but watching that interview, it seems very likely to me that tommy tuberville, senator tommy tubervillet ivf is, clearly. maybe someone on his staff explained it to him after that debacle, because he has since come out in support of ivf. but to be fair, he isn't the only one who seems very confused. senator tim scott said he had not studied the issue. i mean, does it really require a study, senator scott? at first, nikki haley said flat out, embryos are babies. and then she said, well, i didn't say i agree with the alabama ruling. and then in her third try she said, i think that the court was doing it based on the law, and i think alabama needs to go back and look at the law. not to be a done, of course, how speaker mike johnson says he supports ivf, calling it a blessing for many moms and dads who have struggled with fertility. sounds good. however, it is completely berserk at best because he is currently a co-sponsor of a fetal personhood bill, which just like the alabama ruling, gives fertilized eggs legal protection without -- ivf treatments. basically, to sum this all of, he has pr

alabama senator tommy tuberville made a proposal not to give kiev a single cent from american taxpayerscolleague james vance said democrats want to lay the ukraine funding bill as a trap for trump if he is re-elected. according to the document, kiev will receive part of the money until january 20, 2025. if donald, after returning to the white house, tries to stop the war. it was a pretty big bipartisan relief package that just passed the senate and has support. ultimately, 77 senators voted for the bill. today we witnessed one of the most historic and important bills ever passed by the senate. of course, it has been years, perhaps decades, since the senate passed a bill that has so much impact on more than just our national security. passed with strong bipartisan support. although the bill passed, it a difficult fate awaits. house republicans ideologically aligned with trump are very skeptical about helping ukraine in its war against russia. both houses must pass the bill for it to become law. mike johnson said yesterday that he would not advance this bill in the house of representative

we heard ron johnson yesterday offering praise for vladimir putin, and now republican center, tommy tubervillen. >> and blaming the united states for russia's war against ukraine. in a radio interview yesterday, tuberville pointed a finger at america and expressed sympathy for russian president, vladimir putin. >> we forced this issue, we kept forcing nato all the way to eastern europe, and putin just got tired of it and said, listen, i do not want missiles on my border from the united states of america, and it would be like russia coming to mexico and putting missiles on the border, and what really rung a bell is the propaganda media machine over here, they sell anything they can to go after russia. they can't win. it's not going to happen. somebody needs to negotiate. trump will have it over with in a matter of weeks. >> putin is on top of his game, says united states senator, tommy tuberville of alabama. talking about the dictator that launched an unprovoked war against ukraine -- >> recently killed an entire family in their home. what is he talking about? >> what do you do with that? >> th

. >> alabama senator, tommy tuberville, also reacting. >> do you agree with the supreme court decision or not? >> i have to look at what they are agreeing to, and not agreeing to. i've haven't seen it. >> with that, let's get smarter with the help of our lead off panel tonight, my dear, dear friend, nbc's managing washington editor carol lee is here. i'm so happy, i didn't know she was going to be in new york. peter baker joins us, chief white house correspondent for the new york times, and former u.s. attorney, joyce vance, who spent 25 years since a federal prosecutor. carol, since i'm so happy to see you, you must go first. let's start with south carolina, what are you watching for? >> look, obviously, when nikki haley does after south carolina is what everybody is going to be watching for. she sent a bit of mixed singles signals about this. she gave the state of the race speech this week where she said she isn't for the long haul. and she walked it back, said look, we are going to south carolina, michigan, and then we are going to continue on just super tuesday, we haven't really t

republicans -- i don't think senator tommy tuberville knew what ivf was when he was asked yesterday. >> he said he has not looked at the bill, and there isn't one. >> the bigger issue is that republicans are creating a generational divide with men and women across the country. that is going to be difficult, if not impossible, to heal. i spent a lot of time not just talking about politics with young people, but talking about what their lives are. the number of young people, women and men, in places like florida and texas, that i see on a regular basis site who say they love their hometown, love their job, love their family, but you know what? they might get pregnant one day and want to start a family, yo therefore they have to pull up their roots and move to a less red state. it is something that has a much greater effect than even beyond thinking about the election. >> beyond the abortion issue, there is more and more reporting that donald trump is aligning himself with christian nationalists. for a long time, church and state were separated. that seems to be blurring as well. >> i t

here it was republican senator tommy tuberville parroting putin's talking points just this week. >> youl putin on top of his game. one thing he said, it really run a bell, is the propaganda media machine over here. that is so anything they possibly can to go after russia. the republican party has come to worship strong men at a time when strongmen around the world are feeling quite emboldened. and now with what looks like a price in a tent by putin to silence his rivals, how should america respond? i'll talk about that with a longtime friend of alexei navalny, former russian ambassador michael met fall next. fall next. fiber gels to trap and remove the waste that weighs you down... so you can lighten every day the metamucil way. only sleep number smart beds let you each choose your individual firmness and comfort. your sleep number setting. and actively cools and warms up to 13 degrees on either side. now, save 50% on the sleep number limited edition smart bed. plus, free home delivery when you add any base. ends presidents day. only at sleep number. why choose a sleep number smart bed?

i want to add that senator tommy tuberville, whose position was unclear for a couple days, but he madeve of ivf. he expects everything will be okay. signs are pointing there will be a legislative fix. that doesn't take away from the women who will never forget that the government told they they couldn't have ivf. there will be lasting political consequences, emotional consequences to what happened and what's playing out. >> erin, we thought this would be replicated in other red states. at this point, because donald trump has made it clear after studying and looking at the reaction to it, that he is against it and someone like tuberville, who didn't know what he was talking about, is against it, do you think that there is now no legal peril that this will spread? >> i think what we are seeing is once again republicans underestimating the real impact, the human impact that this is having on the ground with people who also are voters and who are again and again making their voices heard on this issue at the ballot box. it is important to remember mind people watching that this is the firs

to do this week in addition to marking national women's and girls and sports gave, support to tommy tubervilleeg stube, to bring a bill which would prevent biological males from competing in amateur or olympic sports. olympic, unless they changed it, transgender individuals can compete in the sport they identify with, but they had to have transitioned before puberty. does that work for you, or not? >> so, that's the case with some sports. the olympics has the ioc, created a framework and this framework, very explicitly says you cannot presume males have advantage over females. they say any male advantage is perceived, unverified and alleged. and until it's proven through evidence that men do in fact possess advantage, athletic advantage over women, then we can't discriminate. >> john: i have 12-year-old twins, girl and a boy, the boy is shorter than his sister but markedly stronger. he can leg press 200 pounds and she can maybe do 40. but they are not gone through puberty yet. >> exactly. the frame works the olympics has done, abomination, but the leadership of representative stube and tubervi

who would overturn the protections of roe v wade, republican, alabama senator tommy tuberville supports the decision about just right thing to do but says it is a complicated families from being able use we people have an opportunity and missouri republican senator eric schmitt says it ought to be up to the because this should be in those sort of the the political discussion about what voters want to see in washington. raquel martin. >> for your health and you are accused of snoring, you might want to consider cutting back on how much each you ate because there's a new study australia. it found people who mostly eat plant-based diets, things like whole grains and fruits. they are less likely to suffer from sleep apnea. that study involved more than 14,000 people. researchers say the people who little or no meat were 19% less likely to snore, even more so than men. more studies are needed. but researchers believe that plant-based foods reduced inflammation and obesity and that because a snort. the fda is warning people against relying on smart watches to monitor blood glucose levels. it

top of his game, sends football coach turns united states senator, and apparent putin fanboy tommy tubervilles week, house republicans also officially spiked a bill that would have provided billions of dollars in funding for ukraine, at a time when russia is gaining ground so just to recap, you've got donald trump encouraging russia to do whatever the hell they want. you've got a united states senator praising putin for being on top of his game. and we've got house republicans choking off crucial aid to the country russia invaded. oh, and i almost forgot. we've also got one of the most popular right-wing media personalities in the country, parading around like moscow like some sort of deranged brand ambassador. >> how does russia, a country we are told is a gas station with nuclear weapons, have a subway station that norman people used to get to work and home every single day, that's nicer than anything in our country? >> all right here we go. so i guess you put in ten noodles here, and you get it back to, when you put the cart back. >> so it's free, but there's an incentive to return it, and

tommy tuberville, you got to protect yourself and we cannot protect everyone. these are people, marco rubio in particular was very much known as a foreign-policy buff. at one point he basically said that trump was a con man and he did warn how dangerous it will be donald trump was entrusted with the office of commander-in- chief. now basically saying i am defending donald trump in his comments around how we should deal with our nato allies. how dangerous is this when you think about this is a man who is doggedly in pursuit of the white house again and intends to stack it with his loyalist? >> this is why right now the conversation all around the globe and capitals and her allies to this country are very concerned about what a donald trump presidency sequel would look like and what it would mean for them. particularly at a time where we are seeing so much conflict whether it is the east, ukraine or russia. not that long ago i did an informal briefing with a number of ambassadors to european union states. the one question they had learned this really happen? is i
