planned parenthood which they and justice david souter wrote a very unique and bizarre opinion called the joint opinion. it wasn't signed by any of the three of them. they wrote it in justice o'connor's living room. a lot of crazy antidotal stories about it. it saved abortion. scalia and company thought they the votes to overturn roe v. wade. ainsley: the president says he is definitely picking someone from that list of 25. judge: darn it. ainsley: i actually thought that yesterday. i looked to see if your name was up there. what can you tell us? judge: judge hardiman is a very, very good friend, ally and protege of the president's sister. they sat on the united states court of appeals for the third circuit where justice alito sat when he was on the bench. steve: wasn't he the runner-up last time? >> judge caven bret cavanaugh ou

for his conservative credentials, he's been the swing justice for 12 years, ever since sandra day o'connor retired. when kennedy voted with the four conservative justices, the court upheld the trump el corporate money in politics. when he voted with the four liberals, the court cut back on the death penalty and declared detainees at guantanamo bay have legal rights. and limited state crackdowns on immigrants. in one of the most influential actions, he wrote the landmark 2015 decision that struck down bans on same-sex marriage after writing a series of rulings on gay rights. a trump replacement for justice kennedy would give the court a solid five-vote conservative majority. the president's choice is sure to be far more conservative than kennedy as the first trump nominee neil gorsuch has been in his first year on the court. a kennedy departure could put abortion rights in doubt although he voted for a ban on partial birth abortion, he has consistently supported it. the trump nominee would probably oppose it. anthony kennedy turns 82 next month and is the court's second oldest justice, ruth

he took over that position from sandra day o'connor. he had been first in the 9th, the 99th as it's known on the left coast and appointed to the 9th circuit by gerald ford and went onto the supreme court. the expectation that we've heard in the last few minutes as the news has broken that the president will appoint someone very conservative in their interpretation of the constitution, as you heard, of course, from alan dershowitz. his concern is you run the risk of someone who is partisan as opposed to just legal. back with misty marris on set. i point out we're all human in the end of the day, in the best possible scenario, we're talking about the most prestigious jobs really in the world. the interpretation of the u.s. constitution in upholding everything that we stand for as americans, big responsibility. very, very big responsibility, and dershowitz's advice is to find someone true to their intellect as opposed to their political heart. i feel that though, this should be the prerequisite and i wish that every judge had that in their

i remember working in the white house june 30, 2005 from sonda day o'connor. that allowed for chief justice roberts, his nomination to take place. it was seismic. justice kennedy gave decades of his life to public service. we should be grateful for that service. you're right. now that he's made this decision, the strategy and the politics are huge especially coming on the heels of these two big decisions over this past week, three, i guess i should say, where the president feels like having neil gorsuch on the court was a key for his administration. shannon, i want to bring in chad pergram that we talked to about the immigration bill. that just failed a few minutes ago. this news will supersede that. chad, at this point, from my experience, now all eyes will focus on this nomination. the democrats will be riled up. there might not be anything they can do to stop the republicans from getting their pick seated on the court. your thoughts. >> two people are in the driver's seat. mitch mcconnell and the chairman of the judiciary committee, chuck grassley. keep in

wade scare tactic since 1982 when sandra o'connor was nominated. over 30 years later, nothing's happened to roe v. wade. >> shannon: what do you think, pastor? >> well, i think eventually conservative court will either overturn roe v. wade or at least greatly diminish its importance and its power. here's why, shannon. in 1857, the dred scott decision said african-americans were nothing but property to be bought and sold. thankfully that was overturned. roe v. wade is really the dred scott decision of the 20th century. it said children in the womb were not people. they were just biological blobs with no rights. i think you're going to see that overturned. and this is what a conservative court does. in a liberal court, the liberal court creates imaginary rights for some people while erasing real rights of other people. there is no right to abortion in the constitution but there is a right to life. and i think a conservative court eventually will see that. >> shannon: you know you're going to give a lot a people hives tonight saying stuff like that. c

arteries, one of our is sandra day o'connor. she considers herself a cowgirl. she was born in texas and race on a ranch. wrote a bookrother about the ranch. the lazy b is the brand they used on their ranch and we have a sample here. it is called lazy because this is the be as it stands up right. lazy is when it lays down. they had close to 200,000 acres on this ranch. she talks about how her ranch when she wenther to the united states supreme court. she was the first female ever appointed to the court. appointed by president ronald reagan. all-maleost a 200 year supreme court when she was appointed, i'm sorry confirmed. somewas not without controversy in 1981. at that time, women's roles were changing a bit and not everyone was on board. there were some political who took a look at what culture and pop culture was saying about this. of course you had some very conservative religious groups that thought that a female should not be serving in this capacity. others like one of the cartoons we have here from 1981 thought it was really great and highlighted that thi

ever since justice son dwra day o sandra day o'connor retired, we've had these two pretty solid four justice blocks of conservatives on the one side, progressives on the other. and justice can endy the clkenn closest to either side. sometimes he would side with the progressives. that is how we got the decision that held that there was a constitutional right to same-sex marria marriage. oftentimes he would side with the conservatives especially not just yesterday, but this term. i mean of the court's 19 5-4 decisions this term, 14 of them were the conservative majority and justice kennedy didn't join the left in a single one of those. so i think from his perspective, he had done his work. he had accomplished what he set out to do and it was time to clear the way for a younger perhaps more energetic successor. >> steve, stay with me. i want to pivot back to kaitlan collins at the white house. what do you have now? >> reporter: we don't have the tape yet of president trump speaking, but we do have comments from what he said from those reporters who are inside the oval office right now a

thought about it because i was originally nominated to be an associate justice to take justice o'connor's place. i think there is something to that, yes. is an individual thing. among my colleagues, some people like to, don't like to dissent. but if they have a different view they feel there an obligation to express that. others don't necessarily feel and if it is an arcane statutory interpretation question that doesn't involve any principles or his steps -- statutory interpretation, if it's eight to one and everybody don't feel any great need to explain to people why you think it should be six. human sort of sublimate your views. as the chief justice, i feel some obligation to be something of an honest broker among my colleagues and i don't necessarily go out of my way to pick fights. like everybody else, there have been many cases where i have been a lone dissenter because i felt strongly that some particular issue was important. i feel it obligation to explain that in those situations. it may be just more an individual preference and i have some colleagues who are more ready to write a

justice kennedy, ever since sandra day o'connor retired in 2006, justice kennedy has, in essence, been the swing vote, the deciding vote on the supreme court. when he voted with the conservatives, the court, for example, gutted the voting rights act, upheld the citizens united which allowed more corporate and union money in politics, gave new life to the second amendment and the right to own a gun. on the other hand, when justice kennedy voted with the liberals, they trimmed back the reach of the death penalty saying it didn't apply, for example, to juveniles. they gave civil rights to -- or rather legal rights to prisoners in guantanamo bay. and perhaps, most importantly, have been justice kennedy's decisions on gay rights, wouldn't you say. >> no question, that will go down in history as a monumental change in how our society operated, the recognition of rights for same-sex couples, for example, and just the movement away from discrimination against homosexuals has really been a big part of his jurisprudence about individuality. on one hand justice kennedy said i'm going to be agains
