senator from arizona, mark kelly. he's a member of the joint committee as well as the select committee on intelligence. senator, good to see you. thanks for joining us this morning. one of the reasons why arizona continues to be a critical swing state is because arizonans are directly affected by so many of the top issues in the election this year. if a border state, you got a 15 week abortion ban in effect this year, but prop 139 and an abortion vote to enshrine abortion votes. it's a state were donald trump selection to nihilism really took hold, and it's a state where people are concerned about the economy. i would love to know what kind of conversations you're having with people as election day approaches. >> yeah, it's about those issues . this abortion ban, if the one we have today. we had an 1864 abortion ban for a while given to arizona women from donald trump. i mean, he talked about how he broke roe v wade. that's why we wound up with that 1864 ban. now we have a 15 week band with no it options. it is harming women in our state significantly. they are having to flee to other states to get the reproductive care they need. you also mentioned

we saw misinformation and disinformation being used in 2016, 2020, no surprise that it's happening now, but according to the senate intelligence committee it's now been supercharged, the with a.i., foreign actors being used a.i. the way the federal government handles this, too, is different. robocall went out to primary voters, purported to be joe biden. officials said that call was fake. the federal government didn't get involved because that was an american citizen who was responsible for that a.i.robocall. last week a video went around showing people purportedly ripping up mail-in ballots that came from a russian disinformation. announcement from the cybersecurity agency saying this is fake and i's part of a russia disinformation campaign. i talked to the head of the cybersecurity agency yesterday, she said you should look to your state and local officials because there are some things that federal government doesn't want to get involved. >>> join us for complete decision 2024 on election night, tuesday, special coverage begins at 5:00 p.m., 2:00 p.m. pacific, on nbc news now, it picks up on your local nbc station at 4:00 p.m. pacifi

he's a democratic key member of the senate the intelligence committees well-briefed on what's going on, senator, thanks so much for joining us you know, despite biden's push for a ceasefire, prime minister netanyahu says the war will continue considering that netanyahu has repeatedly defied us policy has the u.s. lost its ability to persuade him to change course for the united states to continue to push for a mutual ceasefire and a push for release of the hostages sinwar has been an incredible, as you know, wolf obstacle to peace for decades and decades and decades. >> he was the mastermind behind the october 7, seventh attack on israel that resulted in the killing of 1,200 israelis in kidnapping of hundreds of hostages, including americans. and i think this is a very good day for israel, for the united states of america but i think it's very important for the u.s. to stand for the principle that once this war is finished, we needed, we needed two-state objective in this region. and we are very well situated, i think to be in important negotiator between israel and the palestinians to try to achieve a brighter future for the

us into the middle of next week. >> kristen. very you. okay. up next, your voice, your vote andw big of a threat is misinforma mark warner, who's chair of the senate intelligence committee, spoke earlier today about the al the internet doesn't mean it's true. somebods got a secret sauce on how we can make that take place or how we get americans to less be willing to believe in conspiracy theories. you could do the country in the world a great service, but i don't to glal election interference than it was in 2020. that's ind and the interference comes as early voting is in full swing in nearly every state. today, former president trump and their surrogates are stumping for votes in seven key swing states, as they will likely do from now until election day. day of eary in-person voting in battleground barack obama to bolster support for the top of the ticket. >> our team is r is off the campaign trail today, instead sitting down for two televion attacks about her intelligence. >> i think she's grossly incompetent her name is harris.o the hell is ha their ballots. >> of course, we won't know for another couple of weeks who people actually voted for, but we into the early v

us to bring the intelligence agency into the american government. the church committee led that dramatic change. henceforth, there would be senate and house intelligence committees, along with new laws, to back up our expectations. a new tone was set in washington, dc and u.s. senate historian kate scott final word on the church committee. nearly 50 years later. well, i think that we the the government has been structured in such a way after the church committee investigation, so as to prevent those types of government wide abuses in the future. but i think as with any as with any program in the government, that congressional oversight is always important and always ongoing. and we may not something may not raise rise to the level of a church committee investigation or a watergate investigation. but that doesn't mean that that congressional oversig isn't happening quietly behind the scenes. kate scott finally, what what was your path to becoming the senate historian? hmm. well, i i'm a politics and history geek. i a ph.d. in us political history. and when i finished my ph.d., i began teaching. i had a visiting teaching gig out i

at such a sensitive moment in us israeli relations has been really alarming and we've now seen the top republican and the top democrat from the senate intelligence committee just yesterday, firing off a letter to fbi director chris wray insisting that he quote, act swiftly in the investigation and take immediate action to hold each individual involved fully accountable. kate and fbi investigation continues very clearly. >> great to see you, katie bo, thank you very much for your reporting. john all right. >> here's a quote what the eff to do with them new released audio revealing that russian troops are less than thrilled about north korean soldiers joining their ranks celebrities, athletes, and world leaders, but i've always felt most comfortable up here with the folks that made me who i had i'm, right, at home here on the land and i'm in my lane on the shoulder of the interstate because this is where i come from. >> have been showing up here for nearly 200 years. >> and i can't wait to see what's next. that's off to the feature nothing runs, so i could do have you compared your medicare plan recently with ehealth you can compare medicare plans side-by-s
